I enjoy Pakistani food, so when in areas with Pakistani restaurants, I try to try new ones... I…read morerecently came in here with a colleague for lunch. The place was clean, I could even see in the kitchen and it looked nice. Service was fine. The menu is filled with the typical Pakistani/Indian delights. We tried their chicken tikka (boneless) kabob. The flavors were really good and the meat was tender. It came out perfect. The naan was incredibly soft and perfect texture and density too. Their veggie biryani was more of a mix of curry into the rice, versus the right way of making it with curry folded into the rice with some other colored rices folded in as well. The flavors were just a messy/overall single flavor, rather than tasting the different flavors. The karahi was really just a stewed chicken curry, versus a freshly made stir fried (in a karahi) style curry with fresh tomatoes and chicken. I could tell by how melty and stewed down the chicken was. Overall, the flavor was ok, but it didn't resemble the karahi I'm familiar with from making it and eating it in Pakistani family kitchens over the years. I still enjoyed the visit and if I came back, I'd stick with kabobs

From the moment we arrived, the service was friendly and attentive, the ambiance was relaxing, and the food--absolutely outstanding. I drove 1.5 hours for my birthday lunch after a day at the spa, and it was well worth the trip. The standout dishes were the lamb chops, garlic naan, and the crispy spinach and spicy shrimp--all 10/10. I also took home the Chicken 65 and Tiger Prawn Shrimp ( a must have ) both of which were just as delicious. Be mindful that they close at 2:30 pm for preparation before dinner service, so plan accordingly. I left with enough food to last two days, and with plenty of parking in the shopping plaza, this spot is a must-try for any food lover in the area or just wanting to venture out . Highly recommend!

We ate here last week (delivery), and it was good, so we ordered for pick-up on Thursday night…read more They had about 12 people in the dining area eating our waiting for their food, and the place smelled amazing. I picked up my order, which I paid for online, and as I'm walking away it seemed a little light. No bread (paid for/extra), so I went back to the counter and got our (2) orders of bread. The garlic naan was good, I preferred the plain naan this time with butter - this was amazing and fresh, very good! We ordered (2) orders of butter chicken. SO DISAPPOINTING - there was, no exaggeration, a few shreds of chicken in each one... it was all sauce. Maybe, MAYBE a chicken breast or thigh's worth of chicken between the two meals. If I had the time, I would have packed it up and gone back to the restaurant. PLEASE, if you are a manager of this establishment, you need to give people value for their money, or we will NOT return. You got two stars for the first experience and the amazing bread, I would give you 1/2 a star otherwise. BOO, not cool - won't be returning unless I have the time to inspect the meals.

While we were there, it was obvious that a bulk of their business is take out. Plenty of people came in to pick up their orders. One of my biggest gripes of late with their take out has been the portion size. It is noticeably smaller than other places. So when we sat down to eat, I was pleased to know that we could get more rice. We had 3 bowls of rice. But the nicest part was we didn't even have to ask. The guy asked us if we wanted more rice...3 times! I think I may have to eat there more often.

Once seated, the service started off well with chicken tikka kebab, which was delicious, and the wings were also quite good. However, the next round of starters--fish and chicken--were disappointing as they were cold and rubbery. The paneer bajji was just okay, and there was only one vegetarian starter available. The naan and curries were decent and fairly enjoyable. Unfortunately, the main highlight we were looking forward to--chicken and mutton biryani--fell short. Both tasted more like pulao and lacked flavor. Dessert included ice cream and double ka meetha, but the double ka meetha was very chewy. Overall, a few items stood out, but it was disappointing that the biryani, which should have been the star, didn't live up to expectations.
