We craved for some authentic Indian / Pakistani food. I missed the flavors and the aromatic foods. To be honest, I missed the frugal prices we pay for good food. We missed going to an Indian / Pakistani place located in the neighborhood. Ghareeb Nawaz checked the boxes for all of the above. While searching for a good place to eat, Joseph found Ghareeb Nawaz by reading the Yelp reviews. The reviews were spot on. After ordering, it does not take long for us to receive our food. I give the service an A. During the weekends, we order in and eat at the restaurant. The kitchen staff prepares a ton of food that we can savor for the next day. The ambiance of Ghareeb Nawaz feels familiar. Situated in a small area, the restaurant provides tables and chairs for customers. The place may not look fancy, but it has a family atmosphere to it. Just a short walk from the Fullerton train station, Ghareeb Nawaz developed a following of DePaul University students, and people working around the area. Many locals - young and old come here to eat. Come and bring friends, family or even a date.

Indian food has been my new obsession after going here. It's a small little restaurant with a couple spots to take a seat, but overall it's a simple concept. The service is quick and easy, and usually the place gets busy from time to time.I usually get the butter paneer as well as an order of rice for the table. They give VERY generous portions for everything, and my friends get a variety of items on their plate. By the end of our meals, we are all satisfied!Don't be afraid to try it! Originally, I wasn't too fond of it because it was out of my comfort zone, but now it's genuinely starting to become something that I want to integrate frequently within my lifestyle!

You can't beat the value at this restaurant! For less than $7 you can get an entire plate of rice with curry, bread and sides. They have a large menu with many different options, good for vegetarians/vegans as well. The food is very delicious and filling! Be sure to try the mango lassi as well. The interior of the restaurant has tables for sitting but is a bit small. The service was fast and accommodating. Highly recommend!

One of the best cheap eats under $5, $10, & $15. So many options so much good food. Veg biryani chimes in a $6.99 and they give you a pretty large quantity for rice dishes esp. I'm usually partial to lamb biryani. The vegetarian options awe considerably less and some really economical breakfast options. Great options for college students on a budget but honestly the food is pretty good. Kinda similar tastes to Halal guy but better. But the use zabitha halal if you have a dietary restriction. Service is general counter service. Probably seats around 20 inside which gets filled up and a vert casual atmosphere. Definitely check it out. It's a healthier option too compared to a lot of area staples.

Phenomenal and cheap Indian food! My Uber driver recommended this spot to me out of the blue so I knew it had to be good. Ghareeb Nawaz is super authentic with a wide range affordable menu. There are quite a few tables so it's a great spot for a casual meal! They have so many dishes to choose from. The curries do not come with rice (you order it separately), and after receiving our food we realized we could have split an order of rice between 4 people it's that much! The naan breads are also huge, plain naan is less than $1 and garlic or butter is $1.50. We got the Chana masala and palak paneer and once again the bowls are enormous. We were both stuffed and had over half of our food left (for $21 for everything). I find a lot of Indian restaurants to be more expensive than expected, so I am overjoyed to have found an affordable spot to get authentic curry! I can't wait to come back and try everything on the menu.

Exceeds expectations for a fast casual Indian food spot. The cashier was not incredibly friendly but efficient nonetheless. The highlights were the butter chicken, the flavor of the sauce is some of the best in the city , but the portion could've been a little bigger. The palak paneer was flavorful and a decent portion, but the spice was a little heavy. The daal was the second best dish seasoned to perfection. The garlic naan was huge in size and crispy.

4.5. Boneless Beef Biryani. What an unexpected pleasure. Really all the food items were as good as any ordered anywhere else at any point in time (butter chicken, for example).Just a lot of quality kitchen work at a very reasonable price point. Nice peeps. Flimsy plastic cutlery, overly small garbage can, and suitably shady bathroom are minuses. But the food!

I was in the mood for Indian food! Soo let me get into it! The food at GN was great! I really loved the garlic nan! It was perfectly cooked. The seasoning and spice level was great that it wasn't too spicy. I could eat here any time that I am in the mood for Indian food as the menu could entertain someone's stomach for some time! The service was great the main counter person was friendly and helped me walk through the menu! The atmosphere was great. I like the decor and how it was like walking into a different time zone. Overall, I will say give Ghareeb Nawaz a try if you haven't had Indian food before.
