“Introduction-This is a Pakistani restaurant. But, they serve some Indian dishes also. As an Indian Asian, this is an average restaurant for me.Quality & experience-The food quality is of course good, but the taste of the dishes are so & so. I believe the owner sits as the cashier & she is a good person. If you don't know about the dishes or have a specific desire for a dish or taste, take her help. She'll guide you to enjoy your meal. If you want to try out Indo-Pak food or first timer, this could be an try-out restaurant for you. The place is clean & tidy. Have seperate restroom for men & ladies and they are cleen. Have plenty of sittings.Menu & price-They don't have a menu. So, you won't be able to know the name, how it is prepared, what is/are in it & the price of the dish. Be assure, most (95℅) of the pulaow (basmati rice), biriyani, meat, kabab, veggie, and daal (lentils) dish items price are $12.99 to $15.99 and enough for 2 person. If you have a big appetite, then 1 order is more than enough. Garlic butter Naan is $6.99. Lassi is $3.99. Their serving portion is more than other Indo-Pak restaurants.Buffet-Sunday is the best day to go as they have the buffet for $15.99 per person from 12 pm to 4 pm. Other days of the week are Ala cart (by order only).Business hours-Their regular business hours are from 12pm to 8pm. But I suggest going earlier/ daytime, as the location swarms with homeless people.Location-Located in a nice and quiet part of Riverside close to freeway. Also closed by homeless people's living area. It has a nice view of mountains. Has a lot of free parking & is wheelchair accessible.“
“We found this Indo-Pak restaurant in a Google search. We were glad that we tried the food here. The food they served had a homemade taste. We ordered Lamb Shank Pulao, whole chicken masala, chat samosa, puri, and naan. Everything was so delicious. Puri and naan were soft; I never tasted naan that soft anywhere else. Best food!!! The price was so reasonable. You cannot buy two samosas for $3 in any restaurant. The lamb shank pulao was only $17. The quality and taste are ultimate. The place was more welcoming, and the owner was so friendly. This restaurant is owned by him, his wife, and his younger son. Thanks again for the lovely food and hospitality“
“This is a long overdue review of our favorite Halal Pakistani restaurant in the IE! No other Pakistani/Indian restaurant compares to the flavors of the dishes here. If you’re looking for the best Pakistani food near you, stop scrolling and come visit this hidden gem! With the quality of the dishes, it’s no surprise that the locals keep coming back for more. As a small and humble family business, you can truly taste the passion they have for creating fresh and delicious dishes packed with immensely rich flavors.⏳Wait times can be a bit longer during lunch hours since they have minimal staff. But honestly, it’s worth the wait for fresh quality food. The gentleman, Fizaan, is the owner’s son and basically helps run the place for his fam and proudly helps cook some of the food during peak hours. He was welcoming, friendly, and attentive.?️ We have visited on several occasions & have gotten take out many times. Dining in while the food is hot and fresh is the best. The photos here show a Combo Plate option and a Sunday Lunch a-la-carte portion size. A more economical option is visiting during their lunch time from Tues to Friday from 11am-3pm for the combo plate which includes your choice of protein, salad, rice and a side of naan.The A-La-Carte options are great to share for two. All items pictured are our go-to favorites! Loved the Veggie Samosa appetizer! The subtle smoky taste of the Baingan Bharta, the rich flavors of the Chicken Karahi & Paneer Tikka Masala are absolutely delicious. I like the fact that these are not as oily or greasy as the other Desi restaurants we have tried. The a-la-carte dishes come alone, so if you want a side of rice, there are a couple rice options to choose from. Their garlic naan was soft, warm, and addicting with each dip into their flavorful sauces. Their Mango Lassi was sweet and refreshing! I liked the perfect balance of all the ingredients. Other versions I have tried at other restaurants were either too sour or too bland, which made me hesitant to try it - but I am glad I decided to try their version! If you’re not a fan of Mango Lassi but want a mango drink, they also offer Mango juice, which is just as yummy and refreshing. Many other authentic drink options as well.I always highly recommend this place to all my friends & will keep coming back when I’m in the area!Vegetarian options: Lots of yummy vegetarian options! ?Parking: Plenty of parking at this low-key strip mall“
“Friend took me here for the first time and expectations were exceeded. Mango lassi is delicious and refreshing. I got chicken tikka and lamb karahi with extra naans. Delicious food, great portions, and very nice service. You could be waiting a while for the food but it came out piping hot and fresh! Definitely going “
