Searched all day for some gut busting Indian food, and boy did we find it. The Boo is all about Indian grub, especially the frozen dinners she snatches up at Trader Joe's for work. The Spicy Chicken Vindaloo (That I personally added even more spice too) I ate up was tasty as hell, but I gotta say, the Chicken VindaPoo that shot out the next day hurt like hell...was it worth it, uh hells yes! The Boo got her fav Trader Joe's meal, Tikka Massala, & it didn't disappoint. We ordered some white jasmine rice & garlic naan, all was good. Also had two glasses of house vino blanco. As for the bad service reviews, it's most likely a cultural thing that easy going world travelers who aren't entitled would totally get.
Total price was on point at £28. Totally coming back next time we're in Madrid!
I missed Indian food after being in Italy for ten days and Spain for 5. Shapla was a solid experience and took care of the Indian food cravings. I wasn't sure what to expect but the reviews were good enough to try. There are lot of diverse choices in the Lavapiés neighborhood. We were planning on going there from the start but they definitely try to sell you to come and eat there. The restaurant was pretty empty but who knows with people in Spain what time they are eating. The vegetarian fixed meal at 8€ was a great deal for a drink, appetizer, main dish, naan and dessert. I recommend the dal, masala and curry. This definitely won't be your best Indian meal of your life but it will satisfy your cravings if you have been eating a lot of tapas. I can't compare to any other Indian restaurant in Madrid but with the low price it's a very small risk!
After seven days of tapas, we needed a break. Spanish food is great but we were craving some variety. We chose this place based on the other Yelp reviews, and were not disappointed.
The samosas were pretty good and served piping hot. Next we ordered the pulao rice, chicken tikka masala, lamb vindaloo, aloo gobi, and garlic naan (I admit it isn't super experimental, but it is our standard methodology for new Indian restaurants). It was fantastic, and we had enough to take home.
Easily the best meal of our time here. Well worth the euros and however many Metro stops it takes to get here!
Update: we would have posted a photo of the gulab jamun, but it was so good it just disappeared
Good food and options for vegetarian. Loved the daal. And naan that was golden without being burnt. The best part was that I asked for hot sauce and they actually made it fresh. It came out looking like a curry sauce and was super tasted. Was best meal I have had in Madrid during my week vacation here. Madrid doesn't have much tasty options for vegetarians. This was delicious.
Good Indian food at very reasonable prices. Out of the many options for Indian in Lavapies I'd say this is the best (although I haven't tried all of them). The menu del dia is a great deal: a starter, main, rice or naan, drink and dessert for €8.95 or €8 for vegetarians.
I usually get the chicken vindaloo, which is great: well-spiced and yummy. I love super spicy food and ask for mine "super picante," but be careful with this because they will give you what you ask for. Unless you want to be in pain by the end of your meal I would suggest going "poco picante" or just normal picante. Up to you. The samosas are also great, which I would suggest as a starter- stay away from the salad as it's pretty lame. Garlic naan is delicious; fresh, and super-garlicky. Mango lassi's are a creamy and sweet finish (especially if your mouth is still on fire from the vindaloo).
Llevo viniendo a este restaurante desde hace casi 10 años y nunca defrauda. Buenos platos, con mucho sabor, precio medio y servicio super rápido. Genial tanto para ir solo, en pareja o con amigos.
🍗Pollo al curry (9,50💶). Muy bueno.
🍲Cordero Dhansak (11,50💶). Nos encanto, mas jugoso que el pollo, definitivamente repetiria.
🍚Polao rice (3,50💶) arroz basmati con especias aromáticas. Esta bien.
🥙Pan Nan (2💶). Es un pan tipico, lo traen con dos salsas dulces. Una de ellas pica un poquito y la otra tiene toques mentolados.
🍺Cerveza King Fisher (3,50💶). Normal.
🥭Batido de mango (2,50💶). Esta bien, es fresquito.
👴🏽Atencion agradable.

Fui recomendado por unos amigos, y fue muy satisfactorio .
Típico restaurante de Lavapiés no esperéis lujos de local y decoración. ( A mí me gusta así original sino perdería la esencia). Dar las gracias al camarero que nos atendió nos aconsejo sobre que cenar por ser la primera vez que íbamos. Y encima nos regaló un postre un detalle por su parte.
Comida ,muy buena cenamos pollo taki y otra clase de pollo y pan de queso y arroz ,son raciones pequeña pero te quedas muy bien .
Tiene terraza con unas 12 mesas aprox. Lo recomiendo.
Uno de los mejores restaurantes indios de Lavapiés, en el centro de Madrid. Comida abundante, buen servicio y menús desde 8 euros. Hay servicio de terraza. Disfrutad distintas preparaciones, sobre todo al tandoor. Regularmente elijo onion bhaji de primero y verduras mixtas al curry con arroz de segundo, y mango lasi de postre.
Un restaurante donde voy desde hace años , siempre muy amables y la comida calidad precio muy rica de todos los restaurantes de comida indica de lavapies es mi preferido! Comida muy sabrosa .
