I must agree with the others, best chicken tikka masala in the city . If you like garlic , the garlic naan is a plus to dip in the leftover sauce. BTW they do not serve alcohol .

Javier Cambon Sanjurjo

This place is awesome! We always get chicken tikka masala , lamb chops , rice , naan , and mango lassi . Yummy!!

Asha Servia

Tied for 1st w/LK for most authentic + rich Indian/Pakistani food in the city . Perfect amount of spices. The dhaal, kofta , makhani, all YUM. Also, they offer brain masala on their menu.

Last night there was a small bent metal NAIL or staple in my okra . I had gotten takeout . Luckily I saw it. Needless to say this was my last of many happy visits to Shalimar.

Steven Matthews

Tikka masala and naan is a great place to start.

Dave Jensen

You can bring your own beer . Stop off at Jug Shop first and get a bottle or can of craft brew .

The Saag-Paneer(Palak paneer ) is excellent ! Have it with the huge Naans

Very spicy . Too much for my taste. Even a mango lassi couldn't help with the heat.

Mirza Sameer Baig

RUDE AND OFFENSIVE We tried to reserve a table over the phone before closing time. They told us that they were closed once we got there 20 minutes before. DON'T BOTHER MAKING THE SAME MISTAKE WE MADE!

Oliver Style

Perhaps the worst chicken tikka masala I've ever had.
