My husband and I ate here and really enjoyed our vegetarian curries. Beautiful spices and heaps of options for vegetarians and a couple of vegan options, as well as plenty for the meat eaters. Definitely going back!

Not much open so ended up here. From the very friendly and hard working staff to the tasty tikka Marsala, they do an outstanding job. It was a great find.

So I found this restaurant in Reykjavík and couldn’t believe that there’s a Pakistani restaurant here. I went here and order chicken karhai dish with delicious naan bread and lamb biryani dish (for take out) also had tea. The place and food was amazing with great portions that I couldn’t finish. They have an extensive menu of dishes. It was surprisingly to find a great quality south Asian Pakistani restaurant, The staff is professional, friendly and outstanding. I would strongly recommend checking this restaurant out and enjoy!!!

After a week of eating fish for dinner, we were looking for a change. Shalimar provided that difference we were looking for. Smaller restaurant conveniently located downtown (a 3 minutes walk from hotels like Radisson Blu and Hilton Konsulat). Staff were friendly and knowledgeable. Once we identified a gluten allergy for a member of our party, the chef came out himself to discuss ingredients and I enjoyed a tasty, gluten-free dinner. Tiki masala tasted a bit different than I’ve had at other Indian restaurants in the U.S. but this was prepared in line with the Pakistani recipe (not a surprise…waiter was upfront about it when we ordered). Prices in this area are very high, so I would call this an affordable option in downtown (more than I would expect elsewhere but not bad for Reykjavík prices).

Really nice curry small restaurant but friendly and in central location near English pub and American bar Would recommend
