Important to note, we did privately reach out to the restaurant to give them the opportunity to respond and the Restaurant Manager gave a very nice, apologetic response and offered to credit our meal back. When we did not receive the credit, we politely followed up (over the last two months) and they have not responded further.

It is completely possible to grab a couple curries for a large meal and keep it under 20 quid, but that's not what my group did. We ordered five fabulous dishes and feasted.

To my knowledge, there are actually three Shahanshah's in Southall/Ealing, but this one specialises in vegetarian cuisine and sweets. It's also the closest to the Mrs's. You can't get home delivery, you have to rock up in person. It also closes at 8pm. It's also always busy, queues and queues of locals all lining up just before closing wanting their food. But, it is truly the most amazing food. Simple, fresh, moreish food all at really reasonable/cheap prices. 40p a Samosa. I've never been disappointing, and we've had a fair few meals from here. Nothing's ever come out greasy or cold or stodgy or limp. Well, with the invention of JustEat and all those convinience sites to make the process of getting your regular Indian to your door without any delay or hassle, why leave the house and make the journey? Because, to paraphrase a well known female product ad.... It's worth it.

Sorry this keyboard does not have the POUND SIGN. For old times three of us ate here and had samosas and Aloo Chaat with two of us having Desi Chai (Chai Tea Latte) and me a can of Rubicon soft drink and all under a tenner! The Rubicon is still selling strong in this fine establishment. The samosas are freshley prepared in the back. It is rude when old school friends get together and not over order! We had to have the Obligatory extra chutney. You cannot go wrong. Decor is basic. The amazing aromas of indian sweets (Muthai) and the other currys do not disappoint. All the food here is vegetarian. Samosas and Muthai have been going strong here for over 20 years. They make all the Indian Punjabi comfort food and makes you feel good after eating. However not great for the waistline. You know this place is great when all the locals are still coming here and ordering by the Bucket load. Highly recommended experience and good vegetarian Punjabi food.

**June 2022: Saturday Dinner**…read more I landed in London in the afternoon and basically slept through half the day. When 9pm rolled around I figured I probably should eat something, but I wanted to try something local, so I walked about a mile away from my hotel and after a couple of no go options I landed on Zayani Indian. The restaurant had abundant traditional options, so I decided on one of my all time favorites: Chicken Tiki Marsala and Garlic Naan. The entree was exactly how I like my Marsala, creamy, somewhat sweet and savory and the chicken is soft and tender. The naan was the perfect vehicle to dip in the marsala. The marsala dish was a tad smaller than what I'm use to in the states as I usually have leftovers, but it was enough to fill my belly for a dine-in experience. Additionally the price seemed pretty reasonable for a white-table cloth dinner and they open late. I would come back!

Crispy butter-ey bun with a well seasoned filling topped with a lovely chutney. One of the best vada pavs I've had. I would admit that I am a chilli paneer snob, and this chilli paneer is one I would definitely go back for. A little on the spicy side, but it does have the word "chilli" in the name. I would've liked the paneer cubes to be cut into smaller pieces. The one thing I wasn't impressed with the meal was the butter chicken. I found that the portion was way too small for as a main dish. The flavour was okayish. The garlic and chilli naan was good, a little on the crispy side. The chai is spicy and warm, in a good way. The service: Unfortunately, the service is what lets this place down. The staff are not welcoming or attentive, but I guess I am used to this kind of service in Southall. However, there is one gentleman here who was great, I believe he is one of the owners. He was personable and humorous. I would've knocked two stars off if it wasn't for this guy. The place: The restaurant has definitely been renovated since the last Yelp photos that have been posted! The wall decor is cool and modern. Tables and cutlery seemed clean, especially for Southall standards. Will be returning when I'm feeling peckish after a Southall shopping spree!

Moti had some guys out front cooking up fried items, but it did seem they had a decent indoor area as well, and I felt like having a sit-down lunch. Inside, there's a giant counter filled with Indian sweets, and a dining area with seating for 30+ (and I would find out - an additional upstairs area with even more seats). The scene is very casual... no tablecloths nor ornate settings. I walked up to the counter and ordered. The owner(?) was super friendly and jovial, proclaiming the authenticity of his Punjab food. I knew exactly what I wanted, chicken curry (6.50), and was invited to sit. I did look over the rest of the menu and it was giant... everything from 3.00 tikka rolls to about 100 other dishes, with only a few over 10.00. There was a constant stream of locals, mostly families, enjoying the fare. My curry arrived and it was a nice sized portion and bursting with flavor. Not greasy and not thin. In fact, the sauce was hearty and the chicken nicely cooked. It also was hotly spiced, but not overwhelming. Thankfully they had delivered a pitcher of water to help wash things down. That reminds me... I don't think they sell booze and don't know their policy about BYO. Overall, even though it's a no-frills place, I liked the staff and the food. It's not a place for a formal/special meal, but it works just fine if you want some good Indian grub nicely priced.
