Editorial Review for Hema's Kitchen – by Citysearch Editors
In Short
This tight, but comfortable, space is known for its friendly, ebullient service and tasty Indian and Pakastani fare. Juicy tandoori chicken marinated in a bath of spices is a good start. Among entrees, popular choices include creamy tikka masala (boneless chicken in gravy) and buttery, pan-roasted aloo jeera (potatoes with onions, peppers and cumin). Everything tastes better with sides of paratha (grilled wheat bread) and rice to soak up spices.

The food is terrific here and unbelievably spicy. I can usually handle the heat, but Hema's is outrageous. Good thing it's BYOB, since you'll need plenty of beverages (and there's an Indian liquor store right around the corner). The atmosphere is real homey and the service is, too. So feel free to ask about the various dishes and then share everything.

Absolutely fantastic! Not for the faint of heart when it comes to the spice index, but this surpasses any Indian food I have encountered... including all that London had to offer!
