Mint food, would recommend to anyone, good prices and portion sizes are good, nice staff too �
Very welcoming staff and great food. Service was fast and the food was delicious, would recommend to anyone
Wonderful! Thank you not just for the food but for the lovely service and the willingness to adjust food to our taste. As an example- my Wife likes her onion bhaji with quite well cooked onions- no problem! Price-wise this was genuine value- pickles, popadums, starters, mains, parathas and a side together with drinks for less than £60.00. Thank you- we will return!
Shaheens came highly recommended by my daughter we chose this for dinner last night.
Absolutely phenomenal - the favours were intense and wonderful. So many options that make me want to come back and try more.
Service was great and would highly recommend.
Alongside several other musical friends, I hit the place for an early doors tea on Saturday before heading to the cathedral to perform some Haydn and Mozart. I scored the chicken tikka tandoori sizzler, a slab of keema naan and a bottle of health restoring Cobra beer. We all heartily agreed that the grub was top drawer. We visited on the instructions of our female colleague who'd done her online research and noticed the restaurant scored highly, and rightly so too. Service was friendly, down to earth and swift enough (the place was fairly quiet at this time) and my platter was loaded with cooked-bang-on chicken. If you seek ace curry: go to Shaheen.
Lovely meal with attentive staff. Would definitely recommend 😀👍
From the moment we arrived we were taken care of, nothing was to much trouble.
The staff had a great knowledge of the menu, and helped us with our choice...and there are many!!!
All the dishes are designed to suit everyone's palate.
And the food didn't disappoint, very tasty, large portions and reasonably priced.
We would highly recommend and on our next visit to Durham will return.
What a friendly and welcoming restaurant. Staff took a keen interest in what I liked and made excellent recommendations for my meal.

Delicious food, exactly the spice levels we asked for. Extensive menu, and 2 veggie options for each sauce (paneer or mixed veggies). The coriander rice is literally perfect.
This was our first time and it was absolutely fantastic, the food was beautiful and the staff and manger were great hosts. We have been to lots of Indian restaurants. But this is by far the best one we have been too. We are looking forward to having another great night out Durham. Many thanks to all the staff!
They were nice enough to fit us enough even though we didn't have a reservation. Compared to the Indian food we have in the US, this was leagues ahead since it wasn't just sweetness in a creamy sauce. We ordered chicken biryani and a chicken balti. Dropped a star because the food had way too much oil, especially the balti - and that's after many years of having eaten in Pakistan, where many places don't go light on oil...
