Shahnawaz Halal Tandoori

This place is very tasty. The food is very fresh. The non-bread is amazing very clean environment. Service was awesome.I would go back again again .

Found out they have Sunday buffet so wanted to check it out.$28 per person, the lady manager & the staffs were all very friendly. it's a Pakistani restaurant which is a little different than the Indian ones because they have more meat dishes like Beef, Lamb etc.They had the usual Pakistani breakfast of Puri-Halwa-Chana and a few Chinese stuff like Chili Chicken, Sweet Chicken Wings, Fish & Chips but mostly Pakistani Style Chicken & Lamb Biryanis, Chicken /Beef Kabobs outside in the patio area, Beef Qeema, Beef Kut Kut & Beef Haleem, Lamb & Chicken Curry & a few more meat dishes plus some veg dishes like Daal, Aloo Gobi & a few desserts to finish things off.Now the Taste: Fish & Chips were all right, Puri-Halwa was very good, Chicken Biryani & Curry was good as well but didn't like the Beef Qeema at all (needed more salt & spices), Beef Haleem wasn't that spicy and also disappointing.I'm not into Lamb dishes so didn't try any of those and didn't try the veg stuff cause was already full with other items.For dessert they had another halwa, rice pudding and another sweet dish and they were all decent plus unlimited soda machine & an iced mango drink.Overall this buffet was a bit disappointing for me.

+8.5/10Sunday brunch here is a feast. If you can look past the cheap cups and plates, you'll find some of the best Pakistani food in Southern California. Their live bbq and seekh kabab with their fresh naan was nothing short of amazing. Their nihari some of the best in Cali. The brunch costs $30/person and is worth it.

We were craving nihari and to be honest came with zero expectations.. my husband was in mood of a desi buffet but we were informed its only for brunch 11:30-3:30 Sundays only... which I guess should be during the whole day but oh well.. moving to the the food The maghaz nihari was amazing, and so was the bhindi masala it was just like your eating at home.. so homely so yummy .. I felt tala gosht which is a Hyderabadi delicacy fell short in taste and it wasn't m charred properly But their naaan were so soft, fluffy and right out the tandoor.. superb ..brilliantly complementing the food .. their portions were also decent.. They had fresh pan too at the counter.. retailing at $2.50 each.. which were so good Ambience is basic but service is top notch.. very attentive and responsive... I would definitely come here for the buffet and other ala carte dishes 4/5

Called to check if there was outdoor seating on a weekend, they said yes. There may have been some language issues.Showed up for nihari buffet night on Wednesday and they said no outside seating. Didn't seem very busy inside and there's stone tables outside, but ok ‍ left without eating.

Amazing halal food! Sunday brunch is off the hook! Very clean premises and friendly staff.

My favorite Pakistani restaraunt in the LA/OC area! Always enjoy their kabobs and traditional Pakistani dishes, ambiance is okay and service is good.

Lambs chops was my order. Overall the meat was very flavorful, but it just feels their plates are missing something. Overall we had a decent experience here.

Ambience need a lot of work, service very good, courteous staff, food exceptionalWould definitely go back there anytime

I came after so many years and so disappointed because of food and service, food was just average i got stomach ache just after finishing my food also we ordered food to go but at the end when we asked for it they said it's not added in the receipt and they charged double tip and charged for to go food and when we asked to adjust it they refused, it's so ridiculous they could have adjusted it easily to make the customers go happy but no the guy sitting on counter was really rude we're never coming back here again no wonder I heard from so many people and hotels that they don't allow shahnawaz as caterer, for sure none of my friends and family coming here every again I wish Mr. Dara pay attention to their food quality and service
