For me it's definitely the best Indian restaurant in Chelmsford and I've tried them all!! Whenever, I have been to Shahjan for a meal the food has been delicious and authentic. You can taste the mesmerising spice blends and quality ingredients which make the currys far superior to other restaurants in the area. The service is excellent with knowledgeable waiters happy to help and recommend. The atmosphere is also what makes Shahjan unique as your always treated as a valued friend not just customer. It makes going out for a curry special. If you have never tried Shahjan then your missing out.
The best indian I've been to by far. As you walk you, you get a sense that this is a true Indian restaurant. The food is amazing, by far the best I have ever had, there is a huge range and the chef is very accomodating to individual needs. Honestly I can't stress enough how good the food is. The service is also fantastic with a friendly warm atmosphere, and the staff are knowledgeable and provide great hospitality. Prices are incredibley reasonable as well, I would thoroughly recommend this restaurant.
The food was excellent very tasty and the best part was the staff was so kind, professional and sweet especially “Munim”
Highly Recommended! One of the best
We had a really lovely evening. I had Salmon Tikka and it was the best I've had. The staff were very attentive with out being in your face. It's a traditional old school curry house and we will certainly revisit.
Fantastic curry,
If it ain't broke don't fix it, perhaps why it has been running for 44 years
Legendary chelmo curry house.
Very very good service. Food pretty standard. But did the trick
Small quite little Indian, must book in advance. Service was very quick, staff very friendly and attentive. Food was excellent. Not cheap but well worth the money. Reccomend the Irish Coffee it was lush.
Brilliant service and food. Some of the best Indian dishes I have ever tried. The restaurant interior is classically beautiful. The staff were amazing and accommodating.
U no who we are came here tonight the curry was lovely best indian restaurant in town
Ate on a late Sunday evening and had the Special Tandoori Mixed Grill - it was excellent! Came out on a sizzling platter and all tasted great.
Service was exceptional and very welcoming, strongly recommended.
Always a great welcome. Excellent menu, great authentic tastes, service is quick and full licence. Very reasonable prices. Atmosphere good and immaculately clean.
Great food and very sweet service.
Vast menu with great service and excellent food.
Visited recently with a good old friend and colleague, who happens to be of Indian origin. We both enjoyed the tasty food, service was with a smile and the atmosphere was a pleasant one, with soft Indian music in the background.
I have eaten at this Indian restuarant multiple times and have always been very pleased with the food and service.
Recently visited for a friend's birthday - the service was great and the staff were both happy and friendly. They did what they could to make the meal extra special for the birthday boy which the whole party appreciated.
The food tastes great with good portion sizes. There was a variety of food ordered with no complaints from anyone in the party.
The resturant is smaller so booking in advance is advised. Would highly recommend!
Absolutely the most tasty Indian meal we have eaten for years.
Food delicious and service very good .
A traditional Indian but atmosphere spoilt by a few other diners.
Came in on a Friday evening, had an amazing experience because of our exceptional server, Oscar. Was very attentive and welcoming, made sure we had everything we wished for. Food was great also, would definitely recommend!!
Food delicious as ever. Never had a bad meal there. Toilets could do with a refurb though. Had the same cracked cistern in the gents for as long as I can remember.
We never go anywhere else for an Indian.
