We have probably been eating at Haandi for much longer than most people who have reviewed the place here, dating from the time the buffet downstairs was open and very popular. So this review applies only to conditions as they exist at present, the food and conditions in the main area up the steps. That the place is frequented by South Asian taxi drivers and other people of South Asian origin is proof that the food is good and authentic! However , although the food is very tasty...read full review

Haandi offers five-star Pakistani food in a one-star environment. Despite the dilapidated setting, the food remains fantastic and feels like home in a foreign place. The naan is exceptional, and dishes like beef paya, Nihari, and Chicken biryani are flavorful and highly recommended. The "Doodh-Patti" tea is reminiscent of homemade brew. The menu features a variety of selections, and everything is well-arranged and immaculately clean. Prices are reasonable for Manhattan, with dishes like the platter, which includes naan, rice, veggies, and optional meat, priced well at around $15-$16. While the facility lacks upkeep, the authentic food makes up for it. The atmosphere may be average, but it enhances the meals and adds to the cultural experience. The service is good, with workers handling orders quickly while being conversational, although the place may not be very women-friendly. Some dishes, like the Sikh kabab, can be too spicy for some palates. In essence, Haandi is a culinary gem for those seeking delicious and comforting Pakistani cuisine in America, even if the food can sometimes be a bit oily.
