Not your average Indian restaurant. Offering a very different, and upmarket menu. Excellent food, and great service. Definitely at the top of my list, when we’re in Shrewsbury.

Excellent all round, great range of dishes, some tasty little starters including duck, guinea fowl, king prawns and beef and all our main courses were delicious. Service was wonderful too so we’ll be back soon.

Thank you for your care and attention when our friend was unwell for a short time- we think eating the chilli made him overheat. He is fine again now. Super meal and service

Regular visitor to Avatar and it’s the most consistently excellent curry house in Shrewsbury with a difference. Extensive choice of Nepalese dishes that are outrageously tasty. Take away service is also excellent! The staff go the extra mile to make every visit special.

Located a few minutes walk from the River Seven Avatar offers excellent service, quality freshly prepared food presented in a fresh and pleasant environment. On street parking can often be found close to the restaurant or within 150 yards off street parking is also available. Finally, overall affords diners a good food experience.

Lovely food, sorry I like curry served in separate bowls so you can share and try other dishes with friends. The meals are plated up individually. Upon leaving they couldn’t be bothered to call us a taxi, even after a 10% tip (yes I regret that now but silly me thought they might bother to call a cab) and sadly the service wasn’t great that night, you were constantly trying to get their attention, understandably it was very busy but we seemed to be trying for ten minutes just to order another drink or request water. It takes over your evening constantly trying to make eye contact. the room became stifling eventually we got someones attention to ask for the air conditioning to be turned on - ah the relief! More staff needed at the weekends perhaps. If you don’t share food this is a good place for you, happily we like to try each other’s foods and the food we could not fault.

The food is fantastic. The usual Indian dishes are on the menu bur also a lot of Nepalese dishes which need to be tried. The service is excellent too and with a varied wine list this makes Avatar one of Shrewsbury's best restaurants. Avatar is a restaurant we visit regularly and more than happy to write a great review.

This is top quality Indian/Nepalese food. We had a salmon tikka starter which was delicious. A Gurkha lamb and a lamb saslik to follow. Both extremely good, the lamb tender and plentiful. Side dishes of chickpeas/potatoes and a mixed vegetable bhaji also excellent, the latter containing a wide range of fresh vegetables, still al dente, lightly coated in sauce. Too often, a mixed vegetable curry is a sludge of over cooked frozen stuff. Definitely not here. Naans were hot, fresh and fluffy. Two Asian beers on draught and a very fairly priced list of wines supplied by local specialist merchants Tanners.

Party of 4 all had different mains all cooked to perfection. Service excellent greeted on arrival made to feel very welcome as it was a pre-theatre booking which was confirmed on arrival the staff ensured that we were served promptly without being rushed. Excellent start to a very civilised night out.
