Shaheens’s Restaurant was established over 30 years in North Bailey, Durham City.The idea of Shaheen’s Restaurant was borne out of the desire to bring the authentic taste of Indian to Durham City, reminding customers that the real taste of India was not all about the korma and balti one would find at your local takeaway, but about the authenticity of the recipe and the freshness of the ingredients that gives even the most simple curry the taste you would expect to find in a restaurant in India..
It’s my 2nd time going but the staff remembered me, they’re so friendly and welcoming. Onion bhajji's are a must if you go. The owner always makes sure everyone is happy, the night I went there was a party of 25 (I would suggest booking because it fills up fast ) but the owner handled everything and it wasn't overwhelming so we had a great night not feeling rushed at all. Highly recommend, definitely going again. (Nov. '21)
We are open 7 days a week form 5pm till 10pm. We get very busy, so we strongly advise you book early to avoid disappointment. To book a table, simply get in touch.
