Kadiri’s is a family restaurant at 26 High Road in Willesden with more than four decades of history in North West London. Its cooking brings together Indian Mughlai traditions and East African influences, reflecting the family’s ancestry and the food culture that has shaped the restaurant since 1974.
Biryani is the house speciality and remains central to Kadiri’s reputation. Fragrant basmati rice is layered with saffron, a richly spiced filling and crispy fried onions, allowing the aromas of the herbs and spices to develop while the meat or vegetables cook into the rice.
The wider menu moves through Indian street food, tandoor cooking, curries and rice dishes. Chicken tikka masala, butter chicken, rogan josh and korma sit alongside family recipes, vegetable choices and preparations that carry the chilli, spice and savoury character of East African cooking.
Traditional desserts and drinks complete the meal, while the restaurant also supports takeaway, catering and larger celebrations. That range has helped Kadiri’s remain both a neighbourhood dining room and a specialist event kitchen, with the same emphasis on freshly prepared food, generous flavour and family knowledge.
Address: 26 High Road, Willesden, London NW10 2QD, United Kingdom
