About Shagor Balti House
On Allerton Rd in Liverpool, Shagor Balti House serves Indian food for eating off site, with orders taken by phone for collection or delivery. The menu runs from garlic chilli chicken and chicken pakora to a madras, with mushroom pilau rice and peshawari naan alongside, and poppadoms to start. There is no table booking, since the restaurant operates on a walk-in basis. It opens evenings only across the week, closing on Tuesdays. Card payments carry a 50p surcharge, so cash avoids the extra charge.

Customer Review Summary
Most reviewers return for the takeaway curries, describing food as tasty, spot on and always lovely, with the mushroom pilau rice portions singled out and one madras chicken that came out perfect. Delivery earns a mention from one reviewer, who calls the driver a nice guy, and a few praise friendly service. One visitor from London came on a recommendation. A smaller group reports slipping standards. One long-time customer collecting an order found two popadoms instead of the eight ordered and only four small pieces of chicken pakora. Another found the garlic chilli chicken bland, with no garlic or heat, and said the person taking the order cut them off mid-call. Two describe disputes with a delivery driver, one over change given and one over finding the address that ended in abuse by phone. Another objected to a card surcharge added at payment. One reviewer wanted sweeter, more coconutty peshawari nans, and a madras chicken arrived slightly dry once.

“A decent curry place, been back a few times delivery driver is a nice guy. Prices are reasonable for an indian, the mushroom pilau rice portions are good Prefer the peshawari nans a bit sweeter/more coconutty, one time my chicken (in a madras) was just a little dry, chicken in the other dish was perfect. But only minor nitpicks to explain the 4/5 rather than 5/5. An 8.5/10 Im my own scoring system. Best curry you can get delivered in my area.”

“Food was good, the thing that bothers me the most is the attitude. Either delivery guy or restaurant is happy to risk bad review for 1 pound and decides to keep insisting I'm wrong and got the right change. Ring camera recording doesn't lie.”

“Best Indian food we have had in ages, absolutely delicious. Many thanks.”

“Excellent and superb - the best takeaway I’ve had in years - absolutely spot on ! Fill your boots with abandon - what it may have saved in decor has been invested fully in the quality of the food”
