Golden Shalimar

Found this place after Saturday tube closures stranded us at Paddington. Me and my Dad were in the capital watching football and had been drinking all day and wanted a curry. This place catered to our needs and the food was just what we needed after a day on the drink. Food was reasonably priced (For London) and tasty. The waiters were friendly and attentive. Would recommend if you are a group of lads wanting a stomach liner when on the beer.

Some of the best Indian food you will ever have is in London and I do not particularly like Indian food. Unless I am in London. I thought the food was definitely very good and service was good as well. Price to portions were good. If you are staying in Paddington this is a good place to grab a bite.

We went to the restaurant yesterday afternoon (04/12/2018) as a group of four. My wife has some dietary issues so we asked if her prawns could be grilled alone and they were happy to oblige. The rest of the food was very tasty, well seasoned and the sauces not too oily or greasy which I have experienced before when eating in other Indian restaurants. The portion sizes were good, I have a very small appetite and can only eat small amounts at a time and there was a bit left over but the others in the group were stuffed afterwards so it was plentiful. Wait time wasn't too long or too short and we weren't made to feel rushed although it was a late lunch so not sure how busy they get of an evening. Hot towels were bought at the end so we could refresh which was nice. Overall a good experience, lovely food and relaxing environment.

A really affordable and quick and efficient Indian food place! I'm a vegan and they were able to make accommodations by using oil instead of butter on the naan. Ordered the Channa Marsala and Aloo Gobi. AMAZING. Both had the right spice and a gentle enough kick. There was a lemon in the Channa that made for an interesting twist to the meal. Borderline wanted to lick the plates clean it was that good.

Wonderful service and food. I've been visiting England for three weeks and this is the best food that I've had in three weeks. The staff are friendly and helpful and they offer an excellent selection of real Indian dishes,. I'm just a visitor but they seem to have a number of local residents eating here too so you know that it's good.

“My favourite Indian restaurant.” The menu was interesting and unusual, and everything we ordered was delicious. The staff were very attentive, and came to check with us that the food had been ok when one of our party didn't manage to finish all of their main course. They showed genuine concern for the quality of the food. Finally, the bill was entirely reasonable. Perhaps a little more pricey than an average Indian but definitely well worth it. Can't praise this place highly enough!
