Shahi Indian Restaurant

This is an absolute jewel in Lanzarote, right near the apartments we are staying. From early afternoon the aroma of the spices, make you salivate. We have been here twice in the week so far. First time we walked in and seated at table second time made reservation. I want to say that all of the staff are friendly, genuine and provide a top class service. Supportive of ensuring we were provided with gluten free options for my husband. Food: Traditional, authentic, fresh made food to order. We tried a variety of starters and main courses. All were individually spiced, we were asked what level of heat we would prefer. All food had fresh ingredients, served piping hot from kitchen to table. Mixed tandoori starters Onion bhaji Lamb Madras Chicken kharai Chicken jalfrezi Pilau rice with crispy onions. Price is very reasonable for what you get in tems of quality and quantity of food. I would rate the food as excellent🌟 Drinks: Waiters gave an excellent reccommendation for the red wine we had with our meal. Gluten free option was Magners or Strongbow cider. Gluten free beer or lager would be a nice option, however, not a necessity. I would rate this as excellent also, good variety of drinks on the whole and staff know their stuff in relation to local wines. Atmosphere: first night we visited was a Friday night. It was busy but still accommodated for us walk in. Really nice ambiance and vie of the sea whilst eating. Second night we had pre booked, it was live music night. Manuel sang the old hits of Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin. Very entertaining, not too loud just the right level of sound. Was fantastic. Parking: lots of on street free parking just outside the restaurant. Definatley worth a try if you are in the area and wanting an authentic indian meal, good service and atmosphere. I will be back next year. Thank you to all the Shahi staff.
