Young man Adam was excellent in his service. He poured tea into your tea cups and was very polite and attentive.

✨ Thirty-one years strong and still authentic 🇮🇳, this local gem delivers rich, aromatic curries 🍛 that honour traditional flavours and craftsmanship 👨‍🍳. The spice balance 🌶️ feels thoughtful, not overpowering, while the setting remains warm and unpretentious 🕯️. Whether you’re in for chicken tikka 🍗 or a vegetarian korma 🥦, it’s true Indian comfort at its best!!

We ordered the signature Curry Chicken Kapitan and Char Kway Teow (both highlighted with the chef hat sign), and they were outstanding. The Curry Chicken Kapitan featured a rich, aromatic sauce with tender chicken pieces, slow-cooked in spices, lemongrass, and coconut — perfect with steamed rice. The Char Kway Teow was smoky, flavorful, and well-balanced with prawns, squid, and bean sprouts, showcasing great wok-hei. A truly satisfying meal and definitely a place I’d recommend coming back to.

The food at La Chanh is very tasty, and I love that they offer great vegan and vegetarian options. The staff is super friendly and welcoming, making the whole experience even better. The place is clean and quiet, so it’s easy to have a conversation and enjoy your meal comfortably. Highly recommended!

We were so pleased to see our favourite casual Vietnamese restaurant is open again after a fire caused the temporary closure. The food is still as good as ever. It’s so fresh and tasty. The staff are very friendly. We will be back soon to support this small family run business.
