Dishoom
Indian dining sensation Dishoom now has a few locations in the capital, and the one in King's Cross is as good as any.

So it's probably a bit unsurprising, with food this good, that Dishoom sees long queues in the evening, which is more of a reason to taste one of the best restaurants in Kings Cross on your lunch break instead.
