joeyliz Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 Shapla is amazing, food is great and the staff are lovely. There is a relatively new one in woodseats too but I can't think of the name, its in the place that used to be the woodseats pub - tasty food and lovely decor too.

MyLittlePony Posted August 14, 2011 Share Posted August 14, 2011 Shimul at Meadowhead is suprisingly good, would definitely recommend if you live nearby and don't want to travel into town. Excellent quality pickle tray and really nice mains at reasonable price with friendly staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerbyTup Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 MANGLA...always quality, 2 asian doctors from my local GP practice eat there so that is unsheikhable testimony (guess the doctor;)) Koh-I-Noor (Handsworth) - Rashid and his team offer warm welcome and several pubs near the restaurant SHAPLA - Btm of Moor - fantastic pickle tray BUTLER's BALTI - Understand they just opening up in new premises just up from West Bar, across from Fagins pub "Unsheikable testimony" - so your Asian docs are not Arabs then? Look mate, it's like this... Just because an Indian person chooses to eat in an Indian restaurant does NOT mean that it is a good restaurant. It's a bit like saying... "I went into an English restaurant last night and it was full of English people so it must be good". We hear this kind of thing a lot when folks are looking to justify Chinese and Indian places and it's just not any evidence at all. What I would say is that, your Asian docs, are probably well placed to have an opinion because they have no doubt tried most if not all of the places in town at someone else's expense. The Mangla up Spital hill is definitely one that the Asian docs rate very highly. It's cheap and basic but the food is good. Having said that - it's not one of my favourite places. I don't like the area - it feels very unsafe - and I don't feel it's much of a night out to go there. The food is good, but it's not that special that I want to sacrifice my personal safety for it, or sit around in a place that is like a big busman's cafe. I'd rather pay more and go somewhere nicer. In my opinion Akbar's is the best Indian food in Sheffield. (I base that on having taken Asian docs to restaurants for the last 20 years or so. So, it's unshakeable! ) Except Akbars isn't in Sheffield - it's in no mans land between Meadowhall and Rotherham. And it's like going in a dungeon - so dim in there. Around the city centre I used to like Aagrah - especially for the fresh fish. But haven't been recently so don't know if it's still good. Many years ago Nirmal's was the best authentic Indian food in town - I see that place is still going but I lost interest in it because I couldn't stand her constant interference. I tried Nawaab and though it was rubbish. Then there's about another 12 or so that I've tried and they've all been pretty ordinary. Butlers and 7 spices probably the best of that bunch. TBH - there's a very good Indian takeaway within a few miles of where I live and although they don't do fish (which is a favourite for me and rarely found in Indian restaurants) their food is as good or better than most restaurants I've tried. That's Takdir at Parkhead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafah786 Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 new place called Anwars on dixon lane, sit in or take away, proper authentic food, its next to wilkinsons in town just up from the castle market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slack---line Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 Safforn Club is a good bet, the Rajput in Crookesmoor is nice too. Indian Chef in Crookes is always a good bet. Takeaway wise Mehran and Tanzella's (their 2 for 1 main courses on collection is a winner!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maltbyminer Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 You are all missing the best indian by far with the best atmosphere, food, music, service, cleanliness and all at reasonable prices, but you will have to book well in advance if you want to eat there at the weekend. Where is this place ? The Mogul Room on Sharrowvale Rd. Another plus point is that there are plenty of really good pubs nearby. This is food cooked fresh to your liking, try to ask for ingredients to be excluded or milder elsewhere that way you will know if its been prepared earlier and then frozen....
