Shazmin's in Leicester

It’s a 4 all round for food. I’ve had the pizza it was good. But the price in particular the 3 for 5 pounds deal is amazing

Horrendous, really poor service! 2Hours wait! For delivery!!!!

Shazmins is one of the most famous and legendary takeaway shops/ fish and chip shops in Leicester. Theyve got doner, fish and chips, pizza and per chicken (& more). Good location. Great history. Fantastic food. Highly recommended!

Sometimes the food is good, sometimes it's terrible especially when it's busy. The queues are terrible and you'll be waiting 30-45 minutes regularly for your orders, even if you pre-ordered before. It is an unorganised mess in there, not first come first serve. You won't believe how many angry customers I've seen. The food is terribly inconsistent.

I’m a customer who’s comes back alot they improve every day it’s perfect the service is perfect and food the atmosphere is reasonable and always clean the employees are very kind!

Amazing food at cheap prices. Their chicken wings, the best I’ve eaten. They also do fish and chips… must try!

It’s services is very good and to fast staff also good

The pizza was cooked to perfection and the toppings were delicious 😋

Orderd from shazmins the first time Melton road Leicester ,and it was sensational .I shared the food with my pops ; I highly recommend the fried fish with masala allhamdolillah ❤️🍉

Unfortunately I have the worst experience of at this shop realeteted to food is so bad as they serving cold and old chips also fish i think is a well overdue it doesn’t have any freshness it taste so bad it will not recommend to spend your money at this place is disgusting rating food from 1to 10 il give it a -5

I first time tried there pizza it was rubbish. Paneer tikka on pizza was like a stone and zero taste.very thick base.i will never gonna buy from them ever 👎

It's a fun experience and the workers are very nice and definitely visiting again

Visited twice and they have not let me down, very pleased! Good customer service especially from Shaq! Would defo go back again

I live nearby. I regularly ask for fresh made to order hot wings and chips, which are great. Today when they gave me wings which weren't fresh, I called. They apologised and gave me a fresh batch. That's good customer service. Their piri piri chicken is expensive, but it tastes great IF you can hack the heat. Really really hot. Pizzas are great value - even the 3 for £15 they don't skimp on the toppings. Great good, decent prices overall.

Very poor service. Went to get my food, I was going to get charged the wrong price for the food I had ordered, furthermore they didn't have card payment active which just wasted my time.

I ordered a hotdog, southern fried fillet burger and chips. The food and portion size was good. Prices were very reasonable. The service was excellent and friendly. I would recommend pre-ordering to minimise queuing in the shop.

I Have tried pizza from many places. But the peri peri chicken pizza is worst. The was full of spices which burnt mouth. A waste of money. I would suggest nobody buy from them.

Even though its quiet. The wait time is very long. They would rather serve their friends that walk in later than customers that come first.

Still the same as ever , very generous amounts given and Tasty food and have to try Shazmin Supreme Pizza

Very nice friendly staff fresh hot good priced food

I bough pizza the pizza was okay but I took I bite and felt a hard peice so when I check what it was it was a hard piece of plastic don’t buy from here I was lucky to spit out the peice of plastic

Bon Appetite.🙂 Unacceptable for a pizza to be delivered in this manner.

Cash only, expensive and has gone downhill over time.

A decent and cheap place to grab a pizza. Pizza is nice but the dough is too thin and crusty, best place for people who likes thin crust pizza.

Yummy foods the best in Leicester

The peri peri pizza was burnt but tandoori chicken pizza was nice

Had a review on 3 years ago but had to go and change it after my brought back a heatwave burger. It had too much sauce no way to hold the burger and for price £9. Its just a normal fillet burger drowned in a lot of sauce. And chips was not even fried properly.

Food was okay I ordered cheesy chips service was fast

Really bad experience from the food here. The Donner kebab and chips utterly disgusting. Won't be coming here again.

Very happy with the service provided would recommend this takeaway

very bad service, worse staff, they did not completed order on time waiting their half and hour and still telling me 10 min more, if you can’t complete order on time then stop taking order and dont waste our time.

3 times iv had batterd sausages and 3 times the batter is hard as nails the sausage is dry and nasty taste they DIY in the cabinet drying out for hours on end absolutely dreadful chicken sits there cold for hours one of the worst

Amazing food. Highly recommended

we have our regular Tuesday fish and chips or chips and premium margarita pizza, always has been great. can't fault quality.

Very nice place food. Love their options

Food is good but service is poor

Tried the Shazmins special premium pizza. The pizza comes with a thick soft crust and overloaded with toppings. It was a little too spicy for my liking. Domes and chicken toppings were generous. The staff especially tareq was polite, quick and very generous. Tip: use their application for a discount. Halal ? : yes CASH ONLY

The premium pizzas are well worth the price and the chips with all the sauces , well well worth the try, better than any other places in Leicester

It has changed from 2000 but was near by and popped in and the service is a lot better fresh faces and listen to how I wanted my food

Most amazing food best crispy fosh and amazing periperi chicken, and chilly souce the burgers just as good 100% nice fillet

I had a pizza few times , it was good, but tonight,food wasn’t good,very salty.I am not happy

Prices are expensive through Uber Eats, but i guess that's understandable with fees etc. But the quality of the food was not good, chips were undercooked and greasy, same with the chicken, stomach feels bad for it next day.

Been going to this place since it opened and still one of the best in Leicester. Occasionally the batter comes away from fish which needs addressing. Otherwise keep it up and family always looks forward to a Shazmins.

Paid 28.00 for food that did not turn up. Stay away!!!

We always order pizza and it is very delicious 🍕 🍕 🍕

My Family Favourite ❤️ Take Away. Also They Got 2 Branches Now So Much easier get Food From Either of This Take Away

If there is a term called "Traditional Pizza of Leicester," then they own this title. Years after years, no one can make pizzas like Shazmin. I have tried lots of pizzas from different places, but after 1st bite, I always tell my family it's not like Shazmin. Their peri peri chicken the 2nd best thing from their kitchen 😋 👌 love the spice in it. I would say just get anything from here, and you will never be disappointed ever.

Simply brilliant, special Lamb doner and Chips, burgers, pizza everything is brilliant.

Excellent food, never disappoints.

The customer service was brilliant and the employees were very friendly. The potions were huge and the food was very tasty. The fish was massive and it was nice and crispy

First time we ordered from Shazmins and we were not disappointed! Great value for money...we will be back for sure

Fish batter was sloppy chips were not fresh. I asked for salt and vinegar but none on it. The skin on the wings was rubbery like they're old. I'll stick to an English chippy next time maybe then I'll get proper fish n chips

Good food as always. Disappointed that I ordered on their app which had a clear wait time. When I got there for collection at the time given, I had to wait a further 20mins to get my order. Understand they are busy but its their given wait time o the time which was 35mins from the time of order. Walk in customers were getting serviced before my order. Need to review your system.

This place is very good. The food is very nice and especially the Pizza. I would recommend to anyone who want good pizza. Subscribe to MRAsian_Editz on YouTube

Aaahhh the best spicy donnaaa! Can never fault it, recipe gets better and better, however it is a small portion for the price you pay, but I don’t mind that as long as it tastes great! The queues are mad but then again shows how great the business is doing! So well done to you all

i love this shop, their sauces and chips are amazing but i wish that their cheese wasnt too expensive

Local Legend this place is older than i am but the food is still amazing just like when i was a child. I always opt for the donner kebab with chilli sauce which is mind blowing. Would definitely recommend ordering from Shazmins.

Great food, really famous for their: • masala fish and chips • special pizza • Spicy wings Managers and workers are good and friendly. You just need to make sure you keep repeating your order so that they don't mess it up or mix it up with others as it gets really busy.

Great service with even better food! Would definitely recommend.

Less quantity, not worth for the price. Not recommended

Was hungry Sunday night and most fish bars are closed the staff are really friendly and they are very generous with the portion size and even better tasted delicious I would defo alt recommend :)

Bro im from london finished a national express job looked for a takeway place to eat and found shazmins the chips not the same as london but taste 10x better, the lanb burger honestly you should see my face it tells its lovely and the wings I recommend this restaurant if anyones looking for a munch and the price decent 👍👍

Going in here, your gonna be in for a long wait just to be served, I get they were busy, but a 5min wait just for service!? Then i wait over 30 min for my food, when I was advised 15-20! The chips were average, rather oily (which is saying something for a chipy) staff are so busy they can't give you any service, except for the bare minimum. Not a good experience. I stopped going here many years ago, thought I'd see if it was worth going back to after 18 or more years, won't be going back. Good isn't that good here.

Had Shazmin a few times never been a problem but today ordered curry sauce and didn’t receive it and was to late when you get home with food then ordered a chicken wrap and the chicken was still hard and not cooked!! Waste of money this time and won’t be going back again

The food is exquisite... definitely recommend.

If you like Tangy Spicy Masala Fish or Chicken Strips and you are in Leicester City than you must not go for any other place other than Shazmin's they say it's a 30 year old Chicken Shop and we are glad we found it. I am originally from Karachi Pakistan and we find it hard to actually get the right sort of spice level that could satisfy our taste buds but this one is purely like eating from some restaurant in famous Burns Road Karachi. I ordered Masala Fish, Peri Peri Chicken Strips and Peri Peri Chicken breast. It's a shame this restaurant only opens in Evening and delivery takes about 45 mins so that's the only complain I have. Attaching the pictures and you can see the overloaded Masala all over meat it is the star of all these dish on the menu they mentioned it is spicy and can't be made mild but to my taste buds it's not unbearable Spicy rather it is Tangy and Spicy so taste really good specially the kids eat the masala with fries and find it Yummy.

Have always maintained a good fish, very important to me when it comes to fish and chips. Also the rest of the menu is good as well.

Since they started using their brand name on the packaging the owner of shazmins has started charging double price on all the items now and taste is gone down, I don't recommend shazmins anymore to my family bcoz of the high prices. Only big shot ppl can eat now from shazmins

Great customer service, friendly staffs, amazing job keep it up <3

Food is good but service is bit confusing they got 3 different counters so if you go 1st he will send you on another one if you go 2nt he will say oh go to another

Very tasty food and extremely excellent service 👌

Got 3 pizzas and southern fried chicken n chops 1 pizza was burnt the food prices are going up n good quality and size portions down use to go here lots no more thank upu

Friendly and consistence service. Food always on point 🙌

I was hungry, I couldn't afford the fish, so I asked for just chips, but the staff member who served me showed kindness and compassion and gave me the fish as a blessing, it is rare to see such kindness, it was also an answer to prayer, may the Most High bless them for showing such kindness to one of his children, it is good to see such things, decency and kindness, I didn't say thankyou in the way that I should have, that is why I am writing this review, the staff at Shazmins have my respect and gratitude, I am not a man that gives out respect freely, so when I see something that is worthy of respect, I give much praise, because honorable actions are worthy of praise. they treat their customers as people worthy of respect, that in itself is a rarity, but add to it charity? that speaks volumes! Thank you again! To be rich without honour is as a beggar lying in the street, to be satisfied and have a good name is better than all the riches of the world, a good name is remembered for it's goodness, a bad name ? one desires to forget it quickly, Shazmins have earned their good name....may they be satisfied with goodness and good works!

Been having this since childhood. It’s just not the same anymore, not even close. Disappointing. They overdo the sauce in food please stop this. You make it difficult to eat in peace cause of the crazy amount of sauce you put, time is just spent removing the sauce.

this place is by far far most the best place to get top quality food with second to non quality service i love the fish and special doner pizza nice and meaty pizza for a reasonable price. the prices are cheap and for what we get i would pay more if i had to ,

Absolutely awful food. Been coming to Shazmins for many years but recently the last 3visits had very bad experiences. This time I brought large fish and chips, the fish was not fresh at all, all jelly inside and stale. Tastes like it i was eating straight out the river. Will never every order food from here again. As well as being extortion in prices the food is awful please stay away

I don't often leave reivews, especially bad ones that could potentially impact a business. However, the pizza I had from Shazmin's the other week was absolutely atrocious. Borderline inedible. Not only was it undercooked, you stuffed the inside with random bits of meat, covered it in cheese, sauce and onions and hoped no one would notice? The pictures below show what I found. That looks like the left overs you get from a doner - when you can't reach it with the cutter, the chunky scraps most takeaways would throw away. But no, not you guys. You used it on a pizza. It's vile. Sadly this is what happens to a business when they prioritise profit over quality. You charge extortionate amounts for substandard food, cut corners and have dreadful customer service. It's terrifying to think you are opening another branch on Melton Road.

Over priced, paid £14 for 4 drumsticks.

Pizza was very doughy. Wasn't nice at all.

Peri peri chicken 🐔 is soo hot 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 you can only test hot in your mouth I will not recommend for children

It's good, clean and tidy, you will have a good time

Worst large chicken donner I've ever had. Went here expecting the fact that they've been around for a long time we'dget some decent food. Fistly ordered a large chicken donner. Paid £13.80 and got home within 20 min of receiving my food in the store I opened the box to taste some of the chips. I felt they were reheated. They weren't even hot so maybe they just were lying around. I was disappointed. And I opened the chicken donner but I saw a lot of paper rolls and it's too much oil!!!! And smell like so much chilli!!! It very unhealthy. But the staff is very rude as well. Stay away 0/5 rating!!

Awful for those with coeliac disease & despite it saying there's no gluten is certain dishes there's an obvious cross contamination and no warning. Gluten free is not just a diet but can have serious consequences so Shazmins needs to be more vigilant & ensure any customer's inquiring about gluten free options are told of cross contamination.

For the last couple of years I have been ordering pizza from Shazmin and I have been given great food and service however, 2 weeks ago I ordered pizza and it was not cooked fully (doughy) so I visited again today and I ordered pizza but explained to the staff that make sure the pizza is fully cooked but unfortunately I have been given the same type of uncooked pizza and I am very disappointed.

Absolutely love coming here. Quick and efficient

Customer service when ordering is good, but they are not ready to hear any criticism if they mess your food up. Dont take any ownership for mistakes!

Chicken and chips fantastic as always...seems to be a lot of new staff,struggling with orders,but the food was on point as ever !!

Chips were very yummy my husband came on Saturday bought curry sauce was not nice at all very disappointing

Chips were alright, curry sauce put me off and the fish was okay.

Just thought the guy at the till point has zero customer service The way Staff speak to each other is abhorrent Zero standards in etiquette Ordered donner and chips try. Was OK

Staff are ridiculously rude. Even amongst them they shout at each other like your in some ghetto. Masala fish is ok, but be prepared to be forgotten about while the rest of your order is sitting getting cold. 2 stars for fish,

Rang shazmins to place an order for a pizza but the line keeps on being busy and disgusting service by them they need to improve their service and my rating for this place is one star ⭐️ only as they won’t pick up calls and phone line being busy all the time 😡😡😡😡

Amazing Lovely Pizzas. It Stays Fresh For A Really Long Time, Will Buy Again!! ❤️ ❤️

Will travel out of my way for the peri chicken

They just make money never ever gets right order

Order here not good as it was before we didnt ask for chillies on our menu and they put chillies instead on large portion of chips and on my Donner kebab and they dont even refund

One of the great places in Leicester for halal fish and chip joints

Food is always in point and service is good

Just had the most amazing saucy cheesy chips and a southern fried fillet burger. This place never disappoints. Keep up the good work guys!!!
