Visited on September 25, 2026 Service: Servers were friendly and helped choose what to order. Recommended others items to try the next time visiting. Ambiance: Standard dining area - nothing out of the ordinary. Food: The Butter Chicken is smooth and creamy. Not too spicy and rich in flavor. Served with white rice that pairs well with the creamy sauce. The Chicken Biriyani was strong with cumin and turmeric. It is a little spicy, but not overbearing. The garlic cheese naan was tasty by itself and even better dipped in the butter chicken sauce. read more

Amazing authentic Pakistani food! Great flavor without overdoing on spiciness. Service was fantastic and menu has tons of options at unbeatable prices. Feels like you are getting a home cooked meal, food is not overly oily/heavy but you still get that burst of flavor. Ambiance inside was also very nice compared to other south asian spots I've been too especially the sunroom with tons of natural light. I highly recommend the dum beef but I need to go back and try all their chaats/appetizers too. Can't go wrong with anything on the menu read more

Hands down the most delicious butter chicken and naan I have ever had! I tried the plain naan and it was so good, I can't imagine how perfect the other variations must be!!!

Sheesh Mahal - Butter chicke & plain naan - Indian Near Me - Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

Very great Indian cuisine, nice flavorful curries, naan (including cheese naan), rice dishes, kabobs, lassis of the mango variety, and other beverages like iced chai tea and a purple/red colored lemonade which is delicious. Reasonable prices, excellent and attentive service and a cool interior atmosphere with plenty of tables/seats, stylish art and posters on the wall and digital displays that rotate their menu selections. Highly recommended! read more

Sheesh Mahal - Indian Near Me - Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

Got some dishes to try for the weekend! Been seeing this on Doordash for awhile so we finally bit the bullet and got some. Biggest pro to Sheesh Mahal is the price point. Everything there is pretty affordable and the portions are decent too. We got the butter chicken, tikka masala, spiced rice, chicken paratha, and beef samosa. Off the bat, the paratha and the beef samosa were a little bit on the drier end. The curries were decent though! I think the butter chicken was the better curry out of the two. Tikka masala could do with a little bit more flavor. Spiced rice tasted great with the curries. It's a good place if you're looking for a decent meal at a good price point! read more

Super Good! I'd love to see their take on mango chicken. Got it to go and they finished my order super quickly! I was only inside to grab my food but the staff was very friendly! read more

Sheesh Mahal - Indian Near Me - Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

In a search for good Indian food this place showed up as number one. Upon arrival we noticed that this place was not Indian. It was Pakistani. 1) Place was clean and welcoming. 2) Service was quick. This is more of a quick food spot. 3) The food was delicious. Ordered several dishes and all were excellent! Great sauces. The meat in the dishes was soft ans delicious. The vegetable dishes were also excellent. I recommend you give them try. Great food and delicious dishes! read more

Enjoyable food, although I didn't personally love the Daal that I had, mostly due to how small it felt. The naan was amazing and the rest of the party liked their food too. The service was pretty quick, although there weren't a ton of water refills due to the opaque water cups. The room's atmosphere was pretty nice, being given tea and honey as we walked in, and it greatly benefited from a giant seeeeesh sign inside. read more

Everything was very flavorful. Hearty portions for a reasonable price. I rarely eat Indian food and even more rarely eat at the same place twice, but I will be back. Samosa and tikka masal were very tasty and flavorful. Gol gappay was interesting - glad I tried it. Cold appetizer of crispy fried vessels with sauce and chickpeas inside. Service and restaurant hit the vibe perfectly. Definitely not an upscale place but a spectacular restaurant nonetheless read more

I am not understanding the reviews saying there is no flavor in the food because my order was PHENOMENAL. There is truly a sense of adventure when trying new Indian dishes. I took that leap of faith tonight and tried the Tawa chicken for the first time. Found the dish to be rich and aromatic, thanks to the combination of spices, garlic, pepper & concentrated tomato with large pieces of onion and bell pepper. Additionally, I tried the Aloo Palak - means potato in a spinach sauce. It has a lovely savory completion and pairs well with the Tawa chicken. I decided to skip the rice and order the garlic naan, which came with a small side of mint chutney. Slightly sweet with a refreshingly floral mint. I chose to order takeout and have never dined in before. The order arrived quickly and was still hot. 12/10 on flavorful boldness & quality ingredients! Will recommend to anyone to give this place a try!! read more

Small portions and very watery malai kofta...with barely any kofta in it. The fact that they didn't give you an option to change the spice level should have been a red flag that this would be low quality food. read more

Great food, great staff, lots of seating, great prices. We keep coming back for more!

I keep giving this place a chance. It's mediocre. Not sure why their food is so much better at catered events. My go to dishes (hard to mess up) -Seekh kabab w naan and Raita. No flavor in the meat and the Raita (sauce) was too watery. I can't stand this place sorry. read more

Walked in hungry, came out full The food was amazing. I tried the Butter chicken, chicken tikka masala, and green butter chicken. I also tried the spicy rice, the chicken rice, and the goat curry. The service was very quick, even when the restaurant was full. The staff were attentive and friendly. The ambiance was friendly! I will return! If I could give this 10 stars I would! read more

I absolutely love this place! I always get the chicken biryani and it's consistently the best I've had in Oklahoma. The portion sizes are incredible for the price. They're so fast and everyone I've interacted with has been really kind. Can't recommend enough! :) read more

Sheesh is some of my favorite food in all of OKC. Everyone is always so friendly and just walking in the door I start salivating. Please do yourself a favor and get both the Butter Chicken AND two deals of Garlic Naan. You will be the happiest person around. read more

Sheesh mahal is a great stop for a meal. It's a decent sized dinning area that is suitable for groups and they have a pretty nice sized menu to cater to different tastes between bbq and grilled dishes to the traditional gravy based ones. For myself visiting from DFW, the prices seemed more than reasonable. The staff here is really nice and service is attentive. The complimentary green tea was a nice touch. The food was pretty good. Coming out hot and fresh. Our group felt the mix chaat could use a touch more tamarind and the biryani could be a bit less spicier. The shami kabobs, chicken and beef were fantastic and the beef seekh kabobs were great. We enjoyed everything and would be happy to return. read more

My search for authentic Indian and Pakistani food has came to an end with Sheesh Mahal. Not only is the food authentic but it's also the best of its kind. No other Indian and Pakistani restaurants come close to the quality of Sheesh Mahal's. Sheesh Mahal is a little Indian and Pakistani restaurant located on North May in OKC. The facility is spotless clean and the service is as equally awesome. Best of all, the food is incomparable. Everything I've tried at the restaurant are delicious from the beef samosa to the chili naan and the butter chicken. I can conclude at this point, you won't be able to find another restaurant with better naan bread than at Sheesh Mahal. There are so many varieties to choose from making your options endless. The same could be said about the rice as well. The butter chicken is one of the most delicious and creamy dish I have tried. The best part is the chicken, it just melts in your mouth. It's buttery smooth and goes great with the naan bread. I am so impressed with Sheesh Mahal that I've ordered the chicken tikka masala with masala rice to go. The other impressive highlight about Sheesh Mahal is the cost of the food is very fair. I cannot wait to try the chicken tikka masala. Based on everything so far, I have no doubt that it would be equally delicious. read more

Not on my typical places to dine but I was taking a coworker out to lunch and this was his choice. Interesting! I met him there and he ordered the Naan Cheese Raisin - I was pleasantly surprised! Scanning the menu I was somewhat lost as to what to select. I choose the Beef & Lamb Kabobs, Spicy Rice and Garlic Naan. Flavors were really remarkable. The service was fantastic and were always checking in to see if everything was good. I must admit I have to expand my horizons further to try more of the menu. I noticed several options I wanted to try so that definitely awaits. The pricing was very reasonable and the restaurant was clean and welcoming. read more

First time trying Indian food and I loved it! Really liked that you could choose the spice level as well!

I've been to Sheesh Mahal four times, always with friends who enjoy it, so I really tried to give it a fair shot. Unfortunately, it's just not for me. The rice always tastes dry and stale, and the curry meats are bland no matter the spice level. One thing I don't like is that rice isn't included with the curry -- you have to buy it separately, and it only comes in a large portion. It would be much better if a small, single-serving portion came with the curry by default. For the price, it feels overpriced. The naan is probably the best part -- it seems fresh, but the flavor is underwhelming. I can see why some people might enjoy it since the options use simple, familiar ingredients like Nutella, garlic, or cheese -- flavors that sound good with bread, but in reality, it's just mid. On a positive note, the staff have always been nice and the atmosphere is pleasant. But overall, the food just doesn't live up to expectations. If you're new to Indian or Pakistani food, this might seem okay, but for me, the flavors just aren't there. After four visits, I'm done. Hopefully they improve, but I won't be going back. read more

I love coming to Sheesh Mahal. They have the best menu and prices! The service is unmatched. The owner is so very kind. I suggest going in a group and ordering a bunch of different things to share so you could try everything! I've tried most of the dishes and there isn't anything I don't like about them. You can adjust the spiciness of the food. I love that if you bring kids they give the kids little juice boxes. Big groups are great. They are always busy but the food is always fresh and perfect. I highly recommend Sheesh Mahal! read more

Sheesh Mahal - Indian Near Me - Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

I ordered take out and it was delicious! Actually better the next day!! The flavors married in the sauces and wow! The building and inside is nothing to look at so don't let that deter you. The employees are genuine, warm and friendly. I ordered gol gappay, saimosa, beef shami, paneer pakora, spicy rice, palak gosht, garlic naan and raita. All of that food for about $40! Very fair prices. The gol pappay where perfectly crunchy and seasoned nicely. I enjoyed the sauces (turmeric, cilantro and yogurt). They are even better the second day! I ordered the palak gosht spicy and I wish it was spicier but the spice does build after awhile so overall I was happy with the spice level. The goat itself was delicious. Very tender and juicy. I enjoyed this with the spicy rice. To me the naan was just ok. I found it too soggy. Maybe this is just a to go situation. It also wasn't as flavorful as I expected. I think the oil for the paneer pakora was a little bit hot as these were very dark and had a slightly bitter taste. Don't forget the raita! It's so yummy to add to anything spicy and cool your mouth so you can keep enjoying your food! I would order here again and try more food as I did overall enjoy everything even with a few missteps. I will come back! read more

Do not underestimate this restaurant from the outside because it packs some real flavor! There is plenty to choose from off their menu no matter what your diet is.

We have been going here for years. They have gradually done a renovation on the interior and exterior. The food is always amazing. Chicken masala and green rice is my favorite. The butter chicken and spicy rice is also very good. read more

This little place is definitely worth the find. Parking is easy and service is friendly and quite fast even though they are very busy with both walk-ins and take outs. We were craving Indian fare and this Pakistan menu suited us fine The two of us shared a Chicken Tikka Masala, Paleek Paneer (to get those veggies in), and a Mixed Dahl (love those lentils). We also had the spicy rice and of course some garlic naan. The meal is served with some nice hot tea Everything was so delicious and well prepared. We ordered medium spice and it was perfect for us. The while meal was under $40 for the two of us. Such a deal! read more

Let's just start with incredible! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! My boyfriend and I left on another Oklahoma food adventure. This one didn't disappoint! The food was incredible. When we came in, they let us sit at any single table. We were quickly waited on bringing us menus, water, and hot tea, their own blend. It was so different and savory there are no words.We both had seconds. I ordered the Green Marsala Butter Chicken and the spicy rice. My bf ordered the Goat Biryani'. He said they were both out of this world delicious. Unfortunately, I forgot to tell them about my jalapeño allergy and couldn't try either. Here's what impressed me the most. They took back the spicy rice, we kept my original dish, and they let me order the butter chicken (I had them add medium spice) and the white rice with cilantro. It was so yummy! The portions were quite large and we took a lot home to freeze for lunches. For dessert, we shared the Gulab Jamun. They are like honey soaked cake donut holes, sitting in a syrup. WOW! To sweet to have more than one, but again Wow! We're saving the other two for dessert later. I have never had waiters be more respectful and accommodating because of my food allergies. Actually 2-3 came out of the back to make sure I got food I could eat and to accommodate us. Unbelievably friendly and courteous staff on top of insanely delectable food exceeded our expectations. Highly recommend! read more

Let's do Sheesh Mahal again! No higher praise can be given than having a place coming to mind over and over again when you are trying to decide where to go for lunch. Note that I am reviewing the food here. Sheesh Mahal is a low cost spot to get really great food. It is not "fine dining" with white table cloths, 18/10 flatware, etc. It is my go to location for amazing flavor and some of the best naan I have ever had. The food is incredible. I need to use the QR code to access the phone based menus. The single page laminated menu doesn't give me enough detail to know what I am ordering, but the digital menu is very helpful. You are served hot tea and water upon arrival. The food comes out quickly and is always hot and spiced to spec. The people are very friendly and helpful if you are not sure what to try on a first visit. Go and try it. Know that you will be eating with plastic ware and foam plates, but the food you will be having is some of the best in the central plains! read more

Sheesh Mahal - Samosa Chaat - Indian Near Me - Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

Unassuming and humble are good words to describe the exterior of this tiny restaurant. The interior is warm and comfortable, and the food is amazing. My cousin and I ordered butter chicken, mixed dal, a side of fragrant basmati and a side of fresh, chewy naan for lunch. There was so much leftover, she took it home to share with her husband for dinner. The mildly-spiced, creamy butter chicken was definitely the star of the meal. The mixed dal was also good, but I asked for mild, and the spice level was at least medium. Be very specific about your spice needs! The service was friendly and efficient, and they serve hot tea with all meals. The prices were terrific, too, especially for everything we got. If I lived in Oklahoma City, I think I'd be there every week! read more

Overall pretty good The service was excellent and the food came quickly. All dishes were enjoyable (but be forewarned: the food IS very well seasoned and some dishes can be a bit spicy so watch out if going w/ kids). Also the MANGO LASSI is the best I've ever had and both the garlic and cheese naans are excellent. Definitely a spot worth checking out if you are seeking some delicious Indian food! read more
