Great menu, with outstanding value for money!! My favorite dish is the Mix Grill and no other restaurant that i have been to can beat the quality and taste of food that Shimla Mirch cook up.It is a very friendly environment which would be ideal for group parties or romantic evenings out. The staff are very polite and attentive and it is a fabulous dinning experience from beginning to end.

Le Cinnamon is fantastic; I've been there several times, with my boyfriend, with our friends, for my birthday, and loved it every time.
The food always tastes great (I particularly love the lamb specialities) and the staff are always very warm and friendly.
The prices are average, which is fine considering the tasteless slop I've paid for at other places nearby. Le Cinnamon is easily the best curry place in west London
(Also, never go to the Red Onion on Hammersmith Road - what we had was way too hot, but didn't actually taste of anything.)

I went with my boyfriend last week and we loved everything that we ordered. I wouldn't have minded the portions being a little larger but other than that, the food was delicious and the waiter was wonderful. I had a coupon for 20% off the bill which was great since the Le Cinnamon isn't the cheapest of Indian restaurants. All in all, a wonderful evening. I would defiantly go back with a few friends and another coupon for 20% off (which I already have).

I have had a few deliveries from Le Cinnamon, but I won't be ordering from them again.
Having not had a take away from them for a while I had forgotten how incredibly small the portions are. My paneer main course dish was certainly not a main dish portion by any standards.
It just seems plain rude to me to be so tight with portions when I'm paying a lot of money for them. Daal is not expensive, yet my side order was so small - it looked pitiful in this container that was about a quarter full.
On top of that, the order took a long time to be delivered, and wasn't particularly warm. It was also not the best quality I've had from them either.
Previously when I have ordered from Le Cinnamon, I thought the food was very good.
Today, I wasn't overly impressed by the quality, and it certainly didn't make up for the ridiculous portions which seem to be getting smaller and smaller.
There are many better options. Le Cinnamon has certainly lost my custom, which is a pity for them because I do tend to order curries on a regular basis!

It was Saturday night and a curry was the in order. I was running a 10K in the morning so no beer for a change. It was a filthy night so we jumped in the car and drove down to Shepherds Bush Road for a meal at "Le Cinnamon". My sister lives near here so we had been before and knew it was one of the better local indians around. The restaurant was quiet but we were warmly welcomed by the manager. He told the weather had resulted in loads of takeaway orders so his waiting staff were out delivering. The restaurant filled up after we arrived yet he still managed to look after everyone by himself, great service. The Poppadoms, dips and starters were excellent. Really flavoursome especially being washed down with a fresh mango lassi. The mains were less good, my wife had a chicken korma-esque curry which was very nice. I was however doing a 10K race in the morning so opted for tandoori lamb chops which were very tough indeed. Not great but possibly I should have gone for a curry. The naan was lovely. Only one choice of desert but it was fresh lychee, which was superb.
Main apart this is a very nice restaurant run by very nice people who take pride. I will definetly pop back but avoid the lamb chops.
