Review Summary

Shaaz is widely recognized for offering authentic and flavorful Indian cuisine, with many patrons praising the quality of dishes like the biryanis, mandi, and various chicken specialties. While the food consistently earns high marks for its taste and generous portions, the overall dining experience remains divided due to inconsistent service and varying levels of restaurant cleanliness. Many visitors highlight the exceptionally friendly and attentive service provided by certain staff members, which creates a welcoming atmosphere, though others report frustrating wait times, disorganized operations, and occasional issues with food consistency or menu pricing. Despite these mixed reviews regarding operational efficiency and environment, the restaurant remains a popular destination for those seeking delicious, aromatic meals in the heart of the city.

Amazing Indian food & great service!
The flavours were authentic & perfectly balanced. The telangana chicken & garlic naan were amazing, mutton mundi & gongura chicken mundi are spicy flavourful & delicious. This is one of the best Indian restaurants in the area.

I visited Shaaz Restaurant recently, & honestly, the experience was extremely disappointing.

The restaurant was packed, but there was only ONE server handling everything - taking orders, serving food, cleaning tables, & bringing bills. What's shocking is that this isn't just a small single-floor place… there are TWO dining floors, & still only one poor guy running around nonstop.

At least 5 tables had already finished & left, but they remained uncleared because the server simply didn't have a moment to breathe. Meanwhile, many of us were just standing & waiting with no place to sit. It wasn't the server's fault at all - he was clearly doing his absolute best - but the management should be ashamed for running a busy restaurant like this without proper staffing.

This review is directed at the management: if you can't afford basic service support, you shouldn't be operating at this scale. I genuinely felt bad for the server, but as a customer, I value my time… & I won't be coming back.

1. Bathroom was broken (all stalls out of order)
2. Service took over an hour for two bowls of curry.
3. We were the only whit people present, sever prioritized Indian customers who came in up to 20 minutes after before us.
4. Food was okay, nothing exceptional.

Looking at the high reviews for the area, I question whether or not Canadians had ever had good curry or service?

Biryanis are really good... But didn't like chicken dum biryani.. it's rice is dry & have only 2 chicken pieces in it. No flavors.. very flat taste. I'll not recommend it.. Telangana biryani is so damn good a bit spicy'best'... This 5 star rating is just for that...
