Food was lovely and I was very happy I could find something slightly healthier on the menu. Everyone was over the moon with how nice their food was. However I have knocked a star off for the service which wasn't very consistent, was fine at the start but then we were nagged constantly to give the chutney bowl back even though we said we wanted to keep it for our main meals, and then towards the end of the evening any service just disappeared entirely and it was hard to get anyone's attention. They asked twice if it was someone's birthday which it was but then never brought anything out for him even though they did bring a free dessert or something with a candle for other tables birthdays in the restaurant. And we ordered some ice cream that took over 30 mins to arrive at the end of the night . Not terrible just inconsistent... service. Would still visit again for food alone.
Delicious food and friendly staff happy to tell you about the history etc. - the passion shows. We live far away but would definitely come back again in passing and recommend 😁
What a lovely place to dine in. If I have to score them for hospitality, I would give then 110 out of 100. The waiting staff are fantastic. They are kind, suggest what should be the best for order and cater to your choice. A very homely atmosphere, fantastic food and generous portion. We have been living in sheffield for 7 years, never tried before, but they now got a regular diner :) They went out of their way to serve us authentic bangladeshi chai, which was probably not on the menu, such a beautiful gesture so that we could continue chatting with our friends little more. Thank you so much for serving us last night. Every staff was fantastic and food was great. Will see you again :)
I’ve been to Shapla many times now and always enjoy a good meal. My recent visit I opted for the Shapla Lamb Tikka special and it was excellent. The keema naan was superb and one of the best I’ve had, with loads of meat! I’d recommend visiting when you’re in Sheffield as you won’t be disappointed. The only negative for me is it is often quiet which impacts the atmosphere a bit and a real shame as it’s a warm and friendly restaurant there’s very welcoming and supported with great service.
Perfectly reasonable old school curry house, a little old fashioned in decor but none the worse for that. Very clean and tidy looking which counts for a lot in my book. Very very friendly staff, the mix starter for 4 was plentiful and tasty. The pickle tray which came with it was bountiful. Huge. Licenced place, the usual cobra on tap. I was slightly less impressed with my curry as it meant to be quite spicy and was in fact slightly bland. The chunks of lemon in the lemon rice were a touch too chunky for my taste. So, fine if you are dropping by, order a hot one if you want a medium one, thinknabout the mixed starter as that's a triumph, and choose fairly conservatively beyond that.
