Le Shaan Tandori

I was visiting the beer bar opposite (which doesn 't have a particularly interesting selection of beer on tap... don 't bother) and I noticed a tandoori opposite. How could I have not learned by now? Never, ever, bother eating Indian in France. I put all previous experience to one side, however, and thought they can 't all be terrible can they? , and decided to give it a try. Silly me. The first thing you (don 't) notice is the smell there isn 't any. An Indian restaurant is supposed to smell of the spices this place doesn 't have any. And that gives you some idea of the pathetic bland tasteless rubbish you 're going to be served. The 'Vindaloo ' has zero resemblance to a real vindaloo. The 'aloo ' is supposed to signify potatoes it doesn 't have any. Not one single element of spiciness, just some disgusting dry goo that makes it look like dog food. Except I would be ashamed to serve to a dog this vile excuse for 'Indian food '. The pitiful thing was that the place was full, and everyone seemed to be lapping it up and the number of four and five star 'reviews ' on here? Is the French understanding of Indian food really so bad that they think this revolting garbage is any good? Don 't go here, please.

Nice lil place tucked in one of the side streets. I was talked into trying their vindaloo by the owner who was a friendly chap. Atmosphere was good and it was busy. Wasn't too pleased about their chicken vindaloo, didn't look appealing. my suspicion is that it was not freshly cooked as the food was out within a few minutes. Next time I will stick to my choice of food and will be willing to give this place another go just on the basis the owner was very welcoming. My recommendation to them is they should spend a little more on the food presentation.

if you are looking for a good indian restaurant, just stop by Shaan Tandori. Welcome and service is good and proactive. Food is amazing in term of quality and quantity. Took some wine and even if choice is limited, the quality was over my expectation in this kind of restaurant. A very nice surprise. I was there with my family and will come back again for sure.

We travel to India every year and we have eaten so called ' 'Indian food ' ' in lots of places, the food here is the best i have had outside india. The lamb was so soft you could cut it with a spoon, the naan soft and hot. Service attentive and fast. Go and have a great evening.

Nice place close to the city centre. Quick service and good staff. The food is ok and quite tasty. An option for something different. No need for reservations.
