Absolutely by far THE BEST Indian food around! My partner and I have been here multiple times and it never disappoints. It definitely feels a little lack luster when you walk in, but don’t let that stop you.. perfect spot for lunch!

I’m going to let the picture of Chicken Briyani speak the first part of the story. 3 pieces of large chick breast was covered with salted colored rice. ( made so called Chicken Briyani).Secondly, when asked about proudly advertised home made yogurt. Server/Waiter confirmed it was in fact a supermarket yogurt sold with marked up price.Finally, when we asked for water without ice, we were served warm water not room temperature but WARM water.I 1000% do not recommend this place. Please do not waste your money here. Absolutely disgusting food.

Visiting Charleston, WV for the first time, wanted something good to eat, so we found Nawab. Looking forward to some good food. However our experience was less than optimal. In my opinion, we were greeted rudely with the first thing out of the staff was , “we are closing soon, at 9”. It was 8:15, plenty of time to enjoy a meal. The restaurant was empty except for a few people popping in to pick up some to go orders. The food was ok, but we felt put off by the staff, I stepped away from the table and the waiter kept approaching and asking if we were done yet and even donned his coat on to leave . We were about ready to leave but felt very rushed to do it immediately, even though I was not completely finished eating. My husband settled up the bill and I was greeted by the staff that he had left and my food had already been cleared from the table. In my opinion the leadership of the establishment does not value customers and supports a grossly unprofessional atmosphere. Charleston offers plenty of other options of good food so in my opinion you would be better served to pass this place by.

I’ve enjoyed eating here since it opened up a few years ago. The food was always consistent and service was adequate. But the last two times the food has not been nearly as good as it should be or used to be.The time before last the mango lassi’s were undrinkable blobs. This time the dishes that we ordered mild were all hot. I’ve eaten here and at several Indian restaurants over the years and know the difference between mild and hot. Our “mild” food was so hot it was inedible. The server asked if we would like a box for all this food and we said no it was too hot. So he brought the bill. I can’t afford to waste close to $100 for a meal so Nawab is now off our radar of dining out places.

We enjoyed the food. The server was attentive. Not more expensive than other dinner places. Wish they had coconut soup.

Loved the food, love the vibe. Sadly, they don't do buffets no more.
Great dining experience with the food and drinks, really an excellent quality of cuisine. The waitstaff was slightly less attentive than I'd prefer, needing to be called over several times for things.Would definitely return and recommend to others!
