Shalimar

Shalimar, Dublin: 2026 July 12 (5 of 5)…read more Let's Meet for Lunch When a handful of friends reunite, time seems to disappear. This get-together is at Shalimar Restaurant in Dublin. Shalimar serves authentic Pakistani and Indian food. The atmosphere here is casual and unassuming. It's an open eatery with community tables and chairs on both sides of the tables. There are also booths and benches for those who need some privacy. This canteen-style eatery focuses on food. You order and pay at the counter. They get your name, and your order is served fresh and piping hot. Everyone ordered something different: Tandoori Chicken, Fresh Baked Naan, Goat Biryani, Fish, Okra, Goat Karahi, Biryani Rice, and several other dishes. The dishes were placed in the middle of the long table and we all got to taste everyone's food. Every dish was flavourful and the seasoning on each dish was on-point. Their naan is baked daily - and you can taste the freshness of the bread. The vibe was strong because it's been an absolute age since we last met up. All nine of us picked up where we left off. As we filled our plates with delicious eats, conversation flowed while we joked and ate. The short reunion came to an end when Shalimar breaks for two hours before it opens again for dinner. We bade goodbye as we went our separate ways. Until the next chapter...

I recommend the leg and thigh chicken tikka (we ordered 2) the amazingly fresh and fabulous naan (we ordered 2), and the spinach with potatoes and fenugreek. Then take a side of raw onions and the yogurt mint chutney (complementary in the refrigerator for guests to help themselves). Add a cup of complementary hot chai (help yourself). Lovely relaxed dinner for two in under $35! Just fyi: this is a super casual, hole in the wall. But if you're in for an authentic experience, and really care about well prepared food, this is your place. Ignore the decor and enjoy the food! It's self service. Polite, matter of fact service. Go up to the counter and order, and your food is brought to your table.

My husband said it's the best chicken tandoori he's ever had. It was perfectly seasoned with a great smoky char. The goat curry was phenomenal! It was rich and the depth of flavor was perfect with naan. We ordered garlic naan but I think plain naan would've complimented the curry better . The garlic naan was a little overpowering. All that came to about $45 including tax and tip for two people . Parking was smooth since they have a pretty generous parking lot. I'd recommend this place for family meals and lunch meetups.

Went to this place a couple of weeks back but wanted to give you a review today. It was quite a bit of a drive for me but was definitely worth it. We had the buffet and it soooo inexpensive. & what variety of food for that money. We had fish pakoras that were really good. The tandoori was ok too. Loved the chicken (think its called butter chicken) the lamb was really well cooked. I tried some vegetarian food too but i usually only love non vegetarian food when i try indian cuisine. Everything was so tasty. They got out fresh naan every time. And we went when they were about to close and there was no rice and when i asked for it, the lady got a nice big bowl of rice and i felt so guilty that i wanted just a little bit and so much got wasted :( I hate wasting food. The service was grrrreat. They did it all with a smile, kept checking on us and asked if we needed anything. I only wish that kid who started sweeping when we were eating didn't do that coz i didn't feel like eating with someone sweeping next to me. But all is forgiven coz the food is really too tasty. Definitely driving to this restaurant again. Esp mention to the lady who was there coz she was really polite, nice and great at customer service. By the way I also loved the way this restaurant separates the non vegetarian food from the vegetarian food. read more

Indian Garden is a true gem in the world of Indian cuisine. The garlic naan is absolutely divine - it's perfectly crispy on the outside, yet fluffy and pillowy on the inside. And when paired with their butter chicken, it's nothing short of culinary nirvana. The butter chicken is rich, creamy and full of bold, complex flavors that will dance on your taste buds.

Unfortunately,they shut down their lunch buffet during COVID and never brought it back. All the food at the other tables looked good so we decided to give it a try à la carte. We ordered chicken tikka masala, chicken vindaloo, and tandoori chicken. Since à la cart we als ordered two rice and one garlic naan to go with the curries. Serving sizes were good - not small at all but not huge either. Service was very friendly and consistent.. Tikka masala was thick and flavorful. Over the basmati rice was a perfect bite. Vindaloo was also juicy but felt that the sauce could have been a little thicker. Had also asked for super spicy vindaloo but it didn't feel that hot (but did make me sweat like crazy!). Tandoori was tasty but could have been juicier. Felt like it was precooked and warmed up versus being cooked fresh. The tandoori was a till very tasty though. Cost was a little on the high side since everything is à la carte (rice and naan extra). Three dishes, two rice and a garlic naan came out to $74 with leftovers. Lunch would have been $20-25 each if we only got two dishes instead of three. Overall we plan to return and try other menu items. The friendliness of the staff (I think she was the owner) alone would make us come back, but the food was yummy too! In fact, I think we will door dash some Ashoka for poker tonight!

It's a nice, comfortable, family-friendly place, which makes the overall dining experience even better. I also had a chance to meet and talk with Chef Mr. Siva. He was very humble, friendly, and genuinely passionate about the food. I feel this is exactly the kind of restaurant that people should support and help grow. Before leaving, I also got a mutton biryani to-go. They gave me a small cup to taste beforehand, and based on that, I already know it's going to be really good! I'm giving this review 5 stars because that's the maximum Yelp allows, but honestly, the food, freshness, quality, and value here deserve 7 stars -- or whatever the highest rating you can name! Outstanding food, great ambience, excellent value, and a wonderful experience overall. One of the best lunch thalis I've had in the Bay Area. Highly recommend this place to everyone!

I still go here for the wraps when the craving strikes. I mostly order takeout style and mostly the paneer and the chicken wraps. I enjoy the paneer wrap more than the paneer tikka one, because the latter is basically just paneer tikka and naan. The paneer wrap on the other hand has an aloo tikki (usually a bit spicy) and a slab of pan fried paneer. I like that they don't skimp on the paneer and provide the extra chutneys for you to add per your taste. Placing the order over the phone is super easy and I have never had a negative experience. The staff works efficiently and are friendly. Parking can be a bit of a problem in this complex but nothing that can't be worked out.

I just realized I never wrote a review for this place. I used to order their family pack biryani…read moreregularly, and it always came with a good amount of meat pieces, chicken 65, one soda, and one gulab jamun. One time, I even requested to replace the soda with an extra gulab jamun in the comments section while ordering, and they actually acknowledged it, which I appreciated. But last week, I ordered the same family pack biryani again, and the experience was completely different. The biryani had noticeably fewer meat pieces, the chicken 65 quantity was smaller, and there was no gulab jamun either. I was really disappointed this time. To be fair, they never officially mentioned anywhere that the family pack includes these extra items. This expectation was based on my previous experiences ordering from them. Still, the inconsistency was disappointing.

My colleagues crave this location and we have always come here when they visit from the other offices. I have tried to find flaky naan like this to see if it's as good and I haven't found anything yet. I'm wondering if it's a certain regional kind that's special to Southern India? I like the environment inside of the restaurant. Service is polite and the gal who is usually up front is very welcoming. There was however some confusion about whether they would come to our table to collect payment or whether we were expected to go up to the front. The other stuff I had from here was tasty but wasn't as remarkable as the butter chicken. I was also a tad bit disappointed that their entrees don't come with a little bit of rice, especially with the prices for everything. But all in all I would recommend this place and I do tell people about it. The owners work hard and I hope they succeed with this place! Thank you for the tasty food!

Some of the food was too spicy to be enjoyable. The rest lacked flavor. I guess this is to be expected when you have a buffet with 20+ options. We never really had a server and the whole experience was a little chaotic. We just basically started eating and hoped for the best. At one time a I flagged a waitress for soda but she said they don't have any? I thought it was just me who didn't enjoy the food but my entire South Indian family also said it was awful I'm sure this place could improve greatly if they mastered a few dishes instead of trying to put out everything under the sun and hope for the best
