Let me start by saying that I love eating Indian food and this place is always first class for taste and quality. This is a family run restaurant and they are always friendly and welcoming. The food always arrives promptly. We like to space the different dishes out so they don't all arrive at once, which they accommodate. We have... More

The owners must be proud of having such a restaurant! Never in my life have I found a restaurant such as this. The atmosphere was delightful and service exquisite! I have been all over Victoria, half of Queensland, new south Wales and even south Australia and nothing compares to the food here! Guys, don't change a thing you are doing!... More

After a week of walking past the shah jahan indian restaurant and looking in longingly, we decided to wait until Sunday night and go for the buffet which was advertised via two large posters on the windows of the closed restaurant. "Indian Buffet - self serve , every sunday night $19.95". We fronted up and found another couple at the... More

We travel a lot and consequently eat out a lot. Wherever we go we generally try to have a good Indian Curry. The curries we had at the Shah-Jahan were superb. Service was quick and our waitron was really on the ball. Apart from making recommendations for our meal his knowledge of the wines on the restaurant's wine list was... More

We were a bit dubious eating here as there weren't any other diners when we went in, but we felt like Indian and thought, 'Let's take the chance'. By the time we left the restaurant had filled up. Glad we did take that chance! I know it's not adventurous, but the chicken korma curry was absolutely amazing, creamy, fragrant, and... More

I have been to this place many times, it has the best Indian food on the tweed coast by far. However, I have noticed the prices have gone up considerably with no effort to improve the service. It is part BYO which is great (saves money and their is a bottle shop not far down the road) but most of... More
