"The very first Shiraz Indian restaurant was opened in 1996 in Whangarei. The current owner, Jaswant Singh Minhas, is originally from the Punjab region of India, and a chef by trade.He started working at Shiraz when he arrived in New Zealand, juggling shifts alongside his business management studies. He bought that Shiraz Indian restaurant in 1998. At that time it was opposite Forum North, a site that was later turned into a carpark.From there, four new branches eventually opened, in Dargaville, Kamo and Whangarei. Jas has a passion for delivering authentic Indian food and a unique taste of Indian culture to his customers. Shiraz chefs craft delicious food in traditional tandoori ovens which give naans, meats and vegetarian tandoori dishes"

Quality Indian dine in or takeaway. If you are looking for a place to take a fancy lady out to dinner and dress to impress, this is not it. It's casual. However, the food is great and service again, don't expect a butler here is good with helpful staff. Takeaway serving size: typical curry container+ rice container + naan feeds 2 people so good value for money feed 2 under $30. Vegetarian options: There are vegetarian options. Dietary restrictions: Halal certified.
Good food but inconsistent service. I had a few meals at Shiraz Haveli Indian restaurant, mainly because the first visit’s experience was a positive one. I found on the second evening visit that the menu given to me the previous evening was only a lunch menu! Even upon requesting, the staff did not budge. That said, the place looked busy - with diners as well as takeaway clients. The food was delicious and the service reasonably quick.
Entrees are so small they would barely feed a child. Still waiting for my main. Thinking about leaving. The 8 year old at the counter is doing a great job however, hence the 1 star. Recommend staying away.
Worst currys we have ever had. Our butter chicken was overly sweet and some of the chicken was over cooked and slightly burnt. Our chicken korma tasted nothing like a korma curry should and it was also spicy hot, we asked for mild and the chicken was also over cooked and slightly burnt. Our entree tandoori prawns with salad wasn't very nice either, the prawns we're over cooked and slightly burnt, the tandoori flavor didn't taste like tandoori and the salad was a tiny bit of shredded carrot and cabbage. Our first and last time we will ever order take aways from here, I want my money back, not worth it!
Bland and undercooked food. The onions were cut so big and the meal was absolutely awful. We first dined in and tried their South Indian menu it was horrible then since we didn't even eat any of it we thought we will just take away something as all other restaurants were about to close. The takeaway was not good either. I do not recommend this restaurant.
The only Indian restaurant open on Boxing Day… all owners on the deck, good sign for a family run business. Happy with what we ordered and ate, given the constraints with short supply on chefs and wait staff. The paneer chilly was outstanding! The softest cottage cheese ever. The potato masala stuffing and the chutneys that came with the dosa were short on salt, no big deal… but please get staff to do a taste test. Lovely hardworking owners. We have been regulars at their Dargaville restaurant too whenever we pass by. The industry is facing challenging times… Keep smiling brother. This too shall pass.
We had a terrible experience at this place last night. The food we ordered was so tasteless that I couldn’t have more then a bite. Still we were so calm and order some other food for take away, and we just gave a friendly review about the food to the counter lady but she was So unbothered and behave like she doesn’t care and took our take away order and ask us to wait for 15 minutes. And it was almost half n hour and we thought they would atleast show us the Courtesy to bring us our take away order but no they left it at the counter and when I went to check again the order was just sitting at the counter and the counter lady continues doing her other stuff.
We had dinner here last night and the food was really good. The Chilli Chicken especially was the best I have had. Thank you!
Loved Chicken Nariyalwala and Shahi Paneer..probably the best in NZ. Certainly 5 stars for the lovely staff, ambience, reasonable waiting time and of course the food.Food: 5/5
Lunch menu was interesting but portion was very little. Better I could have ordered main course.Food: 4/5
