" This was my first visit to Shalimar, and I was thoroughly impressed! We ordered several dishes to share, and each item brought its own unique flavor that was representative of true Indian cuisine. Moreover, the staff was incredibly helpful and worked hard to accommodate our preferences. It felt like a sincere family-run restaurant, which I really appreciate. The spacious seating was a plus, making it easy to enjoy a relaxed meal. Overall, a pleasant culinary experience, and I look forward to coming back again! " (*Curated Review*)

" My visit to Shalimar was disappointing. Although the restaurant is renowned for its authentic cuisine, I found the food served to be average and lacking the robust flavors I was expecting. The buffet had limited vegetarian options, which didn't cater well to my dietary preferences. Additionally, the service was a bit slow, but the staff was polite. I hope my next visit will be more satisfying, as many reviews suggest it usually is. " (*Curated Review*)

" My friends and I had a delightful meal at Shalimar last weekend. The vibe is perfect for a Saturday night dinner, with friendly service that made us feel at home. The buffet was varied enough, but I personally felt they could add more meat options. That said, everything tasted fresh, and the chef seemed to understand the spice levels very well! I'm definitely returning to explore more of the menu during the week. Shalimar deserves the praises it gets! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a pleasant evening at Shalimar! The restaurant was busy on a Friday, so we had to wait a bit for our table, but the service was consistently good once we got seated. I ordered the lamb vindaloo, and it was a tad spicier than I anticipated, but I appreciate authentic flavors! My partner tried the vegetarian platter and was very satisfied, noting the freshness of the vegetables. Overall, a fantastic experience, and we will be back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" A hidden gem of authentic Indian dining! Shalimar offers a buffet that seems to change each time I visit, which keeps it interesting. The food is always fresh and bursting with flavors. My favorites are their lentil dishes and assorted naan, which complement everything perfectly. The atmosphere is vibey but comforting, just right for family dinners or gatherings with friends. I've always received attentive service, which enhances the overall experience. Highly recommend this restaurant; each visit has been delightful! " (*Curated Review*)

" My partner and I had dinner at Shalimar last night. We loved the decor and the ambiance of the restaurant. The service was exemplary; our waiter was attentive and kind. However, while my partner enjoyed his curry, I found my dish to be lacking in depth and spice. It wasn't bad, but my expectations were set high given the rave reviews. I would like to give Shalimar another shot in the future, hoping they can step up the flavor profile! " (*Curated Review*)

" Unfortunately, my experience was not what I expected at Shalimar. The food was somewhat bland and not the distinct creamy and spiced flavors I enjoy in Indian cuisine. Service was fine, although it felt rushed at times due to the busy atmosphere. The ambiance was nice and inviting, but the food fell flat for me. I don’t think I would return unless someone insisted I join them. " (*Curated Review*)
