Shagun Palace

Covid Takeout ReviewDid a GrubHub takeout from Shagun Palace yesterday, and was very satisfied with the result. The restaurant is in the rear of a shopping center on Street Road, Bensalem, where there is a significant cluster of South Asian kitchens. Competition being severe, the quality is higher than in many more isolated Indian houses. Our order: Veggie Samosa for an appetizer; Chicken Korma, Chili Chicken - Dry, as entrees; and Baingan Bartha (curry eggplant), for a veggie side; and Garlic Naan to soak up the sauces. The foods were all very good to excellent, with kudos to the korma and dry chili chicken, which displayed spice skill with the sauces. The bird was perfectly cooked, and not at all dried out. If there was a weakness, it was the Naan, which appeared premade and merely heated in the oven before wrapping in foil. It was thicker and drier than normal, and not the least bit flakey, nor with expected air pockets. There was practically no garlic flavor. Next time, skip the naan. There are talented hands at Shagun Palace where they are allowed to perform their magic. They are masters of curry cream reductions, but make a mistake in not carrying the expertise through to their breads. If they lack a tandoor for BBQ and Indian oven breads, they really should invest in one. It would make Shagun a more complete 5 Star experience.

Hate to give bad review, but really horrible food. We went on a Sunday, supposedly special meal was horrible.Service was decent. Highlight of the meal was freshly prepared Naan. All buffet items were not good, infact "pherni" had gone bad.They have parking upfront and an event hall attached. Ambiance is chill and it is a small place. But food was disappointing.

We came here during lunch for the lunch buffet. Was pretty surprised that it was pretty empty but maybe because it was during a weekday. The food was ok and there was a fair variety of food items to choose from. You needed to order the naan separately but inly if you asked for it. It was not an item in the buffet. Had an okay lunch experience.

I stopped in after getting Yelp directions since I wanted to eat Indian food and it mentioned Buffet on Yelp. Upon getting there the manager said no buffet but order using menu... I told him that they should have corrected buffet timings as Saturday/ Sunday. Anyway I decided after reviewing menu I liked few items so I ordered Egg Bhutto/ scrambled eggs -spicy w/ onions tomatoes cilantro ! Mixed in it.. great trading item with buttered Naan - Indian bread.. I really enjoyed quietness as only few people showed to eat at tables but many had carry out ordered so they waited to pick up their orders. They basically cook items when ordered that's why I should give five star but bad signage saying buffet ad you enter premises without specific about Sat/Sunday.

Great weekend lunch buffet!I ALWAYS enjoy the food, ambience and staff are very friendly! Must try!

Unfortunately this place has gone down hill so much. It's really unfortunate I have to update my original 5 star review. The portions have literally been cut in half if not more. I used to order the pakora to go and get a stuffed tin and now they don't even fill the bottom of a tin. I used to love their weekday buffet. I believe the price used to be 9.99 or 10.99 but they've since removed that and only do a weekend 15.99 buffet. Such a jump. The quality just isn't there. I've found another local Indian place.

Another one jumps the shark! Ugh, don't you just hate that moment when you realize your favorite Indian restaurant has changed and gone downhill? This place used to be epic: super fresh tasting, huge portions and very friendly service. The service is still good, but now the food is very plain, the portions are small and the prices are high. So sad. I know COVID has dealt a blow to many restaurants, but I don't think small portions and bland food will help any restaurant make it through these challenging times. I miss this place already: it's the walking dead now.

Bad food, no flavor, not enough choice in buffet. If you want to waste your money go there.

Food was pretty Good. There is room for improvemenT. There was no flatbread in site and they would not even bring it to the table. Chairs were nice but they shoud make bigger tables. Overall it is nice.

Stomach upset after eating paneer from lunch buffet. very expensive buffet and little options for vegetaria. wouldn't recommend the lunch buffet here if you are vegetarian
