Shamiana Takeaway - Welwyn Hatfield

The flavors at Shamiana are wonderful - spicy and delicious. I always turn to Shamiana when craving authentic South Asian cuisine. Their food is tasty, nutritious, and Halal. While they had some delivery issues before, they have made improvements to ensure timely service. This effort is commendable.

Ordered a Biryani and chilli nan got boiled chicken and rice and a nan with no chilli’s !!! Noting special at all average no spice when you walk in and see cobwebs in the ceiling it doesn’t inspire confidence to order food took the risk you will and you learn,

As an Indian, I typically avoid ordering Indian food when dining out because it tends to be overly sweet and overly spicy with too much chili powder, which is not to my taste. However, my recent experience at this restaurant was absolutely amazing. The staff was very helpful in providing recommendations, so I decided to try the Vegetable Biryani with a side of vegetable sauce, chili paneer, and paneer tikka starter, all made spicy. The food was of high quality, with generous portions at a great price of 5.95 for the biryani. The dish was flavorful with whole spices, and it completely changed my perspective on vegetarian biryani. My housemate ordered the lamb biryani and was able to swap the curry for sag paneer for a small additional cost. I noticed some negative reviews online, but I believe it's important to inquire about the level of sweetness or spiciness when placing an order. I didn't experience any issues with late delivery as my food arrived promptly. Overall, I highly recommend giving this place a try for authentic and delicious Indian cuisine.

Food was cold and also order was wrong! Ordered a butter chicken and got chicken korma! Would not order again.

Awful service awful staff food cold and dry would not go to even if I was starving avoid and save your money
