The best restaurants in East Midlands

Not much to say about "atmosphere" as it was empty. The food however was amazing. Vegetable samosas freshly made were delicious. Highly recommend to try.

Really friendly/fast service and delicious brunch. Will definitely be coming again :)

Very nice chicken and lamb shish and love their new bbq charcoal grill

One of my colleague's bought some food into the office - Veg samosas, meat samosas and pakoras and they were so tasty, so I had to go down to Shahenshahs myself they had a variety of Indian snacks/curries and sweets. I went for a mix of Samosas, onion barji, aloo tiki and a selection of veg and meat curries. I got all of this under £25. The food was amazing. I know where I will be going when I have my next party. Would definitely recommend.

just had an amazing meal - tonight was one of their specials nights Fish night special to be exact and it was so good! cooked and presented to perfection Served by a lovely waitress Thank you for a very special evening

When an Italian/Sicilian restaurant is full of Italians you suspect it will be good. We were right! Food was amazing, the drinks were incredible, the atmosphere was friendly and the service was impeccable. My partner is Italian and said it was authentic and delicious and the expresso was the best he’d had in England!

I would of given a five but the gravy could of been thicker. Great service, friendly and accommodating. We will be back 👍

Stopped here for a drink after a guided walk with moor and mountains .

Fish chips and peas special was lovely tasted so nice and price was excellent but the owner went the extra mile and gave me some free bin bags for muddy hikers clothes and boots we where picking up as we couldn’t find a shop xxx

This is the best cafe in Desborough. Lovely homemade produce that’s looks delicious you will be spoilt for choice. Superb coffee and the staff are smiley and welcoming. The sausage rolls are perfection!

Truly authentic Italian restaurant. Excellent food, lovely ambiance, great value. Very welcoming & friendly service, all contributing to a great celebration meal. Definitely on the ‘must go again’ list.

The cafe always seems to be shut. We have tried to visit numerous times but always shut. They do not seem to have regular times when it is open.

Really fantastic night out where you can be part of the buzzing area in the front or have a cosy sit and listen in the back area. Nice patio area to sit out the back. Very welcoming, very reasonably priced and good friendly regulars that are welcoming. Lots of live music and open mic nights. Deffo coming back daytime to try out their amazing menu 5⭐️

They do some really nice vegan options.

Pre booked for festive afternoon tea. Everything was fantastic from start to finish. We couldn't eat it all so we took it away in little boxes. Staff were fantastic and very welcoming. Will be making this my regular as we I live in one of the next villages Bilsthorpe we have nothing like this
