Super disappointed that my Tikka masala was delivered without rice. Given the importance, that should never happen. Uber gave me a $1 credit which is a complete joke on a $20 entree that is pretty much worthless without the rice.

Shirley's hasn't disappointed since we discovered them over a year ago. This week we tried the butter chicken empanadas, which were excellent!!
You will usually need to wait a while for your food but I like their texting system. Worth the wait. Still to go only, so not much to speak to , in terms of ambiance. It's pretty cool to be able to get good Indian food without dining in though.

I placed the order on the phone directly to the restaurant. It was easy and the person taking the order was helpful . The food is excellent and it was ready on time. I will gladly continue being their happy customer.

Had been here for the first time. We tried butter chicken empanadas, buffalo chicken samosas, chicken korma and goat pepper fry. The food was delicious. Loved the creamy empanadas with a side of makhani sauce and not mint sauce. Buffalo chicken were okayish, needed more flavor and crisp. Korma was creamy with tender chicken, little high on salt. Goat pepper fry was spicy and meaty, very flavorful. The only downside is that they are only takeout so if you’re traveling from far away like us you need to uncomfortably eat that in your car.

New Review June 2025: I'm back to edit my review- we've ordered from Shirley's twice in the last month and the quality and flavors are BACK! They listened and made the necessary changes in the kitchen, and have recovered their delicious recipes. The textures, seasoning, and spices are all top notch. Service is timely and they deliver when you expect or have your food ready for pick up. I highly recommend the tikka masala, butter chicken, vindaloo, saag, and chan masala. Get all the extra chutneys and sauces. The flavors are outrageously delicious. You can also order certain dishes as vegan (made with coconut milk) which is great for my dairy free friends. I really appreciate that they worked to get back greatness- the owner or manager also reached out to me via email to express frustration and ask me to try the restaurant again, which I really appreciated. As promised in my initial review- this restaurant is now firmly back in our take out rotation and we're excited to share it with some friends coming to town from Canada this weekend!

OLD review from Dec 2024:

Pretty new to New Rochelle and this was one of our greatest finds as former Brooklynites- up until a few months ago, this was some of the most delicious well spiced Indian food I've ever had in my life. Service was always good, and then right around the New Year they either lost their chef/kitchen staff or switched owners, because all the recipes are 100% different, except maybe the chutneys. The first time it happened, I was shocked but thought maybe it was a fluke. The tikka masala, vindaloo, curry chicken, even the samosas are overcooked (dry, not sealed properly), under seasoned, and salty. Their tikka masala used to be bright red, velvety, complex: now it looks like regular curry and has a very average uninteresting spice profile. The vindaloo was also a completely different color and more salty than hot. I too have experienced oily broken sauces. I can't begin to express how sad we are and Shirley's- if you are reading this- please go back to your old recipes. We used to order once a month and told all our friends and family about you. Whatever has changed, the quality and exceptional flavor that your patrons loved is gone. It's a big loss, considering how small the pool of great take out places is in New Ro to begin with. Bring back the old flavors and I'll be your best customer. Looking forward to hearing your feedback.

We basically had our most tasteless food ever. Waiting time 40 mins as I did order there on spot. Understanding food would be great. But experienced first time Indian food with very poor taste and No flavor. Got heartbroken!

We got takeout on a busy weekend and I was SUPER impressed with the service and ability to confidently speak to allergens in the food. Got a fully gluten free meal and everything we had was completely delicious. Fresh, well prepared food that was plentiful. Will definitely go back.

Honestly mediocre at best. Nothing I ate was all that delicious. Shouldn’t have fallen for the stupid TikTok promoting it
