Indian restaurant in Nottingham

“This restaurant is fantastic. I have been going here for many years, and it just keeps getting better. They have recently extended and fully refurbished the restaurant, and it looks amazing. The food is consistently outstanding, and the staff are always extremely welcoming and friendly. A massive thank you to Abu for looking after us so well, on our most recent visits.”

“Went here for breakfast on a whim for my 30th birthday. Fancied something authentic and Shahjee's did not disappoint. Its the positive reviews that pulled me in, which definitely checked out. I had the halwa, puri, aloo chana deal. Had an omelette on the side to share, which was lovely. Spicy, with onions, tomatoes and mixed Peppers. The desi tea could have had a but more cinnamon and flavour in it but to be honest, to say it is included in the meal option, you really cannot complain about it. Would definitely come again and glad I trusted the reviews. Everything is freshly prepared and cooked, even the tea. Nothing is already pre-made or packet that you just reheat in the microwave. Yes the place was a tad busy but that's pretty much goes to show how popular and enjoyable the food is. I'd rather go to a place that is busy and bustling, than dead and quiet. Also has a food hygiene rating of 5. The negative reviews are either very picky/fussy eaters with lack of patience, or may have just a genuine hiccup, which can happen. I think so long as you give the place an opportunity to actually rectify the concern/issue, then that's what matters, as opposed to coming on her to moan and complain. Will be coming again.”

“This was amazing the food was so nicee and I highly recommend the popadoms with sweet chilli sauce it was the best thing I ever tried.”

“We had our society's welcome Dinner here, and had over 40 attendees. The buffet service was very smooth and fast, and the staff were very polite and helpful . People were very impressed with the food, and the reasonable price. We would recommend this for any occasions and will go again in the future.”

“I recently dined at this Indian restaurant and was truly impressed by every aspect of the experience. From the moment I walked in, the warm hospitality and inviting ambiance set the tone for what turned out to be an exceptional meal. The menu offers a wonderful variety of traditional Indian dishes, and every bite was bursting with authentic flavor. I particularly enjoyed the butter chicken — rich, creamy, and perfectly spiced. The garlic naan was fresh from the tandoor, fluffy on the inside with just the right crisp on the edges. Each dish felt carefully prepared with attention to detail and quality ingredients. Service was prompt and friendly, with staff who were more than happy to offer recommendations and explain the different dishes. Whether you’re new to Indian cuisine or a longtime fan, there’s something here for everyone. If you’re looking for a delicious, satisfying Indian meal, I highly recommend this place. I’ll definitely be coming back!”

“Clean and not busy for Sunday. Ordered different burgers. Both chicken and lamb nice- halal McDonald’s upnorth. Chips could of done with a bit more salt but would not stop me coming again. Was served by Ahmed who was polite, friendly and helpful.”

“The best Paneer Tikka and Chicken Tikka and Indian curry (Paneer Jalfrezi) and Garlic Coriander Naans I’ve had in Nottingham. Must visit. Count me as your regular now. 10000% recommended.”

“Excellent traditional style Indian food with some modern twists available as well. Really friendly team and nice setting of a Victorian shopping Street in Kimberley. The restaurant does eat in and take away/delivery with generous pricing and portions. Highly recommend.”

“The food is 10/10 The staff are very helpful The garlic chilli chicken and noodles are recommended”

“I have been using Bombay for some years and Get the Vindaloo which is not too hot, always pleased with the service and friendly staff.”

“Always have a brilliant experience here. Food is amazing and Jay goes out of his way to make sure our every need is catered for. Had a family members 60th birthday there last night and it was phenomenal how he managed to feed nearly 60 of us all at the same time. Food was amazingly tasty and we all left absolutely stuffed. Even boxed the left overs up for us to take home. Thanks for an amazing evening!!”

“Our regular ‘go to’ for really delicious Indian food. We collect and have always enjoyed a friendly and warm welcome. Whilst we don’t depart far from our favourite dishes, the food is full of flavour with tender meat.”

“Tasty, fresh ingredients, good portions and nice service”

“The best food around. Always top service, food is delicious. Delivery driver is top class all the time.”

“Pizza deal was good value for money find the walk in or collection deals to be better then the delivered deals. Staff was nice and polite and the place looked clean which is reassuring and what you would expect when you go somewhere to buy food.”

“Went down in a big group I'd say about 20 of us. Nice decor. Nice food. Just about right.”

“Have just eaten out here with a friend for my birthday. I love curry and used to eat here when I lived in Sherwood. I had forgotten how good Saagar is. The food tonight was mouth watering. We could tell it was freshly cooked as you could taste the fresh ingredients with every mouthful. The service was friendly and courteous. I've eaten here before and was not disappointed tonight. My friend had never been to Saagar before and said it was was one of the best curries she had ever had.”

“An absolutely fantastic restaurant. The staff are amazing. The food is superb and the venue is beautiful. Hospitality is attentive and the food served in a timely manner with no rush but enough time to relax and enjoy. Top of the bill is the service. Friendly, engaging, intelligent and know exactly how to do their job. Very good. The food is fresh and superb. Very well cooked monkfish and amazingly tasty gravy. Fresh tandoori prawns were the best for a long time. So much on the menu we could have chosen was the hardest bit of the evening. Come and enjoy a wonderful night for either a group or a couple. It works just as well for everyone.”

“Very lovely survice & to top it all of, the quality of food was top tier, very fresh. Would definitely be coming back again.”

“Just had a tuna salad cob and it was the biggest I've ever had and very tasty, excellent price as well, definitely return for another, thanks”

“Since there's been a new manager the place has improved a great deal. Never once have I had a bad meal from here. The new staff and old one's are all very professional polite and always helpful. Even the food I've had on a takeaway basis has always been nice. Definitely one of my favourites in the area. They did a set meal with a band playing and was definitely my best night so far.”

“I had an excellent dining experience at this restaurant. The food was outstanding – full of rich, authentic flavours that showcase the best of Indian and Nepalese cooking. Each dish was prepared with real care and tasted fresh and perfectly balanced. The service was equally impressive; the attendant was friendly, attentive and genuinely made us feel welcome throughout. The atmosphere was warm and comfortable, making it an ideal spot for both casual meals and special occasions. Without doubt, this has become my favourite place in Nottingham for Indian and Nepalese cuisine, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for quality food and great hospitality.”

“Great Indian restaurant in the area. We walked in without a reservation and just managed to get a seat! They were at near full capacity. The food and drinks were cooked well and provided as an opportunity to enjoy some good local cuisine. We ordered the Tandoori Rattan and chips to share and we enjoyed it immensely! The service was good and the staff were pleasant. Definitely recommended!”

“We didn’t have a reservation but we were given a table immediately. The service was excellent, food even better, good portions and presentation, nice atmosphere, nothing not to like.”

“Both the food and service are unbelievable. Been a couple of times now, and is better than i remember, when i remember it being excellent in the first place! Lovely family owned business, must try if in the area.”

“Our first time ordering and it won't be the last. Great food, delivered on time and hot. We tried different dishes to our usual go to ones as there are many options on the menu. We were not disappointed, will order again. Plus they have a stamp scheme which we were unaware of which is an added bonus.”
