Lively Indo-Chinese spot with standout momos, cumin lamb, cocktails, and warm service; portions and sweetness levels divide opinions, so set spice expectations and budget for add-ons.
Why it gets a B+ for overall quality
Shera delivers solid neighborhood dining through exceptional service warmth and strong food quality featuring distinctive Indo-Chinese fusion dishes like mushroom momos and cumin lamb. However, inconsistent execution across visits—uneven doneness, temperature lapses, and sweet-leaning sauces—prevents grade A territory, while compact seating and bistro-sized portions limit broader appeal despite reasonable pricing for the concept.
Restaurant Summary
Shera brings Batignolles a compact take on Indo-Chinese, with warm, attentive service and a room dressed in plants and soft light. Guests talk about staff who walk them through the menu and cocktails that match the vibe. One diner noted, "the mushroom momos and cumin lamb stole the show," while another flagged music a bit loud on a busy night. The cooking leans creative fusion rather than classic curry-house comfort: momos, Hakka noodles, Schezwan sauces, and a chai creme brulee that surprises. Flavors are often bold but can skew slightly sweet; you can request heat levels, though a few reports said spice was not always adjusted. Portions read bistro-sized, with rice and naan as add‑ons, so value feels best when you lean into the house specials and share. For families, this menu is friendlier than many modern spots: kids tend to go for spring rolls, fried rice, noodles, and mild butter chicken. If your crew needs big plates or zero heat, manage expectations; if they enjoy crisp bites and simple noodles, they will be happy. No explicit kids menu, but adaptable items make it workable.
