The restaurant is very clean. No smell and has a nice decor and lighting. We happened to be in the area and found it and were glad we tried it. It is a very authentic Pakistani restaurant. We didn't know there was a Sunday buffet and it was kinda nice because they had so many dishes that we got to try everything plus ordered other stuff to go that were not in the buffet. I am very picky in term of Pakistani food and this was a very good one. Food wise - the lamb and chicken biryani were nice. It had flavor and had meat in them. The Beef Paya was my favorite. The Nihari was so flavorful & the sauce is so good like your eating at Burns Rd in Karachi. The Goat Quorma had the perfect spice to it. The chicken tikka masala was delicious, I even tried the Pakistani omelette and was great. The seekh kabob was the least fav. - it was one of those pre-made frozen ones. I didn't bother. They also had Aloo Chana and many selections of desserts - Kheer, Ras Malai, Gulab Jaman, mango lassi, and many other fruits - all presented nicely. The naan was made fresh. There was a lot to the buffet selection as you can see on the pics I am attaching. We ordered Magaz Masala to go and was wonderful. I definitely recommend this place. No Friday and Sunday lunch buffet during Ramadan- Feb18th -March 20th. But they are open for dinner buffet. Go try this place. It will not disappoint. read more

The restaurant is very clean and spacious. It had a very chill vibe. I ordered the chicken biryani, and it was very tasty. The cashier and server were not super friendly to me, but the food came out quickly. I doubt I'll ever come back, but I just wanted to try it. read more

My husband and I really love this place , their beef Nahari is a very special dish , must try ! Honestly I think Pakistani food is really underrated! It is one of the most flavorful food in the world ! read more

Way too expensive and overpriced for what it is. I would avoid this place. All items are more expensive than other Indian / Pakistani restaurants and it's not justified read more

The nature of the restaurant is still new and looks like a mixture to reach a high to middle class standards, but have lunch buffets at 12 to 3. which makes it a place for lower income. The place is still new and is unknown to the community because of the lack of introduction to the community and the lack of presence in this time. The way to get to the community is self introduction. For example, it is the fire station near the location where they can self introduce and gain word of mouth and maybe a regular customer. The food is terrific and has the spice kick for the adventurer to the heat. As to the specials for people who can't eat the spice, they have other sorts that make it good to eat without the sweats. The chicken is good with the meat that is hard to produce by the between of soft and tough to eat to the bone. The food is good and has a marvelous taste that I am willing to come back. The service good, but in a bias a bit because they are watching me type a bit at the table. Which from another customer's point of view to be lacking on giving a help to beginners that never try to food. If u know the food well, then u are ok to order, but beginners are lot in the community the most of the community is near the Asian Garden Mall and the vietnames to chineses areas. The service is great for the experienced eaters. But lacking that if u are a beginner or first-timers. Pros: Great food that can make u come back for more and have the services that can be great. Cons: The mixture of the inside the restaurant is confused to be a mixture to want to be high,class,middle-class, or buffet style that can be an undetermined to what customers that they want to bring in. As well as a placement in a community that is mostly beginners in the food culture. read more

I've been dining at this Indian-Pakistani restaurant for years. However, my recent experiences have been horrible. I returned months after the first bad experience in case it was a one-off, not a regular tasteless menu. Apparently, they've changed the authentic Pakistani recipes to reflect a bland assortment of dishes. The inventory in their refrigerator was definitely old, possibly expired. To make my experience worse---as of my last and final visit here---they automatically add a 20% tip onto the bill for you. Ridiculous! This review serves as a warning to all patrons---want an evening out dining on tasteless Pakistani cuisine that's overpriced...and includes a mandatory 20% tip----dine at Noorani Pakistani restaurant. read more

Recently we were there for dinner Ordered the whole chargha... along with some naan Onion kulcha, fried beef strips and some urud. Unfortunately, that was the worst chicken I've ever had in any restaurant in 42+ years here in Southern California Either the chicken was too old, or rotten... it was smelly Too full of spice powder We had to throw it away later even though it was packed in to go boxes The was the most tasteless plain naan The Urud Daal was good Beef we OK Lassi...salted...too thick We wasted over a hundred dollars on this meal...I won't be coming back. PS... that green chutney that was served with the a very stale salad... was FULL of green food colouring. Unbelievable. What a disgusting shade of green. read more

I've been coming to this restaurant and always order Magaz Masala since my high school days, the quality and taste have always remained exceptional. I placed an order today through DoorDash for pickup, and since I live in LA, it took me over an hour to arrive. I really appreciate the kindness of the staff; the gentleman I met even offered me water while I waited. Thank you so much for your wonderful service! I will definitely continue to support your business! read more

What a wonderful find! We ordered 4 different dishes and an appetizer and each was better than the next. The Naan is soft and delicious with the Palak Paneer and the Aloo Chana being our favorites. The Shrimp Biryani was also amazing as was the Paneer Butter Masala. The Service was spectacular. The seating was comfortable. If you are in the area it is a must try You will be very happy read more

Ordered $140 in food. Mainly kabob platters. Told them we were visiting from the SF Bay Area. Brought us kabobs that were old and reheated. When we went to pay at the end and they asked if everything was good, we called them out on what they did. There was no denial. Terrible. I'll post pics shortly. read more

My friend and I arrived around 4pm on Saturday. They have a buffet dinner from 6-9pm It's been a few years since I have been here and wow they have really stepped up the look it's nice and clean and cohesive. The aesthetic didn't matter either way because I always felt the food was delicious. Placed our order it arrived quickly and piping hot. I would recommend go big it a try. read more

I love curry and wanted to try something different then Thai or Vietnamese. A friend said to try this Pakistanian/Indian place which is close to home and supposedly good. I didn't want something too spicy to kill any taste. There's owner suggested the qurma lamb curry and it was a big disappointment. The lack of taste to the curry with a slightly spicy flavor and the lamb was on the dry side. Their prices is on the expensive side with like 6 cubes of meat/bones. It's 20 bucks and it doesn't come with rice or naan bread. read more

$25 for the buffet. The only thing l didn't eat here was the lamb and I thought everything was decent. It's got a little spice to it but nothing overpowering. As for the sweets, the donut like thing was way too sweet for me and the pudding looking item was sweet to me too. I'd skip all of the desserts unless there's new items. As for the beverages it's water or what I think is Chai tea. I wish they had a small one time serving of mango lassi-- that would make the price worth it. Overall, was the price worth it for the buffet styled food served? Ehhh. It's not bad but it's not great. read more

We went for everything you could eat. The food is delicious and authentic. Mango glass is included. I'm not sure why some reviewers mentioned the service is bad. It's a family business and the entire family showed us great hospitality with superior customer service. The only complaint I have is a transient man at the parking lot. Chicken biryani is a must-try. read more

Namaste haiderji just a feedback of the dinner today. We have eaten much better biryani at your place than today. Rice was too sticky today and meat was rubbery. The palak paneer was good and also the paneer curry. The Naan was ok as was the garlic Naan. The paratha was oily but good. Lassi was good. Just giving u constructive feedback. I have eaten much better biryani at noorani ji. Please take my comments in a receptive manner ji. Thank u. Sharadrao.nylagents.com read more

They mislead us with the wrong pictures, chicken tikka and chicken tikka masala have same pictures, I bought tikka masala many times from many different locations and I didn't see any other place named tandoori as chicken tikka and mislead their customers. Look at the pictures, especially their order page on yelp, I thought I will receive chicken tikka masala and received that tandoori look chicken. I called the store and asked about the situation, they humiliated me that I don't know the difference between chicken tikka and chicken tikka masala, sorry boss look at your pictures first and then judge your customers. They told me they can fix this if I go to store and replace it, what the heck, why do I pay for this platform and delivery then!!! I ended up ordering that "masala" one and paid extra 27 dollars, and their masala was not even good, my stomach is full but my feelings are broken :/ Never buy from this guys again sorry read more

I would highly recommend putting a sign outside of restaurant that says " INDIANS NOT ALLOWED" It makes me sick to the core knowing some people still hold grudge against Indians. Owner told me " you don't Indians don't have heart against your own people" We are so far away from home and yet we talk about these things. Note to the management : People that do not follow politics or do not care what happened in past do exist. Sometime we just want to enjoy our meal in peace. I felt uncomfortable at your establishment. read more

The prices are great, the food even better. I have been coming here for over a decade, and the food has only gotten better. My favorites are the goat and lamb biryani (and beef and chicken too.. but goat and lamb blew me away), and the haleem. The nihari was really good too, as all the other items. read more
