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.

We walked in to the restaurant 5 minutes prior to our reservation & the restaurant was filthy….immediate red flag. I believe they might have been too busy & very under staffed. Regardless, they didn't seem to have our reservation despite my email confirmation, & seemed surprised once we mentioned it. After waiting again while they figured out seating, they appeared hesitant to sit us & ended up leading us upstairs. The stairs- that were at one point red & now were completely riddled with dirt- led us to an empty dining room & a table that wasn't even ready for us after several minutes of waiting. Although we still maintained high hopes, we decided to leave due to their lack of service or care to our party.

Literally the best Indian food I've ever had, & that includes my experiences back home in India! As someone who knows authentic Indian flavors, I was blown away by the taste, quality & ambiance (especially their playlist). If you visit, you have to try the Mutton Ghee Roast Mandi & Haleem, they're my favourites!

The order was completely unacceptable. The food was burnt to the point of being inedible-this should never have been sent out. This reflects extremely poor quality control & lack of basic standards. I will not be paying for unusable food & expect a full refund immediately. Please resolve this without delay.
