Khan's is the business if you're after a solid, inexpensive and familiar Indian meal.
Gastronomy it ain't.
This restaurant, in busy Westbourne Grove, is a long-standing favourite with students and budget-wary locals who know that the curries here may be the staples of a thousand menus across Britain, but that they're fresh, well cooked and generously portioned.
Just don't expect a restful evening.
Tables are turned in a trice, service is perfunctory (this isn't a place to dally over the menu), and it's really noisy.
Try to get a table in the vast, booming ground floor, where blue murals stretch up to the high ceilings - it feels a bit like dining in an enormous municipal swimming pool.
There are some tasty breads on offer.
Try the nan-e-mughziat, a coconut-flavoured affair with nuts and sultanas, or the paneer kulcha, bulging with cottage cheese and mashed potatoes.
You might also kick off with half a tandoori chicken, which is moist and well cooked, or a creditable chicken tikka.
For main dishes, all those curry house favourites are listed here - meat Madras or vindalu; prawn biryani; chicken chilli masala; king prawn curry - and they all taste unusually fresh.
Especially good is the butter chicken, while for lovers of tikka masala dishes, the chicken tikka masala will appeal.
There's a typical array of vegetable dishes, too: bhindi, sag aloo, vegetable curry.
Desserts include kulfi and various ice creams from H?agen Dazs.
Then, just when you think that Khan's is an unreconstructed curry house, you spot the heart symbols on the menu - they are positioned beside 'low fat' dishes.
