Sher-e-Punjab

This place started out as a very small restaurant and expanded as neighboring storefronts were available. We had no problem getting 6 of us in on a Saturday night. The food was delicious and spiced as requested. I opted for a mild tikka masala which was perfect while others ordered a medium vegetarian dish which was also quite good. Service was good. It still is my favorite Indian restaurant in Tucson.

At this price point you can't beat it! Sher-e-Punjab delivers in ambiance, timeliness, and excellent Indian cuisine. Wait staff was attentive and food came exactly as I ordered. Bathroom situation is not completely flawless.

Rude staff. Cold, dried out, tasteless naan bread. I got severe stomache issues after eating only a small amount of the substandard food. Spicy Indian cuisine is one of my favorites so I was sadly disappointed with every aspect of my first and final dine-in experience at Sher-e-Punjab.

The food was good here. Entrees come with rice and servings were generous. It is a busy place. The atmosphere was similar to that of a school cafeteria or an outdoor eating area at an amusement park. Flatware and serving ware bundled and brought with the food. There were cloth napkins and regular restaurant plates. Bathrooms were single occupancy, with people waiting in line. Staff hustling to take orders and take payments. The "host" was a busy distracted man with no time for hospitality. This place is loud, complete with people (guests) singing and really embracing the outdoors in the park vibe. A piece of toilet paper (I assume detached from someone's unassuming shoe) sat undisturbed on the floor for our entire visit. I would not eat here again, but I would order takeout if I lived closer. The food was good.

Was pleasantly surprised with how nice the restaurant looked. I could never tell from outside. My boyfriend and I had Chicken Tikka masala, chana masala and for an appetizer we had fried fish appetizer, which I forgot the name of. They were all good.I wasn't so impressed with their service though. They just seemed like they were doing bare minimum. Towards the end of dinner, I felt rushed as the server came asking if we were done while I was literally putting food in my mouth. And the restaurant wasn't even full

Came here for a dinner date with my wife. Sher-e's is our favorite Indian restaurant in town. We weren't super hungry so we split an order of chicken tikka masala and chicken biryani. The food was delicious as always. We got medium spice and it was just the right amount of burn. My wife got a large Taj Mahal beer not knowing how large it would be The service was friendly, we got seated right away and we had a great time. Love the Bollywood movies playing in the background.

My partner and I ordered delivery from Sher-e-Punjab twice, and our expectations have been exceeded both times. I can't speak to the dine-in experience as we haven't been there yet. For our first order, we selected papadum, garlic naan, shrimp curry, Matar paneer, and a mango lassi. The papadum were larger than those served in some other restaurants, crisp, and flavorful. The garlic naan menu description says it has a "subtle touch" of garlic, but ours was pretty pungent! The first time we order from a new-to-us Indian restaurant, we lower our preferred spice level by 1. So, my partner got the shrimp curry at a medium level. While he found the dish tasty, he decided to order hot next time. I ordered my Matar paneer mild and enjoyed the creamy, flavorful tomato sauce. This restaurant doesn't skimp on the paneer or peas either; I had enough leftovers for lunch the following day. My partner and I split the mango lassi, and it was cooling and delicious as expected. The next time, we ordered lunch. We selected papadum, Kashmiri shrimp hot, and mild Matar bhurji/aloo. My partner enjoyed the heavier spice in his dish and found the shrimp to be cooked perfectly. My dish was flavorful and not just a bowl of sauce. We once again had enough leftovers to make another meal. For both orders, our food arrived carefully packaged and hot. We will order delivery again and hope to dine-in sometime soon.

First try at Sher-e-Punjab.Not bad. Service was not the most pleasing- too comfortable and more of a 'hi what do you want'. The restaurant felt like a mom and pop style rather than a casual/fine dining. Food was good. Ordered couple of appetizers such as the Keema Samosa and Shrimp Pakora. Tasty apps to start. Chef's Special Biryani and Lamb Tikka Masala were both delicious. The restaurant's spice level isn't the most spicy. If you are able to tolerate spice and balance taste; get extra spicy to ensure you get that kick. Overall Sher-e-Punjab was worth the try. Restaurant isn't located at the best place of Tucson. But based on what they provide, it's good enough.

I love when I get to hit up this spot for lunch, I went on a Saturday so I missed their amazing lunch buffet. So happy to see it is back. The staff is amazing and the food is too. I had the Aloo Gobi (potatoes and cauliflower) one of my favorite dishes, and my mom had the Chicken Tikka Masala always a fan favorite. This is one of the best Indian places in Tucson. There are more but I love this one and the buffet, where you can try different flavors.

We were craving for some Indian foods but our favorite Indian restaurant was closed for the day so our search for the plan B was this one.It was located off the busy road but the space was comfortable with the aromatic Indian spices filling the air & friendly staff welcoming & sitting us immediately . So far so good, we thought.We chose the sampler appetizer , Lamb Vindaloo for me ,Rogan Josh for the hubby, & the garlic naan from there extensive menu but struggled with selecting a wine in their limited drink choices eventually picking an Indian beer for the hubby & Sauvignon Blanc for me. The samplers were not fresh , crispy or soft. Too dry to our liking. The requested medium-spicy main dishes were very bland. What was interesting was that the two separate main dishes tasted almost the same. The texture in the Vindaloo sauce was too watery lacking the distinctive flavor & the Rohan Josh tasted not much different from the Lamb Vindaloo. We were not enjoying much but what ticked us off the most was the " friendly " server's request for a Google review right there while we were dining. So we would go back to our favorite local Indian restaurant, Saffron , as this plan B did not work for us.
