Allowed Kaesavan to recommend our meal - it was all truly delicious. The chicken tikka was a revelation - who knew that’s how it’s meant to taste! And the wheat milk dessert was amazing. We will be back!

When you look at the menu you see prices here are at a minimum twice higher than restaurants in the same neighborhood…but it’s a Bib Michelin…so you expect a memorable experience with lots of extras and superior service… Disappointment is high…nothing memorable aside from the...bill S$122 for 4 tiny portions as main courses + 4 cheese nans and 4 drinks… Michelin you must have been out of your mind… We left still hungry and angry for being such fools: value is not worth the price…pass your way there are plenty of better experiences in Little IndiaMore

We had the best dinner experience here. I had eaten here back in 2015, and enjoyed it. Upon returning there today, I had the same meal (The butter chicken) and found that it still is the best I have ever had. If you do make...it to Singapore, you MUST try the Lagnaa barefoot restaurant, and try it for yourselves. It's not only the food that you'll fall in love with, the staff truly do make you feel welcome and will do their very best to ensure you feel comfortable, and fully enjoy the meal. I cant recommend this restaurant enough! If I could give it 10 stars, I would. A big pat on the back goes to Kaesavan and his staff for a truly marvellous experience! Can't wait to go back there.More

Lousy ambience. Tastless and frugal quantity food. Very stingy with extras even a spoon of extra pickles or chhutney. Not real Ibdian taste. Felt totally frustrated.

Masterchef Kaesavan and Curry Mummy Kumaarrie were spectacular hosts, welcoming, friendly and helpful. Lagnaa is different, interesting even attractively quirky. Flavours and quality were both excellent, with arusuvai hitting the spot. Deserves its praise.

Pictures look cool , I usually have the skill to identify good places, this time it wasn't wrong but very disappointing. Hospitality was welcoming , place has cool design , the idea of the spiciness challenge is nice but , I came to eat and...the dishes were tiny ones and over priced . I paid 100 SGD for solo lunch. I think that for this price you can have lunch for four just around the corner. Maybe the price is not for the food but for logo ...More

We ordered the Michelin Set dinner for 2. There are 3 options- we got the largest and were so glad. Six dishes - and not huge portions so this is a good choice for 2 diners. Each dish was a mouthful of delightfully , nuanced,...deftly seasoned Indian food representing cuisines from different parts of India (as explained to us by the delightful and attentive hostess Kumari (please forgive the spelling). Each dish was incredibly delicious. I especially liked the butter chicken, my husband loved the lamb. Don’t eat too quickly, take time to savor and enjoy. Accompaniments were basmati rice and saffron rice and Indian flatbread. Excellent. We then had Masala tea and Alva ( a very special sweet wheat pudding that takes 4 days to make ), which was perfect. We ate upstairs where you sit barefoot on floor cushions around your table. Just fun! Chef came out to greet us. All said, a great, and affordable dinner deserving of its Michelin ranking.More

This isn’t my first disco when it comes to Indian food. I have been eating it regularly for over 40 years and can also cook authentic curries (even if I say so myself🎺). I have to say that this small restaurant in Little India is...up there with the best Indian food I have ever eaten. You can choose your heat preference from a scale of 1 to 10. I hadn’t left the toilet roll in the fridge at the hotel so opted for number 4. This was about perfect for me but I would say that this was at least vindaloo strength back home. Let that be warning to you. The owners are lovely people and happily recommended different dishes and drinks that we had never tried before. You must try the ginger pickle it is sublime. At the end of a lovely experience we were given a number of boxes of different spices to take home which was a nice touch. Guess the chef recognised my culinary talents😄More

After visiting the Indian restaurant Lagnaa, I was left feeling slightly disappointed. The staff were friendly and accommodating, however the food itself was mediocre at best and ridiculously overpriced too. Portion sizes were small by comparison to similar restaurants in the same area, which only...added to my dismay. Although I usually avoid writing negative reviews, I felt obligated to provide a fair warning for any potential diners before having the same experience as myself. Despite offering a wide range of dishes on their menu, all of the ones tried lacked any real flavor or originality - nothing truly stood out as being superior. To conclude, if you are looking for a fair value dining option with good quality food then Lagnaa is probably not the place for you. While the staff were friendly and courteous the food simply does not live up to its prices or expectations - so if you do decide to visit here make sure you know what you're getting yourself into. 1/5 stars given with heavy hesitation.More

Very friendly and accommodating staff. It was my friend's birthday and since she was a vegan, we wanted to give a try to Lagnaa for a change since its been given a Michelin award and the barefoot dining was something I was particularly looking out...for that no other restaurants in Little India offers. My friends and I were absolutely mind blown with the services provided and the food tastes amazing. It was an impromptu birthday celebration and the staffs of Lagnaa immediately made something out of nothing in a form of a dessert and served us with a candle. We were so touched by the service provided and honestly this restaurant offers nothing but a rustic and homely feeling. I strongly encourage many who have not tried Lagnaa, please do so, as its definite worth the travel to the restaurant because of the food and the service which you wouldn't want to give it a miss.More
