Shoboraj in Newport

Amazing food great service. Can't wait to return

Fantastic food and a really friendly atmosphere. went for the first time today and will definitely be returning. keep up the good work lads.

Been ordering from the shoboraj, for years best curry in newport 10/10

Really recommend this Indian, super fresh food, really flavourful and fast service. An order for 6 hungry people was ready within 30 minutes for collection and they even offered to carry our bags to the car! Highly recommend 😊

We've been several times now, and always impressed with the quality of the food and the friendly service. Definitely recommended.

Had take away and very pleased with taste and quantity. Above average price but you get what you pay for.

Not long moved to the area and have been told by so many people how good this restaurant is. I am sorry it took so long to try! The food is amazing! Having moved from an area blessed with great Indian eateries we have been on the scout for somewhere that delivers on quality at a reasonable price... found it! Can't wait to get down and eat there again!

Popped in for takeaway, best Lamb Madras I have had in a long time, wife had a Lamb Saag, said it was superb, also had a very sociable pint while waiting for my food. Around god experience, highly recommend

Always enjoy eating here. Good food, friendly but efficient staff. Good prices. Always a good atmosphere.

Great tasting food and great atmosphere. Not cheap but Highly recommended. 👍

Amazing staff great food and service

Sadly will never visit here again, never experienced such rudeness in my life, service was absolutely shocking after being sat down and had to wait nearly 25 mins to have a order taken while they wasn’t busy and stood talking, they even spoke in Bengali about how we are waiting lucky the my partner who is Bengali understood and she translated, when we asked for water they brought me a large glass and then my partner a smaller glass and disregarded her yet every other couple in the restaurant and table had the same size glass and had a much more friendly and personal service, the way they kept staring at us all night made us feel extremely awkward and unsettling. At the end of the day it’s a modern age in a multicultural society and any culture and any two people can be together. no one should experience the level of racism we had, then when ordering food my partner wanted more rice and they simply replied to her “you don’t need that love” so I ordered the same thing right away and they replied “yes sir no worries” I was absolutely disgusted. I have eaten here for 10 years and always been greeted with friendly atmosphere but really gone down hill and sadly they bring culture between their customer service. No one did they thank for the custom but couldn’t get us out the door quick enough. We generally rather them say we wasn’t welcome than make our evening unpleasant and uncomfortable. Will never visit again I hope they close down and learn that they can’t treat people this way, they should keep culture and personal views out the workplace especially when we are in a Morden age where it’s normal for multicultural people to be together.

Family get together, couldn't have chosen a better place. Gorgeous meals.

Great place to visit, fantastic food, great staff

Best curry house in Newport. Food is delicious, cooked fresh and great flavour. All the staff are so helpful and on the ball. Service is excellent. There were 11 of us in total and not a single thing wrong with any of our meals. Thank you again for a great meal!

Nice place, not too many people in but good food and staff were friendly. Sat without reservation, parking is available but only really at night.

Don't recall ever having a bad meal or great time.

Easy to book over the phone. We had to rearrange due to illness but the team were so kind and helpful even though they were busy as it was just before Christmas. Such a lovely place for a date night or to take family. The food was very good, plenty of each dish and the best Lamb Passanda I have had! Will definitely go back.

Really disappointed. Ordered a takeaway last night and the food was terrible. The curry itself wasn’t too bad but the chips were so dry and pale. The onion bhaji’s were the worst part, they were tiny and really dry. The same with the pakora and we also had stale poppadoms. The whole meal tasted like it had been warmed up from the day before. It was also very expensive so expected it to be nice. Will not be ordering again.

Superb. Best Indian I've been to in years. We travelled down from the valleys and were not disappointed. Will be back!

This is such a great little restaurant. We haven’t been for a while, and I don’t know why, because when we do it never fails to impress! The staff are so friendly and lovely. I couldn’t decide what I wanted tonight, so the manager took his time recommending dishes that would suit my tastes. Definitely worth a visit if you haven’t been before!

Excellent food, loads of choice and it tasted amazing. Service pretty good, but they did forget our drinks and we had to flag a waiter down to reorder. Huge down point was parking. Had to drive around a bit to find a space. Not easy in a busy area. Would put me off eating here again sadly. But glad we tried it.

Really nice curry, nice varied menu. A bit pricy but that's a sign of the times

First visit for myself, although my oartner has been many times before. The service was impeccable. Very delicious food along with the brilliant service made our date night one of the best so far. Thank you for serving yummy food and looking after us so well. We will be back

Been several times now and great food each time. Great staff too! Each time we visit we try a different dish and the food continues to impress.

Just got ripped off paying £11.95 for a lamb tikka pathia for a walk in collection. First and last time i will go there !!!!!!

Lovely place to eat in. The food was of an excellent standard and the portions were good. The service was second to none. I would highly recommend.

We had a really good evening at the Shoboraj, one of the best Indian restaurants around! The staff are always so polite, friendly and helpful. The food was excellent. Would recommend the lamb sag balti.

Fantastic. Food was excellent, service was perfect. Will be back if work brings me to this part of the world again!

Sunny and his staff were amazing. The food was cooked to perfection and we had the best evening. We’re on holiday from Australia and found this awesome restaurant by the reviews and a bit of local advice. It may be a few years away, but we’ll be back one day. Thanks guys. 🙏🏼

They very abruptly told us that they will not deviate from the menu. I asked if there were any dishes that could be made creamy and usually I’d expect the chef/waiter to discuss the options but instead the man just raises his voice “too many to list, what do you want and I’ll tell you if we can do it.” - made me feel like such a nuisance.. I told the waiter that I don’t know I don’t usually have a curry and he said “well we don’t have all day to list madam”. Another person on our table asked if they could make a certain dish spicy, waiter said “No”. Finally to top it all off the waiter knocked my diabetes device off the table and didn’t apologise or didn’t pick it up. Overall an awful experience and won’t be going back again.

Father in Law, 72nd birthday, so we went here (not for the 1st time) for a family gathering (14 of us). Excellent food and service. I had the Shahi Thali consisting of tikka masala, lamb with spinach, vegetable curry and chicken buna with raitha, pilau rice and naan, taster meal. This did not disappoint in anyway, just like a mini buffet, possibly the best Indian restaurant I have been to, and I have been to many in Bristol. All of us really enjoyed our meals and we will return again. Thank you Sammy and the rest of the staff for a lovely evening.

The best Indian in Newport by far. Haven’t had the chance to visit for a while due to moving to Swansea but booked in with the family for a meal on the weekend and the food was outstanding as it’s always been previously. Great service within the restaurant and all the staff are very friendly and always helpful. Also have the option to order takeaway which is brilliant too! If you’re in or around Newport and want an Indian then the Shoboraj is the place to go!

Just had my first curry from here and it was absolutely superb absolutely delicious food, can’t wait to come back 👌

The best staff, the best food, wouldn't go anywhere else . Excellent service and a very friendly atmosphere

We live in Cornwall but travel to Wales occasionally and every single time we make sure we go here. The food is delicious and the service fantastic.

The quality and consistency of this restaurant is a credit to its staff. We always enjoy the food which is tasty and varied. Staff are pleasant and professional. Keep up the good work please!

Friendly from the start. Knowledgeable about diety needs. Attentive but not overbaring. The food was excellent and served in a timely manner, at a reasonable cost.

The food is really nice and freshly prepared. Portions are generous as well and customer services is absolutely spot on. Their prices are bit steep though. Normal naan bread is £4.75 and I dnt think it's reasonable.

Absolute gem! Food was fantastic and service was excellent. Staff were friendly and food was presented really well.

I have been to many Indian restaurants all over the world , this one is the best in any way. The food is amazing and the staff makes you feel so, so, so welcome and good.

We had four different meals last night all very good would have been 5 stars the samosa should have been veg it was lamb and tastless

Lovely experience whilst visiting family. Staff were attentive, kind and very welcoming. The food was amazing and well worth its price. All that you want in an Indian cuisine. Was recommended by family, extremely pleased (and full) with the food and service.

Felt very neglected. The food was warm at best. Had to wait over 10 minutes for drinks. Shame as I’ve heard good things.

This is an absolute shining gem of Newport dining. Every single dish was great, even the sundries were special and delicious. I'm surprised we could just walk in on a Thu eve and didn't need a booking with the food quality. The staff was amazing too, you can really tell they like this place and are proud of the food they serve. This was a spontaneous dinner out a few weeks ago. Came here after a long break from curry being discouraged by previous questionable food experiences in Newport. It's not just curry but other top rated restaurants that are quite disappointing. People here settle for questionable quality of food as they have no other options... please people stop settling for bad food and give feedback so establishments have a chance to improve. Sayings that Shoboraj you're doing a great job and keep going at this level <3

Was once very good. Disappointing to say the least . Could do with a revamp and a change menu. Will not be back

Delicious menu, excellent service from really lovely staff. Good range of vegan options.

Out of this world! From the moment we walked in and were greeted to the last second of leaving the front of house, waiters and staff you couldn't had wished for more. Polite, friendly, attentive and just really nice people. The food was to die for. Freshly cooked, tasty, and plenty of it. Great value for money. Definitely will be returning in the near future. They have been trading for 35 years so here's to the next 35! Brilliant restaurant and can't recommend it enough.

Me and my hubby travel the world and have visited many Indian restaurants all over the planet....this one belongs to the best or shall I say it is the best. When we entered the restaurant we were feeling loved from the beginning till the end. And the food was really amazing. Prepared and served with love. Love them from the heart.

A very warm welcome, amazing food made and served with love. One of the best Indian restaurants we have ever been to.

Exceptional food and service. Treated more like a guest than a customer, nothing was to great for our host and the food was quite possibly one of the best curry’s I’ve ever had and I’ve eaten a fair few across the country/Europe. Great stuff!!

A relatively small, unpretentious restaraunt with excellent friendly service. Not for those looking for a cheap Indian meal, but you only get what you pay for. They have obviously not pared down on the quantity and quality of spices used in the interests of economy...

Another excellent meal in our favourite Indian restaurant in Newport. Luckily it's also our closest. The standard of food & service is always top notch. We have had numerous take aways too & they have been delicious. I had the Nawabi Massalla which was so...

Delicious food, with authentic flavours. The service was good, friendly, quick and unobtrusive. The portion size was just about right, and everything was eaten, and thoroughly enjoyed. The downside was the bill, soo expensive. Nearly £6 for a naan, £2 per poppadom! Most of the...

This we believe to be the best in the Gwent area if not Wales. Fantastic food fantastic service. Small, unassuming, friendly. Try it we don’t think you will be disappointed.

Owners and all the staff are all very friendly and the food is out of this world, only one I ever go to. Highly recommended, still going to this restaurant, the curry is the best you can get, if you haven't eaten here you don't know what you are missing

Very good food. Expensive but you get good quality. Would highly recommend.we had sit down meal.

Ate here on a Tuesday. Never been before but we're staying local to the area. Didn't book, restaurant (which is relatively small) was full so we waited for a table for 10min. Decided to eat here as the reviews were good and I can confirm the food was lovely aka lush. There were three of us and the quality of the dishes was very high. Service from all staff was polite and efficient and I would recommend this family run restaurant to anyone that enjoys a quality indian/Bangladesh meal. Recommended

From the moment you walk through the door you feel the warmth of the welcome by staff intent on giving you the best dining experience. The menu is expansive with the best of Bangladeshi cuisine. We were lucky that Sunny was there to help us in our choices of starter and main courses, all served beautifully presented and piping hot. I can't recommend enough that you try this restaurant. Superb food and polite and courteous staff. Make sure to book as you'd hate to be disappointed.

6 out of 5 as normal! The chicken tikka Pathia is the best around. Every member of staff make a fuss of you and make it a personal experience. 👍

Best curry around, great service, great hospitality all round fantastic evening! Don’t try anywhere else this is the best around!

This is rated so highly and is worth it! The food is exceptional and the service is incredible. Thank you for a great night of great food, company and service!

My wife and I dined here Saturday evening as we were staying in Newport overnight. What a find!! Absolutely amazing food from a very comprehensive menu served by the most friendly and attentive staff you could wish for, nothing was too much for them. The...

Try to book table for 2 and a2 year kid .. but the phone was passed to 3 people and at last they said they don’t allow kids on a restaurant.. only adult .. In other word they don’t allow family .. 😞

Such a lovely couple of hours at the Shoboraj. We booked last-minute on a Saturday and were fortunate to get a table. The staff are the most polite and friendly people I have ever been served by in a restaurant. Nothing was too much trouble...

Love the Shoboraj. I think it's the best Indian restaurant in Newport. They treat u like royalty if you go in. Impeccable service. However, i use them more frequently as a take out service. The only thing is.. they are very expensive for takeaway.. its worth it.. but it is expensive - also, used to get free onion salad and mint sauce.. that doesn't happen anymore :( but I do get the COL crisis driven prices up everywhere so we will allow it lol 🙃 👍

This evening we visited the shoboraj for a birthday treat for our almost 11 year old. She was treated like a princess the entire time we were here. The food was wonderful as always and the shoboraj teams attention to detail and customer service was...

Great food. Excellent service. Staff so friendly and the manager was very welcoming.

Always stop off here for dinner when we visit Celtic Manor. The food is amazing and the service always on point.

We ordered take out for delivery which arrived in good time and we enjoyed an excellent high quality meal. The Lamb Bhuna was beautifully cooked and flavourful and the chicken jalfrezi was one of the best my partner has ever had. I liked that the mint sauce was not bright green and a paler cool minty creamy sauce. We will definitely order again and plan to eat in their lovely restaurant in the near future.

Just had an incredible meal here, the staff were amazing nothing was too much trouble, super friendly especially with children. Food was delicious 10 out of 10. Would highly recommend this place and we will definitely be back next week hopefully.

This Indian restaurant is the absolute best place I have eaten in. The food is to die for and the customer service is excellent. I 100% recommend that you visit this fabulous place

A little over priced, however the food was excellent and the service was faultless.

Excellent tasty food with extremely good service. Food spot on and served in a timely fashion. We had chicken Rogan, chicken korai Nan, vegetable rice and mixed vegetable bahji. No fault with any item. All served hot and without delay. All staff friendly and helpful. Will eat there again.

Stopped here en route from Bristol airport to West Wales as it is 2 minutes from the M4. Had the most delightful dinner of excellent tasty food. The staff were really passionate and knowledgeable about the food too, which made a big difference. These guys...

Absolutely fuming, went tonight for a takeaway after a hard days work, in my hi vis clothing from working on the Highway, after placing my order the guy behind the counter asked if I would like a beer, being t total I asked if they...

Extremely Good Service And The Food Was Perfectly Cooked And Great Taste Wil Highly Recomend Everyone Must Visit This Place

Lovely food ,great service from friendly and helpful staff. Will return in the future.

Been coming here for some years. Whether it’s takeaway or dining in it’s got to be my favourite Indian restaurant. The food is stunning, the beer well kept and most of all the staff don’t make you feel like just another customer but a friend.

Possibly the best curry I've had for ages. Highly recommended.

Anyone living in the Newport area or can get delivery then get your Indian meal from here. Top notch food.

The food was nice though expensive and we were rushed out. I would have preferred that they had said "you are too late to order". Poor service as a result.

Food was excellent, staff was very accommodating. Worth booking as it was very busy at 6pm on a Saturday when we visited The friendly staff found us a table and we were not rushed at all. Definitely worth a visit.

Super restaurant- god service og rigtig smagfuldt mad. Lidt pricy

Great food Great staff Best curry in Newport

Excellent service and quality of food is exceptional!

Came highly recommended and certainly delivers incredibly friendly service and the food was some of the best we have had only wished we lived closer to go more 5*

Lovely atmosphere and staff meals were great too

We've sampled most Indian restaurants in Newport now and, while there are a fair few good ones, none of them come close to Shoboraj! The lamb rogan josh was phenomenal... The best I've had. Well worth getting down there and trying them out!

Visited after reading the good reviews posted by locals and people visiting the area. Staff were very polite and helpful and I had prawn puri starter which was one of the best I've ever had, chicken jalfrezi, again, really good. The only slight negative I...

Had a really lovely meal there staff where very friendly and efficient. Although busy on a Wednesday night we weren't pressured at all . Food served quick and was hot and delicious. Definitely going there again, and would recommend it to anybody. 👍

Visited 09th April, one of the best Jalfrezis I have ever had. Fantastic food, great atmosphere and really friendly staff. Highly recommended!

Had a wonderful meal and experience last Wednesday 30th March. Really friendly staff and tweaked dishes to our tastes.

Always friendly and professional food great every time

This our local takeaway, we've had many meals from here and sat in on special occasions, I can honestly say we've never had a bad meal ever! Best curry house in Newport by far with the lovely staff.

Fantastic....I sometimes judge a restaurant by its toilets..spotless and the food was excellent too..a gem on the outskirts of the city don't waste your money eating burgers etc...this restaurant is the real deal.

Old fashioned curry house lovely food

I was recommended this place by a couple of locals and it really lived up to their recommendations. It's a small place, quite cosy with very friendly service, good choice of meals and drinks. I've visited several times, never been let down, the food is...

First time ordered and it was lovely food was spot on apart from we never had our chips but I think we didn't need them. Definitely going back next time for sit down

always very accommodating when booking a table. friendly attentive staff, Food highly recommend, one place I return to time and time again.dosent disappoint.
