  “This place is an absolute institution in Brighton. It has stood the test of time for a reason: the sheer, consistent quality of their food. The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the value is genuinely unbeatable—where else can you get a brilliant curry dinner for just £13 these days? Local gems like this are the heart of our community, and we need to keep supporting them so they stay open for years to come. If you are in Brighton and fancy a proper curry, do yourself a favour and check them out. Highly recommended!”

  “Deliveroo driver was rude- left building door wide open - all food was cold - rice was full of water - chicken was undercooked - naan wasn’t even in the box - all popadoms shattered to peices - staff were unhelpful and rude on the phone when we were trying to explain the situation and said we weren’t allowed a refund and tried to make us order again and have to pay the full amount again!! (The cheek!) never going again, save yourself the trouble”

  “Our uni house loves this takeaway! The food is so so yummy and great value. We have taken away or gotten it delivered every time and never had any issues. Great staff and quick service.”

  “We’ve been loyal customers and always order the same dishes; Prawn Vindaloo or Prawn Saag with Vndaloo sauce on the side. Unfortunately, the consistency has really gone downhill. Last time the Vindaloo was very mild and this time the Prawn Saag was unbelievably sweet. It feels like there may not be permanent chefs, as the flavours seem to change every week and not for the better. Such a shame, as this used to be our absolute favourite but now we’ll probably have to start looking for a new one. 😕🍛”

  “Nice. Can't fault the chicken tikka masala. Unfortunately the delivery rider had multiple orders to deliver, one of which was evidently on top of mine as mine was splashed all over the bag due to weight on top of it. A little on the expensive side compared to other Indian restaurants on Uber eats.”

  “I live just up the road from Shahi so we’ve eaten here loads over the years and gotten takeaways plenty of times when we’re too hungover to dine in 😂. Anyway, as it’s so close and our “go to” I haven’t thought to review it because we take it for granted…but tonight that’s changing! We went in with a party of 5, my partner and I, my dad and step mum and a good friend. We were a bit tipsy and probably a bit loud (sorry) but the staff were hospitable as always. We all had a pint, popadoms, chicken and lamb tikka and onion bhajis from the starter menu, garlic naans and various curries and rice for mains - bhuna, madras and one other I can’t remember - all were so tasty. Perfectly cooked and seasoned and generous portion sizes. Everyone sharing and passing the food around, “you’ve gotta taste this!”, as you do with great food. And all that only came to around £85 including drinks, for 5 of us!!! Unreal value for money. We left a generous tip because with value and service like that, why wouldn’t you? Love the place and we’ll be back. I’ve included the weird .5 zoomed out photo I got before the meal because it’s hilarious and all I’ve got. The food was too good and got eaten before a picture was considered. Do yourself a favour and dine in rather than takeaway.”

  “The food tasted good - what we got of it. I would suggest never ordering from here on deliveroo. The packaging is not fit for purpose and everything had leaked into the bag and was stone cold. What we got to eat tasted good but with a kitchen covered in curry and portion size left over big enough for a mouse, not worth the money.”

  “The food turned up in a bag. Not much was left in the containers so couldn’t tell you whether it was good quality or not. Maybe good if you collect the food but wouldn’t recommend the delivery service. Update- They just blames the courier service and it’s not their fault. I would recommend using better packaging if so many people have the food delivered like this.”

  “Spend one dinner night, I should really thank the entire team for a happy welcoming even at the last minute for closing the shop. Dishes are really good which giving nice aroma of Indian spices and all. One bad thing I noticed was few currys they serve have a common base gravy , which doesn’t make any difference if you order those”
