Shere Punjab

Shere Punjab on St Saviours Road has earned an outstanding reputation among east Leicester's Indian takeaways. A five-star food hygiene certification sits alongside a four-point-four rating on Restaurant Guru across more than five hundred reviews. The kitchen is known for authentic Punjabi vegetarian cooking: reviewers specifically praise the samosas as the best in Leicester, with parathas and aloo paratha preparations equally celebrated for their freshness. The food is consistently described as proper home-cooked Punjabi rather than restaurant-inflected curry-house cooking. Prices are excellent and portions generous. The modest décor is entirely incidental — St Saviours Road's knowledgeable east Leicester community judges by the food alone, and Shere Punjab has satisfied that audience for many years. The takeaway is cash-only and parking on St Saviours Road can be tight.
