This is our first visit to shimla spice (Shipley one), we normally go to great horton Shimla. But by the recommendation of Sal we had the desi sizzler mix and your desi chicken karahi. Honestly very tasty and I can’t really handle spice so it wasn’t very hot thankfully. Also , we had a huge naan On a stand it was very well presented. Definitely will come again ! Keep the great work up I loved the service and atmosphere was great 👍🏻.

I have been going to the Shimla in Shipley and Keighley for more than 20 years and it never disappoints. I live on the South coast but travel to the area regularly for work and always eat at the Shimla every visit. The food never fails (nothing like it where I live) and the service is always brilliant. I’m often on my own but always made to feel very welcome and on this latest visit Sal looked after me and was really attentive and friendly. King prawn paratha to start on this visit followed by the fish karai - both were absolutely delicious.

Nos levantamos de Sussex visitando a algunos muy buenos amigos. Habían reservado este restaurante ya que era uno de sus favoritos. Empezaré con el servicio que encontré que era amable y eficiente, aunque parecía bastante apresurado en algunos puntos, pero superamos lo suficientemente rápido, ya que el plato principal era delicioso! El entrante era un poco soso (pollo en una especie de tubo de pastelería) El naan era apropiado! ¡Solo dame eso y un cubo de salsa y estoy feliz! Nos encantó pasar tiempo aquí con buenos amigos y nos pareció que la experiencia era muy agradable oh y el precio era muy reflexivo en la calidad de la comida. Tengo que mencionar a nuestro servidor Yassen que aunque era un chico muy joven era muy agradable y muy informativo en el menú y no podía hacer lo suficiente.

Spent £50 on two curries with sides & starters. The only way to describe the chicken in the Chicken Madras was like rubber bullets, for a £12 curry not was expected, lacked the flavour you’d expect from a madras. One of the Chicken tikka pieces in the masala had a sharp piece inside. Cutting inside of partners mouth and causing her to taste blood throughout the meal. For price we’ve paid, seemingly for restaurant quality, wouldn’t recommend at all. Disappointed.

I cannot speak highly enough of this restaurant, the food is always fantastic. I have to mention Uzzy though who regularly delivers food to my elderly parents. My father had fallen and Uzzy came out specially late at night to help him to his feet. He could not have been kinder or more patient and respectful, refusing all attempts to pay him for his troubles, a special person. We are all so grateful

El iniciador de mezcla para dos estaba bien. La red tomó más de una hora, ya que nos olvidaron, pashwari naan era básicamente una envoltura de tortilla con sultanas y almendras quemadas en curry (desperdicio de dinero) tampoco eran los mejores. Básicamente pagó para comer un entrante y dejó el resto. El restaurante ni siquiera estaba ocupado, al personal tampoco le importaba una mierda

We were disappointed by our recent visit, the place has definitely gone downhill since we last visited a couple of years ago. BYO is an unusual but appreciated touch but I asked 3 times for a glass to pour my beer into without it arriving. Lots of waiters but it all seems uncoordinated. Stale poppadoms came accompanied with a rather nasty selection of ‘pickles’ (raw onion in some tomato sauce?). The lamb curry was very good, chicken in the other curry overcooked. Veg sides very good. Naan bread fine but does it have to be hung up as if it’s been tortured? It wasn’t terrible but we paid £56 for 2 of us without drinks which is a top end price for a mediocre meal. They seem to have let the rave reviews of the past go to their heads. If you fancy a curry in that part of the world, I recommend choosing somewhere else.

Went to eat here and the Naan was raw, which they replaced. The curry lacked any flavour other than salt and basar. Been killing our stomachs since we've had it.
