Really delicious food. No joke. I have been dining here for 10 years. Always tasteful

May 2022. After reading all the raving reviews drove nearly and hour to try them out. We ordered their highly recommended - beef... Nihari, Mix tandoori Platter , Aloo palak , naan, and decided to end on a sweet note with Kheer and Chai. We were there duringpeak lunch time of 1:15pm on a Sunday. First a plate of garden salad arrived , with wilted lettuce so we chose to say we did notwant the salad. Next the large tandoori plate arrived ( smoking and sizzling) yo my surprise only the platter base was sizzling.All the kababs were cold, chewey and dry. Like it may have been really old ( possibly from last night) and microwaved a fewtimes already. They came the Nihari and palak. Nihari was decent (6/10) but heavy on the elaichi. Aloo palak was a hit. Tasty,fresh and delicious. Kheer was basically chunky rice pudding. (2/10) Being of South East Asian decent I do know a thing or twoof how these dishes should look , taste and be presented . Now let?s talk Chai!! If it?s not made they can politely say theyhave none prepared. Instead they charged $2/ cup and brought out a warm ( not piping hot) cup of milk with a hint of beige tintthat one gets after a few dips of a tea bag. I am used to Pakwan and Shalimar ( in the NorCal Bay Area) level of taste andfreshness and this was by far a definition of disappointment today. Restaurant dining area was overall clean. The restroom had apuddle of water on the floor and around the sink. A good restaurants will have great business and longevity only when theymaintain quality, service, and cleanliness comprised in one. It is not an easy task but one has to master it to stay in thegame. Read more

Good food, naan was dry. Did a take out order. They don?t have a way to notify you your order is ready, when you go to check the... server is running around. They asked me if it was my order I was taking when I walked in to pick it up and got tired of waiting.Server said he will bring it to my car but did not. Anyhow food was good, would return and recommend. Read more

This unassuming building has pretty legit food! Unlike most Pakistani/Indian restaurants in the US, this place does not... Americanize the food as much. The food does have a good amount of spice and flavor. I suggest going with their dinner special.It?s reasonably priced at $13, and it comes with a smorgasbord of different curries as well as a piece of tandoori chicken, aseekh kebab, and naan. It is more than enough food for one person. We went a little overboard and also ordered their mixedtandoori. This was an insane amount of piled meat that we could not even come close to touching. I will say that their lamb inthe lamb korma was a little dry and tough. Overall though, I definitely can see why it is so widely and highly rated. Read more

???????? PAKISTAN Excerpt from Eat the World Los Angeles: Those to-go orders seem to be full of lunch and dinner specials that... the restaurant has been providing for many years. The dinner special ($12) has a seekh kabob and drumstick of tandoori chickenover rice and adds both a lamb and chicken korma, lentils, naan, and yogurt sauce. There is no part of this plate that is weak. Read more
