Service was exceptionally attentive and the restaurant size makes you feel more like visiting friends than being a patron. Easy to enjoy your meal alone, or engage your neighbor dinner next to you. Which we did and they shared birthday cake with us. Can't beat that! Highly recommend!

It is still at the top of my list of favorite Indian restaurants!!! This is the best Indian restaurant in England, and my all-time favorite Indian place in the world. When you're in London, you'll definitely visit Harrod's or the Victoria & Albert Museum, and when you do, you'll be starving afterward. So head on over to Shaheen and let them totally spoil you for any other Indian food! My friend Damien recommended this place, and we visited on our first day in London, then re-visited several times during our first stay there. Now, every time I'm in London, I go, just to reconfirm the total deliciousness of their food. It truly is memorable. (Thanks for the recommendation, Damien!) The service is gracious. The interior is romantic and very Indian. Prices are fair. I always compare Indian food by how the Chicken Tikka Masala rates -- it seems like a good common denominator that is on almost every Indian menu. Shaheen's outshines every other restaurant I've sampled. You can't go wrong with their other menu items -- we've tried almost everything. Also, note that when you specify "Hot" that's what you'll get -- expect the steam to come out of your ears! P.S. Check the website for map and directions. The phone number is: +44 (0) 20 7581 5329.

Bottom line: Not worth the money for mediocre food and poor service…read more Food: 2/5 Environment: 3/5 Service: 2/5 Value: 1/5 I had the Chicken Biryani and the Chicken Tikka Marsala. The Biryani rice was soggy and the chicken tasted old. It also took 45min to get. After the long wait, the order we finally received was wrong. Turns out I was not the only one bothered by the extremely poor service-- two other table also complained. The restraint only had three tables full to begin with... There is much better tasting Indian food in London at a way better price. This place had high reviews-- maybe a management or chef change? Regardless-- it's Not recommended.

Upon arrival we found a lovely location right next to the Thames in the southern part of Chelsea. The decor was modern and comfortable, and the vibe was very casual. We got seated promptly and service was quick. After an appetizer of poppadums and various sauces, we got the prawn curry and mixed game skewers with mushroom curry. The shrimp was fair, but not amazing. As for the second entree, the meat served on the skewers (rabbit, venison, quail and pheasant) was not grilled as advertised; it came out as lukewarm, nondescript stewed bits on toothpick thin sticks. Stew on a stick? What a crappy idea. The meat was served on top of a roti that was soggy and soft. Very unappealing. The mushroom curry was nice enough, but not a saving grace for the meal. Based on what we were served, the chef seemed more concerned with adding exotic ingredients on the menu rather than creating a tasty meal. The food we were served was not as cohesive or enjoyable as it should have been, especially for a place with this good a reputation. In the end, we left quite unsatisfied. Disappointing experience over all. Not even close to being worth the 15-20 pounds an entree they charge.
