Food was ok, but the Hamza (guy in the cap) was extremely rude, big liar and horrible customer service... He told our family to leave in 5mins as he was closing at 730pm and then we left ... But we drove by after 30mins and still restaurant was still open, we confronted him but he refused to answer and said it's my restaurant... This type of restaurant can't stand for a day in Houston ...For people reading this - if you are from Houston/Texas region then food is way below our standard and horrible.

The place is horrible. I ordered the chicken tikka Masala and rice and were not edible. I am giving the place a 1 star because I couldn’t give it a 0 (zero) star. Don’t spend your money there. Cross street Indian food is much tastier.

Terrible, I have tried the pizza place 3 times as its within walking distance of my home. Every time I'm served lukewarm soggy pizza. The last two times I sent my slices back to be reheated, sent back to me exactly as I returned it. No more chances.

Always amazing. Smells so good. Try something you haven’t had before. Something you cant even pronounce. Healthy and delicious.

Horrible service. I asked for delivery through the restaurant itself and was waiting for around an hour and 30 mins, I called to check where the food was and they said there was an issue with the food (very vague). I asked for a refund and they said that they wanted me to come there and will give the money back in cash, which was very strange. After telling them that I didn’t want to do that and to just revert the money paid via CC, they said they will give me a call back in 10 mins. Finally the manager called me back and refunded the money eventually, but I obviously did not receive my food and had to find another place after an 1.5 hr. Ridiculous, would highly recommend not to go here!

I still believe that Shalimar is the best halal food in San Francisco and probably the best South Asian food in San Francisco. Spicy, heavy, full of flavor, and highly addictive!

This place is an San Francisco institution. Food is incredible, no doubt they know exactly what they’re doing. 10/10 every time.

Tasty food! Great prices! They don’t open until 1230 at the Polk location.

Wow! Wonderfully delicious. Hits all the right spots. These 1-star reviews are ridiculous and the 3-star reviews are stretching. I had the masala, garlic naan, and the spinach dish. Don't remember the name. All of which were tasty. Slight heat. The naan was super fresh. If you enjoy Indian food, give this place a shot.

Worst place to eat when you have so many other options near by. Gave us old food my entire family got food poisoning we were total of almost 25 people. When we walked in Resturant was empty and thought we can be seated easily, but that was the worst decision on entire trip. Very expensive along with horrible service. Go to this place at your own risk.

Authentic pakistani/indian food. Prices are very low and portion size is reasonable as well.

Delicious and inexpensive (for SF) place for Indian & Pakistani food for take--out/take-away.

The menu is confusing but we ordered several good plates and naan. Reasonable prices.

Best briyani!We ordered garlic naan, chicken tikka masala, chicken karahi, sheesh kebab, and goat briyani.Goat briyani was incredible - the meat was tender and the rice was flavorful with right spice levels.Garlic naan was cooked right in front of our eyes and totally loved it. We relished all the items.All the items are decently priced too!Will definitely go back!
