“Ghareeb Nawaz - They also have a breakfast special and a lunch special that offers a vegetarian option. Ghareeb Nawaz really good and I know I'm late bacause there is always a bunch of people already dinning in. On this trip I had a chance to try The Butter Chicken Barketta It came in a rap but I chose to eat it over rice, the chicken was really buttery and the bread that it was rapped in was butter too. I like tasting the coconut in the chicken its like a hidden layer of flavor. Stop by after your visit from Sandbox Vr this restrurant is right across the street from.

“my boyfriend and I come here at least once a week, great food, great prices, always hits the spot. This is also our favorite location, and we’ve been to all the others.”
“I had an amazing experience when I visited this Restaurent!! Max was the cashier , he was very helpful and the food was worth spending. I spent 12$ for frontier chicken with Biryani and it was loaded with chicken . 🔥 🔥”
“I just left a concert at Lincoln Hall and was looking for something to eat when I came across Ghareeb Nawaz. I was greeted by Max a very friendly and knowledgeable employee. He recommended that I get the #13 which is the Butter Chicken, he did not disappoint. The food was hot ( temperature wise) and delicious. I also ordered the mango drink which was sweet and refreshing. It all looked so nice that I had to take a picture. Ghareeb Nawaz gives you a bang for your buck, the prices are really affordable.I will be back to Ghareeb Nawaz soon, when you go ask for Max.”
“This is the most solid 4 star gem you can find. Like the delightful Indian street food videos we all watch but without the mess. Food is good. Don’t expect filet mignon but you’re not paying for it either. Good street food taste. I love all there locations.”
“It’s meh Indian food for a good price, got the meat thali with mango lassi and it was just okay. Service was friendly and food was served quickly. Overall for the amount of food I got at $17 this place is good if you want bulk food and are willing to sacrifice flavor.”
“I have no issues with their food but only thing is they should take care of this location. I have been long time customer of ghareeb nawaz . But this location has management problem . After 15 minutes official opening time the door was locked. If you are posting business hours you need to be open at that time for sure”
