Standard Balti House is an established Indian and Bangladeshi restaurant at 71 Brick Lane. The business began in 1989 and moved to its present Brick Lane premises in 1995, giving it more than three decades of connection to the area’s curry house tradition.
The kitchen combines familiar Indian restaurant dishes with Bangladeshi and Sylheti influences. Slow cooked curries use layered spices, while seafood, lamb, chicken and vegetarian ingredients appear across the selection.
Balti dishes are a speciality, with chicken, lamb, prawns, fish and vegetables available in different combinations. Tandoori grills, aromatic biryanis, vegetable side dishes and naan baked to order provide further ways to build a meal.
Guests can eat inside the restaurant or order food for collection. Standard Balti House opens seven days a week and welcomes private parties and large group bookings as well as couples, families and visitors exploring Brick Lane.
Address: 71 Brick Lane, London E1 6QL, United Kingdom
