Abshar Indian Cuisine in Redbridge

First of all restaurant is fine n has good ambiance but the thing is the service pretty poor or I can say I had bad experience in this restaurant. Mainly the waiter who has Beard, he talks rubbish and literally insults the customers I'm still in flabbergasted state that how that restaurant owner is still Happy with this rubbish behavior and finally I don't recommend this kind of restaurant and this kind of terrible service. And the fun fact is even that waiter didn't have a pound in his pocket. I feel really pity for him..

We came last week for mums birthday.. 20 of us. Horrible food!! Kebabs and chicken tikka was very dry and came in a plate rather than a cast iron sizzler. No mint sauce either. Chillin chicken starter was very saucy and more like a main dish.. we paid around £400.. worst experience ever.. Will definitely stay away from this place…

Amazing atmosphere and Fantastic food.Host is so friendly, service is excellent.Little Gem for authentic Punjabi cuisine in the heart of Barkingside High Road.

We booked this venue for 40 people few weeks before the boxing day for my mum's glorious 70th. The restaurant did not ask for a deposit or anything although I was in constant touch and they kept reassuring that all is fine until they called me on the 24th Dec at 9.45pm to state that they will not be able to cater for us on the boxing day and claimed that I had not selected the dishes from the menu. However, I had called them earlier, only to be told that someone would call back. When they called back, I was told they will not be able to do it, and I pleaded with them that it's my mother's special birthday and all guests were informed. But this was to no avail and went on deaf ears and the manager/owner was very rude and offered no real explanation. I'll never book this place ever. If you do so, you must have a contract as these people seem completely unprofessional and zero customer service!

Food is fantastic. Owner of the restaurant is very polite. But I do not like their service, the person who was taking the order, wanted us to order everything in one shot. So, we ordered everything in one shot and end up eating cold food. We go to a restaurant to have a drink with some starters first and then order for the main course. But this did not happened. Customer does not have a choice but to order for food in one shot. Never had this kind of experience before.

Great place to get your proper punjabi food fix.It's very clean, really nice setting and the team are amazing really professional and kind.The value is amazing, the portions are very generous and the food taste amazing, and the prices are sensible.We got ordered sensible amount of food we were party of 5 and the food and as mentioned the protions of the dishes were so much we ended up packing it for takeaway.Family friendly restaurant.There's plenty of parking on the High Street and side roads.They also do takeaway which is great to see.Will definitely be back this place has just received a regular customer, it will be one of my go to places.Thanks to the Abshar team.

Best grilled food ever. We were in a rush and had a limited time to have dinner. The waiter was very attentive and ensured food was served. It is a shame I do not live in this local area as this would have become my local indian restaurant.

Spot on great food. Seriously best Indian I've been to in 30 years. Food so so tasty (I'm vegetarian) excellent waiter service. Not bad price. Will be going there again. I can tolerate the background music which, wasn't loud, but more a little annoying. Top marks for everything else though.

My friend had told me about this lovely place some time ago but I never had a chance to go there. Finally at mothers day we decided to visit. We ordered chicken tikka, papdi chaat and tandoori garlic mushrooms for starters. Mains was butter chicken, stuffed small baingan and paneer chana jalfrezi with tandoori roti and garlic naan. Every single item was very lovingly prepared and soooo tasty! They prepare everything from scratch so there will be a longer wait for food to arrive, but so worth it!Waiters and staff were really caring and attendant, offered some good food suggestions. The kids loved the food too, which is always a good test 😉Highly recommended!

Food & drink: 8/10Service: 9/10Decor & atmosphere: 7/10Service speed: 8/10Cost: 8/10The best: Friendly service with tasty foodThe worst: The decor isn't to my taste.Lowdown: Had take away here and the staff were so friendly and funny. They assisted me with my order and the food came out quick. For take away they gave a few little other pieces which made it that much more amazing. The curries tasted great and didnt feel heavy like other places. The lamb biryani is definately worth a try! Watch out for the chilli garlic naan, it packs a punch!
