Shalamar in Leeds

This place never fails,the food is always exceptionally good and tasty it's always delivered on time,the customer service is great and in my opinion there's no place within 10,000 mile radius that serves such great food

Got a takeaway, it was very bland and a bit gloopy. The pilau rice looked like it was just boiled rice with a tiny bit of food colouring. We won't be ordering again.

Not ordered from here for a while but Ive not missed much. As always, Excellent food and on time delivery. 👍

Have ordered kebab from them for years, and especially their healthy option grilled dinner can’t get it anywhere else. Always on time friendly delivery. Excellent.

Amazing! Ordered a few times and each time the curry has been lovely, hot and delivered quickly. Would definitely recommend and can’t wait to order again!

Came late. Chicken pakora’s were very dry and curry was warm.

Cold food and disappointing beautiful when I ordered last time

Curry was absolutely beautiful. Rice was cooked perfect. Also gave 2 extra chapati and poppadoms. Only fault was a little bit of burnt garlic in the curry but other than that everything was spot on. The delivery driver was lovely too. Will definitely be ordering again

Very little sauce and lukewarm food, not great

Ordered 2 cans of coke and a Rubicon mango just to receive 2 cans of pepsi instead, I would of preferred them to call me and give me a selection to choose from rather than just picking. The curry and chips was nice. The naan was not edible at all, it was like leather definitely not freshly made. Pakora was okay, abit too much coating. So overall abit disappointed but was still nice!

Great taste, lords of food for what I payed. Lovely all over.

Great food, lords of food for what I payed. Great delivery service. Keep going 🥰

Naan bread too soft and sekh kebab to oily. Good otherwise. husband sweated alot from the heat! 😄

Worse kebab I have ever eaten (well I didn’t eat ) it was that bad; and the driver turned up with a cigarette in his hand , not good delivering food while smoking ……. Not happy

Fantastic Curries every time. Staff are always friendly, they even gave my daughter a free bottle of water when we were collecting an order during a heatwave in the summer. Definitely recommend

Ordered via just eat as didn’t have cash and the increase in price is way over the top - app wouldn’t give me a collection option so had delivered to pub over road. Curry’s were nice but starters were dry and not best quality. Shalamar can be hit and miss depending what you order.

The sauce was like water the chicken was barely warm and the cheesy chips were rock hard!

I went to shalama from what the locals said and it definitely was a perfect choice, enjoyed the service the food was amazing 💯👍

food was lovely and hot. Curry tasted great.

Wasn't the best for the amount it cost.

The order was late, and had spilled inside the clingfilm wrapping. It contained items I hadn’t ordered and can’t eat due to a food allergy. I couldn’t ring them as the phone number is disconnected so I had to rely on Just Eat for communication. They won’t even give me a partial refund for the delayed delivery, claiming traffic issues delayed the driver. The take away is less than 2 miles from my house and even in peak times it doesn’t take 45 minutes to get there The whole experience was disappointing and frustrating and I won’t be doing it again that’s for sure.

Arrived late but it was Sat night so a busy time. We got the chefs special to share with onion bhajis and shami kebabs. All really tasty and very good value. Will order again but will collect next time

There was an issue when restraunt says food was delivered, but food was still 10 minutes away. Not great but you get loads of food and quality was good

Amazing food that is tasty and flavoursome.

Beautiful curry, always my favourite go to for Indian. Great food.

I never leave reviews but this was the worst takeaway I've ever had. Very poor quality. I was scammed out my money basically and there's nothing I can do about it

Lovely food and very tasty! Nice portion sizes too.

Utterly abysmal food. Nan was supermarket bought, pilau rice was just boiled rice with food colouring, curry was more chickpea than meat and what little meat there was was tough. Possibly the worst takeaway I've ever had the misfortune to pay for.

I'm not one for hyperbole, that was literally the worst takeaway I've ever paid for. How on earth have these guys been around 40+ years?

Used this shop loads of times ands it’s been great same order everytime - last night the kebab was not as good, hardly any chilli sauce on and the tub of mint yoghurt was like water !! Shame and I’ve requested a refund for the mint sauce

They gave us a free large mixed starter as we spent so much. Everyone was happy food was super hot despite collecting and driving home. So many extra chapattis for all the curry’s. Highly highly recommend

Perfect staff and perfect food.We always come back and we enjoy the food.

Wow, what a feast, fantastic food, big portions great value our new goto takeaway in Pudsey

The starters are the best-onion bhajis to die for . Lovely hot food. Quick delivery and friendly staff.

The quality of the mixed donor kebab and chilli sauce is always top class.. Why else would we cone back since 87....

Absolutely lovely dinner. Huge portions and very well cooked. My only complaint is the lack of pickle on the pickle tray. What we got was abundant but the lime preserve is my favourite part and we had none. Delivery was right on time, friendly staff and food was hot. Perfect.

Ordered a donner on a garlic naan with salad and chilli sauce. Was very small not what I expected. Naan was soggy and the salad was brown and soggy. Nearly 9 quid for it and I've had bigger donner kebabs on a pitta bread for half that price. Chips were very greasy to the extent u got a lashing of oil on your tonsils. Not nice at all. I've never tried a curry and maybe that's their speciality but I wouldn't recommend the chips kebabs or burgers. Just wasted money and won't be returning

Paid extra for a mild korma, came and was very spicy totally spoilt

We have ordered from here for over 30 years when it was Jays dads and only once wasn’t happy but this was soon sorted . Jay is so accommodating and always friendly . The delivery always comes earlier than expected . 5 stars from us

Poor quality food, the chicken was just pre packed tikka pieces and the other order was frozen food warmed up.

Food excellent as normal , would recommend without hesitation !!

Best curry around these ends 👍👍👍

Worse food I've ever had, late cold and bland

They helped me after money missap not there fault and sorted straight away and sent me the niced hot food aswell will always recommend them and will order over and over again! Well worth the money and tasty food cant ask for more 🤤

Excellent food with a great service I highly recommend it to everyone xx🕺🏿

The best place and the staff are very nice, thanks.

Kebab meat a little bit dry but the rest of the food was nice .

The starter was wonderful. But the curry was terrible.

Chicken was so tough it pulled my filling out!

The best take-away with authentic food and THE most welcoming and attentive staff and owners. Thank you for always looking after us, can't get enough of the chef's special. Keep up the great work! Highly recommended :)

Good food as normal , love this takeaway!!

Hottest extra mild curry ever! I paid extra to have it “extra mild” for it be as hot as it usually would be but given a tub of yoghurt sauce presumably to cool it down! Not good. Bye bye £19… hello heartburn and stinging tongue!

Love the menu and the food , I would recommend your service without reservation to everyone !! Well done and thank you .

Take away meal absolutely inedible ridiculously hot no flavour Just HOT stupidly HOT horrible not just spicey I can do spicy, love spicy love flavour but this was HORRIBLE it was ridiculous & inedibleI was physically ill with the discomfort of burning. Shame really as not had a takeaway in over 3 years, will not be having one ever again... it was disgusting.

Excellent curry x 2 Havent ordered before, but will now Gave extra chapatti - which was appreciated

10/10 food as always , lovely staff!!! my go to takeaway❤️

Not nice from here anymore unfortunately

Perfect food as always I’d highly recommend this restaurant

Good food and the owner is very nice

Most of it went in the bin arrived 25 mins early onion bhaji was soggy and greasy chips were greasy Donner kebab was average

Lovely food. Chefs special is amazing. Tasty, and good value for money.

Thhe Doners were tasteless , could not taste any of the spices.It tasted more like cheap beefburgers that had been mashed up.This is unusual for Shalamar but I won't be ordering again for quite a while.

Soggy chips all of it was cold brought wrong rice forgot cans of pop took over an hour

Best curry I have ever tasted and lovely service.

Cheers guys. Lovely food. Friendly service. 5*

Over an hour late, had to phone them to ask where it was. Was told 5 mins, didn’t arrive, called back again after 15 mins, finally turned up. Clap cold & not worth the wait at all. Not worth the £28 we paid for it. Won’t be ordering again. Shame as used to be a lovely takeaway.

All food was tasteless most of it went in bin -

My order was an hour and a half late, surprisingly still warm though as though it had been rushed through when I called at the almost an hour late point… I politely requested on the order to call me instead of using the buzzer to my flat as my baby was asleep. This was not paid attention to thus disturbing the rest of my evening and leading to me not even being able to enjoy the food I had waited so long for.

Shocking customer service, I phoned at 18:30 didn’t receive my food so I phoned back at 19:30 to be told that it’s the next one out, it’s now 20:00 and no food, and they ain’t answering the phone which’s still not turned up I used these all the time as well

Very busy was the response from the driver. Therefore the Food was a little cold. Saying that, the food was really nice.

I've been coming here since it opened in 1981 and do a 30 mile round trip weekly t get my curry; I have three very shops local to me and the Shalamar is by far the best I've ever tasted

Absolutely gorgeous food and piping hot. Delivery man looked fed up. Please be realistic with delivery times, that's all I ask. Thanks

Lovely food and quick delivery.

Ordered 'mixed grill & chips' 4.30 opened at 5 delivery due 5.25-5 45 turned up 6.05 clap cold! When I phoned to complain the owner argued with me 'classed as a starter meal so goes cold quick' even though I've had the same meal delivered a few times and hasn't been cold! No offer of exchange or refund. Will not be ordering again!

This order never turned up had no reply from just eat! Said they would review my comment! Heard nothing

Food was very poor and tasteless. There was no appeal to it at all. Please remove them from Just Eat.

Great set of guys been feeding me for 30 years highly recommended 👌

Missing chips not able to get through to them?

Always been the best curry I've known in the last 25 years of using this restaurant

Everything ordered was fantastic thanks guys

All aspect of the food was piping hot and was soooo tasty. Yum yum.

The food is lush and always on time, placed orders with these guys several times and never had a problem 👌 highly recommend this takeaway to anyone 💯

Iv got nothing bad to say about these guy foods all ways hot and all ways on time or even earlier and tasted bang on couldn't ask for anything better keep up the good work guy

Food was nice, the rice could have been a little hotter, delivery driver was friendly but I had paid for an oreo milkshake with my order but I didnt get it, driver told me they'd come back in the next 10 mins with it but took 40mins but was worth the wait.. wish could just order the milkshake it was really nice

Good food even though it was late ,needed reheating and chilli sauce was missing.

I have been ordering food from shalamar for over 20 years! If you want a proper curry, restaurant style without the hiked up price, then they are the best you will find in this area. If your one of those people who complain about a curry been too spicy or some grease then maybe it's not the restaurant for you. All curries have grease, even my own homemade curries. Shalamar always go above and beyond to make my order right, love you guys :)

Edit, The delivery price went up by £1 time after time, we are 10 minutes drive away, but it seems our custom wasn't wanted even though accepted on the apps. So the delivery price was hiked beyond reason and we gave up. 😞 Your locals might collect, a delivery service is to expand your customer base is it not? Hey ho mustn't grumble too much. Just no longer the happy customer I once was. 1st things 1st... it's all gone. Wasn't disappointed. My 1st Takeaway Delivery from here, Chefs special gone large with extra chapatti. ..and some free poppadoms. It was too spicy for the other half but she's not into spices much.

use many times and always been ok

Finally found a chicken fillet burger that was not spicy Thank You.🙂

Brilliant Jay and staff best Indian in Yorkshire. Been going there for 30 years still the best curry from day one. Keep it up

Been ordering for 25 years, Currys best ever

mushroom bhajis were not fresh was very rubbery.chips were scabby and greasy .weve always ordered from here for years and never been dissapointed but past few times weve ordered food as been old and reheated and dont know whats going on with the chips

As always the service and food quality at shalamar is second to none I would highly recommend them

Really poor food. Unpleasant chicken, rice really over-cooked, even the Asian-style meat I've had and enjoyed previously was lacking in flavour. Pudsey has lots and lots of brilliant Indian takeaway options - this isn't one of them.

These guys Taz & Jay have nailed it, PERFECTION! 👌🏼 The best value for money Indian takeaway in Leeds. My third visit and they just keep get better & better. Keep up the good work lads - Absolutely Fabulous 5 Stars ***** 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 x

"Shalamar" is consistently good, deserves it's good name. Always courteous, always good food. We have used them for many years and will continue to do so. Jon & Jo

Donner was abit dry but was still nice

Lovely found a lovely curry house at last the others we used to use have gone down hill

It took an hour and 45 minutes to arrive and the food was cold when it arrived, avoid.

Great food and super early too! Thank you :)
