GoogleWe had an absolutely fantastic evening at the Permit Room in Cambridge. From start to finish, everything was exceptional. We began with the aloo tikki chaat, which was bursting with flavour—perfectly balanced, vibrant, and beautifully presented. For mains, we enjoyed the lamb chettinad and the classic Dishoom chicken ruby, paired with fluffy rice and warm, fresh naan. Every dish was rich, aromatic, and cooked to perfection. What truly elevated the experience was the top-tier service. Mihal looked after us brilliantly—attentive, friendly, and genuinely passionate about ensuring guests have a great time. As a lovely finishing touch, he even gifted us a Dishoom/Permit Room key ring, which made the evening feel even more special. Amazing food, impeccable service, and a wonderful atmosphere. Highly recommend—can’t wait to return!
