★★★★☆ 4.0 Martin Gerald · Jan 2026

My daughter recommended it, having had takeout from here several times before. I’m a newbie to Indian. I was pleased with the tandoori mixed grill meal with one exception. The lamb was a bit tough. Salmon, chicken and prawn… excellent. I’m willing to try again to give that last star. Overall- recommended.

★★★★★ 5.0 Aqib Sattar · Feb 2026

I recently visited this wonderful place and it was an excellent experience. I tried the Papdi Chaat, Biryani, and Kulcha — everything was absolutely delicious and full of authentic flavor. Not only me, but my wife and daughter loved the food as well. Being from Pakistan, I genuinely felt at home here — the taste and hospitality truly reminded me of our culture. Sanju bhai and his wife were incredibly warm and welcoming, which made the experience even more special. I highly recommend it to the Desi community — both Pakistanis and Indians. I would definitely love to come back again.

The atmosphere is lovely and the place is clean. Every time we come we are met with amazing and thoughtful service, the food is delicious and well priced and we are never rushed and there is always a seat available. I mentioned to Mamta that it was my birthday and she gifted me a small cake and a mug to take home. Will be back again and recommend others to try it as well.

The place is located in a street mall plaza, where you can find some eccentric individuals hanging out on the side, staring as we walk in and out. The restaurant itself was quite nice, quiet, and perfect for families and couples to dine. The food was mouthwateringly good. The only thing I did not like was the attendant. She did not look happy or welcoming. The moment we walked in, she looked as if she thought, "Now I will be busy!" She rolled her eyes when we asked about something and did not offer a proper welcome at all. She acted nice and friendly only when we were about to leave.

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Abhishek kumar · Jan 2026

Today was my birthday, so I happily ordered food from Nawab, but the food they gave me was so terrible, I can't even describe it. The paratha and Manchurian were especially bad. I can't even put into words how awful it was. Maybe they were in a hurry to close the restaurant. Bad experience.
