Shadman Restaurant has been one of our favorite spots for years, and it never disappoints. The food is always fresh, flavorful, and consistently delicious. The chicken kebabs are perfectly seasoned and juicy, and the samosas are crispy, hot, and packed with flavor.

The staff is friendly, welcoming, and the service is always quick. The prices are also very reasonable for the quality and portions you get.

If you’re looking for authentic...

Shadman Restaurant never disappoints. The food is always incredibly fresh, authentic, and packed with flavor. If you're looking for a consistently great meal, this is the spot. Highly recommend!

Average food at an economical price.
However, in the platter, when you ask them to sub for something, they say we can provide it to you later as a refill (unsolicited offer).
And when I indeed got a refill (just 1 cup of kadhi) they charged me for the whole dish.
They have actually tried to do this twice. Instead of being upfront, they just keep adding it to your bill.
