What Cray G likes about Shalimar Indian:
Normally I can't stand Indian food, over powering nasty stuff! But I was pleasantly surprised with the food I had at this venue. My friend purchased the Groupon for 6 people, and ordered kids meals also. All the meat/vegetable dishes were tasty and fresh. The sauces were very pleasant. The rice was fluffy and big servings. Loved my meal and has given me hope of eating Indian again. Highly recommend giving this place... View all feedback.
