Shilpa in South Cambridgeshire

Unfortunately, food I ordered was bland. No spice in any of the dishes. Small portion sizes too. Onon Bhaji was nice but small. Nice staff

Lovely food, very quiet when we went, mid week, we stumbled on this restaurant on our way home from visiting family! It's quite expensive for the portion size that you get, but we enjoyed it!

We had a family meal here on Saturday night and despite them being very busy, it was a great night. The food was excellent, staff friendly and atmosphere great. Would highly recommend and will we most certainly be going back.

Fantastic food beautifully served. A very stylish and welcoming restaurant.

Not much taste to the biryani. And we were not even offered the desert menus.

Nice food and staff. Prices acceptable

Fabulous service from Nayana, and Fabulous food.

Great Indian food, friendly and good service, prices were fair. Would definitely go again. Really enjoyed my meal.

Very good food, fair portions at a reasonable price.

Really great food, restaurant and service, the family even said it may be their favourite Indian this year!

We visited Shilpa to celebrate a family Birthday. Service was great and the food was superb. The decor of the restaurant was well designed and the background music was pleasant. I would highly recommend the Red Chilli Chicken, it was just the right amount heat. We will definitely return to sample the rest of the menu as well.

First time we have been here and it was a pleasure. Food, staff and service was spot on.. Will go again..👍

Problem with the wrong bill, but swiftly corrected

Great food and service from the Shilpa team. Interesting selection of Indian / Bangladeshi beers as well. We were a group of 16 and were very well looked after. Thank you.

Very expensive and not the best tasting curry. I doubt we’ll order from here again.

Lovely welcome, amazing food and great service. A must for curry lovers who fancy something slightly different. All the traditional options are available but this was probably the best Indian we have been to in a long time.

Best Indian we have ever had. We’ve been coming to shilpa now for about 4 years. We travel from Norwich especially for it! Visiting again soon. Would highly recommend.

Friendly service, really good Indian food 😊

Enjoyed a Sunday evening out here with some mates. Great food with good service. Well worth a visit.

Superb Indian food. Lovely restaurant

Best South Indian restaurant in europe. Credit goes to chef and the staff.🙂😄

Disappointed. My first time ordering takeaway from Shilpa and I have never had this type of Indian food. I believe the food was tweaked to be bland. I don’t think the food should be changed to meet the demographic preferences of the area. If I was in India they would not make the food different if they were serving to a non Indian person. They make the food the same spice and taste for everyone. I never asked for bland or non spicy so I believe the food should be prepared traditionally. As an Indian person who has gone to India many times I can say this food was appalling. The roti was stale, tasted like shop brought or a day old. Rice was bland. And the curry… I ordered the butter chicken and all I can say is I have never seen butter chicken like this in my life. It was bland, the meat was not marinated. The colour is usually a bright dark orange and taste is usually creamy and rich in spices. This was far from the traditional butter chicken. All the food was cold too. I ordered a starter of tandoori meat, butter chicken, garlic rice, 2 chapati and 1 Nan. This cost £35. Very poor value for money and will not be eating from here again.

Great food. Attentive service.

Always a pleasure to eat here. The food and service have been consistently excellent for years.

I've been here a few times and always been very impressed with the food and the service. Some of the best curry I've ever eaten. Great flavour and everything is cooked beautifully. The lamb is always especially tender and delicious.

Just two of us went at 9pm for dinner. A lovely evening, great food and fantastic service!

Father’s Day dinner, first time at restaurant. Lovely food, great service. Tables a bit small but otherwise no complaints!

As is with everything, the prices have gone up since our last visit, but the food and service is still fantastic.

Went here for a recent birthday, with 2 other friends and was most charmed. From the moment we arrived, sat down, ate and drank, the whole experience was just excellent. We were even blessed with complimentary drinks at the end of our meal, courtesy of the delightful manager. Would we come again? Absolutely 💯

Outstanding !! Good servers n captain. Great food. Good ambience.

Love this place, lovely atmosphere, high quality food and service.

We absolutely love Shilpa. The atmosphere, the food, the people who work there are all perfect. We have always felt really welcome there and always had the best time! Thank you Shilpa!

Fantastic service and fantastic food highly recommend one of the best restaurants in Cambridgeshire.

Wonderful service, wonderful food. Loved it so much I came back 2 consecutive weeks.

Fantastic food and service in a lovely place. High recommend.

Very nice place, music is good at the right volume, very good service, and very good food. Would recommend.

One of the best Indian meals we’ve had in the UK. 5* Food, lovely staff, lovely decor and really happy to have found this place on the way back from St Ives. Will definitely stop here again in the future and recommend anyone else to stop by too. Free parking on site, easy access and very clean. All food high quality and very reasonably priced also.

Beautiful food! Always fresh and delicious. Great service too! Be mindful, we were offered poppadoms to start with (fully expecting that we'd be charged for them of course) - didn't realise it would be £9 for 6 poppadoms and an additional £4.50 for the chutneys which weren't mentioned, just arrived. So quite expensive! But the food really is out of this world and all the staff are great.

Really nice food lovely atmosphere all in all a great evening

Fantastic deal on Wednesday evening! Food and service were impeccable as usual. £20.00 deal cannot be beaten!

Absolutely the best Indian I’ve EVER had! Vegetable massala was exquisite. Full of flavour & not sweet! Definitely recommend this place. Staff are smart, professional & friendly. Brilliant.

Genuinely the tastiest meal we have had as a family in a long time!! Service was excellent, will be coming back.

Wonderful! Great variety on the menu, flavoursome and non oily dishes. Friendly staff, great service and a great time had by all. Will definitely return!

Fantastic restaurant very very friendly, cannot do enough to help you nothings to much trouble ..

We have visited shilpa several times and the food is consistently super delicious and the service is excellent!! Thank you so much and keep up the food job 👌🥰

Great Indian, lovely food, good service and nice ambiance.

Amazing take away with brilliant and diverse range of flavours and always lovely service, great for a big treat!

I am moving from the area soon but have to leave a review. I know everything is going up at the moment, but £9 for a glass of wine is scandalous, in my opinion. Amazing food, but you are pricing people out of going out

Been eating here for 4 years and always a great meal. Great service and always consistent through the years. Nice simple menu with all the usuals. Always go for the specialty dishes.

Great food, great service, can’t recommend enough.

Our first visit today and unless a new chef is hired, also the last. We got a takeaway. Ordered online which was easy, so was the pickup. The restaurant has a very pleasant and clean feel and the person who gave us our order was friendly and courteous. The food was well packed and ready when the website said it would be. Sadly, that is where the positives end. The food was by far the worst Indian food we ever had. We ordered: South Bengal Fish Curry House Paneer Vegetable Massala Vegetable Passanda All 4 dishes were bland, lacked any spices and what they lacked in spice, tried making up with sugar. All 4 bland and sickly sweet, to the point one couldn’t tell them apart. 3 of us ate it, all agreed that this was the worst Indian food either ever had. It is a pity, I was so hopeful.

Great service! Great food! Excellent staff 🙂

Beautiful food from the politest staff you'll ever meet. 5 star service even just picking up a take away.

Good service and menu change makes it easier to order. Mine and my wife's Bhuna was well cooked and tasty!

Thoroughly Recommended whether it be for Business or Pleasure. Very hospitable staff. Excellent food. A great choice of food. Many thanks!!!!🙂

Very friendly staff food is lovely

Exceptional food, realy good flavours and attention to detail. Highly recommended.

Best Indian food in the area. We get take away from here often, and never had a bad meal. Food always cooked to perfection, tasty and piping hot. Service excellent, attentive and freindly, cannot fault them.

We had a lovely family meal for my son's birthday. Food was delicious with great service. We are so lucky to have this gem on our doorstep.

Amazing takeaway tonight!! Food was piping hot, fresh and full of flavour. I would recommend this restaurant

Fantastic food and great service. The fish specials are particularly good. Great to have in the village. Highly recommended.

Unbelievable. As succinctly put by one of my fellow diners this is a "restaurant that serves Indian food, not an Indian restaurant". The restaurant, customer service and food are of such a high standard you'd be hard pressed to find a better Indian anywhere. As a self confessed Indian aficionado I can confidently say that there is no better Indian in Cambridgeshire or Bedfordshire, I should know, I've tried them all.

High quality, fresh-tasting food. The Bengal prawn dish was really succulent but all the dishes were most enjoyable. Strongly recommended.

Best hotel, good service, and their staff was polite and their Food just MARVELLOUS 🌻❤️❤️

Lovely atmosphere and food was amazing. The staff were welcoming and friendly.

Last Friday a group of 9 of us wanted to eat out, a last minute decision. We booked a table around 9.00. and had a delicious meal. The waiters were very friendly and helpful, the food was hot and tasty. Just want we wanted. Many thanks to all the staff at Shilpa.

Stopped off by chance. Ordered 4 different takeaway meals Had drinks while waiting. Staff were very welcoming and the food was outstanding. Will definitely visit again and eat in this time. 10/10.

Best curry I have had, great service couldn't fault the place👍😎

I've been eating here for 15 years, still by far the best Indian restaurant in Cambridge 😊

Nice curry and friendly staff but very expensive. Couple of papadoms with chutneys and traditional curry with rice and naan plus two beers is nearly fifty quid.

One of the best Indians I’ve ever been to. Great service, even better food

Limited menu unlike other Indian restaurants in the Huntingdonshire area. Shilpa is well priced and food is fantastic 😊

I rang pre-booking letting them know for eight people on a birthday with two kids requesting two highchairs when we got to the door they told us no kids allowed after six after checking their policy it was clearly lies very rude staff at the door don’t recommend for family meal

Another hidden gem, tried this place for a birthday meal a couple of weeks ago. And the food was lovely, some different dishes on menu i havent seen before. But tasted great. Best naan and poppodoms too. Can well reccomend.

Had a gr8 meal, all dishes full of flavour 😋

Very good quality, authentic Indian food. The service was also very good. I would highly recommend it.

Such a great place to be. It's a decent place

Took the curry club here tonight (9 curry loving men) our monthly boys outing Absolutely stunning food and service Adu the main man looking after us 👌 10/10

Amazing Indian food! Everything tasted as good as home made 👌 beautiful decor as well. Chef made us a delicious chilli pickle too, that was so good and fiery masha'Allah, loved it! Thank you 😊

Shilpa's food is outstanding and the service is fantastic. My first choice for my birthday get together.

Food and service were exceptional but the prices have gone up and are pretty extortionate now. Really like this reaturant and have used it a lot for the best local indian cuisine, but the prices being what they are now simply mean I will very rarely want to eat there again.

food was excellent,staff were attentive and friendly

Yet another little gem of a Indian restaurant/takeaway. I ordered a chicken patia with onion and garlic rice. Onion bhaji and a keema nan and I have to say the taste and quality of the food was outstanding its well worth a visit...

Me and my partner come here usually a couple times a month, and every time the food and service is amazing. My personal favourite local choice of place to eat.

Lovely restaurant to go to. Food was delicious, not too big of portions,.Prices were fair. Staff were friendly, polite, welcoming & attentative. Shall definitely go back x

Absolutely love it here. The staff are amazing, very friendly and professional. Food here is really fantastic too. Nice relaxing environment with pleasant decor.

The food was amazing and the service was first class. Definitely worth a trip.

Just had a wonderful meal - service and food great!

Best around by far ,always fantastic..Staff are amazing...

Had a wonderful meal here last weekend. The service was friendly and attentive and the food was outstanding. Not your typical curry house. Personable and welcoming. Food beautifully presented

Really good place with amazing Indian food. Love that tingling feeling after tasty food. Sorry for putting just two pictures but main was looking so amazing that I simply forgot to take pictures before enjoying in meal. Staff is also needed to be mentioned, excellent and fast service close enough to help in every way but not to disturb your meal.

Absolutely lovely food and 1st class service. Can't recommend highly enough.

Shilpa is a really nice restaurant, relaxed formal table service, food always cooked well, ready times are good and meals with friends flow very nicely with enough time to chat, but not so much that anyone wonders where the food is 😁. I'd happily recommend and will use frequently myself.

Amazing food even better service

Best authentic Indian restaurant we have found. Excellent range of dishes cooked and presented to perfection. Staff always very attentive, helpful and discreet.

Always decent, good quality and generous portions. I particularly recommend the lamb tenga mitta - nice dish!

Lovely place and lovely food. Very nice waiters. Nice and cozy waiting room

One of the best Indian restaurants I have ever been too. The quality of the food is first class with an excellent menu selection

Picked up a takeaway, ordered on arrival which was a breeze, restaurant has and a nice waiting area away from seated diners. Food arrived quickly well packaged and it was amazing. There is a large carpark. Highly recommended 👌

Simply the very best Indian food I have ever tasted. Service was exceptional, very clean, comfortable and nicely furnished. Will definitely visit again. Thank you.
