Sharods Tandoori Restaurant in Redbridge - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

On a saturday night and we were the only customers in the place. Iwe understand why. We have been here before and have to wait for a table on more than one occasion. Food this time was rerrible. Bombay potatoes had gone off. The poppadoms were off. Portions were much smaller and the pieces of chicken and lamb were swimming in the sauce. The milk for the coffee had gone off. They bought the milk carton to the table to try it and it was lumpy. Their service was a -10. Staff sitting in one corner just chatting. Really have no idea how to run the place. Our 1 star if far too high a rating for this place.

Curry was so disappointing the Bombay potatoes tasted like they were drenched in boltanic vinegar the rice went all mushy like baby food when I mixed it in with the curry and they gave me the wrong naan bread

So tasty, big porcion I recommend this restaurant

Not as good as it was but not bad

As usual when you order a large item they always give you the small one but pay for large - not sure I will use again

Food was good but overcharged for things I didn't have. Such a shame!

As always very friendly and great food

Food was supposed to be here more than an hour ago. Still hasn’t arrived. Phoned the restaurant they said the driver had left ten minutes ago. It’s been ten minutes since I phoned them and driver still isn’t here. Absolutely awful.

AVOID AVOID AVOID - watery curry with NO FLAVOUR! I’ve ordered from Sharod’s before and my family used to frequent when we lived nearby so I’m aware of what their curry should taste like, but this time’s curry was absolutely inedible. It was watery and lacked any flavour whatsoever - it felt like the person making it ran out of ingredients but still wanted to complete the order. I’m usually quite generous with food ratings but this was honestly the most disgusting curry I’ve ever had. This genuinely shocked me as an ole customer.

This has been my go to Indian for a while now, and the food I just received is the reason why! Flavour on top of flavour, sooo good always. 👌

I did not get the meal i paid for it. On just it it said enjoy my meal which has been delivered and i paid for it. Phoned the restaurant no answer i left so many messages.it is not nice to do that. Now the restaurant is closed

Rice was freezing cold and the curry was only warm

A once great restaurant gone downhill. Food was amazing, but service was odd and slow. Drink prices were astronomical, we were massively overcharged, and despite querying it, suddenly their English language disappeared. Will not be returning.

Got takeaway. Curries were bland and lacked any real flavour. Disappointing as this was a recommendation. If you like a 'UK' curry then you'll like this. I like mine with layers of heat and spicing which hits you at different times in each bite. This is cut and paste standard UK curry.

The food here used to be great This meal was terrible. The chicken was in great chunks and wasn’t a nice flavour on the tandoori tikka. The sauce on the korma was very watery and lacked any taste. Nan bread and onion bahji were very nice but didn’t make up for the terrible main dishes. Very disappointed will not order from here again.

25 minutes late and food was very greasy. Some was only warm

My order was incomplete and staff were rude

As always a great takeaway. Thank you

Excellent food will definitely order again good value for money

As always a top take away! Arrived on time, hot and full of flavour 👍🏻

Meat was tough was disappointed

Food was delicious and very large amounts My favourite food I recommend

I didn't receive my order yet again and it said "enjoy your food" I don't understand what's happening. Poor service

I was not happy with my order, i orders pilau rice. I got soggy white rice, chicken had no flavour. Nan bread was flat. Would not eat from there again.

Waited an hour and 20mins. Phoned 3 times and the man kept lying about where my order was then hang up. Arrived after 1hr 20mins cold and covered in oil!!! Will never use again. Very bad service

I regularly have Indian from this resteraunt and is usually very good but this order wasn’t the best, I had to heat up the food once arrived and I felt like the rice was stuck together a little so it did feel a little disappointing.

The bharji was very mushy and the mint sauce was like yogurt - we always buy from you so very disappointed this time

Beautiful food and amazing customer service, lamb was super tender and the madras was full of flavour. Thank you ! Will be back soon :)

Bangladeshi food masquerading as Indian. A relic of yesteryear's parodies and failures. Do not patronise

The chicken was inedible. Not sure what it was but was a very odd consistency and had to throw out.

I recently had a disappointing experience at Sharods due to the unprofessional behavior of one of their receptionists. This incident greatly affected the overall dining atmosphere and left me feeling disheartened by the lack of customer service. While enjoying my meal, I observed a delivery driver enter the restaurant and patiently wait for someone to assist him. The receptionist finally approached him, and the driver presented a code indicating his delivery order. The receptionist went inside to check on the order's status but returned without the order, causing understandable concern for the driver. In a polite manner, the driver inquired about the expected wait time, as it could impact his earnings during busy periods. Unexpectedly, the receptionist, an older gentleman with a beard, responded with frustration and began shouting at the driver. He exclaimed, "Why are you in such a hurry? Your order is ready! Don't come to this restaurant again!" This outburst and disrespectful behavior, displayed in front of customers, were entirely uncalled for. It is disheartening to witness a staff member berating and demeaning someone in the midst of their duties. Moreover, the receptionist's statement, asking the driver not to return to the restaurant, was highly unprofessional and unwelcoming. As a customer, I believe it is essential for restaurant management to prioritize staff training in proper customer service etiquette. Such incidents not only create an unpleasant environment for customers but also tarnish the reputation of the establishment as a whole. Customers should feel respected and valued, regardless of the situation. I sincerely hope that Sharods takes this feedback seriously and addresses the issue promptly. It is crucial for management to remind their staff about the importance of treating all individuals with dignity and respect. Only through consistent and professional behavior can they cultivate a welcoming atmosphere for customers to enjoy their dining experience. Based on this unfortunate encounter and the receptionist's unbecoming conduct, I regretfully cannot recommend Sharods to others. Improving customer service should be a top priority, as it directly impacts the overall satisfaction and reputation of any establishment. Please take this feedback constructively and work towards creating a positive and respectful environment for all patrons.

AWFUL service today! The restaurant accepted my order and gave the estimated delivery time. However, they stated the food was delivered & it never came. I’m a regular customer so this is shocking! Never using again after this

I ordered the Lamb Thali and it was not worth it for the price. The lamb curry was very oily and so was the chicken curry. It came with complementary mint sauce with 1 naan and big poppadoms. The chicken tandoori was soft and the rest was dry and chewy. It also came with a lamb sheekh kebab which was a bit spicy for my taste.

It's a very nice place for having a peaceful and delightful dinner. The staff here is very good and

Nice food. Bit awkward parking anywhere near

everything so oily. main dish of baltic was bland.

It's not the biggest restaurant but the atmosphere is good and the customer service is excellent. The food tastes great and the portion size is reasonable. If you are into spicy food I would recommend ordering the vindaloo or Madras (chicken or lamb) available

Will never visit here again! We had a table booked for 21.15. We cld tell we wasn't welcome at that time. I think we had the last of the nights food It was bland, and tasteless. They cld not clear the table quick enough. So rude! Not even a towel to wipe our hands. I wished I never payed all the bill now. Used to use the restaurant but I'd rather have beens on toast!!

Terrible, just terrible I won't go into detail but I didn't eat the food and left without paying, AVOID.

Beautiful food and beautiful staff and service. What more can i say and i left big tip.

Food was very late and not hot . The delay and heat affected the enjoyment of the food

We ordered a variety of dishes, it was fresh and delicious. The potions are large, value for money. This restaurant had a friendly service and is very clean.

Excellent as always great service great food and cheap

Very poor food ...cold and no taste to rice ..I ordered pilau rice....chicken curry.....no taste ...in food very disappointed ...not good ..

Delicious , the amount of food was huge . Will be ordering again definetely.

Food is absolutely delicious, have found my favourite curry spot, reminds me of childhood :)

Food was definitely worth the wait tho, absolutely delicious!

Got 3 texts saying it was going to be late, food was warm had to warm it up at home, no poppadoms but gave us the yogurt and salad for them. Won’t be ordering again unfortunately.

Not happy with this order. It was very oily and over 30mins late!

Unfortunately the half tandoori chicken and the paratha were cremated (so dry and overdone), shame as the rest of the meal was lovely

Tried this restaurant after I could not get through to my normal takeaway, as many others have mentioned food is too oily and bland, chicken in birana was overcooked and tough. My missus said don't order from them ever again otherwise she'll kick me out

I ordered chicken tikka masala and it was quite watery but was edible. The lamb samosa were big but had no taste whatsoever, a bit of seasoning wouldn’t go a miss. Delivery was only 5 mins late.

Curry was great but portion sizes were poor. The rice didn’t fill up the box. The order was very late too.

Poor delivery .. food cold when arrived. And chicken tasted like rubber .. won’t order from this restaurant again

Bad experience, haven’t been here since the previous owners left and created spice. Food was terrible, will continue to use spice

Good food, good service nice staff, dearer than some Indian restaurant's, but certainly worth a visit.

Food was okay - naan was cold. We were missing one of our dishes, we tried calling the restaurant 7 times but there was no answer so we were not able to resolve the issue.

Mango chutney was missing and chicken biriani was dry

So disappointed with my food last night. I dont know if they have changed chefs or was having a bad day in the kitchen. Chicken Biryani and vegetable curry was so tasteless and bland. Had to add some hot sauce to the curry just to give it some oomph. Vegetable samosa was also very bland. The chapati was not cooked all the way through and was still doughy. The chicken Balti was ok but I have had this before from Sharods and its always had a bit of a kick to it. Not this time though, very mild. I hope it was just a one off from Sharods.

Very disappointed with the chicken biryani it was very bland as was the vegetable curry. The samosa was also bland. The chicken balti was ok but needed a bit more kick to it. It was very mild. The chapatis were under cooked too. Not sure if they were having a bad day in the kitchen this evening.

Good food, friendly staff and accomodating for young children. Great night had by the entire family.

Delivery was quick. Sadly the food wasn’t great. Chicken Tikka Masala tasted ok but had far too much red food colouring and the naan bread wasn’t the usual soft and fluffy bread but more like crispy toast. We’d heard such good things about Sharod, but unfortunately our pick left us disappointed. ☹️

Probably the best Indian restaurant in the area

Tikka Masala was great, the Lamb Briyani needed a bit of extra salt, Naan was well done. Extra poppadoms was a nice touch. The vegetable curry was okay like every other curry place. Overall happy to order again.

The Nan bread was burnt and didn’t taste fresh, the chicken in the Biriyani was dry with an aftertaste. I used to eat at this place all the time but the food was really poor and tasted like it was left over from the weekend and just reheated. Plus it was late. Not impressed.

Food taste is good and economic. The ambiance is really good. Get a private box seat and spend time with your family.

Undoubtedly one of the worst Indian food ever had

Tasty food. Specifically tandoori chicken was fantastic. We really enjoyed.

The quality of the food was disappointing in comparison to previous meals -understand the increase in pricing but if the quality suffers -then would rather make my own in future

VERY NICE, THOROUGHLY ENJOYED ALL OF IT !

Wont order again, not nice at all. Tasteless and reheated.

I usually go to a different Indian restaurant. I thought to give it a try because restaurant looks nice and neat. The person who serving food is looks like good man and polite however It was big mistake and I do regret that now. Me ate the food as well ended up waking up in the middle of the night being sick vomited whole food. I have got small metal wire (I think cotton box packing metal sleak pin) from my mouth, thought first it was brush hair (one we remove while eating there) they will use to put oil on tanduri roti, then I checked in morning it was metal wire. my stomach is churning now. Toomuch oil I never seen any tikka and I never seen that kind of oiley panner. Last thing is that it’s also I am not happy bit for the price for nans then the other Indian I usually go to! Would not recommend at all.

Food was cold again on arrival and the chicken tasted like rubber .. won’t be ordering again

Food good, but unfortunately cold when it arrived. Letting themselves down, I am 2 minutes away.

Always good food and good service been going for over twenty years

Tandoori grill was salty and too bright red color. Cost is high for the quality of food.

I usually go to a different Indian restaurant but I heard good things about this restaurant from friends so decided to give it a try. Worst mistake of my life. First the lamb chops were undercooked, after one bite I could see the pink raw meat and decided to throw it away. Second I ordered lamb tikka masala and I’m not kidding there was about half an inch of oil on top of the sauce. I did end up eating some of the food as I was hungry, but I do regret that now. My boyfriend that ate the food as well ended up waking up in the middle of the night being sick. Last thing is that it’s also twice the price then the other Indian I usually go to! Would not recommend.

Ordered takeaway. Good quality food and friendly service.

30 mins early but was cold and had to re heat!! Doesn't help that the driver left my food on the floor outside my house in the rain and wind without waiting for me to get to the door...

Always excellent, the best around

My chicken was undercooked (pink) I called restaurant they only replaced the korma but I had already plated the rice and naan which was contaminated.

Exceptional quality food, I'd give ten stars if I could!

Original delivery time was around 30 -40 minutes. Didn't get the food until 1 hour 15 minutes. The whole food was stone cold, it seems the food was made on time but due to delivery delays it sat in the restaurant. Very disappointing given the fact I had a refund from a previous order for similar issues. I think I will think twice about using just eat if this continues.

Food was delivered so late that i had lost my appetite so food was wasted.

this was the best chicken masala I've ever had absolutely brilliant thank you chef

Delicious food. We go to this restaurant a lot and always enjoy our experience Would definitely recommend. 😋😋

I have eaten in a several restaurants in from Woodford to Ilford and I would say that Sharod is truly the best. Best in the quality of food and with outstanding service. The staff are excellent. They make you feel at home. They get very busy and occasionally I have had to wait a bit longer than expected but it was worked the wait. Thank you Sharod.

Does not taste the same anymore Lamb curry was grossly and quite hard chicken tikka was quite hard curry have a party taste

Great food as always! However, my favourite dish, Chicken Madras does not seem to appear on the menu. Only Lamb, Prawn etc. Apart from that, Excellent. 👌

Great food as usual. Well worth the wait

Delicious! Will order again from here. Arrived a little late, but was worth the wait.

Their recipes are not authentic. Tandoori is not supposed to be deep-fried or fried. Generally, the food contains a lot of oil. Not healthy or fresh. The money I spent is not worth it. I was horrified to see chicken tandoori drenched in oil.

20 mins late, not that hot, missing item, I love this restaurant and eat in whenever I want Indian food. Not gonna have a delivery again as there is always something that goes wrong.

Apparently delivered my order to someone else. Called them to ask about my order, they then confirmed with the delivery guy. So according to them the delivery guy didn't touch base for such a long time? No surprise ppl complain about cold food

Food was missing, prawns was given when it was supposed to be a vegetarian order and all the starters were oilly in torn paper bags.

Very late. And terrible food oil all over the top of dishes. Really gone down hill this used to be the best.

The meat was dry over cooked or had been reheated. Our order for the second time was wrong.

The restaurant text at 19.50 to say the food was on its way. The food arrived at 20.25. The restaurant is less than a 5 minute drive away.

We tried this place on a whim and the food was amazing! To the point where it will become our go to place for Indian! Korma tasty and fresh, rice and naan cooked to perfection. They also gave us a free starter as a surprise which was nice. Can't recommend enough!

Excellent food and service - you can’t beat it!! The best ever
