Shapla Tandoori in Reading

too much salt in one of the curries

asked for a chicken vindaloo and i got a chicken curry //was no spice or pototos

Very good food , hope this can continue

Wrong ice cream delivered. I ordered caramel chew chew and cookie dough was delivered.

Absolutely ridiculous charging people over £6 for prawns when they put 2 of the tiniest pieces in the box so charging over £3 each for tiny prawns and a box full of onions!

Great food will defo be ordering again

Order arrived and both sets of 3 bhjaos never arrived that’s over £10 missing such a shame said they’d come 15 min and still not arrived

I asked them not to knock on a certain door. Ended up waking my daughter and son up. After instruction not to knock on certain door

The Biryani’s were hotter than we expected, based on numerous ones we’ve previously had from other restaurants.

These guys have the tastiest Indian food in Berkshire the set menu is out of this world!!

Always amazing need to try for your selves

very good flavours and fresh tasting.

So good tonight - delivery was so fast and the food was piping hot. Delicious as always

Lovely food, good portion sizes! The madras was spicy but very tasty! Love that they offer paneer and meat alternatives for all the dishes!

Excellent food as ever! Worth the little longer wait but it was Saturday night and they’re busy because they’re top notch. Great restaurant 👍🏻

was massively late also missing the butter chicken and the sagg also was ordered as a main but only a side delivered the onion baji was about half the normal size. really disappointing

Fantastic food. It’s Valentine’s so can cut some slack

Amazing!! It’s my birthday and everything was great THANK U X

order was delivered incomplete. called the restaurant & they said they would send out the missing rice within 15mins. I called again 30mins later & was told it was on its way. nearly a hour later it turned up cold as was the dish I was waiting to eat due to the missing rice. the cost of the meal was pretty expensive considering it had a 40% discount when the order was placed. Will not be buying from here again

Great as always best Indian in Berkshire

The food was cold when it arrived. I have had to reheat to eat it. Very nice though

Arrived arround 20mins early & hot & tasty as always definately a 5 star

Used to be our favourite Indian, after a bad experience we hadn’t ordered for a long time thought we would try it again, the biryani wasn’t very nice no flavour and chunks of bone in it. Won’t be ordering again

Absolutely lovely as ever. Love Shapla!

Food either tasted like water or tomato purée

The food was bad the rice was dry and the potatoes were hard not happy at all the chicken was nice and you delivery driver really sweet

I have to wait for 17 minutes at least for my order to be ready.

Both dishes ordered was really bland, time to try somewhere else which is a shame

Always order from here… great service and food is so nice and always hot

The food was delicious, nice and hot, and will definitely order again. I highly recommend this restaurant, try it.

This is the 2nd time we had poor flavours in Naga, Bhindi & Chicken tarka. There was no naga and authentic spices to these dishes where it used to be delicious and so authentic. We’ve been your long term DESI customers. Chicken tarka had no naga,onions & peppers. Maybe chef has changed but we requested in this order and previous for authentic flavour improvement. We’ve spent so much money to be yet again disappointed.

I ordered over two hours ago and have still not received my order. I spoken to them over an hour after ordering they said 10-15 mins still not arrived so rung back again an hour later to be told another 10-15 mins. Even offered to pick my food up they said no as they haven’t finished cooking yet

portion sizes were small, delivery was over two hours late due to the restaurant being busy. Items missing from the order and the delivery driver didn't even ask for the code. we took a chance with the offer to stray from our regular but we will be going back to them from now on. Not worth the wasted wait.

Absolutely delicious. 11/10 lower in salt so can taste the food . Most places contain too much salt . So this was a nice change from that

The messed up our order and sent a mixed colour rice with onion and leaves in so had to sort with just eat as their 40 mins from us. Everything else was ok

shapla never fails to impress, been going here for 3 years and always had a great meal!

Usually steaming hot but was only lukewarm today. Still tasty. Will still order again

my order hasn't arrived yet and it's said that it's been delivered

Hemos pedido mantequilla de pollo, curry de langostinos y biriyani de Shapla. Fue la peor comida de la historia. Todos los currys eran tan dulces y sabían menos. Tuvimos que tirar toda la comida que es una pena.

ESPERÉ TODO EL DÍA POR COMIDA QUE SE SUPONÍA QUE SE ACEPTARÍA Y ABRIRÍA HOY. ESTE FUE EL ÚLTIMO DE MI DINERO AHORA TENGO QUE ESPERAR MI REEMBOLSO Y QUEDARME SIN COMIDA EL DÍA DE NAVIDAD Estoy tan decepcionado e insatisfecho. Solías ser mi lugar favorito para pedir. Hoy de todos los días, me decepcionaste de la peor manera posible.

Food was extremely good and totally enjoyed it

We were charged delivery fee which applies to properties over 5 miles away, we are 2 miles from Shapla

Very good food, can tell was made with care even as I ordred late in the night. 10/10

Delicious as always, thanks Shapla!

DO NOT GET DELIVERY - Ordered delivery and never received our food. restaurant never answered the phone when we tried to call multiple times about our order..

had to wait 2 hours for it, not much taste

Nice quality food, meat byriani, meat was nice and tender. Lacking flavour and spices. Much too mild

Been here many a times and they are better than other Inidn takeaways. Reasonably priced too. Their house special briyani is my favourite

onion bhaji was not cooked inside

The food is very tasty and it's value for money. The owners are very humble and kind. Highly recommend this restaurant.

The food is always delicious from Shapla but this time we did not have a good experience with delivery - we had an incomplete order with several items missing from our large family order which really disrupted our family celebration and the second delivery to bring the missing items was also incomplete and the food was squashed.

Brilliant portions and very yummy! highly recommend.

Excellent, was delivered as instructed, brilliant service, food was quality, loved it.

was ok but left out the mint sauce what I paid for.

was all lovely apart from chicken nuggets not nice did not eat them

They always do me a special of Lamb and Veg Korma yum.

Very good food, delivered hot and on time, no complaints..!

Madras was far too hot more like Vindaloo couldn't eat it. Always eat Madras but thus was something else so so hot. disappointed

we love Shaplas, never dissapoints 😄❤️

As I am deaf I need to be contacted by text but I received four calls which I couldn’t follow. Apart from that I simply love their food. So much variety, generous portions. I ll keep coming back. Thanks.

Excellent food, tasty, lots of choice and delivered on time

Our food took just under 2 hours to arrive from when ordered. We phoned the restaurant as the app said delivered but it hadn’t and it had gone past the estimated delivery time by 20 mins. We were told our delivery was just on its way out to us.

Sadly tonight's food was over spiced it was inedible such a shame as always had great food from shapla and never go anywhere else. Maybe different chef tonight

excellent food, great taste, super lovely people. very good quality

Great food. Quick delivery. Best curry we’ve had in ages.

a nan bread was missing .but ring up and rectified it straight away and delivered it . lovely staff thankyou .we aways go here bested in reading

Favourite! Very polite and friendly on pick up

Great food, courteous service - excellent

Always reliably great tasting food, and wonderfully friendly service!

Did forget my curry but resent very quickly

The best Indian takeaway in reading by far

I have never had a bad dish from this place. The best Indian out there! Yet to find one that beats Shapla!!

Wow! Best Indian food we have had in a very long time! fresh and tasty. Only criticism would be the naan bread was a little small but packed great flavour!

Great food, everything very nice and loads of meat.

my food never arrived could of just cancel it and I could just place an order in a different takeaway

absolutely superb could not fault it amazing

As always, exceptional food which is hot and on time. Delicious!

Food was great as always. Delivery was late but it’s a bank holiday so it was bound to be busy. I did call and was told it was on its way. Turned up 20 mins late but food was nice and warm. Still a happy customer.

Excellent! Fantastic food, delivered home and on time, highly recommended!

Have known them for 3 years now. And they have not once disappointed. Always giving us extra bread/salad/poppadoms or a drink. The curries are spot on. You can taste the difference in the fact they're homemade. Also, being Halal, that tops it off 👏

really good food and nice staff

Excellent delivery service to my hotel. Friendly delivery driver. Food was piping hot and bagged up great. No greasy spillages. Plastic containers. The food was excellent. Clean. Non greasy. Tasty and great portions. A tad on the spicy side for me but that doesn’t take away from the quality of the food. My veggie dhansak was full of veg and had the perfect sweet and sour flavour! The special rice was perfect. Came with salad, mint yogurt and onion salad. Well done, Team Shapla!

Ordered food online but what i received was worst. First of all no salt in food just flat dal tadka and saag paneer. By the way do you call that saag paneer i can cook better than that. And please improve your cooking standards so taht people can order again if possible. If don't have salt in your restaurant let me know i can send across.

Spot on everytime, best indian you will find in Reading. The Pathia is very nice along with the Keema Naan.

great food, great delivery service as always.

Lovely people but not great food it's a shame 😔

Order arrived missing a korma, this meant 2 orders of bhaji (6 total) and chicken tandoori went cold waiting 40 mins for korma to be re delivered at which point the rest is freezing and u able to warm chicken! Really really disappointing after being a loyal customer for 14 years +

Excellent delivery however the curry was sooooo sweet and inedible 😏

Really good food! Even my fussy toddler has eaten it!!

Started using shapla again after a long time. We had not so nice chicken on one occasion so did not go back. Then 1 night they delivered to my neighbor and I got chatting with delivery driver. I rang that night to order and it was great but last time and this time , 10 mins ago, we got Onions in our egg fried rice which we asked not to have. Then they argued a bit on phone and stated no Onion is in rice, but it was. Anyway Eventually they offered to change but meal now cold and not as enjoyable.😡😡 Not totally happy. But that being said, THE CHICKEN WAS ESCEPTIONAL and food up u to usual level. The people who work there are really lovely and very professional. Just remember no onions pls as I have an allergic reaction and can make me real sick!! Mr Tim. Tot rd

Fantastic as always. Amazing food, special notes taken into consideration, hot and on time. Cannot fault.

food was amazing, delivery quick, and friendly driver. always good.

Pedido para la recogida como es normal, pero nos habíamos dado por vencido en esta toma anteriormente debido al mal servicio. Llegó a casa y le dieron un pollo Tikka biriayni en lugar de uno vegetal. Llamé a la comida para llevar y nos dijeron que dijimos pollo en lugar de verduras, pero les dije que mi hija es vegetariana. Dijeron que cumplirían. 25 minutos después recibí una llamada para decir que no tenían un repartidor y tuve que volver a recogerlo. Es gracioso como yo saqué a su repartidor también lo hizo. No recibí una disculpa ni £ 1 de vuelta, ya que la verdura es más barata. No me molestaría en volver de nuevo.

I ordered a vegan vegetable Dansak and they really went out of their way to make sure it was a special meal and it was lovely but lacked flavour slightly. Very friendly and helpful and would love to try food from here again.

food amazing so no problem waiting especially on England playing opening Game at the euros they also forgot a Nan bread

Not the usual standard of food, tasted watery with no real flavour. Disappointed.

Chicken Tikka Masala here it sooo good! Always consistently good food! :)

Madras was lovely, my friend said the garlic chilli masala was excellent.

This by far the best Indian takeaway in reading. I have been using for 10 years now and I have never had bad meal. Simple amazing freindly staff and 5 star food always delicious.

As always, best Indian food in Reading!
