Pakistani Restaurants near Mountain View, CA

“This is a nice go to spot but be warned it's not your avg sit down dinning area. Consider more of a ghost kitchen with a name attached. They offer alot of the standard food items but are restricted to certain days for more popular menu items. Service is friendly and fast.“

“Zareen stands out as a unique and exceptional restaurant, particularly renowned for its delectable Indian and Pakistani cuisine. Their food is truly exceptional, offering a distinct departure from conventional Indian dishes. The restaurant’s unique taste sets it apart from the rest. Notably, their mango lassi is a popular beverage that is highly recommended for any visitor. The naan, especially the garlic naan, is particularly noteworthy for its exceptional flavor. The overall quality of the food at Zareen is consistently high, making it challenging for patrons to choose a dish that they will not enjoy. This highly recommended restaurant is a must-visit destination for anyone seeking authentic and flavorful Indian and Pakistani cuisine.“

“Affordable Michelin-recommended spot in Palo Alto that’s perfect for a casual meal.

Parking was easy with free street parking. The vibe is fast-casual with limited indoor seating, but there’s plenty of outdoor seating with umbrellas, including overflow tables set up along the sidewalk.

You order and pay at the counter, get a number, and the food is brought to your table.

Everything we tried was delicious. The grilled chicken boti sizzler and chicken tikka thali both had incredibly tender, flavorful chicken. The garlic naan was warm and fluffy, and the mango lassi was thick, refreshing, and not overly sweet. Portions were generous for the price.

Fun fact: Zareen’s was founded by Karachi native Zareen Khan, who even bought a house in Menlo Park to rent to her employees at an affordable rate because of Silicon Valley’s high cost of living. It’s easy to see why this flagship location earned Michelin Guide recognition.“

“Excellent food, excellent taste reasonable price“

“Hey Haji ur food is superb. Ambience is Good. But my issue is tht near ur restaurant there is a physical office of meta , plz take my complain to them. They keep on suspending my account for no reason 😭, neither they give me any warnings . I m fed up, there was almost no violation. And I can't contact them as whole system is automated. Thanks brah“

“Visited all the way from Manteca, I wanted to express my sincere appreciation for the outstanding experience during my recent visit. This place offers a truly unique and welcoming atmosphere; the outdoor seating was particularly delightful. Each dish was a culinary masterpiece, perfectly complementing the superb service from attentive staff. The thoughtful inclusion of a prayer room was an especially impressive detail. I'm already spreading the word and eagerly anticipate my next visit. Thank you for creating such an exceptional environment.“

“We had a karaoke night there so it was a buffet style dinner which was very tasty. The appetizers were tasty too and our server, Jose, was the best thing of the night. He was enjoying the Indian music and then when offered, he sang such a beautiful Spanish song....“

“Excellent venue for events and food is the best.“

“The food here is phenomenal...! By far the best Indian place I have ever been.“

“Shan is hands down the best Indian/Pakistani restaurant in the entire bay area . Food is fresh, served fast (15 min or less) , affordable prices , complimentary amazing chai , and family friendly . I was introduced to Shan 10 years ago and I must admit from day 1 I was a loyal customer . I eat there about 3 times a week and have gotten my family and friends addicted to it . If you dine in and Varnoot is on shift consider your self to be very lucky . He is one of the most kindest hard working sincere employees I’ve come across . He always goes out of his way to make you happy and feel exceptional . If I had my own restaurant I would be honored to have him on board . There’s also a female worker I think Deepo is her name who is also friendly and very welcoming . Sadly I am leaving the bay area so Shan will be for ever missed . Do try them out for your next eat out or even catering event and I guarantee you will not be disappointed. 10 Stars !“
