What Are They Saying About Us

I am obsessed with their butter chicken and cheese garlic naan bread it’s so good this is my go to takeaway meal comes with rice and it’s perfect for dinner and an amazing lunch the next day if you can stop yourself from eating it all in one sitting which is really hard to do.

Andrea Ramsay

Overall really good. Plenty of flavour and some individual herb tastes can come through instead of it being so singular in taste. An easy choice to make when I am traveling past Te Atatu on the motorway.

Hopped Zombie

This is without doubt the best Authenic food in West Auckland - for takeaway, or for dining in. This is nothing short of wonderful food.

Emmett King

We really like this place. Food is very high quality and service was with a smile. They've looked after us well through my partners pregnancy, ensuring the food was ultra safe and also making recommendations. It was very quiet when we went but a lot of locals use this place for takeaway due to food quality.

David Shaw

Great restaurant out in Te Atatu. Taste is premium 😋. Can be pricey but worth it! Somewhat generous servings.

ENKI'S FUN TECHNO STUFF (EnkiTrillionaire)

As a picky eater, trying somewhere new is always overwhelming. But Shahi Dawat has very quickly become our choice for a great Indian meal. The chicken tikka is by far my favourite, and one of the best in Auckland (I recently even had this meal at Cassia, and it was extremely average compared to Shahi’s). The only critique I’d have about this place is that the naan bread could be improved (I have the garlic naan), but honestly, this place deserves a lot of praise. Well done.

Dora Ioana

Always good. Reasonably priced. They are happy to use coconut milk to make dishes vegan or dairy free. Lovely family business. We would love to see the veganizable options clearly labeled in the menu. Thank you!

Melissa P

I eat at Shahi Dawat regularly and they never fail to impress me. The curries, naans, service and speed are always great here. Support local and head to Shahi Dawat, DON'T waste your time going to Shamiana next door it really isn't worth it. They also offer a delivery service with paywave available at your door and are always very friendly.
