Shimla Restaurant in Doncaster

Staff so friendly brilliant bunch. Food is fantastic plus bring your own alcohol means lower price bills at the end of the evening. All round good restaurant

Fantastic food and awesome people

Boring Bland tasteless food, lacking of flavour & spices. If you are a “Korma” eater then you will be at the right place. Most of the meat was dry, tasted dry & reheated. We gave a honest feedback but they didn’t showed any interest. bad example of Indian food. The only plus was bring you own drinks. Don’t waste your hard earned money there.

Excellent restaurant and staff. Food is excellent whether eating in or taking away.

Food the best in town and top class service! Can’t do enough for you!! Would go every night if I could

Great food, great service, great atmosphere

Incredible curry, friendly staff and amazing service both in restaurant and takeaway.

Food was great. Really tasty and really good value. Definitely recommend

Excellent food fantastic service!

We are a curry club and visit lots of different Indian restaurants,, we 7 of us decided to pay this one a visit, the food was nothing special and they missed off one of our dishes, they gave us an extra rice which we didn’t order but they charged us for it, the pickle tray is very very poor, and there service was shocking, we asked for a jug of water halve a dozen times and still didn’t get any, we didn’t get any napkins, it was just very very poor and won’t be revisiting, like I said we have tried 100’s and this is just not in the top 80

Had our first delivery from Shimla and couldn't fault it !! It was delivered on time , the food was delicious and plenty of it - I will definitely be using them again and would strongly recommend ☺️☺️

Can't lie after decorating all day we was looking forward to this take away, but didn't enjoy it one bit. Food was barely warm, didn't enjoy the sauces on the curries, Poppadoms really well done and naan had burnt bits all over it. I'm hoping it's cause there busy on a Saturday evening as was such ashame.

Hi new to the restaurant, didn't book got shown to the back of the restaurant fixed seating , which is very uncomfortable . Had to waiting to be served while other people got served tgat xame in after us . The food was ok and hot, but I needed some flavour. I wouldn't go back in a hurry. What a shame ......

My favourite restaurant. Food always top class service always with a smile and the staff are knowledgeable and polite I’ve probably had every meal on the menu and everything is amazing

ONE OF WORST OVER PRICED TAKEAWAYS I'VE EVER HAD!! Drove 5 miles here last night as was recommended by family. Meant to be 10% off for collection orders. I went in and ordered off their takeaway menu on the bar area. Asked if 10% off and the lying b****** said he had put the 10% discount on and yet it cost more than on the menu! Think it is patronising when they speak to you like you are that stupid you can't add up and just think by telling you there's a discount you would believe them. Soon as anywhere is dishonest I lose trust. I kept my mouth shut acted polite got my food and left. Get home to both starters king prawn chatt and chicken chatt tasteless with only enough salad for not even one. 2 curries, one a speciality both tasting like plain chicken tikka in a watery tomato sauce with no spice no flavour. Chips were small and naan was soggy. £34.70 after discount! Wouldn't mind paying for good food but this was a let down and meal wasn't worth half. I've lived in Bradford and Leeds for nearly 40 years. I know a good curry and when someone's playing a fast one. Untrustworthy penny pinching poor customer service appalling food. Hope this costs you customers because you don't deserve them.

Ordered take out curries were bland lamb full of fat rice was disgusting more like couscous best part of meal was the pickle tray wouldn’t recommend

Good food Good service friendly staff

Sunday fixed priced banquet, worth every penny, very nice food pleasant staff.

One of the best in town and beyond. Excellent service, beautiful meals, and allowing you to bring your own booze is just a cherry on top. Dont change!

Ordered a takeaway, first time we'd been there, it was very nice will definitely go again

Been to quite a few Indian restaurants in the past and I have to admit that I'm impressed with Shimla. Excellent service from all the friendly staff who are always smiling. Very good freshly cooked food here that doesn't hurt the pocket and I recommend you should try. There are vegetarian options for the kids kes of my other half. All in all a great night out and I'll definitely be going there again

I usually have taken aways but many people eat in ! Take your own drink 🍸 no alcohol licence

Our second takeaway from Shimla and this one was the best ever! Had 2 of the specialities with accompaniments and they did not disappoint!! Our new favourite Indian takeaway that deliver to our area which is hard to find! Thank you to all the staff and merry Christmas

Really tasty food, good service and nice atmosphere

Our takeaway tonight was first class. Delivered on time, balti dishes delicious, all sundry items fresh and tasty. Love this restaurant

Fantastic, will definitely go again

Fantastic food great service and brilliant value for money, we had booked for 30 people birthday party and the food and service was second to none 🎉👏👏

Had a takeaway. The prices were a fair bit higher than other takeaways, so we expected to get something more special. Really watery Khorma, nann bread under cooked, chicken was really dry. The only thing ok was the rice, but nothing special. Ended up throwing it away. I've noticed feedback that reads the same as mine, so it looks like they aren't doing anything about it. Never again

Worst Indian takeaway we've ever had! Watery curry, cold starters, everything was tasteless Inc sides and even naan bread! For nearly £40 was really disappointing, never again

Absolutely brilliant place for food. Best I've had in a long time. Love the fact that you can take your own alcohol. My new favourite Indian

One the tastiest restaurants in Doncaster.

This was my first visit here after enjoying many delicious takeouts. The food was amazing as always the onion Bhaji's are the best I have ever had. For main I had Chicken rogan josh again beautifully presented & tasted wonderful. Here you take your own alcohol as they don't have a drinks licence. I can highly recommend here & will definately be going back xx

Always good food....delivered within hour....

I go every two or three weeks. This place is fantastic. I tell all my friends about it. Good food good pricing and nice staff and atmosphere.

The food was OK ..wasn't very keen on the chicken tikka masala was very strong didn't taste like it had any cream in it ..service wasn't amazing eaither but we still enjoyed our night x

I ate some Chicken and I got food poisoning

My wife and I couldn't fault the meal and service. Excellent.

First visit and won't be our last, nice atmosphere and lovely food. Friendly staff. Well worth a visit.

Excellent service. Gorgeous food. Excellent delivery staff. Would highly recommend.

Excellent service and food well worth a visit

This restaurant takes a lot of beating when it comes to great flavors and constant high standards in cleanliness and service.

Stunning tasty food Freshly cooked and delivered according to instructions Highly recommended

What a great place not too big, good atmosphere food was great and reasonable priced as well bring your own alcohol

Bit cold when we first sat down. Food delicious and good portion size. Ladies wc door lock was broken....bit awkward! Lovely night out for us girls

Absolutely disgusting service! Ordered £70 worth wise food for my husbands birthday - it turned up 40 mins late with only half of order! 20 mins after my naan’s turned up and another 30 minutes after my starter did! All the feats was absolutely spoiled! Food was cold, started arrived over an hour after the main! And the top of the cake. - I was shouted at by the restaurant manager when i tried r chase my order saying that everyone can make a mistake ???? Shouts not an apology! I hope there are better places in this area! Absolutely disgusting

The pilau Rice was cold brown rice, the tikka masala sauce was very watery and tasteless. The chicken however was nice. The other meal again the sauce was watery and tasteless.

Recommended to try so ordered takeaway.unfortunately the rice was watery as if been sat in water. Both currys watery the tikka marsella especially lack of flavour. The Jalfrizi lack of flavour no heat apart from one whole chilli. Not for us.

Had a good night food was good and the service was was second to none. Price of the meal was fare and didn't have to wait ages between courses. We left the restaurant's friendly atmosphere with full a belly and a smile on our face. Thanks guys see you again soon.

Always good quality food. fast friendly service. Enjoy evreytime i order .

Typical South Yorkshire curry house. Good service but the usual offerings adjusted for the local pallet. Disappointing when you have lived in Bradford and experienced the curries there.

Regularly visit Shimla. Love this place our favourite Indian restaurant. Never disappointed. Great food, great staff. 👍 😁

Always a great evening, love the booths, private and intimate especially for a or romantic evening! lovely fresh cooked food and bring your own alcohol adds to the experience as You can have your favourite tipple and keep your costs reasonable and therefore visit twice as often😉😋👌

Love ordering from this restaurant. I’ve had Nababee Nagh on a few occasions, but tonight I had noticed the smell and taste was different. I instantly recognised the carolina reaper in the mix. I understand that can be used to make it spicey, but it changed the taste of the dish.

Great service. Very Friendly. Amazing Food. Highly Recommend

Very busy last night but staff were still friendly and had time for you.

First takeaway last night from here, firstly I spoken to a friendly helpful person on the telephone. He explained about the app I could use. Food came on time and was so happy to find an actual Indian takeaway that tastes how it should be. Thankyou, really happy would recommend to anyone!

Food lukewarm. 2 hours delivery. Chip bag soggy so split and chips all over carrier. Rang to complain and they were rude.

Lovely meal, good value for money. Every thing red hot and service amazing.

Lovely food. Friendly staff who offer good service.

Excellent food and ambiance a hidden gem superb cusomer service and all for a decent price . Visited many times now it has become my favourite Indian outshines other local eateries once you visit you will keep returning Another great night at Shimla was very busy had a wait between courses for first time after many visits .but didn't spoil our eve well done Shimla

Excellent food. We ordered different dishes and loved that they clearly weren't made from the same base with minor changes (as can happen with other takeaways). Tasty, flavourful and good portions. Best Indian I've eaten outside India!

Arrived early doors for a Birthday meal for my wife. Very attentive staff, great surroundings and quick service. That menu is toooooo good. We will have keep coming back to sample many others we like. Had to 'waddle' home nicely full, as always. Thank you Shimla team.

Great food, too much to eat on the set menu, we had to take doggy bags home 🤣

Really good food and portion sizes, friendly staff and reasonably priced. one of the best curry's I have had around this area. Highly recommend .

Food fantastic but service slow. Booked a table for six, arrived on time and table was not ready, we were all starving. After 10-15 mins table was ready. Menus were slow being offered, they could have offered them whilst we had to wait for table. Order taken and starters arrived with a mix up. The food was excellent, well prepared and tasty. Mains came and 3 of us were without our Pilu rice, no staff to be seen, eventually the phone rang and I called out to the staff member and eventually our rice arrived, by this time our dinning companions were halfway through their meal. It is a real shame the service was so painfully slow and not up too a decent standard as the food was excellent.

Unbelievably awful. Has to be the worst ever curry. Was expecting a lovely takeaway treat but instead got a tasteless watery curry. I had chicken tikka biriani and husband had chick tikka masala (which was a vivid fake red colour) but both were equally dreadful. They must have worked hard to get it that bad, goodness knows who the “chef” was - have they ever cooked before?

Ordered friday food is normally good but tonight was bland tasteless and very disappointing

Food was nice,.service was passable, rude waiter but previously always been nice

Food and staff 5 star every time.

Chicken over cooked, dry and tough - sauce was watery, it literally seperated after a few minutes and water appeared on the plate.

Excellent once again love it xx

Excellent food at a very reasonable price

High expectations but felt a tad disappointed. Got there at 6, not many in so would have expected a fairly speedy service, took 20 minutes to get poppadoms and pickles and mixed starter arrived around half past. Poppadoms and pickles were good though be hard to get that wrong really. The mixed starter consisted of 2 lamb and chicken pieces, 2 seekh kebabs and an onion bhaji. Bhaji was nice, chicken was nice, lamb a bit tough and the seekh kebab was more like a sausage, not very impressed, seemed wrong lol. Shared a king prawn saag, was ok but prawns overcooked and a bit chewy. They forgot my naan and I only just received it in time to finish the curry. Bring your own booze which I like!Not sure I'll be rushing back but will give it another go sometime.

food us always great and good value for money definitely recommend.

First time visitors excellent service even better food will definitely be making a return visit.

Came here for a Birthday meal for my sister. The management set up the best table for us and was very welcoming and polite towards the whole family. The waiters were very polite and was patient while our large party ordered. The food arrived at the same time by the vast majority of staff. None of our party were left out and we all ate together. The food itself was impeccable and out of our knowledge Shimla went out there way to even prepare a birthday dessert. We will definitely be booking again in due course.

Had food now a few times and it’s absolutely fantastic! This is the best Indian in Doncaster for flavour, value and service. Really nice staff and welcoming, thanks I’ll be back soon!

First time ordering after a recommendation from a friend . Food was absolutely amazing and delivered by a very polite young man @ the weekend Brill Service Shimla !! Will no doubt order and recommend again

Shimla was always best Indian around. Now it's been re furbished just love going more and more. Would recommend Banquet nights, choose your own 3 courses for exceptional price.

Amazing restaurant and atmosphere over Christmas and new year was by far the best, food delicious as always and staff very pleasant, by far the best India restaurants 😀

Absolutely fantastic takeaway. Exactly as it is in the restaurant. Perfection. Happy Christmas to all the staff.

Food brilliant staff very Professional and full of fun will go back

Beautiful restaurant with a really nice atmosphere. Waiter was wonderful and gave excellent service. Food however, was average at best. When feedback regarding lamb vindaloo given (bland and tasteless) manager was aggressive and defensive -made us feel really uncomfortable. Would not go back or recommend to anyone.

Friendly staff, nice atmosphere and delicious food.

Superb food great sevice as always

Top grub with fair prices and friendly staff! Bang on 👌

Great service, hospitality and lovely food. They catered the food to our requirements. Very tasty and lovely setting of a restaurant.

Good customer service , friendly staff and nice food.

Always have excellent customer service and beautiful food. The banquet nights are exceptional value for money. The best Indian restaurant.

Early evening - Sunday at 17.30 - very busy, but staff all found time for a friendly word and to explain the dishes. The food was excellent from Pakora & Chat starters, Chicken Silsila,rice, Naan bread and an aloo Gobi - really enjoyed the food, a large group of about 20 kept the atmosphere going, but not overpowering. Well worth a visit.

Fantastic food.great staff and Service. Will call again and again well done 👏.

First class as always. Can't recommend highly enough

Excellent food, well priced and amazing staff. Very much recommended

Literally travel nearly 60 miles for this! Best Indian in South Yorkshire facts

Great good as usual. Very nice surroundings and extremely friendly service.

Great meals and delivered very quickly. Their App is very easy to order on and 10% discount on all deliveries. Cheaper than using Jusy Eat.

Great food, excellent service and lovely atmosphere.

Beautiful surroundings, excellent service and food as always. Thank you Leb and all the staff for looking after us so brilliantly 👏😊😀

Best indian restaurant I've been too in Doncaster by far

Food was ok but, two hours for delivery even though it should of been within the hour! Shocking service.
