If you're searching for the best vegetarian Indian restaurant in London, Sagar has been the answer for over two decades. Founded in 2001, Sagar has grown from a single location to five restaurants across central London and beyond. Each one is committed to the same founding principle: authentic, freshly prepared South Indian vegetarian and vegan food.


What Makes Sagar London's Go-To Vegetarian Indian Restaurant?


Sagar is rooted in the Udupi tradition. This style of South Indian cooking originated in the temple town of Udupi in Karnataka, India. Udupi cuisine is celebrated for being 100% vegetarian, fragrant with spices, and built around fresh, wholesome ingredients. Every dish at Sagar reflects this rich heritage.


Our Signature Dishes


At Sagar, you can enjoy a variety of delicious dishes. Here are some of our signature offerings:


  • Masala Dosa — a crispy rice and lentil crepe filled with spiced potato, served with coconut chutney and sambar.

  • Idli — steamed rice cakes, light and fluffy, a breakfast staple of South India.

  • Thali — a complete South Indian meal served on a platter with curries, rice, dal, and bread.

  • Vada — crispy lentil doughnuts, perfect as a starter or snack.

  • Biryani — fragrant basmati rice cooked with vegetables and warming spices.


Each dish is crafted with care. You will taste the love and tradition in every bite.


Five London Locations


Sagar has restaurants in Covent Garden, West End (Percy Street), Leicester Square, Hammersmith, and Harrow. This makes Sagar one of the most accessible vegetarian Indian restaurant groups in London.
