About Halims Indian Taj Restaurant

Paddington regulars know the drill—skip the formality, rock up in shorts, and settle in for heavy-hitting Indian comfort food. Halims deals in honest cooking rather than dining-room polish. Plates land stacked with family-sized portions: tender chicken biryani, charred tandoori chicken, and rich butter chicken tailored to your spice tolerance. Diners often order extra rounds of the soft, blistered naan just to mop up curries at home later. The kitchen stays open until 10 PM, sending out certified Halal feeds with complimentary pakoras at the start of the meal.

  • Take-Home Naan: Guests frequently order extra rounds of blistered garlic and plain naan to take home and mop up tomorrow's curries.
  • Late-Night Halal Feasts: Open until 10 PM, dishing up oversized, shareable Halal portions like spiced chicken biryani and butter chicken.
  • Complimentary Pakoras: Tables often start with a complimentary plate of vegetable pakoras straight from the fryer.
