Shah's Halal Food - Worcester — Restaurant in Worcester

First time here and I'm conducting my review on the experience. A 2nd trip is warranted and planned to be able to explore a little more and be sure of this rating or to increase or decrease it.

The person on the phone was great, kind, and patient. That put us off to a great start. Upon picking up the order, the lady at the counter was nice as well (could've been the same person). The food was packaged well and with care. Vegetable within items were fresh, and slightly bigger than average in size.

Lamb Gyro: The lamb gyro was okay/good. I didn't like the taste of the meat which was lamb. It didn't taste homemade (kind of?), not that they claimed that it was. But it wasn't a bad gyro, and I will try the chicken next to compare. I didn't like the white sauce as much as others in the reviews. I thought it was okay but not like everyone else made it out to be like. And it is probably better in moderation, but my gyro kind of had too much on it. For me, it was like a 3.8 out of 5 on meat taste, and sauce taste and amount, a somewhat for the bigger-sized veggies. But, would i try a different one, yes, I will be trying the chicken next. But it's not in my top list, nor would it make me return for that alone. The pita was fresh and had a great taste, as well as the veggies. The gyro was packed with all of the ingredients also. Not skimpy at all.

Fish: The fish as a side was normal/good, no complaints. It was a good portion, better than actually, and for the price. I'd buy it again. Nothing memorable about the taste, though. But you get your money worth and don't feel like you wastes it either. It is good if you want a little extra protein with your other selections. A 4.5 out of 5, because 0 complaints but no memorable or bursting flavor. It was good and meaty, and plentiful in service amount and price.

Pakora Chips: These were good, and I would order them again. 4.7. Cooked perfectly, no complaints, not bursting with flavor but they're not supposed to be, likely. I would likely get them with most or all orders if I frequented this place. I think adding a cheese (a well-balanced cheese) option would be good. Maybe a special sauce for them, if there isn't one already. Crunchy, perfectly cooked and fresh taste. The cup overflowed with plenty of extra chips I was happy with this item.

Chicken over rice: This was good, and the better selecrion of each item. It tasted fresh and had a good flavor. The chicken tasted fresh, tender, palatable, and worth a second buy at another time if i were choosing orher items as well. 4.6.

Overall, this place serves fresh ingredients, good and friendly service with care and patience, bountiful amounts of servings. Bright atmosphere. It is a few places down from the bars or clubs, whatever it was on Water St. So there were it's of people out at night, but on decent behavior from the time frame that I was present. No one caused any scenes anywhere. Even the police drove past everyone and went elsewhere. Check it out. I am sure that there are at least some items you will enjoy. I suggest finding what you like from here and deciding your overall feeling about the food as a whole. I tried these 3 items on the first go and will try a couple more at least.

I will determine if it it's not so bad but doesn't make me crave it; or, if it's good enough to continue coming back. My money did not feel wasted. Other than that, there were no issues with the staff or food itself, and it is just a matter of if it hit the spot for me or not, enough to care to keep returning. But overall it's a good establishment. They were also deserving of a...

Located just adjacent to Kelly Square on Water Street, is an excellent addition to Worcester's food scene. This restaurant, which opened only two weeks ago, is already creating a name for itself with its excellent food, friendly service, and unparalleled convenience.

The lamb platter is an essential must-try. Tender, precisely seasoned lamb is served over fragrant basmati rice, with crisp salad and warm pita bread to finish out the meal. Their white and red sauces are creamy, tangy, and spicy to perfection.

My wife got the Chicken Platter, which was just as remarkable, with succulent, well-marinated chicken that rivalled the lamb in flavor. We ordered chicken nuggets and fries for the kids. While simple, these were delightfully crispy and fresh, and the kids adored them. What truly distinguishes Shah's is the breadth and quality of their menu, which I thought to be superior to The Halal Guys. The quantities are substantial, the ingredients are fresh, and you can tell they care about each dish.

Convenience is essential, and Shah's provides. It's on Water Street, with metered street parking directly in front and a large parking lot across from BayState Bakery. This makes it convenient to stop by for a quick dinner or to get takeaway.

The personnel here is fantastic--warm, welcoming, and willing to assist. They patiently explained the menu and made some excellent recommendations.

If you're in Worcester and want Halal food, Shah's should be your go-to. With more alternatives than The Halal Guys, easier parking, and excellent service, it's an easy 5/5 for me. Whether you're new to Halal cuisine or a seasoned lover, Shah's is...

I recently had the pleasure of dining shah’s halal , a fantastic halal restaurant that exceeded all my expectations. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming, with friendly staff eager to make my experience enjoyable.

The menu offered a great variety of options, ranging from traditional Middle Eastern dishes to fusion-style creations. I opted for the kofta gyro], and it was absolutely delicious. The flavors were perfectly balanced, with the spices enhancing the natural taste of the fresh ingredients. The portion sizes were generous, and I was impressed with how tender the meat was — you could tell everything was prepared with .

Service was top-notch. The staff were attentive without being overbearing, and the food arrived at the...
