It was my first time trying this restaurant. The manager made us feel right at home and made us want our food even more with the way she described it. All the food was brought out in a timely manner and it was absolutely delicious. 10/10 Indian food. I'm half Indian and the food was culturally accurate. I will definitely be back!

The flavors in the food were ON POINT! we got the nihari and a mixed chicken grill platter along with garlic naan and everything tasted incredible. They do ask you your spice tolerance level so you can adjust accordingly. Atmosphere could be a little better but it didn’t hinder us from wanting to come back! Will be returning here!

I feel like I can not say enough about this place, the food is absolutely incredible every time I go. If you're even considering it, just do it - you won't be let down.

We're so glad we found Kababish on Trip Advisor. All food made from scratch with an extensive menu. You are guaranteed to find something you like. The naan is otherworldly. I had the Boneless Lamb Biryoni (think stir-fried multi colored basmati rice with huge chunks of the most tender lamb you've ever tasted). The wife had black lentils and chicken naan. The raita was also delicious. And try the garden platter for the appetizer. Smoothest and tastiest hummus EVER. We will return with friends!!! And HUGE leftovers to take home!

Below average food! The taste was nothing you would expect from Pakistani/ Indian cuisine. The kababs were flavor less, the only thing you could taste was ginger. The karahi was nothing like we asked them for. Even the appetisers were average. Went with high expectations but sadly won’t be going there again.

Editing my comment just to clear it out. The conversation was hardly 2-3 minutes in which my husband politely told him we had high expectations but the food wasn’t worth it. When you ask how everything was, you should expect an honest answer. We didn’t like the food and told when asked. I don’t see anything wrong here. So please don’t use words like bully because it was a very polite review! And, i packed the food to go because we paid 80$ for it, did you expect us to leave all the food there for you to waste? Please learn to take a negative review along with the positive ones!

Food was delicious. Soooo FULL of flavor. Very nice waiter that was attentive but did not hover. Ambiance suits the menu and sets the mood for a lighthearted, tasty meal.

Family business, owners are operating with smiles. They are kind and friendly. Place is cozy but the portion of the meal was a bit small to me

Have to be honest, was my 2nd time there
1st time was good
2nd time not so good
My guests and I (all 3 of us) shared the Strawberry Salad on last Friday night. 24 hours later all 3 of us became violently ill with food poisoning. That was the ONLY item we all ate collectively. I called the owner and made her aware. She was apologetic. But truthfully This can’t and should not happen if foods are carefully cleaned and prepared.

Needless to say . My last visit there - YMMV

While I appreciate your response, after all 3 of us saw Strawberries in our vomit Saturday night & Sunday morning - we will not be able to ever set foot in your restaurant again.

It’s obvious something was missed when you put that salad on our table

A little meh. Friendly service. Clean restrooms. The food was just OK. We got a lamb wrap and chicken tikka biryani. The wrap was fine, the highlight was the naan, and it was accompanied by a delicious smooth yogurt dipping sauce. The biryani was mostly rice and had a spice on it (mint?) that I couldn't place but didn't like, very different from the many biryani dishes I've had before. Overall, a fine dinner, but not my favorite. About $35 pre-tip for both entrees.

Tip: If you sit outside in the evening, bring bugspray for the mosquitoes.
