Great food, great service and nice surroundings. The matter shazlik starter is probably the best I have ever had! I've been twice now and would definitely go again.
Food good, service good. Would definitely use again. We were in a party of 6 we all had different meals and everyone enjoyed. Pleased to see the restaurant was busy from early in the evening.
Slightly unusual take on classic indian dishes (in a good way) and the largest naan breads in the world. Not cheap but still good value.
My only niggle is that the restaurant is dimly lit which made reading the menu challenging, but the food was amazing. Best Chicken Pakora ever!
If you're looking for a nice Indian meal in Leeds, look no further than Shabab. We were there for New Years eve and it didnt dissappoint. Lovely food and we had the lovely Corina looking after us. It's not the first time we've been and it wont be the last.
Really nice food and kind staff! But of confusion over the order but other then that it was great. I would recommend. Could have a better wine menu
Lovely place, food was delicious and quick service. All that was needed to make it perfect was an occasional smile from the staff. Would recommend.
Service was excellent. We were a little late for our reservation but nothing was too much trouble. Food, second to none. We will be back soon.
We loved the food. Would recommend the seafood starter for two. Very good service. The staff were helpful and friendly. Would definitely eat there again.
Food and service was excellent. Manager berated a member of staff quite loudly and publicly which was a little embarrassing. Otherwise it was a very enjoyable experience.
On a busy night the service was quick and efficient, the food was served hot and it was tasty, overall a good experience and well worth a visit.
It was lovely food and a friendly service. Me and my partner would definately go again. The staff recommended which food to order and was great.
I and my friends had a great experience, we were well looked after by courteous and attentive staff despite it being an obviously busy night. The food was of good portions and very tasty, will definitely visit again
Visited this restaurant twice now and on both occasions me and my family have really enjoyed the food the service and the surroundings, even my 8 year old granddaughter loves it I would highly recommend shabab would be a great venue for big parties too
The food wasn't good, the manager wasn't interested and offered money off the bill, we told him this wasn't the issue but he wouldn't listen, we wont be returning.
Food excellent service a little slow certain staff seemed confused we ordered a bottle of wine with our meal we had to ask for it twice as it was still at the bar waiter said we wondered which table this belonged to my wife ordered a sweet from one waiter we waited for ages then another waiter came to see if she was enjoying her sweet which she did not have ,my wife ordered Banana split to which the second waiter said we don't have that so why did the first waiter take her order ?? so we did not bother ,Think certain waiters need a wake up call they were quick to bring us the BILL Though,as I said the food is fab some of the best indian food in Leeds good atmosphere we will definitely be coming back as we live in and work in Leeds.
Fantastic place to eat. Friendly efficient staff and delicious food. Best Dhal anywhere. I have been several times and it is always amazing. Good location too, right by the train station.
not been to Shabab for a few years. I was impressed, Food excellent, service very good especially as it was a busy Friday evening Will be going back
Early meal before going to the Arena for a show. Great service and food was outstanding - the only thing that stopped me giving full marks was that the place was being cleaned and staff were walking through the restaurant with bags of rubbish - not best sight during our starters. But will come back.
Very accommodating restartaurant with excellent service and good food. Menu was varied and good value for money. Would highly recommend Shabab to anyone + +
The service was very efficient without being overbearing, the food choice was extensive and all the meals we ordered were very tasty, well worth a visit.
excellent, food great menu, very attentive staff and not rushed to leave, highly recommended we had a party of 6 for a family birthday fantastic
loved all the food except for one of the main courses we had. Supposed to be a chicken sizzler dish but when it arrived not what we expected, more like a Chinese sweet and sour dish!
Very good food but a few hiccups on the service, took three attempts to get the right bottle of wine and we didn't get the naan bread asked for. Overall good though and would return
Very nice food,nice decor and reasonably priced.Would go again. Well done..
The food was really good, service was friendly and polite, one small misunderstanding on the order but it was fixed quickly, would definitely come again!
The Shabab had a good atmosphere and setting when we arrived around 9pm. The starters were fine, but but the main curry's of about half our party were pretty poor and we have eaten at a great number of restaurants over many years. In fairness to the manager he knocked one of the mains off the bill, but on balance there are better offerings elsewhere in Leeds and we are not likely to return. In addition one of our party got curry stains on their clothes from the chair they were sat on.
Excellent food and well priced. Good service throughout the meal.
Went to Shaba's yesterday after work we had a table booked for 6.30 but was seated earlier. Staff were very pleasant and the food was amazing. We all had a vindaloo so much flavour but it is very HOT!! would highly recommend and will return for another visit at some point... 10/10
Fantastic service, food & value once again. Can't wait to visit again.
Excellent food and service will recommend to friends and family.
Dark place, vile food, bad service! Nothing else to be said.
Usually my first choice but wasn't impressed with quality this time. Really busy and slow service despite on a school night
Unfortunately the service at the bar was appalling.The table service was better but dealt with several service staff rather than just the one and struggled to catch the attention of any of them, almost as if they were trying to ignore you! However , the food was good.
Great atmosphere and service, food is also good quality , been here many times and never had a bad meal
Fantastic prompt, service, atmosphere & choice/quality of food. There was a 8 of us & everyone agreed...even the vegan! Can't wait for the next visit
it was for my wife's birthday, from start to finish excellent meal, friendly service, & quality of food with a non heart stopping bill at the end of a three course meal, ltr of wine and drinks@)) we are from north Wales and we were in Leeds for just two days, but ever visiting Leeds in the future again would most definitely use this establishment and highly recommend to other , thankyou
Lovely food, brilliant service!! Would definitely recomend to anyone looking for a brilliant curry!
Shabab was very friendly with great service, Which on what I can only imagine been the busiest night (valentines) the service was second to none and all food prepared fresh to order.
it was my first visit with my family and certainly won't be the last. The service was excellent and the food was just magnificent. I shall look forward to going again.
