We had such a wonderful experience at this restaurant! The lamb biryani was incredibly flavorful, perfectly spiced, & cooked to perfection. The chicken curry was rich, comforting, & absolutely delicious. The bread was fresh & crunchy, which made everything even better & paired perfectly with the dishes.
You can really taste the authenticity & care in every bite. The service was also very warm & welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. Definitely one of the best Pakistani meals we've had, we'll be coming back for sure!
First time, I tried Shaandar Cuisine's Chicken Tikka Biriyani & aloo tiki.. the experience is very good!! First of all, the environment is pretty cozy & nice, on top of that, the owner Uzma is super friendly & warm!! Overall, highly recommend this place. They can also accommodate 50+ people event, it's quite spacious.
Amazing Karahi, took the chicken karahi shandaar.
Naans are really good, crispy but soft at the same time!
Services was really good too, all the servers & the owner are really nice!
The chicken tikka was really good too with the chutney.
The food was amazing & truly authentic. We especially enjoyed the shandar karahi, beef kabobs, & tandoori chicken. Everything was freshly prepared, which made the experience even better.
Delicious chicken charsi kadhai but the gravy could be a bit more. The meat was tender & freshly made. Naan was not super buttery so very well balanced.

We visited over the weekend with a large family group of 14 & were welcomed very warmly. Kids friendly as well. The restaurant has a spacious setup, which made it comfortable for a big group like ours.
There were plenty of great options on the menu, & the pricing felt reasonable & standard for the quality. The only small feedback would be that the meat portions in the chicken tikka masala & nihari could have been a bit more considering the price. Everything else had good portion size.
The food overall tasted good & quite authentic. We ordered a variety of dishes including nihari, naan, chicken biryani, chicken tikka biryani, chicken tikka masala, Shandaar chicken karahi, Charsi karahi, & Bihari kebab everything was enjoyable.
Overall, Usma & Musa were wonderful hosts very welcoming & attentive. They checked on us regularly & made sure we had a great experience.
We had a great experience at Shandar restaurant! We chose the Peshawari chicken karahi & it was absolutely delicious. The chicken was tender, full of flavor, & perfectly spiced. The service was good & the atmosphere was warm & welcoming. I definitely recommend it, especially if you love rich & flavorful food!
Total Disappointment - Fake Ratings & Pathetic Service
'I was completely misled by the high ratings. Visiting Shandaar Cuisine for their Iftar buffet was a terrible mistake. Despite the $30+ per person cost, there was no actual buffet spread. We were told food would be served at the table, but it took 30 minutes just for two naans to arrive. The Karahi chicken followed 20 minutes later & was just a tasteless bowl of tiny, bony pieces. When we asked about the rest of the meal, they begrudgingly brought small, unappetizing portions of biryani, chole, butter chicken, kebab & pakora. The food quality was so poor it literally caused nausea. Worst of all, when we called ahead, they urged us to'hurry up,' yet when everyone complained, the owner simply blamed a lack of staff. If I could give zero stars, I would. Beware-do not trust the hype.'

I was trying a new place for my birthday, & I was surprised by the place.
The Best Best Best for :
Kababs & butter chicken, aalo tikki
What I liked :
It is Private & reserve
Meals were served warm & well seasoned with steam coming out.
The staff is not to overally friendly, they check on you randomly & came accross genuine.
I felt welcome.
The bill at the end , was less than we expected.
Nice place for birthday & date .
9/10 experience.
Could be better:
Wish the lighting was a bit brighter.
More juice option.
Music would have been addition
I don't understand how this restaurant is highly rated, we ordered butter chicken & naan, there was literally 5 pieces of small chicken thighs, not even brest, it's mostly the sauce, for the price we paid it's extremely disappointing... As for the naan it was half cooked, horrible, just waste of money & food... During Ramadan... One would argue because they were fasting & were tired by end of day, but the guy who gave us our order to pick-up was actually eating about 30 minutes before Maghrib, for a Halal restaurant this is kind of unprofessional!
