Reviews for Shalimar Restaurant in Sacramento, CA
Sept 2022 Update - I came back to this location first time after pandemic. I ordered tandoor leg, lamb gosht and chickpeas. Lamb... gosht was really bad, hardly any meat and watered down. Won’t recommend it. Love Shalimar!! Their tandoori chicken breastsare awesome. Read more
My husband and I went yesterday. The food was so delicious! We had the ground chicken and tandoori chicken breast. My only... complaint— portion sizes are pretty small for the price. Read more
The location is EXCELLENT with great accessibility and parking. The restaurant has indoor and outdoor seatings. The menu has a... lot of items. The actual menu has been printed on a very large sheet. The food quantity may be misleading because they use 16(sixteen) OZ by weight (refer to the posted photos). The price is hefty for the quantity and quality. Read more
Last night I had two exams I didn’t cook and got chicken kabob from Shalimar when I opened it at iftar time it was burned and... smelled burned couldn’t eat it. How can a Muslim cheat other Muslim customer in fasting month of Ramadan while fasting? Thisis a shame for Muslim restaurants to cheat other Muslim. I got this food for my iftar I didn’t cook anything I ended up beingfasting again today while I didn’t eat anything last night. Non Muslim restaurants trash if food is burned but Muslimsdoesn’t care cheat a customer and sell it. At the end they are proud that they are Muslim and honest. Will not buy from thisplace again.

FOOD: Inedible The food was so bad we had to throw it all away. None of the dishes tasted as they should. Everything was greasy,... especially the Kabli Channa. There was no paneer in the Palak Paneer. Okra was not cooked through. SERVICE: Terrible I orderedand paid online; got a confirmation that the food would be ready in 35 minutes. When I showed up for my pickup, no one had anyclue about my order. It took them a good 15 minutes to figure it out and then another 30 minutes to prepare. Also, they didn'thave some dishes I ordered, so (after all the wait!) they reimbursed money for the missing items. They didn't even apologize forthe mishap. AMBIANCE: Off-putting Hygiene and sanitation were far from acceptable - everything looked dirty and sticky. Theplace smelled bad and was aesthetically unpleasing. Read more
Ordered Butter chicken and Onion Kulcha to go and when brought food home, kulchas were smelling really really bad, when called... the restaurant, they said they are closed and also added these are onions that smell Like this. We use Onions everyday at homeand also order from outside, never have had such BAD smell. And he added I can pick up tomorrow these kulchas. Thanks forSpoiling our evening. Do NOT recommend at all.

It is a nice restaurant. They have nice food . But this time they gave us uneatable burned food. i called them and Complained... they said okay We will give you another one for it next time . So today when I came in again and showed them the pictures theysaid like Oh we can't do anything it is what it is. The washed chops are like this. I have taken washed lamb chops many timesbut they never were like this. And it wasnt just the lamb chops also the chicken. And they ignored it like as its nothing. Sothat why I am posting this review. . Read more
Friendly staff. However, A bit overpriced for what you get. Chicken tikka masala is to oily for me/minimal on the chicken. Also,... a bit disappointed how rice is not included in the cost. Have to buy separately. Never had been to and Indian restaurant whereit wasn’t included.. Read more
