Shabab Balti Restaurant — Restaurant in England

Recently moved to Wem so visited Shabab for the first time. We were shown to our table. The tablecloth was not as clean as you would expect with dried curry stains. A very polite waitress brought us a menu and took our drink order. After about 5 mins we placed our order. Our popadoms arrived and the chutneys arrived and they looked like they had been recycled over and over because the dishes they were in were disgusting covered in what can only be described as chutney that had spilled over the dish and not been cleaned for days. As soon as we saw this we called over the waitress, showed her and requested our order to be cancelled as we would leaving immediately. Who knows the state of the kitchen after seeing this. The waiter then came over and asked what was wrong, so I explained and didn't get an apology from him. I would like to add that the waitress was very genuinely apologetic. After all this we were still charged for the drink!! We walked out and went across the road to another Indian Restaurant called Junoon which was absolutely exquisite and a class above by far. I would totally recommend that if you want an Indian meal in Wem sit down or take away you stay well clear of this establishment. This review has only got 1 star as it would not post unless a star...

Awful experience. Before placing our order, we double checked they'd deliver to where we were, to which they said yes. We ordered a meal for 8 adults & were told it would take up to 45mins to arrive. When an hour had passed, we called the restaurant & were repeatedly lied to about the driver "just got in the car" & then "just around the corner". We spoke with the delivery driver on the phone to make sure she wasn't lost, she seemed to find the situation hilarious which was absolutely infuriating. The meal ended up being 2 & a half hours late, when delivered it was still hot, so the restaurant had completely lied to us about when it left them too. I would warn anyone from ordering from here. The food was absolutely average, wait time was shocking & the attitudes of the staff & driver were disgusting. This was on a Wednesday night so I dread to think what the service would be like on...

We have just moved to Wem, and during the storm, we decided to run in and grab a quick takeaway on our way home. We love our curries once a week, so we were hoping our local would be a good one.

We met Armed, who greeted us and welcomed us to Wem. Very friendly, and to be honest from the start of ordering a takeaway, I knew this place would be fantastic customer service. What a host! So that's us once a week in here enjoying an amazing curry. And at the same time feel comfortable and welcomed.

Nice furnishings, lighting and unlike some curry restaurants in Shrewsbury its actually warm and cozy.

Food is 5* and great value. It has it all for us.

Great for locals, and the surrounding areas. Plus he did tell us it's been open for more then 24 years. So that's says it all.

Thank you to the staff at...
