This place is super busy, when we left there were people queuing outside, you need to book! The staff were friendly and accommodating. The service was swift. The food was delicious and authentic. It would be lovely to see a vegan starter on the menu and another main dish. Having said that my food was excellent with a good selection of side orders.

We had a lovely evening meal here, some really original dishes on the menu including beautiful guinea fowl kebabs! The Nepalese staff are gorgeous, when my wife found her curry a little hotter than expected they brought a complimentary glass of milk which was exactly what was needed! Highly recommended.

Food was amazing. We decided to book an Indian for New Year?s Day. We found this place online and it did not disappoint. We went for the Nepalese food and wow it did not disappoint. We?ll definitely be back next time we?re in Shrewsbury.

Absolutely Fantastic, Best meal we've ever had. Quality food, attentive staff and a great vibe to the place. Convinced that every seat was taken.

A gem of a restaurant. Had a lovely 2 course lunch from the set menu. Call by if you are in town 12pm to 2pm. You'll be well looked after.

As usual Avatar was superb, the food was amazing (sharing starter platter and then Momo for a main course. My Mum had a delicious spinach stuffed chicken which was presented like a piece of art!) but the friendly professional staff are the real stars. They are just the best, and I can't thank them enough for making our meal just that little bit more special. I'd had a rather cruddy week so far after losing an encounter with some muddy ground which resulted in a sprained wrist, but left feeling much better after this great evening.

Looking for somewhere to eat in Shrewsbury midweek night and picked the restaurant that had most people in, a great choice. Service excellent, waiter recommended gurkha lamb, it was delicious, full of flavour and just right as we didn't have as much time as we'd have liked. Attentive service, and what we could see of other tables, there were lots of happy customers.

We popped into Avatar whilst on an overnight stay in Shrewsbury, we were greeted by very polite, pleasant staff. The restaurant was spotlessly clean, menu, very extensive. We chose the Balti dishes, the saffron rice is amazing. All of the staff were very attentive, and our food was nothing less than perfect. See you again, Avatar, on our next visit. Beautiful people. ?

I have been going to Indian Restaurants and Curry Houses since 1975 and Avatar is probably the best I have ever been to. The food and service were fantastic. We started with a mixed starter of onion bhaji, veg samosa, seek kebab and chicken tikka. Superb. I had a Nepalese dish of HARAVARA CHICKEN CURRY in a rich spiced sauce which came with brown rice. It really was fantastic with melt in your mouth chicken. My partner ordered a traditional Chicken Tikka Masala with saffron rice and a plain Naan. Again with excellent quality chicken and the Naan was light and fluffy. So often I have found that other restaurants fail with the quality of the meat they serve but at the Avatar all the meat was absolutely top quality, which makes a real difference in my opinion.

Absolutely delicious food presented in a beautiful way. The Ghurka lamb is amazing, my hubby had the mixed grill and said the meat was very tender. The staff here are just lovely, nothing is too much and they obviously want you to have the best experience of their restaurant. We did book in advance and glad we did as it was busy. We don't live around here but if we did we would go here regularly.

Lovely food that is well cooked and beautifully presented. Its one of our favourite restaurants of this genre. The people who work there add to the value. Highly recommended.

I enjoyed Avatar?s £10.95 two-course lunch special. It was one of best meals I ever had! And such a bargain, so long as you dine between 12 and 2. Fairly simple, vegetable samosas for starters then a Kathmandu chicken curry as the main. Both courses cooked to perfection, delicious spices and very tender chicken. Garlic and butter naan ?to die for?! Good service by gracious waitresses, pleasant ambience with solid wood tables and chairs, photos of the Himalayas and Tibetan Buddhist mandalas on the walls. I can?t recommend this place enough. We?ll be back!

The Gurkha Lamb is simply delicious. One of the finest Indian dishes I?ve ever tasted. The plain naan bread was also superb. Quick and attentive service. Affordable prices. Avatar is a treat you can enjoy time and time again. With the equally outstanding Third Place Indian just across the river, diners in Shrewsbury are spoilt for choice.
