Authentic Indian food. Great price. Food well served. The seasonings have a balance nothing too strong to the customer's taste
Firstly my bottle of coke was flat. When I checked the date on the bottle, it had expired in March 2022. The vegetable balti wasn't very nice at all. Vegetables were over cooked and sauce was bland. Worse of all, they tried to over charge us. They had put on an extra £1 on each main dish and the drinks were £2.90 for a bottle and £2.20 for a glass of small coke. They had written down £6.75. Had to query the bill twice. They were not happy. When they brought the amended bill, they said they had given us a special discount, but the bill was what it was supposed to be. Always check your bill closely, and use a calculator to add it up. Never again
Lovely food and lovely staff. The food is really nice and light. Doesn't feel too heavy and not oily. We loved it :-
Delicious hot soft succulent lamb and very tasty never fails if you truly want to enjoy a curry try having it with jusy chapattis
Great friendly staff and owner. This is our local Indian/Bangladeshi restaurant if we craving curry eat-in at a restaurant. The mince meat curry is recommended.
Lovely traditional Indian restaurant. Great food and service.Food: 5/5

Food cold and tasteless definitely won't be ordering from there again can anyone recommend a good Indian takeaway in Barnet
There are actually no good Tandoori restaurants in Barnet, and Shapla is no exception. The staff are efficient but somewhat testy in their attitude. Food was served in good time, but when asked how everything was for the second time I decided to give my honest opinion. As a regular traveler to India, I have some idea of what to expect from a dish, even allowing for the British palette, the Mutter Paneer was completely flavourless. If the sauce contained any tomato, onions or cashew nut and Garam masala as it should, then I have lost my sense of taste. Just bland paneer and peas in some kind of pale mixture. I was told in response to this that mutter paneer is a ‘mild dish’, as though I am not to the know the difference between chilli and spice. The chicken Tikka had not been anywhere near a tandoor oven that day and arrived dry and and almost without flavour. The onion ‘raita’ again, a spoonful of onion sitting on a blob of yoghurt. Not mixed, no cummin, no salt, nothing. The pilau rice was cool, yellow and void of any taste or aroma. My fellow diners agreed with me as we lamented the fact that sat in an empty restaurant on a Thursday night and wondered when there will be a decent Indian restaurant in the area.
Excellent food, friendly family owned restaurant. Butter chicken like no other served here, tandoori chicken from here is also a favourite. <1min walk from council carpark, and bus stop right outside.Food: 5/5
