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.

Food is really good, we got different chicken biryani dishes & they were both excellent ! The spice, the taste, the rice everything is really good, I'll go back for sure. Portions are really good too! The service was excellent too.

Vraiment délicieux, la soupe au mouton est une des meilleures choses que j'ai pu goûter dans un restaurant indien. Les plats végétariens sont très bons, le chicken Korma vraiment savoureux. Les pains naans valent le coup car moins coûteux que dans d'autres restaurants. Bon accueil souriant !

Online ordering sucks, neither they take order over phone nor their website works.

They push to Uber Eats & force us to pay extra money intentionally.

The food here falls short of my expectations. While I have visited Shaaz in Toronto before, this establishment does not seem to offer the same quality. They previously served Hyderabad Zafrani Legacy, but this restaurant does not come close to that style of cuisine.

I visited this restaurant recently & unfortunately had a disappointing experience due to the service at the reception. The entire restaurant was almost empty, with only one table occupied. I politely requested to change our table because it was placed right near the stairs & on the main walkway to the washroom, which felt uncomfortable as people would constantly walk by & watch while we were eating.

Despite the restaurant being clearly empty, the receptionist responded rudely & said the restaurant was'fully booked,' which did not seem honest or reasonable given the situation.

I do not have any complaints about the food or the serving staff - everything else was fine. However, the attitude & response from the receptionist completely affected the overall experience. Because of this poor customer service, I will not be visiting this restaurant again.

We ordered biryani last night & returned to order again. This time, we were served biryani that was clearly old & from the previous night. Serving leftover food is completely unacceptable & a serious food safety concern. On top of that, the lady at the front desk showed a very rude attitude. Even after we raised the issue, there was no response or concern shown at all. The management is the worst & clearly does not care about customers or quality. Extremely disappointed. Will not be returning.
