It was a Friday night and we called in advance to see if there would be tables. Came in and goodness, the waiter or whoever working, it was tall guy with glasses, was very rude. Not welcoming at all. It wasn't where they came to you and take your order but we had to go to the register and place the other and that's fine. My family and I were situating what we wanted and my brother went to place the order. The same tall guy with glasses took our order. After my brother finished giving the order, my brother asked if the order can be repeated to be sure he didn't miss anything. As the waiter was repeating it, my brother didn't hear one item and asked if he could repeat it again. The waiter looked so annoyed and told my brother he needs to start hearing better... my brother addressing him respectful and told the waiter to relax and they both could have a respectful interaction. We were ordering almost $300 of food so if $300 was nothing to them, we could've taken our money elsewhere and had a good time. However my parents don't eat anything but Desi hence we let it go. The food started to come out. Food looked amazing and enjoyed every bit of it, even ordered for take out. I think another thing they could work out is stop feeding customers in foam papers. The plates are so flimsy and broke on me once. The inside of the restaurant was a nice place. Definitely shows their country and heritage. After we finished eating and it was time to pay, a sweet lady at the register was helping my brother out but because there was a couple of tables with the same name, she got confused about our order. And my brother was trying to repeat the items we ordered. Then the tall guy stepped in, more attitude and rudeness. I love the food. But I would never want to sit there and be serviced in person. I rather do takeout and avoid that rude man. Other than that their food is great. Do try!!

Two or three times when we ordered a whole chicken chargha, we received only small leg pieces instead of a full chicken, which is disappointing. Today, I ordered a chicken tikka roll, and it arrived completely burnt. This is the second or third time something like this has happened, and that's why I felt the need to share this review. My only request is that the quality should remain the same as it used to be, because I genuinely like this restaurant and always prefer ordering from here.

Lots of foot traffic and people picking up take-out. The gentleman behind the cash register was quick to greet me and polite. He took my order quickly. I love beverages, so I ordered two: Chai and a mango lassi. The Chai was karak Chai, so it was stronger than I am used to. The mango lassi (which I essentially consumed for dessert) was delicious. I've never met a lassi I didn't like! I ordered the 'Special Grill', which had one kebab of lamb, beef, and chicken each. It was served over rice with veggies, a side of chickpeas, and I ordered one basket of butter naan, too. I did my best to use the naan to pick up the food, but alas, I had to fall back on my western ways and use a fork. In terms of flavor, all three meats were seasoned well. After each bite, the spices lingered in your mouth. There wasn't heat, per se, but the mix of spices was still delicious. I say that of the three meats, the lamb was the best. And the chickpeas complemented all three meats beautifully! I look forward to returning and trying more menu items!

The ordering would be negative 5 stars. I'm really saddened by the language barrier and how difficult it is to order. Couldn't place a phone order bc of the language issue. Even saying just "doro wat", "tibs" was not understood. Walking in and pointing at the menu didn't work either. Holding up 2 fingers and pointing at the combination meal on the menu didn't work. The girl working didn't even really try to figure anything out. I got lucky and a other customer translated for me. But even still...failed at fulfilling the order of 2 combinations. I just got one then ordered more food at chipotle. They have bags of injera to purchase and many grains, lentils, spices that you can just grab and brimg to the counter. The food was wonderful and is love to have it again just not sure how that would happen. I might use Google translate next time.

The dining was empty and it was rather cold inside too, then again it was snowing outside, so maybe that's the reason for them not being busy and it being cold. The lady who helped us was friendly and was very helpful with the menu, which was very nice. Their menu is interesting... it's one of these Middle Eastern places with so many items on the menu that they feel the need to try to appeal to so many that they have Italian along with Pakistani and Indian/Afghan - this is NOT ideal, please don't do this! You're Pakistani, Indian, Afghan, etc - stick to that food, don't try to sell everything for the extra business, it doesn't appeal to those of us who seek the authentic experience and food, but nonetheless, I gave them a try and I'm glad I did because all the food we ordered (everything in Pakistani style, since I'm Pakistani and I appreciate when this food is done right) was pretty darn good! We start with veggie pakora and veggie samosa, the pakora was spot-on perfect! The chickpea dough was seasoned perfectly and these tasted great! The samosa's dough was incorrect, like pie dough, but the filling was great! The entrées were pretty good - We tried beef chapli kabob - a little thin, but packed with flavor. Their veggie biryani was folded properly into the curry and had the beautiful colors it's supposed to have. Flavors were decent as well. Chicken Karahi, one of my favs was actually spot-on! The sweetness of the tomato in it was perfect alongside the tastiness of the curry - great dish! Channa (or choli, not sure what they call it there) was decent, but lacked the depth of "stewed down" flavor that I like from chickpea curry that's done with dried beans, this tasted/resembled canned chickpeas. Aloo Pollak was decent, but lacked that deep flavor that I love about saag or even a well-seasoned potato (aloo). As for their naan, it was GREAT! Nice texture, denseness, and doneness. I always ask for my naan to be non-cut and no grease, butter, ghee - I HATE this culture of putting that nasty, greasy stuff on naan, roti, or chipati - must be an American thing, because I don't recall ever having this as a kid in Pakistan. Bottom line - Very nice experience. They have tons on the menu and though I might not have though everything was absolutely perfect, 100% of the things I ordered were totally acceptable, flavorful, and when served with other dishes would make for a very nice meal. I'm not sure while this place has such poor reviews, possibly because they're trying too hard by serving Italian food when they're not Italian and they have no business doing this. Either way - stop in for decent Pakistani food, I definitely appreciated my visit.

The order (No. 1002) was picked up from their branch at 13600 Foulger Sq, Woodbridge at 11:50 a.m. The total amount charged was $242.57 (including a $37 tip). What we received was absolutely unacceptable. The order was incorrect and incomplete, with two meals and several items missing. We immediately called your restaurant and requested that the missing meals and items be delivered, but nothing was done. This level of negligence and disregard for customer service is shocking. We paid in full, including a generous tip, and in return received a botched order and zero effort to correct your mistake.
