We enjoyed the Hoteliers Feast recently (fixed menu). Nice starter platter and main, we gather the usual menu is very wide ranging and our takeaways have always been very good. Well-priced, well-cooked and comfy. What's not to like?

Fantastic meal.... tried something different from usually Indian menu... paid off lovely; will definitely go back... highly recommend �
The food was excellent, could not fault it if I tried it was fresh, hot, and very tasty. Talking to one of the staff found out that they were 3 members of staff down, but the service didn't suffer at all.
The restaurant is clean and tables were cleared at speed, and the staff lovely. 100% will eat there again.
Food & service excellent all cooked fresh, & good portion size. Restaurant comfortable & clean.
Have been to this India quite a few times over the years, & never been disappointed. The best in Weymouth
We must have walked for miles looking for an Indian restaurant Saturday night and after talking to one of the fishing boat owners we eventually discovered Shalims Balti House. I have to say that the food was superb, the staff very friendly and the surroundings and ambience delightful. A wonderful culinary experience.
Visited early on a Wednesday 6.45pm, a steady trickle of people visiting while we were there. Tasty lovely looking food, polite helpful staff.
Here yesterday, called and booked a table straight away for 9 people no problem. Seated in a booth enabling us all to talk to each other! Staff were very accommodating and the food was piping hot and delicious, we would definitely come here again!!
Supurb, best onion b's, anywhere excellent dhansak and phatia, lots of garlic all dishes well spiced, service was spot on.
Superb. Can't fault it at all. I have eaten in many Indian restaurants all over the country and this is up there with the best
Another fantastic meal with a large group of friends. Wonderful service and delicious food. Thank you x
Just had a wonderful meal here .
Good friendly & quick service, nothing was to much trouble.
Food was delicious, gets a 10 from me ��
They accommodated 9 of us in a round, served delicious Asian food without any fuss. Great service and a reasonable price. Will be returning on our next holidays in Dorset.
Impromptu visit to Shalims and so happy we did. Long overdue and the food and service was sublime! What a treat!!
Fantastic food takeout or eat in Staff very good had 3 Xmas day meals there all have been excellent
I had an amazing dining experience at this exceptional Indian restaurant! The service was outstanding, and they took great care of us. The food was incredibly delicious, clearly prepared with love. Highly recommended if you're in the area. The restaurant boasts a luxurious and modern ambiance, and they offer takeout options.
Friendly place, modern decor, and really outstanding food. Probably the best I've had in the UK. I think you'd need to go as far as Birmingham to find anywhere that could compete. Not cheap, but not all that expensive either, and definitely worth it.
We came here whilst on holiday and overall I’ve got to say we were pleased.
We ordered 3 x chicken tikka madras with boiled rice, poppadoms, plain naan bread, onion salad and onion bhajis. As we collected we saved 10% off the total bill. If I remember right, it was around £50-£60. I liked the sweetness of the Madras here, which then led to the warmth of the spice. The chicken pieces are fairly small, but you got a few of them. The naan was quite small, but I get these are made to order and they don’t all come out of the clay over the same shape or size. Poppadoms were fresh and had the right amount of crunch to them. The picture was taken after I’d started eating. The restaurant which we collected from was fairly busy with customers eating in…we collected not long after opening time…I always judge an Indian by this as it shows it’s popular. I’d go back and eat here again.
Fantastic food and service! The flavours of all the dishes were exceptional and for a reasonable price. The vegetarian/vegan menu also has a lot of options and also different to the standard protein replacements. Highly recommended!
Nice decor, food was very good. A strange start to our visit though. When we entered there were some people at the front desk (bar) paying their bill. ( It seems this is what you do when you are finished. Not ask for the bill and pay at the table). Staff were interested in taking the money, then went back to clearing and resetting tables. I couldn't get the man's attention we were ignored. Eventually the lady at the bar said someone would be with us shortly. As she said that, a waiter came and took us to our table. We were very close to giving up and leaving.
As I entered the restaurant was very quiet but within a very short time it was full. The menu had a great selection of meals, I hadn’t heard of most of the specials which I tend to go for. I can’t remember the exact name of the dish I selected but it was absolutely brilliant meal. I loved it! The service was efficient and attentive despite the full restaurant. All in all a great find.
This is the first Indian restaurant I have been to and the first time my partner has tried a curry . It was absolutely delicious and well worth the price . I wish I could have finished everything though my stomach couldn’t manage it that night . My food was offered to be packed up which I would have done if I wasn’t staying in a BnB and had to travel by train the next day. I can only hope that my local Indian restaurant is as good as this place.
Overall good food and atmosphere! Recommendable! Writing this review makes me fancy their food right now...😁
Absolutely fantastic.
The food and the atmosphere in this amazing restaurant are 10/10, every time we visit.
Unfortunately though we have had to mark down the service as this was pretty poor and thats a first in over 10 years.
Very slow at clearing the table and I left a Cobra bottle and empty glass right on the end of the table and I lost count how many times the staff just looked at it and walked on.
However, the quality of the food and atmosphere is the main reason we go here and quite simply it just cant be beat.
Thanks Shalim and we'll be seeing you again very soon.
Absolutely delicious, you never fail to prepare the most wonderful meals. After 11 years of custom, you're still our absolute favourite. Many thanks.
Amazing food, great service and atmosphere
In Weymouth for a short weekend break. Booked Shalims for 2 people not knowing anything about it. Wow what a treat. Smart well designed dining area, staff couldn't do enough for you, pleasant, helpful and service fast. Food was 11 out of 10. Probably best Indian dining experience we have experienced. We'll done guys 🍺👍👌😎👍
Gorgeous restaurant, perfect atmosphere, lovely staff and very attentive. We had a lovely chambliss, garlic chilli chicken (not too spicy but has a nice kick) and akbori chicken mosala (again nice kick but not too spicy) all delicious. portion sizes aren’t huge but perfect to eat everything you order; especially if you’re planning on sharing a few dishes amongst the table. The Roti bread was delicious as was the naan. All in all a very enjoyable evening and should we visit Weymouth again we will surely dine here.
First time visiting, heard a lot of good things about this place and I can happily say, expectations were certainly met, from working in the hospitality industry myself I was amazed on the service! The quality of food was excellent and atmosphere was great, really enjoyed my visit
Will definitely be returning and a massive thank you to the staff who made my first visit great😊
Absolutely 💯 indian restaurant. Great service, even when busy. Small private booths or large ones, to suit all customers needs. Free parking opposite is massive bonus . Highly recommend
