I am a vegetarian and hence didn't see many options. But my friends and family enjoyed their meal which included chicken biryani, mutton biryani, sheekh kabab and tandoori. The rice looked very long and split up. They relished the food next day too. I think the quantity was huge.

Hi, do have consistent hours or is it always a hit or miss? Edit:- I have never been so disappointed in my life. I went there around 3:30 pm on a Thursday. There was hand written sign in the door saying, “we are opening at 4 pm today” I could see an employee through the door doing some prep work. I had driven 45 minutes, so I decided to wait in my car for the place to open. At 4:10 pm, I went up to the door again, it was still locked. So I called them, the employee picked up and said everything is ready, he was just waiting for the owners to arrive. This dude was not allowed to open the restaurant. So I waited another 35 minutes, the place never opened. I waited 1.5 hours in my car waiting for them to open. They never did, and I left empty handed. The owners reply to reviews often. You guys owe me an apology. Edit:- Shame on you. Edit:- They have been shut down by the city ‍♂️

CAUTION, they are located in one of the most busiest areas without any parking facility! If you are not okay with spending an hour to find a parking spot, please consider going somewhere else. Expect to walk into a dark, glum place without anyone present there to guide/help you. After waiting for a while, I finally seated myself and after 30 minutes one of the kitchen staff member came by to take my order! Even though, it wasn't busy at all their service is super slow, it took about an hour to bring my simple order of chicken tikka and Naan. Bottom line, it's not worth spending all that time and a hassle to have just an average tasting food. Apparently, most of other reviews are from their friends and family ! You make your own choice, I'm not returning to this place again. Best of luck to you, if you still dare to try out this place! Parking: No street parking available, it's located at one of the most busiest streets. You will need to drive around for an hour to find a parking spot!

This is one of the best Pakistani restaurants in Boston area. My favorite picks are: Chicken Biryani and Chicken Kadhai . Chicken Biryani has fresh and authentic taste which is very difficult to find in US It is very affordable and value for money . They only offer takeout!

I recently had the opportunity to order catering from [Restaurant Name] for my wife's baby shower this past Saturday. While I had high hopes for a memorable experience, I must share that the process left much to be desired. Here's a detailed account of my experience that I believe could be helpful for anyone considering ordering from them: Communication Woes: Right from the start, the communication with [Restaurant Name] proved to be a significant challenge. Being new to the area, I attempted to reach out to them to understand whether both of their locations were open. Unfortunately, this proved to be more complicated than anticipated, as even the staff seemed unsure about their operating status. I strongly suggest that [Restaurant Name] updates their Google listings promptly to avoid such unnecessary confusion for potential customers. Connecting with the Owner: To place my order, I had to connect with Irfan, the owner of [Restaurant Name]. However, this process turned out to be quite frustrating. Numerous calls and texts were exchanged over several days before I was able to reach him. This prolonged communication struggle made me question whether I had made the right choice. Clearer communication channels and prompt responses would greatly improve the customer experience in this regard. Address and Pick-up Woes: My difficulties continued when it came to confirming the pick-up location and time. Despite getting confirmation from Irfan about the correct address over the phone, his failure to follow up with a text left me feeling lost on the day of the pick-up. Multiple attempts to reach Irfan and the restaurant proved futile, leading to a sense of desperation. Finally, after stumbling upon a staff member outside the closed restaurant, I managed to get the address and confirm my order. This ordeal not only wasted my time but also left me feeling stressed and frustrated. Food Quality and Presentation: While the process leading up to the pick-up was a struggle, I hoped that the quality of the food would make up for it. Unfortunately, the dishes fell short of expectations. The flavors were disappointingly bland, and in one instance, the spices that were supposed to be separate were all mixed into one dish. Additionally, the condiments provided were not up to the standard I had hoped for. Conclusion: In conclusion, my experience with [Restaurant Name] was regrettably subpar. The challenging process of placing the order and the subsequent miscommunication, along with the lackluster food quality, left me feeling unsatisfied. While I appreciate their effort and wish them better luck in the future, I cannot see myself choosing their services again. It is my hope that this review provides valuable insights for anyone considering ordering from [Restaurant Name], helping them make an informed decision for their event.

This is one of the most authentic Pakistani cuisine palce in Greater Boston Area. The only problem is that it is not a restaurant, it's a kitchen. They have setup a couple of tables in the kit hen where u can eat or you can do take out, which I think is majority of their business. This place is must-go if the taste of the matters the most to you

Worst food. We ordered nihari and the gravy was regular nihari gravy but the meat was tikka boti meat. All the other food was bad too. The tea was $3 but it was not made properly - didn’t taste boiled or cooked. Worst place to eat. Service was horrible as well, ignored us whenever we tried to speak to someone. We also ordered kebabs and we were charged for it, but we never received them.
