Customer Review Summary
Reviewers return most to the meals served over rice, with chicken over rice, lamb over rice and a combo over rice all singled out as flavourful and outstanding, especially alongside the range of sauces. One family took all the sauces in tubs to work out which they liked and found every one great. Close behind is the counter service, which diners describe as polite, welcoming, kind and efficient. One notes that queues were handled well, and another credits the person preparing salads as clean and helpful. Several say the food tastes fresh, and one says the meat, chicken, salad and sauce were all cooked fresh. Portions come up too, with one reviewer saying the order was fully loaded with meat. One diner suggests trying the fish, calling it not everyone's usual choice but very good, and another says the shop will become a go-to after the gym. One reviewer who ate free on the opening offer said they would be back as a paying customer.

“First time trying Shah’s, we had similar food in the US on holiday and was really nice. The kids were asking if we can get something like this in the UK. Some research and found Shah’s do this. We got chicken over rice and lamb over rice. Really nice and flavourful, got all the sauces in tubs as I was not sure which sauce we will like. They are all great. The Gants Hill branch was the place where we got it from. Great customer service and friendly approach. Highly recommend if you have not been.”
