Pakwaan Fine Indian Cuisine

Food: Biryani suppose to be good based on my colleagues information who has been going there regularly with his big family. But being a vegetarian I decided to try their starters especially the ones I love and was disappointed, sesame Gobi, crunchy but too sweet and sticky sauce. The vegetarian kebabs were worse, no taste, very very dry and just for a stick of cheese in them.

Service especially the person running: for pick up it was okay, nothing positive or negative say. Went it and the guy just gave the food without greetings and paid and no thank you. Which is okay for me, but based of the recent incident by my colleagues who loves biryani there, it seems off. Has gone almost to shame regular customer when it was pointed out the regular biryani they order had just two pieces (maybe an oversight), my colleagues was accused of already eating it. 🙀

Atmosphere: I have been there once before but after checking the place out we decided to instead go eat somewhere else, it did not feel inviting to me but it’s a personal choice. It was very empty.

Top of the line Indian food. Everything was fresh and delicious. I hate when you go to an Indian restaurant and you can tell the food has sat for a long time. This was not the case here. Everything was so good and the staff was very friendly. I highly reccomen this place and will go there again.

Food is very good , less oily, perfect spicy bland ! Garlic Nan excellent!!!

🤗👍

Good and fast service, chicken curry was decent. Naan was great

We visited as a group and had a fantastic experience. The food quality was excellent, with both taste and freshness exceeding expectations. The atmosphere was pleasant, the staff was welcoming, and the place was well-maintained and clean.

Always the best Indian food and best buffet!

Easily one of the best Indian restaurants in and around Plymouth. We have visited multiple times and everything is delicious. Appetizers like sesame gobi, chilli paneer, spring roll, are all a hit! We usually order garlic/butter naan and the curries. Personal favorites- Baingan bharta, makkai saag and paneer tikka masala. You can ask for the level of heat and they will make it accordingly.

WOW! Pakwaan blew me away with their bread options, delicious vegetarian paneer choices, and incredible butter chicken. Everything was incredibly tasteful and the service was superior. Everything we ordered was incredible, hot, and filled to the brim with spices. Great atmosphere for a date night or fancy going out that doesn’t break the bank too.

This was my first time having Indian food and it was really good! We ordered a bunch of dishes and had it family style - I definitely think that this is the best way to do it! All of the food was really good, the service was solid and the waiters were very informative, and the atmosphere was really cool! This felt like a really authentic experience and I enjoyed it greatly! There were four of us, and I feel like this was an appropriate amount of food!

Naan Basket: this came with four different types of naan and all were very good! These were perfect to dip into the various dishes!

Kasari Paneer Tikka: super tasty! It’s pretty much just spiced cheese and vegetables so you really cannot go wrong with it!

Mango Shrimp: this was solid! The spring had tails on them so that was a slight disappointment. It’s just a bit hard and messy to deal with the tails while trying to eat this dish. But it was solid - had a nice sweet taste too.

White Rice: very standard and not much to say here. It paired well with all of the dishes!

Goan Fish Curry: I was a little skeptical of this one, but, it was solid! I liked it and the fish had a nice taste as well!

Chicken Makhni: by far my favorite! Everything about this dish was amazing and it had great flavor. I’d totally be content just getting multiple orders of this one!

Worst service on top of salty food, if you have high blood pressure problem then they will definitely increase your pressure by these two things. The person who were serving us has some attitude issues. First, he slams the water glass and other things when one of my friend ask for water. Secondly, they don’t take feedback nicely, they just gave lame responses. They are like, other people liked it even if it is salty. They should not be in customer based business if they don’t know how to talk to people.

Worst service I ever had in a restaurant. I simply asked for water and the waiter was being rude and slammed the water glass on the table. The food was not at all par with expectations. It was too salty! Will think twice before going to this place again.

Came here on a recommendation of a co worker/friend who said this is the best Indian food he’s had. Sure enough this is probably some of the best Indian food I’ve ever had. I haven’t eaten at many Indian restaurants but this was sooo so good. And the restaurant itself is a really nice environment. We came in and did the buffet. And I love being able to try a wide variety. Definitely beyond worth the price. I was shocked we were one of two couples in there for a Saturday lunch buffet. But it was a holiday weekend. If you’re considering trying it here just do it. I promise you’ll find something you like. I liked everything and tried multiple things I had never had. The butter chicken I could eat everyday!
