   What has happened here?? This was our go too curry takeaway and tonight was an absolute let down! The tikka masala had no taste and it was very pale looking and the korma had no taste at all! The rice was freezing cold basically the whole meal went in the bin. You have lost a long term customer. If you don't want to work Ramadan then close because you made that excuse on somebody's else review who was also a long term customer who you have lost.

   The most delicious lamb biryani I've ever tasted in my life! And the special set for 2 person portion is actually enough to feed the whole family! Delivery is fast and got a free item for ordering through their website. Highly recommend!

   I phoned to ask about gluten in the dishes and they didn't really know what gluten was. I appreciate that they tried to tell me ingredients of the dishes but I felt uncomfortable ordering from there without clearer information on which items were gluten free. I hope they improve their training and knowledge on this in future and I would be happy to order from there. The guy was very polite and made an effort which was good, but I unfortunately need to feel I can trust a place that they understand the allergens and can give me this information easily.

   I had Ordered keema rice and sheek kabab today, they were delicious and the portions were good enough. The takeaway was well maintained and would say 5/5 for the hygiene. The service and the staff addressed were great aswell. Highly recommendable for someone willing to try Indian and Pakistani Cuisine

   Highly overpriced. Some fried mushrooms, a lamb main and a naan. £18.20 - collected. You could feed a family of 6 for that. The naan was thin and soggy, mushrooms come in a box with the salad so everything is wilted. The main was nice but £18.20 with no rice and not even delivered. Not sure how they can justify that price.

   The good Service: Nice service, very friendly and accommodating. I wanted the spice level hot and they got that right. Portion size is good, great value for cost. The bad Food: Garlic Naan bread was dry, stale. Tasted like thick toasted pita bread. Texture like microwave stuff not from a tandoori oven and too much garlic favor. Tikka chicken was not tasty as such, should be called something else. Conclusion: I don't know what the other places in the area are like this but I was not satisfied as indian restaurant.

   Very disappointed with our takeaway last night. Chicken was over cooked, very dry. Portions very small, little salad. Definately not worth the money!

   Bit disappointed with Shandon Spice tonight, poppadoms in small pieces, Nan bread too thick very doughy appears not to have been in oven long enough. Curries OK but have had a lot better from them. Sheek kebab was missing it's sauce. Food was like warm when it arrived.

   Ordered for 8 people and order ready on time and food really tasty and hot. Flavours amazing and not just overwhelmed by hot apice. Seekh kebab really good. Staff friendly which makes a big difference to the experience.

   As a family we have eaten takeaway from here several times and each time we have been very impressed particularly by the vegetable side orders. As it is a new business, I thought I'd leave a positive review. Service was friendly and prompt too. It's very unusual to find Indian food this good without venturing into the city centre.
