About Shama Huddersfield

Shama Huddersfield is an Indian restaurant at 274 Bradford Rd in Huddersfield, where diners can bring their own drinks to a sit-down meal. The dining room is light and contemporary, with alcoves along the room. The menu covers balti, biryani and curry, and sizzling starters sit alongside the mains. Curries can be made to personal preference, from mild to spicy, and family meals often pair them with rice and chips. A family naan flavoured with garlic is ordered for the table.

Customer Review Summary

Most reviewers praise the curries as authentic, spicy and made to personal preference, with good prices and, for one diner, portions that offered good value. Sizzling starters, rice, chips and a family garlic naan feature in one family's meal, and another reviewer remembers the naan as soft, thick and warm. Staff come up repeatedly as friendly, welcoming and attentive, and one says the food arrived quickly. The criticism is sharp but comes from a minority. One recent dine-in visitor found the curry cold, small and tasteless and the family naan cold, bland and thin as paper, and said nobody checked on the table. Another, who placed a large takeaway order, received only five or six small curry portions padded out with salad, cold chips and rice. Against that, one diner who ordered a mild korma got a very spicy one, told the staff, and had the whole order replaced.

    “I don’t often post reviews however having given them over £200 and ask for an assortment of food I can only say the quality and quantity was far below expectations. To get 5-6 small portions of curry and the rest of the “budget” spent on boxes of cheap salad, cold chips and rice I wouldn’t recommend this at all. Unless of course we were missing a few items by accident. Photo for reference of portion size. I only gave 1 start for atmosphere because although we did not eat inside the restaurant the atmosphere where I am now is nothing but disappointment and regret.”

    “The dining experience at Shama Restaurant was consistently strong. The food was well-seasoned and served at the right temperature, with noticeable care taken in presentation. Standout dishes were flavorful without being overpowering, and the portion sizes offered good value. Service was prompt and courteous, and the ambiance was clean and comfortable. Overall, a solid choice for authentic, well-prepared meals in a relaxed setting”
