“So wonderful. We’re still talking about it a day later. This restaurant had us at tamarind with eggplant and chickpeas. Also cheers for the chili chickpea Bahjia. Other items kept our smiles going. Pleasant service. It is the only place we would go if we were in the area again. Can you hear our applause to the chef and cooks?!“
“I got the lamb kebab wrap with everything on it. I couldn't recommend it more! The lamb was cooked perfectly and seasoned well, and the pita had the right amount of meat and fillings in it (and it didn't fall apart while I ate it).“
“Very nice and clean place! Service was friendly and polite. Food was delicious full of flavor! I got lamb Rogan Josh comes with rice and my boyfriend got chicken curry comes with rice. We each got mango lassi and we got 2 naan bread (rosemary and garlic). We also got a dessert to share. The bill was $62. I think the price was good and portion size was Perfect! We will be coming back!! Thank you!!“
“I was CRAVING chicken Kashmiri bad tonight but my husband is not a big fan of the spice in traditional Indian food. As a compromise, we settled on Galleria 7 in Latham, a multi-ethnic food market with excellent vendors, including @Shalimar express.I called around 5 to ask if Shalimar express makes chicken Kashmiri. The nice man answered, told me no and respectfully hung up the call. Within five minutes, the owner, Leo, called me back to tell me that although they do not have chicken Kashmiri as a menu item, they were able to make a modified version and call is chili chicken. We arrived around 615 and Leo greeted us with a smile and a “it was you!!!” He proceeded to explain how he would custom make a dish for me and would make it suitable for my dietary needs. He really didn’t not have to but this man went above and beyond to make sure I had a great experience.We received the food within 15 minutes and it was DELICIOUS. The chicken was soft and tender, the garlic naan was flavorful and the veggies were absolute perfection. My husband had the Curry chicken and loved every bite. Leo even came and spoke to us about his history, his family and his love for serving his friends.We never post on this page but Leo made this experience such a memorable one. He went far beyond great customer service and truly the food was Amazing. If you are ever in all Latham, give them a try.“
“The food was absolutely amazing! The buffet was hot all the food was very fresh. The service is unmatched. The staff are extremely friendly. The variety for vegetarian and individuals that prefer meat is there! Also the buffet changes daily and I have yet to have something I did not like. I highly recommend Dosa Grill Albany!“
“Awesome food. I had a little trouble finding the place as it was in a nearby town in a food court. Once found, thr food was delicious. Some of the best samosas I've had and I asked for the chicken tikka masala spicy amd it was perfect. The owner was the first one on the area to open the other Shalimar Indian restaurants in the area and he told me he had sold them all and opened this place. I was telling him that the quality had gone down at the other places and this place was better. Next time if I'm not so hungry I would get take out. I only wish that this place was closer and that I had a little more tikka sauce bc it was that good!!“
“Went here for Saratoga restaurant week. It fills a current gap in the area which is Chaat and slightly faster Indian Cuisine. It doesn't even have to compete in the same type of foods as its neighbor across Clifton County Road, and our food horizons are all the more welcome for it. Ordered a paneer bowl and side of Naan. Plenty of food, lots of sauce, delicious. Tried some of my friends Masala Fries, they're not for me but I can see them meeting a need. Naan side is only half a naan or two quarter pieces, so just know that when you order.“
“First time trying Indian cuisine. I was surprised how good the food was in the lunch brunch. I had the salad with yogurt dressing, very nice and refreshing. I read all of the menu signs and went for the least spicy, butter chicken, tandoori chicken, pakoras, of course rice. I tried the curry and chickpeas medley-it was very good but was too spicy for my palate. Meal came with a beverage at no cost, which was nice. Very nice restaurant with an older gentleman who led you to your table. Very nice, recommend you try.“
“Wherever I go to a new city, I love to try the Indian food. Albany, this is a gem! I have never had better Indian food anywhere in the country. The complexities of flavors and textures and temperatures that make Indian food spectacular are all here. I had a sweet lassi, vegetable samosas, naan and Navratan Korma. Flawless.“
“The butter chicken pizza is really good and all the Indian dishes I have had have been surprisingly great. Flavorful and surprisingly spicy. The atmosphere is a little odd, so I wouldn't recommend eating here, but the take out is great.“
“This is one of the best authentic Pakistani restaurants in town, brought my picky Punjabi parents here and they loved it. Their channa and naan are awesome, also love their daal, chicken karahi, and seekh kabobs.Bonus: if you can read Urdu/Punjabi their interior wall art is hilarious!!Vegetarian options: Daal, Channa, saag, mixed veg, naans“
“LOVE LOVE LOVE this place. I've been ordering the Chicken Tikka Masala from here for a few years now and it NEVER DISAPPOINTS. The sauce is so well rounded and delicious, super creamy, but also super flavorful. Their garlic naan is also amazing. My fiance ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala pizza from here recently and loved it. I tried a piece and it was very good. Super innovative to turn their dishes into pizza form. He's gotten the Tandoori Chicken a few times as well and it's excellent. The customer service is great and everyone is always very friendly. I often find myself daydreaming about the next time I get to order food from here. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.“
“Amazing delicious food.So many great spices and flavors. Restaurant and cooks need more credit definitely. They’re so kind here and if you ordered something you have an allergy to in the dish they will let you know, even call you back.Dietary restrictions: Let them know and they will accommodate! So great“
