So far I have tried 10-15 Pakistani/Indian restaurants all over the USA and Europe and I could not find Biryani in this flavor. For me the best biryani location as of today is this restaurant.

The food are delicious and not expensive. I will definitely come back .

Had chicken kadai and biryani...yummy!!..

So good! Been coming to Pakwan in other locations for years and glad to see the nearer location. Food tastes exactly like the mission one! Great work. Love Pakwan!

Probably the best valued Pakistani food in the Bay. The serving sizes are huuuuge and the biryani is spot on! Definitely one of my most frequently visited restaurants!

An overhyped restaurant. Biriyani that was served wasn’t biriyani at all. It could be pilaf or pulao, but not biriyani.

Unreal! Food has no business tasting this good ? Split two of the wraps with my husband. Everything is fresh, made in house, and packs a flavorful punch. Going to be dreaming about this place for a while.

Well decorated, clean and staffs are nice. Ordered chicken tikka Masala, Naan and Chicken Biryani. Totally different types of Biryani, tasty ? and big portion that can good for two person. Only bad things is, they don’t serve salad with any entries and no extra plates ?food is good so I highly recommend it.

We went there for lunch. We ordered the mutton biriyani, beef seekh kabob, chicken tandoori kabob and butter naan. All the food were ready in 15-20 minutes. You have to bring your food from the counter to your table by yourself. The foods were perfectly made. The kabobs and the mutton in the biriyani - both were juicy and fresh. We enjoyed the food. Afterwards, we ordered mango lassi and that was also delicious. We are definitely going to visit there again.

We ordered Nihari and it was really good. They should make it a bit more spicy, though. The gravy of Nihari was so good that we asked for more and they gladly obliged. Chicken Tikka Wrap was really good with all its fillings and sauce. Naan was so soft that we ordered more. Mango Lassi was one of the best we have had. Overall very good experience.Oh and yes, their green chutney was amazing; spicy and tasty!
