Shahnawaz Grocery

This is a decent Pakistani grocery store and cafe centrally located in a modest neighborhood of Lakewood, between LA and OC. They have a reasonable variety of halal meat, Desi spices, lentils, rice, flour, snacks, frozen foods, and fresh produce in a clean, compact area. Their ribeye and T-bone steaks are great. After picking up the meat order and doing groceries, we enjoyed the Chana & Halwa Puri plate lunch in the cafe section. The friendly staff and good atmosphere watching cricket on TV made this a memorable experience!

Excellent Zabiha Halal food. Love their Philly steak sandwich, Cheese burger, Chicken & Philly steak quesadilla ( I ask them for no extra oil on quesadilla) They also have decent choice of Pakistani Indian groceries & EXCELLENT hand slaughtered meat.

Great options of South Asian groceries m for your everyday needs and great prices! Well organized too. Also there's a restaurant inside called Hot Spot Grill that is really delicious as well. I love coming here

Even I don't live in So Cal anymore, on my every visit, we try to visit this grocery/restaurant at least once. This store has been my favorite store for so many years. My biggest complaint about desi stores are not clean enough to walk around; store shelves are disorganized if they sell meat, then forget it; meat smell is so intense sometimes that you can't breathe. Thank God Shahnawaz grocery store's management is always ahead when cleaning and organizing their store products. I can't believe they are selling fresh, quality meat, selling grocery stuff, taking care of the restaurant, and serving the most delicious, especially famous dishes like weekend Halwa Puri nashta, bun kabobs, etc. Best of all, keeping the taste quality the same after all these years. As thay said, consistency is the key to success. When we ordered meat, The meat was clean as we requested Meanwhile, we ordered food from their menu specialty bun kabob, and I was craving Reshmi chicken kabobs, so delicious and melted in the mouth. We also ordered the most delicious fresh-made chai, which completed our visit. Please try their food ( Hot spot grill inside the Shahnawaz). You will not be disappointed. We are looking forward to our next visit. PS: person on the check-out counter needs to smile and chill.

Horrible experience Disrespectful Extremely unprofessional behavior by cashier Spender about $100 at this place eating burgers. Got couple of drinks, one drink got leaked d/t kid dropped the van, went back to replace, cashier straight away said NO, I told him it's a curtasy you should do it. Straight NO rude, arrogant, unhelpful. I was not ready to begin with driving all the way, but had to do with Family, had a worst experience, I would never go there personally. Being a customer service professional at other businesses, our service is thousands time better, even if an expensive products get damage, we give the new one to the customer, no questions asked Expensive MENU Over charging prices Staff good except CASHIER without GlassesHorrific attitude Don't waste your time, he is the only one standing at the cashier.

Everything was excellent: service, products and food. They cut meat beautifully mA and have the freshest cilantro!

Good service and grocery is fresh and reasonable prices mashaAllah food what they serving really testy and delicious

We bought the goat meat from this people. This company cannot be trusted. We bought 33 pounds of goat meat at a price of $12 a pound and when we reach home and we measure it it was only 23 pounds and they do not accept their mistakes and they do not want to give refund Oedipus to we had notice that they wait system is pretty bad they always steal money from people and they steal the weights so please do not buy goat meat or anything from them. They cannot be trusted in anyway.

The butcher cuts and weighs the meat inside where you can't see and brings to the front pre scaled . You expect the scale to be accurate but guess what I ended up paying more for less every time . I suspected this on several occasions and decided to check at home and my suspicions came out to be true . They also favor their own community people and have bias towards others . I'm not going back there ever again .
