Origin Asia
About Origin Asia
Austin-Powers-does-Asia is how we’d describe this stylish and kooky op-art inspired Indian restaurant in the Kew Road, only minutes away from Richmond Station in south London. With graphic orange wallpaper, chandeliers and crisp white linens, Origin Asia restaurant is split over four levels offering endless options for intimate dinner parties, business meetings and celebrations, and the authentic Indian menu is popular for its classic curries. We recommend the Fish Tikka Curry - char grilled fish served in tikka masala sauce with red chillies and mustard seeds; the sea bass stuffed with yoghurt and chillies and baked in the oven; and the Reshmi Seekh chicken kebab flavoured with cheese, ginger and cardamom char-grilled in the tandoor.
