Shukran Indian - Whitley Bay

We have been coming here since 2015 before we have been to the Himalaya (0wned by the same family) since 2007. Faz and his dad are very welcoming, accommodating and provide excellent service. Food is always piping hot and excellent and fantastic value, especially on Thursdays and Sundays. Me and my friend would not go anywhere else. A favourite at the moment is a lamb imli, a medium curry made with tamarind sauce. Delicious. We have Not had a bad dish on the menu.

Absolutely terrible! Ordered online and was swayed by Google reviews but was incredulous when we plated up. We ordered a chicken dupiaza which turned out to be chunks of raw onion in a watery tasteless yellow sauce (no heat/spice/flavour). Hard/rubbery/tasteless chicken which appeared pre cooked and added. Rice was ok but again, pre cooked/reheated. Keema naan had kebab meat in in it!!! More uncooked onion formed into 2 greasy bhaji.... We were only a 10minute drive away and it was cold by the time we got back. With over 40yrs of experience and visiting numerous indian cuisine restaurant around the world, I return to the UK to experience the worst curry ever. I claim to be able to eat anything (edible) but really struggled with this curry congratulations for procuring my hard earned cash but I won 't be wasting my money at Shukran again.... Forewarned is forearmed.

Great tasting currie lovely hot plates and curries were piping hot. Would recommend a visit !! Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: £30–40 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Eating is unbelievable and the portion sizes are huge and can complain about the price, at all that it is very reasonable. I never had a bad meal eating in or taking away it was always excellent. do not let them see from the few tables they see on the entry, there are more tables around the corner id very recommended a visit

100% the nicest Indian food I've had, really recommend the place. I had the Afghani Style with lamb and was genuinely impressed. Every person in our party loved the food.
