Southampton
Poppadom Express

Located in the heart of Southampton, Poppadom Express is comfortable, contemporary and chic. Cleverly designed, this 190-seater restaurant provides the best of both worlds; it offers congenial dining to small groups, yet lends itself to executive and large corporate events as well.

From the main restaurant you have a view of the grand kitchen, as the master chef flames the butter to spice up tarka dal, and can watch the hot naan and chicken tikka emerging from the tandoor. Or you can enjoy more intimate dining in a quiet area around the corner.

Their classic Indian cuisine is made with the finest, most wholesome ingredients sourced locally whenever possible. Tangy and tasty, the spices are freshly ground and carefully combined to titillate the senses, accentuating the natural food flavourings.

Nominated as one of the best Indian restaurants in the UK, Poppadom Express caters for the discerning palate. A team of specialist regional chefs carefully recreate ancient and authentic dishes as enjoyed by the civilisation that treated sensual enjoyment as the highest form of artistic expression.

Flavoursome dishes delight both vegetarians and nonvegetarians alike. Try plump, creamy pieces of Indian cheese marinated in tangy pickle and seared in the tandoor, or sesame seed coated king prawns dipped in ginger, garlic and lime marinade and served with a sweet chilli dip. So delicious, it’s no wonder maharajahs chose to eat with their fingers.

The impressive drinks menu offers the perfect bottle of wine to accompany your meal as well as a selection of chilled beers. They pride themselves on the most varied non-alcoholic choice of drinks around and a variety of innovative and delicious cocktails.

This is possibly the best Indian restaurant outside India.
