I and my daughter booked a table .When we arrived there was a very large party of people being attended to. Soon after a couple came and sat at the table next to us. We were brought some popadoms and drinks fairly smartly, and we couldn't help noticing that the couple on the table next to us, had already been served their food.After about 20 mins a waitress came and took our order which still had not appeared 40 mins later, during which time no body asked if we needed another drink or anything, although the couple on the table next to us had eaten their food and left by then. Despite trying to catch various waiters' eye, we were studiously ignored, and when eventually our meal came I had to wait for cutlery to eat it with! But by that time I had lost my appetite for what was supposed to be a pleasant start to the New Year. The food was not outstanding and very expensive for what it was. We did complain about the long wait, but the waiters seemed very arrogant, and obviously did not care. I shall never go there again, nor recommend Shabash to my large group of friends.When we finally requested the bill, even though the waiter was hanging around apparently doing such mundane things as straightening knives and forks and tablecloths on empty tables, we still had to rerequest it, though we were obviously waiting to leave as were standing up with our coats on and several waiters saw us. it was terrible service and...
Read moreI love the food here so really disappointed with tonight's order and the general way it was all handled. Please do not order anything for delivery from this place- that is my warning! Ubereats have informed me the restaurant arrange the deliveries themselves so clearly not doing a good job at it. Ordered around 18.50 tonight on ubereats. At first delivery time was 19.40. Changed to 20.00-20.20. Again I thought fine, it is a Friday night after all! At 9.30pm the food had still not arrived. I'd like to add this was about a £75 order and myself and friends were waiting for this food for 3 hours. Made about 5 phone calls in total to this restaurant. Offered a free bottle of wine. By the third phone call offered £10 credit on my next order (1. On a £75 order lol and 2. as if I would repeat this mistake). Loads of excuses, too many orders, you're too far away (13min drive), we are so slammed tonight etc. Don't care, stop being greedy and taking more orders than you can handle. By the 5th phone call and still no food, I was quite rightly livid and didnt really care where the food was, I just wanted a refund and for all this to end. Manager (I assume) had the audacity to haggle on the phone, saying oh I'll do £20, I'll do half etc. Fortunately I was on another call with ubereats who agreed it was unacceptable and refunded my order. Do not order takeaway from this restaurant. If you have to have it, go and collect...
Read moreIt looks quite nice and is in a good location however me and my friends were very disappointed with the food and service , the chicken tikka was over sweet and didn't taste right , the spinach and paneer tasted like fish and was very dry and the vegetarian option was very bland and mushy , the condiments that came with the poperdoms looked and tasted cheap compared to most Indian restaurants , we also got charged extra for condiments which i'm sure isn't a thing most places do . The service was kind of rushed and felt like we couldn't take our time to choose what we wanted also one of the service staff was hacking up fleme in the toilets which was pretty off putting ! Over all it was over priced and really not very good food , i cook myself at home all the time so rarely go out for a meal so this was very disappointing considering the cost and quality . Also this food has given me a very upset stomach i cook Indian and spicy food at home a lot and never get sick like this for eating a meal which makes me think they use bad ingredients !! I would not come here again unless i was completely drunk and someone else was paying ! Sorry guys but its a no from me maybe the others people that have rated you a high rating eat ready meals for dinner and don't know what quality food tastes but i do and this is not...
