Beautiful 60 seat restaurant based in the heart of Waltham abbey, located next to the town hall. With over 200 free parking spaces at rear, it is perfect for bookings/parties. We have a 25+ years chef working with us to provide a high quality Bangladeshi

We have been eating here and ordering takeaways for the 10 years we have lived in Waltham Abbey. Always been happy with delivery times and quality of food.Not sure what's happened recently, but we waited nearly 2 hours for our food to be delivered, which is really unusual. Called a couple of times to be told it was on its way and would be with us in 15 minutes. Finally arrived, along with a free bottle of wine and a dessert which sadly didn't placate us much! And then, as I was tucking into my chicken biryani, I found a huge spike bone (shaped like a wish bone)Fully understand that small bones may slip past the chef, but this was not small! Very dangerous and put me off the rest of my dinner.I'd like to think these 2 things were one offs. But loathe to risk it.They also don't take credit cards for payment for deliveries, which they did, before all the changes that have taken place over the last few months...........

Made an unplanned first visit here, and were welcomed like old friends. Seated and taken care of, we came to order. As a table of 4, we had looked at the menu and decided to ask our host for recommendations. He proceeded to perform a deft diagnostic of our individual curry preferences, and tailor our orders accordingly. From "chicken, spicy, saucy, garlicky", I was presented with a chicken Handi, dialled up to my specifications. It was incredible. Naans were so big, we had to pull up a spare table to keep them on. Absolutely awesome. I have no concerns about recommending this far and wide. My only concern is that this may be one of Loughton's best kept secrets, and I'd hate to have to fight for a table in the future!

Our local curry house, and honestly the best curry both of us have ever had. The veggie biryani is perfect plus the saag paneer is perfect. Iâve had several of the chicken curries over the years - jalfrezi and korai are my personal favourites. Diligent service but always busy; try and go early if you want to get your food super quick!

Were a party of four and ordered a takeaway to be delivered to our home. The meals were delivered very promptly and were hot. As usual, none of the various containers were marked as to what was the curry inside and as most of their curries are are a similar colour, you have to poke about every dish to ascertain the contents before serving it up. The meals are OK but there always seems to be a large amount of sauce and not so much meat as there used to be and wonder if that is due to the sad loss of the owner in recent times?Hi Alan,Thank you for your feedback. We have taken your comments on board and will certainly be using them to improve the experience for our cherished customers. We will particularly address your issue regarding the quantity of sauce internally to ensure that the food is served to the quantity you would expect and that this does not occur again.After the sad loss of our Father, who was the owner of the Shuhag, we are doing everything we can to follow in his footsteps and continue his legacy, by providing the highest standards of service that our Father upheld for the past 40 years. Therefore we truly appreciate your feedback and sincerely apologise for your experience. We can assure you that this will not be repeated and we hope to be able to give you a satisfying experience should you wish to visit us again.Kind regards,Shuhag Management

We decided to come here on Friday night. We booked just a few minutes in advance, although there were some empty tables.We started with some Papadoms, as always, which includes four different sauces. I also had a Mango Lassi, which was delicious.Then, the owner recommended me a hot dish with lamb, which was superb. My wife had the Chicken Korma, which she said it was very tasty. We accompanied the dishes with some rice and lentils. I would definitely recommend this family restaurant. The service is very friendly and attentive.

Ordered a take away and I was very impressed with the food. We had a variety of meat and fish dishes, along with rice and bread. The only downside was with the king prawn tikka masala. £10.95 and only 3 prawns. I would have expected more considering the cost. Would use again but stick to meat dishes.

Trawling through TripAdvisor we came upon this little golden nugget of Indian culinary excellence.On arrival you fear the worst. The local Chingford crowd are friendly enough but seemed slightly surprised that we'd bother to "dress up" (I was wearing trousers rather than jeans and a graphic "T") and there was a level of gawking usually only reserved for clicky country pubs.Anyhoo, the restaurant staff were ultra-friendly. They complimented my wife on her choice of dress and they whisked us through the staring diners to a comfortable table midway through the somewhat regimented layout. Endless waves of smiling, helpful waiters (I counted 6, including the owner) popped up at out table offering menus and drinks and at least two of them merely attended our table to enquire as to our general wellbeing.The menu is quite long with an almost endless array of dishes all sensibly priced (in fact, they seemed worryingly cheap). However, I needn't have worried at all as the food at Voujon is beautifully presented and very, very tasty.Delicately prepared rices, wonderful fresh, fluffy naan breads and generous mains made from good quality staples of chicken and lamb all amounted to a sumptuous feast. Never stodgy, never over-spiced and with a wonderful attention to detail. There are nostalgic twists like the laminated desert menus featuring the deserts of yesteryear (not sure if these are intended to be so but they were great fun nonetheless). Wine list is basic and could probably do with a revamp but you don't go to an Indian restaurant for the wine as the curries knock-out the palate and Kingfisher and Cobra are usually the best route to take.As we wound down and stroked our bellies our waiter (Aran) introduced himself formally and presented my wife with a box of Maltesers - nice touch!In all, an authentic local curry-house experience - almost a throwback to the 70s and 80s but with good modern-day service levels and truly lovely food.

A friend recommended here as he knew we liked good Indian food. The staff were very friendly showing us to the table where our friends were already seated. The menu wasn't enormous, for us a good sign and there were numerous dishes that we hadn't heard of before. We asked the waiter for advice on which dishes we should choose, I personally like my curries hot, not only hot but tasty, not just burning hot. The waiter's advice was perfect. We all thoroughly enjoyed our meals but even so there was just too much to completely empty our plates
