Best Indian takeaway / restaurant I’ve ever been to, hands down.Great restaurant with fantastic food. The value for money is also incredible, especially if you get the early bird deal which gives you everything you’d want at a curry house for a very cheap price.Despite the cheap prices, there are no corners cut on the food. It is incredible. The amount of choice on the menu is just ridiculous. Never known anything like it, even at the bigger ‘chain’ curry restaurants. Portions are also very generous. Order the family naan bread, it is huge!We have also had takeaway from here before and it was spot on too. Also never had any stomach problems with these curries, which I get from a lot of other places due to the amount of oil on curries. Nothing I’ve ordered here ever seems to be oily, so it sits well on the stomach.Best thing is it’s BYOB, so it makes for an even cheaper meal out which just adds to the value for money.If I could give 10 stars I would. Excellent curry house and takeaway.

Delicious food. Good attentive staff. Vibrant atmosphere.Free parking behind the restaurant after 5pm.Best to book a table before hand as its a very popular restaurant.

Nice curry house, food is good quality. Parking at rear is free and usually afew spaces. Early bird deal is great value, normal menu prices are reasonable. Can bring your own alcohol if you wish, supermarket is across the road for drinks or cash machine.

Absolute terrible service have been here a few times and never has it been as bad as this. We booked a table 10 days in advance for 8.30pm we arrived at 8.20pm was told to take a seat as our table was not ready. People were approaching counter to ask for tables, the guy was asking have you booked? When they replied NO he said he would try and fit them in SO they were seated before us that had booked??? When we was finally seated at 9.10pm we we asked for coca cola to go with the alcohol that we had brought.. We was given a menu and ordered starters and main courses before 9.30pm starters came still no soft drinks. we finished starters no soft drinks. 10.30 still no soft drinks after asking twice still no main course either and more people that had no bookings still coming in. Main meal was about to come to us at 10.45 after asking again are we going to eat tonight?? By this time we had gone past wanting to eat!! What is the booking system all about?? we have contacted a local newspaper about this experience and are still waiting to see if any comment from SHYHIBA has been made We was given the names of ALI and ADAM from the restaurant to make comments to the press. We hope that this review does help people that want to celebrate an occasion to think twice about this experience..

We have visited this venue several times prior to this last visit and on each occasion we have used their car park facilities at the rear of the building to park as it is in the town centre. On the last visit mid week in mid Dec 2021 we arrived at the venue at 7.15pm ish to join our party of 11 guests and returned to the car at 9.30pm to find our car had been keyed all down one side of the vehicle causing £2000 worth of damage. We asked the owners of the Syhiba restaurant the next day for CCTV footage of the car park that evening to allow us to identify the culprits. But they weakly replied, ‘we don’t cover that area of the car park with our cameras’ and backed that up with ‘the signs clearly state visitors leave their vehicles at their own risk’. Whilst we do not hold them to blame for the damage or liable for any damage, they clearly do not appreciate or value their customers property or safety when visiting their business premises. They should have a serious level of responsibility to protect their customers and their vehicles when visiting their premises. This is how they REALLY show they value their customer patronage and loyalty. Whilst the excess for our insurance claim was £250 plus increase on next years renewal, which was incidentally the approximate cost of our party meals, yet we did not hear back from them at all, despite them saying they would look into a possible solution. We offered maybe a voucher or coupon of similar value spread across several visits. I even doubt they have improved their CCTV system which should have been their first priority and a personal apology and an update to keep us informed. So what incentive do we and anyone else have to ever visit this venue again. If you value your vehicle and safety think twice before you visit this establishment. Is it worth it !

Absolutely gorgeous Indian again. You just can't beat this place. Amazing food, and the staff can't do enough to please. Love that you take your own drink too. The price just can't be beaten!!!

So much food! 😍 It was so delicious, we had poppadoms and a pickle tray for our first starter.Then onion bhajis, paneer pakoras, lamb chops and prawn on Puri for main starter 😁Karahi fish with spinach, Nambali special, pilau rice, cucumber raita, aloo gobi, garlic naan and peshwari naan for the main course.It's bring your own beer which is great as it keeps the cost down and allows you to buy more dishes to try. They provide an ice bucket for the alcoholic drinks you bring (don't bring soft drinks as they are on the menu) and glasses.IMPORTANT to note that payment is CASH only so don't forget to visit a cash machine before your visit.We will definitely be returning.

Masti Fish, Lamb Chops, Shami Kebab, all excellent, and that was just the starters. Well looked after by Sufiyan and his crew.
