The no. 1 authentic Indian Street food in the UK. It's at the perfect location, next to the Box Office of Vue Cinema for all your must-see Hollywood and Bollywood movies. In the last 15 years of watching movies at Star City, Shobha's trailblazing food packed with flavour and spices has never disappointed. From the delicious Pau Bhaji, mouthwatering Samosa Chaat and the ultimate Gol Gappe (Pani Puri) in true Mumbai style for the Indian experience at home in England.

I've been meaning to write this review for a while now, but I never found the time until today. Shobhas in Star City is truly my go-to place for everything on their menu, from their delicious street food to their diverse drink selection. However, during my most recent visit, I tried their falooda, which was served to me in this cup with a rather amusing straw. Unfortunately, I struggled to drink it because the noodles and basil seeds kept getting stuck. After finishing all the drink, I was left with just the main ingredients. The essence of falooda is to enjoy everything together, but the straw they provided was definitely not suited for thicker drinks. It took me quite a while to finish, and I eventually ended up taking it home and using a spoon! Overall, it was enjoyable, but they should definitely consider the type of straws they use.

We visited this place yesterday after a long time. Sherekhan has gone down the hill after a Chef change. There was too much waiting at oodles noodle, and we wanted to skip Peri Peri. So thought, let's give this another shot, after almost 4 years, desperately hoping things might have changed a little. How wrong were we. Still same unorganised waiting and sitting arrangements. Same dirty tables , though the lady did clean it in 5 mins. Same menu. Same below par dishes. Take chilli paneer for example. I mean, how the hell can you make this dish so bad. It's bloody skill I tell you. Mango lassi was good. Pepsi was okay. Kathi roll, samosa chat and alu tikki chats were passable. Cutlery felt ancient, must've been used by the moghuls. All in all, I think we're done for another 5 years.

Worst Indian food I've had, very disappointing. Ordered 4 vada pau's and were very tasteless (the potatoes had no masala whatsoever). So, I had to ask for some sauce to make it edible. The dahi puri was served in a pool of yoghurt making it soggy. I also ordered a falooda which had no price on the menu and when I ordered got to know it was £4.75! Not worth it at all. All it was ice cream and cream with few chia seeds. Plus, the funniest thing is that the falooda was more expensive than the main dish which was £3.20 each. Hygiene is below average and could be improved especially in the kitchen area.

Really didn’t have to elaborate so just wrote a simple review . Day before yesterday we had lunch in your restaurant.. ordered 2 paneer dosa, 1 chana Masala, 1 fuchka plate, and 1 faluda. Attaching pics for your ready reference . We have no complaints regarding the staffs working and serving but the food is really not upto the mark..paneer filling in dosa are just tasteless. Coconut chutney has some weird smell.. only sambar is some how palatable. Faluda was okeyish. One request to the Management of Sobhas , please try to take criticism as well because it’s gonna help you in return.

Small Indian snack shop next to the Vue cinema in star city. The quality of the food is not so good anymore. The products are all premade/frozen and not fresh, all they seem to do is warm it up and serve it to you with some condiments, chutney or yoghurt spread over the top. It's expensive for what it is. They serve the traditional snacks such as samosa chaat, papri chaat, and dahi Puri. I don't think I will take family there again unfortunately.
