   I cannot recommend Shelanous Restaurant enough! I pre-booked two months in advance for my husband's birthday, and it was worth every bit of the wait. From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was warm and inviting, and the staff went above and beyond to make the evening special. The food was absolutely divine—every dish was bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. My husband was thrilled with the experience, and it truly made his birthday unforgettable. If you're looking for a place to celebrate a special occasion or simply enjoy an incredible meal, Shelanous is the place to go. Thank you to the entire team for making our night so memorable! We’ll definitely be back!

   Absolutely sensational! This restaurant delivers an unforgettable dining experience. The creativity in the food was out of this world, with each dish crafted like a work of art and bursting with flavor. The staff were equally impressive—attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable, making us feel completely at home. From start to finish, everything exceeded expectations. If you're looking for a place that combines innovative cuisine with top-tier service, this is it. A true masterpiece of culinary excellence!

   The concept was great. The staff was enthusiastic. Unfortunately the food was terrible and the theatrics were clunky. Absolutely incredible marketing. Dubious reviews. Be careful!

   Brilliant dining experience- unexpected and delightfully surprising. Could not help but leave happy and satisfied. Theatrical but with great food to match. Chef Rony and team do an amazing job. Do not miss this!

   The Chef told us he is all about diners having a good time and he certainly achieved that. This is a multi sensory experience with much drama and many surprises ( so I won’t detail very much). The staff are attentive and highly energised and the evening moves at a good pace. Not an intimate dining experience for couples! The degustation choices were well presented but there was little contrast between the dishes - very difficult taste name a favourite. That said, it was a memorable and good night out.

    In addition to a phenomenal pescatarian 6 course meal it included a host of sensory experiences throughout the evening, which complimented every course. To describe everything would spoil the theatre of it all. The chef and owners talent and vision was beyond expectation👏👏👏👏👏👏
