The food here is amazing. I live in California and I make it a point to eat here at least once while I'm in town .

Start your experience with a Mango Lassi (mango and yogurt mixture) - fabulous! The Sher-e-Punjab salad is huge and will easily serve two. Everything we have ever ordered was excellent Including: Combo Biryani, Chicken Tandoori, Lamb Curry and Fish Masala. Garlic Naan is a great accompaniment to any entree. The ambiance is very pleasing with lots of seating, and their servers do a fine job. read more

So I'll be honest. We got takeout from here primarily because it was one of the few places that were open on Thanksgiving. We actually tried to order from 2 other restaurants before hitting Thanksgiving jackpot with Sher-e! Much like any Thanksgiving meal we were quite stuffed by the time we were done and I definitely needed to nap off all those good eats. We shared the mushroom chicken, chicken biriyani, mixed vegetables and some naan. It was all very securely packaged for takeout in a mix of white paper box (Plain basmati rice) and round plastic containers for the curries and biriyani. The naan was wrapped in paper and foil. I loved the seasonings and spices in each dish. We requested it mild spice and I felt they delivered just the right amount. It was still a little spicy but just a subtle little hint of it in each entree. The white rice was soft and fluffy and while the biriyani was good flavor wise, I thought the rice was just a tad overcooked. The naan itself was a little unevenly cooked as one piece was still a little doughy in the center but had black charred bits in the thinner parts of the bread. Seems like the oven it was cooked in was too hot perhaps? Portions were plentiful and it was enough to satisfy 2 adults and one toddler with leftovers to spare. If I were craving Indian food, whether on a holiday or not, I feel like Shere-e is a solid choice. read more

This was my first time trying Indian food and it was amazing! We got the chicken tikka masala, the chef's special biryani and the garlic naan. I would come back for the naan bread alone, but the tikka masala was hands down my favorite. The service was great, all the food came out pretty quickly and the servers were friendly. The restaurant was very nice and felt clean when you walked in. read more

I love coming here when we are in Tucson. The food is amazing, service is fast and great. They expanded the restaurant several years back so it's spacious, and low noise level. Highly recommended it. read more

I have been eyeing this place for like years. More like low key stalking. I finally found the gumption to go for lunch with my husband and my word. My obsession was well worth it. First and foremost the restaurant was super clean. It had this real modern player to it, and I really appreciated the Desi hip hop. The menu was extensive. We finally settled on the Tikka masala, and an eggplant vegetarian plate as well as two samosas. This samosas came out piping hot; fried to perfection!! I straight up burnt my mouth on my first bit but I pushed through the taste was that good. The Tikka masala was rich with a really nice creamy consistency. I felt like the eggplant dish was a star of our meal. I am normally nervous to order without a main protein but I was so glad I did! It was bursting with flavor! Oh did I also mention we had a set of garlic nan? SO GOOD. We had leftovers, but we were stuffed. I ate all of it the next day. EVEN THE RICE WAS FIRE. Fluffy and delicious. I WILL BE BACK. read more

The food was pretty good, however the staff is SUPER rude. Our server who got our orders seemed annoyed to be there. We weren't even finished ordering and she was already asking for the menus. Another who gave us the food, is super quiet can't even hear what she's saying. Nonetheless, the food is NOT worth the treatment. Don't go there to dine. Order takeout if anything read more

Delicious food. We have come here two Saturdays in a row. We tried the appetizer plate last Saturday and this Saturday, we tried the Shrimp Pakora and it was great. The batter was light and yummy. Today we got the Naan, chicken mushroom and fish curry -- both medium spicy. We also got the lemonade and it was very refreshing. We might do takeout next and think the drive across town won't hurt it. read more

Nice Indian sit down restaurant. We went for dinner. Chicken tikka appetizer and chicken tikka masala were amazing. They have the softest naan. Vegetarian appetizer platter had samosa, veg pakora, paneer pakora and batata vada but noting stood out there flavor wise. Service was not friendly. read more

Ordered Takeout. Excellent food. Good flavor and balance for all the items we had. Appetizers were delicious and our food was prepared very quickly. read more

Great Indian restaurant with formal dining experience. Service can be slow but food comes out hot and delicious. Solid choice but would recommend ordering it spicy or extra hot depending on your preference. read more

At this price point you can't beat it! Sher-e-Punjab delivers in ambiance, timeliness, and excellent Indian cuisine. Wait staff was attentive and food came exactly as I ordered. Bathroom situation is not completely flawless. read more

First time dining here. The interior is fairly nice and the waitstaff was nice. I got the lamb tikka masala and I enjoyed it. Portion size for the price was not bad. I personally wish they gave a little bit more rice but no big deal just made some extra what I got home. The lamb was quite tender and the flavor overall was pretty good. Was pretty pleased with the quality and flavor that I received here. Wasn't sure what the Indian food would be like in Tucson but was pleasantly surprised. I would come back! read more

Worst service I've ever experienced. Moment we walked in the door the host body scanned us. Sit down at the table minutes later a server comes up and says "what do you guys want". No hello no greetings no nothing. Mind as well just get robots if your servers can't even make u feel welcomed. A robot would do better. Every time something was dropped off at the table we said thank you and not once did we get a response. If you hate your job just say that. As we left the host just nodded his head insinuating a goodbye. Will never be going back read more

I took my 15 yr old daughter here for the first time in years. it used to be her favorite restaurant.the food was as good as we remembered. unfortunately the server was very unpleasant. at first we thought maybe she was having a bad day, but we soon realized that she was very pleasant to the white couples at the tables around us, and consistently, and only, dismissively rude to us, specifically to my daughter who is darker skinned than I am. once we realized this she was heartbroken while I was angry. she smiled as nice and sweetly as she could while we were there but once we left she burst into tears. I wonder what damage the world has to do do a young brown skinned woman that she has to take it out on a younger, slightly browner skinned woman. read more

The best Indian food I've ever tasted. Trust me, I'm Indian and I've gone to India. This is basically IT. The Chicken Tilkka Masala and the Keema Samosa are SO GOOD. This place got me to try Gulab Jamun and I will forever love it. The most GOATED spot and the ambiance is amazing and they served us well. I will forever love this place in my heart. read more

This place started out as a very small restaurant and expanded as neighboring storefronts were available. We had no problem getting 6 of us in on a Saturday night. The food was delicious and spiced as requested. I opted for a mild tikka masala which was perfect while others ordered a medium vegetarian dish which was also quite good. Service was good. It still is my favorite Indian restaurant in Tucson. read more

This our go to place! Have tried others, like the Twists.They are really good also, but not quite like Sher-e-Punjab. Service is excellent and anything you order is great. Sometimes I just can't make up my mind. read more

Rude staff. Cold, dried out, tasteless naan bread. I got severe stomache issues after eating only a small amount of the substandard food. Spicy Indian cuisine is one of my favorites so I was sadly disappointed with every aspect of my first and final dine-in experience at Sher-e-Punjab. read more

Have heard about this place from multiple people as a place with delicious, authentic Indian food. It's been described as when you pull out all stops for the dish, including putting a good amount of butter in instead of trying to cut it back during daily home cooked meals. So, I knew I had to try it. I gotake out from here, and was not disappointed. My go-to's include chicken tikka masala and butter chicken, both of which they did quite well. I would not eat this everyday, but it was definitely a great option when I was looking for something rich and filling. read more

SherA-e-Punjab is at the top of Indian Restaurants in Tucson. I recently had their catered dinner. It was fabulous. Loved the vegetarian offerings so much that I went to dinner at the restaurant two nights ago. I had the very flavorful Mango Talli drink. Mmm! Ordered Chicken Tikka Masala and finished the whole dish with rice in one sitting. Best ever. Garlic Naan disappeared fast too. The servers were right on it with such pleasing smiles and service. I will return very soon!! read more

Ordered delivery from Sher-e-Punjab today for lunch. Everything was packaged nicely and in an great reusable shopping bag. The chicken tikka masala was delicious. The serving are plentiful so I have leftovers for my lunch tomorrow. Will definitely order from here again. Maybe next time I'll go in person. read more

Since moving to AZ, I've been on the hunt for a favorite Indian restaurant. This restaurant came with some decent reviews, so i just had to try. Restaurant is rather large and clean looking. Staff was friendly. We ordered chicken tikka masala with medium heat. It was pretty spicy & I'm a girl who loves alot of spice & heat! Beware if you are sensitive to heat. You'd want to order carefully, as i found their medium to be very spicy! Also ordered raita, aloo goobi, palak paneer, naan, & a mango lassi. The palak paneer was just ok. The spinach didn't taste quite right to me. It almost had an old bitter taste. Nothing horrible, but i would not order it again. Aloo goobi was good, naan was very good, and my mango lassi was average, too. Overall, it was a average-good meal. For now, I'll continue my hunt for Tucson's best Indian. read more

A much improved restaurant over the past ten years. I remember their restaurant as a small place many years ago and the food was very good. Now in their expanded location, the food quality has improved to great. Their Pulak Chana was the best I've had anywhere. The Pulak Chicken was excellent. The Lamb Tikka Masala was top class. Best Indian food in Tucson. The service was prompt and helpful. read more

Good food , service could be improved but overall good experience. Food had lot of flavors read more

The family meal here is such a good value and the food is so good! For just $60, it comes with so many dishes and sauces that can feed more than 4 people easily. It came with veggie samosa, chicken tandoori, lamb Korma, chicken tikka masala, briyani, raita yogurt, and naan. With $4 extra, you can swap out the regular naan for garlic naan!! The tandoori chicken was really tender and flavorful. The two curries were perfectly spiced with good taste. I really liked the raita yogurt with the green sauced mixed together and dipped with the warm samosas. The briyani was sort of bland but good with the curries. The mango lassi had such good texture, it was tart but not too sour, the yogurt and mango taste was really good mixed together. The dining room is humungous they were able to seat us immediately around 6 and soon after the dinner crowd came rushing in. The service was very attentive and friendly. Highly recommend for great food, good prices, and awesome service. read more

Our new goto Indian food place in Tucson. We always order the Malai Kafta, spicy, and then pick another vegetarian dish to try. Everything is super tasty and pleasantly spicy if you ask. This time we ordered the sampler appetizer platter and they were all awesome. read more

The guy at the register couldn't care less. We asked him for recommendations and he's like, I have never had them so I can't tell you what to get. Flabbergasted! How have you not had the food you were serving. He couldn't even tell us what was popular. So we picked a chicken tikka masala, I mean how can you go wrong with that, yeah? Super bland. Naan was good. We took it to go. Inside seemed nice! read more

The Bengan Bharta was smoky, which is an interesting variation on this dish. It was the best of the three we ordered. The vegetable korma was ok, but we've had versions of this dish elsewhere in town that we liked much better. Karahi paneer was somewhat bland and uninteresting, unfortunately. The rice was fairly plain (some places add cumin, etc which I love), and the garlic naan was fine. Altogether we were disappointed by the meal of vegetarian dishes we tried. read more

Gahhhdamn this place is bussin. I've been coming here since I was 8 years old and it's still pretty much the same flavors. The food is fire, but also would recommend being careful of which spice level you order or you will be on fire. I do think the dal could be more flavorful, but it's still good. The service and ambiance are great! As someone who has had tried multiple Indian food places, this will forever hold a special place in my heart read more

Wow! What a hidden treat! I have never been to this restaurant but it has been in business since 1998. They recently went under major renovations and its super hip with great ambiance. The food and service was excellent. I had Chicken Tikka Massala and was super flavorful. The best part was how affordable the food is! A must for some good Indian food. read more

*Take out review only* I have both picked up and used a 3rd party delivery service to have food from Shar-e-Punjab. They have always had the food ready on time, so it is hot and fresh. Though they also do a great job of packaging the food to ensure that it gets to your house in tact, and at temperature. As for the food itself. It is very tasty. Not the top Indian food restaurant in town in my opinion but a good choice nonetheless. They are a little bit pricy in my opinion but not high enough to prompt me to find somewhere else to order from. TL:DR - A good Indian food option albeit a little bit pricy read more

we haven't been back here in years, but it was just as good as we remember back in the day. We ordered the cheese naan, paneer bhujri, chicken tikka masala, and the veggie samosas. there are four levels of spiciness: mild, medium, spicy, extra spicy. We selected spicy for both the entrées; however, both were not very spicy at all, we would say it fell closer to a mild spice level. regardless, the food was delichus. it's definitely a must try if visiting tucson. it's a hidden gem. read more

Good Indian food with a variety of drink selection. Ambiance - Lots of seating, spacious, has a bar and buffet area for the lunch buffets. There were also a couple of large tvs/projectors playing various sports. My husband was very entertained by the one playing cricket. Service - Was a bit slow at times, but they were pretty packed and had a lot of to-go orders. The menu was in a hardcover book format which was super cool to see. Food - § Garlic Naan was flavorful and crispy, just how it should be! § Sher-E-Punjab Sampler came with a Samosa, 3 Batata Vada, 2 Finger Paneer, and 2 Veggie Pakora. Everything was fantastic at a very reasonable price especially since the sampler was shared between my husband and I. § Lamb Tikka Masala was delicious! The lamb meat was nice and tender and the tikka masala was very flavorful. It paired very well with the garlic naan. Overall, great Indian food at a decent price. Would return! Had some cool Indian beers too which I'd love to try next time! read more

Great Indian food but it's better to get it in the restaurant, as Grub hub is unreliable in my experience. They left my order outside and didn't contact me via text or email or phone. As result my food was cold. Sorry I tipped them 20%. read more
