Customer Review Summary
Fish dishes lead the praise at Shimla Spice, with reviewers singling out the Fish Karahi as tender and fresh and a fish curry made mild to one diner's request, alongside Chicken Achari, Chapli kebab, chicken pakora and a mixed platter some call their go-to. Curries are described as full of rich, well-balanced spice, and one diner rates the spicing above Aagrah's. Staff come up almost as often as the food, described as friendly, prompt and attentive, and a party of fourteen praised how they were looked after. Several mention returning regularly, travelling from nearby villages, and leaving with enough to take home. The atmosphere is called warm and welcoming, with elegant seating.

“What a fantastic restaurant. The food we unbelievable. As someone who lives in Manchester and visits the curry mile in Rusholme - The Shimla Spice takes some beating. As i originally came from Saltaire the meal at Shimla Spice was a real treat. A treat also to be with my family. Shimla Spice made my weekend. Thanks to all at the restaurant.”

“Shimla Spice, Shipley – Brilliant meal & seamless service! From the moment we arrived, everything was perfect—seated straight away with absolutely no wait, which was such a lovely start. The atmosphere feels warm and welcoming, and the service was prompt, polite, and attentive throughout. We ordered Fish Karahi and Chicken Achari—both were absolutely delicious! Full of rich, well-balanced spices and deep, authentic flavours—fish was tender and fresh, while the achari had that perfect tangy, aromatic kick we hoped for. Every bite felt carefully prepared and bursting with taste. Great food, smooth service, zero hassle—would highly recommend Shimla Spice! We’ll definitely be back.”

“We've been going several times a year to eat here and it doesn't disappoint. I had the Chapli kebab and my partner the chicken pakora. For mains I had fish curry, which is where the excellent service came in. I asked for a recommendation as to how best to have my fish (lots of choices available). Uzzi said he would have it made in the way I would like, particularly as I prefer mild and not spicy desi style food. Boy was it good! It was perfect, exactly the way i wanted. He did say, if it was too spicy, I could change it immediately. Lovely atmosphere, food and service, highly recommend 👌”

“We travel from Sutton In Craven to come to this curry house because the food and the service is great. The spicing in the curries is better than the Aagrah in my opinion and the side dishes as well and there’s always enough to take home with you 👍”
