Bringing Sri Lanka and Tamil Nadu to the heart of Bristol

Join us on a journey into the food, drink and vibrancy of owner’s Raja and Saravanan’s Tamil heritage. Celebrating the flavours and spirit of Tamil culture including the history, mythology, people and cuisine, Nadu draws on influences from both Sri Lanka and Tamil Nadu, the southernmost state of India, which has deep historical and mythological connections. Our restaurant and menus have been created with this in mind.

Head chef Saravanan Nambirajan has worked in a number of Michelin-starred kitchens across the world and has poured his expertise, knowledge and creativity into every dish. Raja is the essence of great hospitality and having grown up in Tamil Nadu and with experience from previous ventures, has created an unrivalled atmosphere laced with authenticity.

This combination of cultures and expertise creates ‘our’ Nadu! Whether it be drinks with friends or a celebratory feast, Nadu is the place to go!

We’ll see you soon!
