" After hearing good things about Shalimar, I decided to try it out. The food did not disappoint; everything was delicious! I had the lamb curry, and it was tender and flavorful. The only complaint I have is regarding the wait time for my food—it took a little longer than expected. However, the staff was friendly, and you could tell they were genuinely interested in providing a good experience. I would certainly go back. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a pleasant surprise dining here! Their butter chicken is creamy with just the right spice level and the garlic naan is a must-try. The restaurant has a unique charm to it that adds to the experience. While the service can be a tad slow, it’s understandable during peak hours. Overall highly recommended! " (*Curated Review*)

" Shalimar truly lives up to its reputation. The moment you step in, you're greeted by the smell of spices that make your mouth water. I particularly love their biryani; it's unlike anything I've had before. It has a perfect blend of spices and is undoubtedly authentic! The service was impeccable, although the ambiance felt a bit cluttered and could use some tidying up. All in all, a delightful restaurant that I can't wait to visit again. " (*Curated Review*)

" We tried Shalimar for the first time based on a friend's recommendation, and it did not disappoint! The chicken biryani was packed with flavor, and the portion size was great for sharing.

" I can't help but rave about Shalimar! Every time I visit, the food is consistently delicious and full of flavor. Their chicken tikka masala is the best I've ever tasted, with just the right amount of spice. The staff is incredibly friendly and they always take the time to ensure I’m happy with my meal. I highly recommend their buffet as it offers a fantastic variety at a great price. I can't wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a mixed experience at Shalimar. While the food is tasty, I thought the portions were a bit small for the price. I would have appreciated more bang for my buck. The butter chicken I had was delicious, but there was just not enough of it. Also, the service was friendly but could have been quicker. Despite this, I wouldn't write this place off— I'll give it another chance! " (*Curated Review*)
