***For large table booking above 4 guests kindly call the restaurant phone number, bookings above 4 guests require deposit****

Originating from Kolkata, this unique cuisine was invented when the Hakka people migrated to India from the Chinese province of Canton, bringing with them their culinary treasures. Incorporating traditional Chinese cooking techniques with the spices of India to create something both new yet familiar, Indo Chinese is now an integral part of Indian cuisine.

Playfully named Fatt Pundit it’s a combination of the common Chinese surname ‘Fatt’ with the Indian word ‘Pundit’ (a scholar).

Food was nice, but not exceptional. I found it impossible to modify my booking, despite numerous attempts to call and change the time online, but received a rather sarcastic response from the member of staff who greeted us when I informed him about this.

This was such a fantastic restaurant. Our waitress Ruby was so helpful and gave some recommendations. We never had food like this. The duck was amazing but the prawn starter was to die for. Great atmosphere too.

The food was very delicious but the waiter left us unattended quite a lot, we waited for our plates to be cleared for about 20 minutes and had to stop our waiter walking by to ask for the dessert menu. Overall glad we tried it and enjoyed the food and cocktails.

Good food but not great service. It feels like they want to rush you out. When we arrived - told that we had to order all food as soon as possible, we were not allowed to order a few dishes and "see how we get on". Felt forced to order more than less so we weren't left hungry. On finishing our meal - we asked for some chai and no desert. The bill was presented to us before we even received our tea, they seemed desperate to get us out so they could turn the table over. The minute I opened the bill, someone rushed over with the card machine, they were watching and waiting for us to be ready to pay. There was a hair found in our food, they were quick to deal with the issue, very apologetic and dealt with it really well. Food was tasty, portions a good size. Seating felt a bit squashed, fair amount of noise but nothing more than you would expect from a popular restaurant in covent garden.
