Last minute recommendation by a friend. Wasn’t disappointed at all. This is possibly the nicest curry we have had in a long time 👍 Great prices and service spot on. Very generous portions also so don’t over order hahah We will definitely be returning 👌

19/06/23 We paid an impromptu visit with my Brother and his Wife as they were over from Germany. Very pleasant young woman came to the table and took our order and also brought our Poppadum's and chutney tray, She then took our orders for the starters and mains. The starters arrived, our mixed kebab was an excellent sharer, my Brother had some chicken pakora's and his wife had some potato pakora's. All were very tasty and perfectly cooked. For the mains we had two keema madras curries, one with chapatti's and the other with pilau rice. My wife had a Chicken Bhuna with chapatti's and I had a keema vindaloo with chapatti's. No complaints from anyone. The food was very good and the service was good but just not enthusiastic enough for me and the atmosphere was a little lacking, It's a shame because with a little more effort it could have been a lot more enjoyable. If you aren't bothered by the atmosphere and want a good curry, give it a go, you'll be glad you did.

Rang at 5.15 to book our food to be delivered at 7pm. At 7.25 rang to ask where the food was… lied to us saying he’s just round the corner. Clearly not as it took until 7.40 to arrive. Food was poor quality, thin cold naan bread, hardly any meat in my partners curry, my biryani wasn’t edible. Very, very disappointed. This was a last chance after previous very late deliveries. Won’t be wasting our time trying again😔

As others have said,the service in the restaurant is now far too slow.We waited one hour for our food! They seem to prefer to prepare takeaways. The staff are poor these days.Used to be much better and friendlier. Better to close the restaurant and concentrate on takeaways. Sad to see our regular place go down hill.

Food was nice but service extremely slow. Waited over an hour for starters to come and then another hour after we had finished the main courses to come. Had to ask for a jug of water 3 times before it arrived. Judging by the amount of takeaway bags on the passe they are more interested with sorting the takeaway orders rather than customers actually eating in the restaurant. At the end of the meal had to ask 4 times for the bill, the staff were too busy setting up tables for the following day.

Very happy . As a group of 2 couples we dined on a busy Saturday night. Quickly shown to our table . Attentative waiter without been intrusive. The food was absolutely delicious. Fresh , tasty and plentiful . I would recommend to anyone and can't wait to try other dishes from their classic British asian menu and traditional recipes too.

Reserved a table for a family meal for 6pm after ordering the starters we sat and waited almost 45 minutes , the restraunt wasn’t overly busy inside however I noticed a lot of takeaway meals going out , eventually we got our starters then after we had finished waited over an hour for our main course, surely if you had customers in the restraunt they should take priority over takeaways , meal was nothing special had better in the past very dissapointing , when it came to pay we asked to pay seperately as some had ordered drinks etc to be told this wasn’t possible and to divide the bill ourselves or just split it equally between the party for ease , the whole evening had been poor for service , but this just tipped the scales for me I can honestly say this has been the worst customer service I have received in any restraunt and is safe to say I will not be returning again , hope your takeaway service is worth putting your restraunt customers to the bottom of the list , we spent pennies short of £200 pounds and if the service had been better would have been a good tip but safe to say alas on this occasion we did not leave a tip .

Booked over the phone on the night. Booked table for 7.30. Turned up at 7.30 to a packed foyer. At least 25 people waiting to be seated. I asked the guy behind the counter how long we would be waiting, and he said a long time. So we just turned around, left and went elsewhere. This was our first visit, having recently moved to the area. But never again. If we had just turned up without booking, fair enough, but we had only booked an hour before. Very poor service, and better training of staff taking bookings is needed.

We booked the day before online, easy process and quick email back . Arrived 1855 as table was booked for 1900hrs, waiting room was packed , no social distancing as it express many times around the place . People were walking out,Man behind the counter had gloves on and touched everything thing , loads of cross infection there. Not even the menus wiped down . Waited 1hr before we got seated the owner apologised , said it was Boris fault? Which infuriated me,another 20mins before someone came to take our order. 2045hrs got our starter, Main course arrived 30mins after that , which was just warm and like a stew ,ordered chicken and prawn balti not hot no spice just poor, ate it anyway because I was so peed off , on observation as the owner annoyed us with blaming it on Boris, staff had no masks on while serving, tables were’t 2 metres apart which again didn’t help as table next to us were coughing and splirting as well as drunk. Waiter was running around sweating all over the place . We have been here many times but no more

Service is good, staff are friendly and polite, menu is extensive and everything is cooked fresh from the semi open kitchen. You can take your own alcohol as they don't have a licence but this makes it even more appealing as it is really good value for money. It is absolutely my favourite curry house in the world and nothing beats a Shezzans!

We went to this restaurant without any expectations and was really surprised by the taste. Paneer Tikka was the best (of all the places I have tried in and around Leeds)We visited this place twice till now, food was really good but the service was very slow both the times. We didn't make any pre-booking so were given the table after few minutes wait and our order was also taken pretty soon, good and friendly staff but it took very long time for the food to be brought to our tables. So may be not the right place if your in a hurry or if your are starving like we were on that day.

We visited as part of a group, and what a shambles the whole experience was. After we were seated, we had to prompt the waiter for menus and drinks. Eventually orders were taken which was relatively straight forward and the waiter was friendly. After this the problems started. 45 minutes for starters to arrive. About 5 minutes before this I asked for the kids meals to come as soon as they were ready as they had already been waiting long enough. 3 kids meals appeared almost straight away. All 3 lukewarm and wrong. How on earth the chef got fish from fried chicken is beyond me. Sending the incorrect meals back wasnt an option due to how long it was tsking for food to appear. After the starters were cleared away after sitting with the empty plates for around 20 mins, the wait for the main course began. A further 20 mins. I was on the verge of cancelling due to the kids becoming bored and the fact my hunger had all but passed. The mains arrived and all curries looked the same. Apparently they tasted ok but we're lukewarm. I ordered tandoori chicken tikka on a sizzling platter - the chicken was dry and verging on Burnt - not worth the menu price. It came with rice and curry sauce, which i had to prompt the waiter to bring me.When it came time to pay you have to go to the counter in the entrance where we had to wait around 5 minutes before anyone sorted it. It is all worked out on calculator and you don't actually see the bill. When we questioned the kids meals we were told money would be knocked off and we were charged a total of £50. After we left we were convinced we were actually over charged...after working it out we were over charged and no money was knocked off due to their incompetence. Also this is a cash only restaurant (strange. Maybe a little dodgy??) So make sure u take plenty of cash with you. And make sure you calculate the cost before you go pay so they don't rip you off.Also worth noting there is no baby change facility. I had to decide weather to change my son on a bathroom floor. Or the restaurant floor. Neither hygienic nor appropriate.Would I return? Not a chance. Bradford is full of amazing curry restaurants. And this place is and over priced takeaway mascarading as a restaurant. It doesn't even come close to the majority of them.

Fabulous food slightly more expensive than your box standard takeaway but you get what you pay for and never been disappointed yet... fabulous friendly service and lovely manager who is always helpful and chatty. Some people have complained in reviews that they have difficulty getting through on the phone but if you get through to a restaurant/takeaway on the first ring you have to ask yourself why they are NOT that busy. They probably don't have the abundance of happy customers to look after like shezzans do. Top marks!!!

Visited when the weather had been snowy they hadn't cleaned the front bar reception floor so was full of dirt from diners coming in. The food was ok although noticed a chef using his finger to stir the pilau rice. The manager is very loud to customers and talking down to groups of girls. I have been on different occasions and the curries are basically the same a part from spicy or mild. So understand in cold weather it's not easy to keep floors clean but it would be nice to see effort being made.

Went here for a birthday meal, it isn't licensed so took wine as we normally do. My friend brought a small fruit shoot water bottle for her 2 daughters (aged 2 and 4) as they are easy for them to drink, most restaurants like that don't do children's drinks in squeezy bottles. The boss came over and shouted my name (as the booking was in my name) and shouted 'you can't bring your own soft drinks I have to make some money' this I completely understand but this could have been done discretely instead the whole restaurant heard and it was quite embarrassing. All starters came out on time except mine which was completely missed I had to wait ten minutes for it to be cooked. Following this, my fathers curry was completely missed so he had to sit and watch us eat our food whilst his was cooking. Make sure to check your bill they throw poppodoms at you before you have time to sit down and when we left we noticed we had been charged £15 for 10 poppodoms and 2 pickle trays! And they have the cheek to say they have to make money on soft drinks! All curries are similar in taste, I thought I would try a different curry as I always get tikka masala and it tasted exactly the same! To say you can take your own drinks you don't save any money at all as they make up for it on the sundries (our curry and starters for 2 ppl came to £24 yet our total bill for 2 came to £35???-£13 on 2 poppodoms, chips and a garlic naan) not to mention you don't see your bill they just add it up on a calculator on your way out . Really disappointed on the food, price and service -won't be going back again

Been here a few times and the food can range from lovely and tasty to just passable. The service can also be exceptional but on this occasion we had to ask several time for a jug of water and clearing away was a dramatic production. My friend and I had very different dishes but they looked and tasted the same even though they were a nice dish. It was busy but overall the waiting times seemed just right and they were happy to box up left overs. The food it's self was hot enough and tasted delicious but not sure our order was right. Do like to eat here but on occasions the food is not as good and spice overkill can come in to play.

Our local Italian restaurant disappeared and was reborn as Shezzaans.so went to try it out. Very disappointed. Bring your own wine. No card payments. Had to go to Tesco's for cash to pay the bill. Only average service and the food doesn't come close to Villagio's masterpieces . Luckily we found Il Tartufo. It's only a short distance further in Wyke but well worth an extra litre of petrol.

Where to start. First don't bother trying to ring them. They don't answer the phone at peek times.So I drove up as I live local. Ordered food to takeaway. 40 minutes it took to arrive. On to the starter puri chicken was good samosas were bought in catering type and are tiny and definitely not worth ordering. I can purchase the same ones at another place for half the price.Mains were good but not a huge portion. They do not come with rice or chapattis and you must buy them separately. This makes for a very expensive takeaway. Considering hie much rice or chapattis actually cost to make I think the owners are been a little greedy in not supplying them with main. I enjoyed the food but I can get a better curry cheaper and faster elsewhere.

Took three teenagers and the hubby for a spur of the moment meal last night. Friday... no booking. It was packed. However, the very friendly old boy on reception said he would get us a table as soon as he could.We only had to wait 10 minutes and worth the wait. The food was amazing and good value. £60 for 5 of us including starters and sides. If I had to give a criticism we waited a while between courses. Too long but it's also a takeaway and I think cooking for takeaway delays the diners. They also ran out of boiled rice which I had a great joke with the old boy about... WHICH CURRY HOUSE RUNS OUT OF BOILED RICE?? However, the offered pilau instead so all good.All in all, 10 minute walk from my house, I'm kicking myself it's the first time we've been and will definitely be making it a favourite instead of being lazy and waiting 50 minutes for another local takeaway which we rarely enjoy.

Visited this restaurant in July with my young family. We went on a Sunday night which was a change for us and it was nice and quiet. My young family love the waiters here and love the family naan breads! Great food and good price.

Came here with family for the first time.. Had the early bird menu £10.95 for 3 courses. Gotta say it was lovely, the starters, main and even the tea afterwards was a lovely brew (even if it wasn't chai) which I really fancied. Staff were very attentive. Will be calling again !!

We visited this evening for the second time this month...the food is absolutely beautiful, I would go as far as to say the best curry in Bradford. The staff are an absolute credit to the business, so helpful and friendly. I will be recommending to all my friends and family. The Royal Delight special was absolute perfection. Thank you all for a great evening we will be back:)

Shezzaans has a lot of positives going for it, the restaurant does not sell alcohol but does allow you to bring your own along and with no charge for corkage.The decor and atmosphere are very nice and make for a good impression, the restaurant on the Saturday evening when we visited was busy, but the service was professional and quick.My only real gripe was the starter, i ordered onion Bajis, but the portion was tiny when it arrived and not worth the money, they tasted fine as did all the food, so why skrimp on the size, surely the overall customer satisfaction is the main thing, so be a little more generous Shezzaans. All in all, i would go back, but not order the starter.

we were regulars at this restaurant in and out because the food was just has good ti have delivered which is unusual. Have been using the place since it opened here until recently. We got a curry and starters delivered last week and to say it was ok is putting it mildly. It has got the same owner but we do not know if the chefs have changed because it was very poor indeed. Will be finding a new place.

We decided to try early bird menu, stated this as we were greeted, discussed again with waiter what the meal consisted of and ordered accordingly, during meal noticed sign saying cash only, informed staff that didn't have cash and agreed to go to cash point, on return to pay price asked was substantially more than menu price! Owner stated we hadn't informed him we wanted the early bird menu, I stated I did this on arrival, then he said it's after 7pm now! I said we were seated at 630pm! Then he said we didn't inform waiter of our request for early bird menu, once again stated we did and chatted at length, he continued to argue, to summarise it was a poor experience, mediocre food, lousy service, avoid this poor restaurant at all costs.

We have been recommended this restaurant a few times. So tonight was the first time of trying. Once seated we where given menu and we decided what we where all having then my husband said do you do a deal, where you can have a starter as well as a main course, as we where told you did. The waiter said yes it's the early bird so we where then given that menu to choose from. So make sure you ask when you go in. The starter was nice but the curry all tasted the same there was no difference in the masala and bhuna. I thought it was very over priced for a average curry. Could of got a nicer cheaper take away. Would I go again NO.

We've visited here before & dined in & it was great. Tonight we got a takeout for 3 (1 of which was a child) and for £24 after the 10% off for collection was enough to feed a sparrow let alone 3! One dish was a chicken tikka masala which tasted nothing like one, full of nuts??? & had hardly any chicken in it. Chapatti's & nan were wafer thin too. A real let down. Another one off the list!

I went a couple of months ago for a birthday meal and it was great! The food was that enjoyable, I've started ordering takeaways from here now! I always get the butter lamb - two words.. mouth watering!The staff I think need to work on their service skills in the restaurant, our waiter came across a little impatient when we were placing an order at the table because we were ordering a few sides and he lost track and got snappy. However when I last ordered a takeaway, the staff on the phone were really friendly and full of banter! Highly recommended!

My husband and I visited this restaurant on 29th February as it was our proposal anniversary. It was Villagio's when he took me there hoping I would propose. He ended up doing it instead but we have been going back every 4 years since (& as Villagio's many times in between!) Walking in we were surprised to see that the decor hadn't changed at all. The welcome was not as warm but friendly enough. As it is not licensed there is no studying the menu over drinks in the bar which is a shame. We noticed when we sat down how cold it was - I had to put my coat back on! My husband ate off the Early Bird menu which runs until 7pm. He had kebab for starter & thought it was ok. For main he had Chicken Madras and found it harsh tasting as I did mine. I have a stomach problem so can't have anything too spicy so had Butter Lamb which was ok but as I said harsh tasting. I don't mean hot - it's the taste that a lot of authentic curries have and is not to our taste although from reading previous reviews others liked it. For my starter I had butterfly prawns which suggested king prawns but they were very small although very nice. It was reasonably priced but we are unlikely to return. Don't know what will happen in 4 years time! The service was reasonable but not exceptional. When we left we noticed from stepping into the restaurant to leaving had only taken 1 hour!! So hardly a special occasion restaurant more of a cafe experience. If you go on a cold night wrap up warm!

This restaurant is excellent. It has everything, great food, fantastic service and a friendly family atmosphere. It's bring your own beer, which keeps your bill down and corkage is free. What more can anyone want. Exceptional.

A friend from down south was visiting from "darn sarf" and wanted to sample a Bradford Curry. Since it opened we have meant to go along but never got round to it so we booked for 5 of us.Our greeting was very lukewarm from the gentleman that was clearly the boss, who simply took out name and asked us to wait but made no effort to interact with us.We were shown to our table and placed our orders. Again, this was a simple transaction, no interaction, no friendliness.We all had a starter and a main and everything was OK, just OK. The service was the same.Oh, don't forget your wallet and the trip to the cash machine before you arrive. Cash only!!!Definitely not on my list of places to return to.

We went there for a birthday celebration for my Son, have been a few times before but this time it was awful..we booked the table at least 5 days in advance for 8 people, when we arrived our booking was not even recorded, so instead of being seated at 7.30pm we did not get our table until 8.10pm, we sat down and ordered our starters and main at the same time.. and waited 3/4 hour for the meals,out of the 8 meals 5 were returned as was nann bread because it was clap cold, my husbands re warmed meal came back with splashes from the microwave, not even replaced into a clean dish...one dish of curry looked and tasted like soup!!, when we complained to the manager he was not happy at all that we had done so as it showed quite clearly in his body language! like..how dare you?? in my book he needs a lesson in customer service and how to deliver it, we got the bill and to our astonishment we had been charged 1.00 each for popadoms, we got 2 each so 16.00 on just that, they had the decency to knock of 10% from the bill, however it will be a while if ever we go back again. the problem they have at busy times is too many customers and not enough staff, no time to spend with customers. the staff are run off their feet and they are not to blame, I should imagine is the chef behind the scenes. better off going to the old style curry houses, you get much better food and definitely much better customer service than you get there...oooh and another thing, the previous times we have been have seen a decline in the portion sizes too, I always have lamb and spinach, but the portion was tiny,,,very disappointed.

This a great place to eat. I visited here with 8 friends for a Christmas catch up, the staff were extremely accommodating and friendly, chatting too. The food was delicious, very fresh and tasty. You can take your own alcohol too which they will refrigerate for you. The cost was reasonable and worth it for the portions. Will definitely be returning soon!!

We went as a group of 12 ladies. The food was tasty and the staff were friendly. The orders were taken with military presicion and everything was brought out as ordered. One minor thing was one of the ladies said her curry was too spicy, even after it went back although no body else had any complaints. I had a veggie Karhai extra saucy and it was amazing. Also the starters were very nice all fresh ingredients. Bring your own drink too which was nice for everyone.I will definitely go again

Went on a Monday night and had a lovely meal. Each one of us had different starters and a different main dish. Each course arrived all at the same time, all lovely and hot, both in flavour and temperature. Reasonable priced and attentive service. The only down side being the size of tables. They serve everything on separate plates and there is just not enough room on the table for everything. Great meal though and an enjoyable time.

We go to Shezzaans on a regular basis. We find the staff very friendly, especially the manager Akhtar, he always makes us very welcome. We've tried a few different dishes and have always been impressed. The Baltis are very tasty, as is the mixed starter. The bring your own booze policy is great and can make for a very reasonably priced night out. Looking forward to visiting again soon.

Ordered a takeaway took an hour and 40 minutes for delivery and was stone cold when it arrived. The curry was full of chilli seeds and we asked for it mild, we rang up to complain to be hurled a lot of abuse down the phone from a member of staff. We won't be going here again that's a fact.
