" The tandoori chicken and naan here are legendary! Every bite was packed with flavor, and I loved the generous portions. I felt a bit uncomfortable with the cleanliness of the tables though. If that improves, I would gladly come back more often. " (*Curated Review*)

" I appreciate the authentic vibes at Shalimar, but the overall cleanliness was alarming. The Chicken Karahi was fantastic and packed with spices, but I did find a couple of flies buzzing around while I ate. The prices are reasonable, and the portions are generous. Just wish they could clean up a bit. " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience was a bit of a rollercoaster. On one hand, the Chicken Kebab was flawlessly cooked; on the other, the restaurant feels neglected. The service staff should smile more; it adds to the experience. It would make a huge difference! I might come back, but only for take-out. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have mixed feelings about Shalimar. The food was undeniably delicious, especially the Chicken Korma; however, the place itself felt run down, and I was taken aback by how dirty the bathrooms were. The service was adequate, but the ambiance did not create a welcoming atmosphere. It’s a real shame since the food deserves a better environment to thrive! " (*Curated Review*)

" My visit to Shalimar was disappointing. I ordered the Chicken Biryani, expecting rich flavors, but what I got was bland and undercooked. The portions were on the smaller side compared to the price I paid. Sadly, this experience did not encourage me to come back. Additionally, I found the place lacking in cleanliness which further dampened my experience. " (*Curated Review*)

Archived Reviews (767)

" The food was pretty decent, especially the kebabs, but my experience was spoiled by the dirtiness of the place. The service was friendly, but it all felt chaotic and unorganized. If the restaurant invested in some maintenance, I believe it would elevate the experience greatly. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the worst experience here. The service was slow, the staff was rude, and the food was underwhelming. My Chicken Tikka was dry and lacked seasoning which was shocking! The only redeeming quality was the naan, which was decent but not worth the trouble of coming back. I'll take my chances elsewhere next time. " (*Curated Review*)
