Against Kennington's South Asian anchors, Doost & Amici trades depth for breadth. Gandhi's and Kennington Tandoori offer more polished subcontinental menus with clearer specialty focus, but neither solves the 'one diner wants Italian' problem that dual-cuisine addresses. If your party agrees on format, those spots deliver tighter execution. If compromise is the goal, Doost & Amici's split menu is the practical pick.
Italo offers a cleaner Italian-only experience elsewhere in London, with more critical attention and likely higher prices. For casual Italian closer to Kennington, the tradeoff is polish versus convenience. Dirty Burger Vauxhall sits nearby for fast-casual fallback, though it's a different occasion entirely. The fishmonger James Knight of Mayfair isn't a restaurant comparison but signals the ingredient-sourcing baseline across London's mid-tier dining rooms.
Book Doost & Amici when your group can't align on cuisine, when you need a late slot after 9 PM in Kennington, or when easy reservations matter more than prestige. For specialist depth or awards-backed cooking, look north of the river or deeper into South London's destination addresses like 101 Pimlico Road or 104 (Modern Cuisine).
