First time trying Indian cuisine. I was surprised how good the food was in the lunch brunch. I had the salad with yogurt dressing, very nice and refreshing. I read all of the menu signs and went for the least spicy, butter chicken, tandoori chicken, pakoras, of course rice. I tried the curry and chickpeas medley-it was very good but was too spicy for my palate. Meal came with a beverage at no cost, which was nice. Very nice restaurant with an older gentleman who led you to your table. Very nice, recommend you try.

Every time I’ve been here, it’s been amazing! The food is great, and was my introduction to Indian food. I highly recommend coming here during the buffet hours, as it’s a great way to try everything for really cheap. Please come here, it’s so good! ??

Probably some of the best valued food you can get in the Capital Region. $16 (+tip) for an unlimited dinner buffet?? Yes please!A little unrelated, but this is a perfect place to go for a meal if you’re bulking for the gym. Lots of options for protein. Thanks Shalimar!!!
Great place to eat! Food goods, everything is clean, staff is nice. Going back often.

Me and my son had dinner tonight at Shalimar in Clifton Park. We usually always order take out from here and the food never disappoints and always has consistently good quality food. We extra drive from Latham to Clifton Park, because the Clifton Park location is the best in our opinion. The staff is also super friendly and also very kids friendly.

It had been a few years since I had dined in at Shalimar in Clifton Park. We usually would catch the lunch buffet on the weekend. My husband and I found ourselves there on a recent weekday night, and we were so pleased that we had decided to eat there rather than just ordering take-out. The staff were all familiar to us, and they clearly cared about their customers having a good dining experience. We ordered the mixed appetizer and shami kabab, which came with three sauces. The apps came out promptly and were warm and delicious. The entrees were chicken korma and tandoori chicken with orders of plain naan and cheese naan. The staff there knows how to time things just right so the entrees came out as the plates were cleared from our appetizers. The tandoori chicken was sizzling on the plate and the naan was pillowy soft and fresh. The chicken in the chicken korma was a good quality of meat and the serving size was generous. Our water glasses were kept filled. The staff were so pleasant to interact with and we left there with full stomachs, smiles on our faces, and a container of leftovers that I am looking forward to eating tomorrow. I would rate this dining experience six stars if I could.
Every single time I enter the Clifton park Shalimar my experience feels brand new and it's exhilarating. Food is always hot and fresh, the na an is is crispy and warm and the tandoori chicken is to die for. This is a must try if you're anywhere in the area!

I've have eaten here since I moved to the area 15 years ago. The food is always delicious and they are willing to accommodate special order requests when other Indian food restaurants won't!
I have been to many of the Indian Restaurants across the capital region over the years from Delmar to Lake George and by far the one I look forward to going to the most is the Shalimar in Clifton Park.I visit Shalimar mostly for their lunch buffets and always experience a clean and friendly environment. I have always found the food hot and fresh even when I have arrived close to the end of their lunch hours. My favorite item on the buffet is by far the Chili Chicken, it is an item I have never seen anywhere else and it is something you need to make sure you try it is a perfect combination of flavors and just the right amount of spice. It is only available every other day so we try to keep track of when it is available. Even when I arrive on a day without it, it will still be a great lunch as I enjoy everything on the buffet. They also sometimes have Palak Paneer on the buffet which is another rare item for a buffet that I am always excited to eat.Overall I highly recommend this place and absolutely do not go through life without having have tried the Chili Chicken it is a bucket list food item.
