Nawaz Gulshan — reliable indian in Devon Avenue. The recipes feel handed down, not invented. You're greeted like a regular, even the first time, and priced right. Serenity Smith: "The biryani was aromatic with tender mutton, and the tikka boti was juicy and flavorful"

🌱Vegan & vegetarian friendly — real options, not one sad pasta.

Stopped by and tried the Hyderabadi style shawarma and it really hit the spot. The flavor took me straight back home. It’s not your typical shawarma, the spices and taste feel authentic and homemade. The meat was juicy and everything was fresh. Definitely one of the best shawarmas I’ve had around here.

I recently visited Nawaz Gulshan after quite some time, and I must say, it was an outstanding experience! The chicken platter I ordered was absolutely delicious, with generous portions and top-notch quality. The flavors were spot-on, and the quantity was more than satisfying. Muqeet Bhai, the owner, truly makes the place special with his warm hospitality and dedication to quality. I regret not coming here more often, and I definitely recommend Nawaz Gulshan to anyone looking for delicious, quality food and a welcoming atmosphere.

Food was literally amazing. We went there with zero expectations and were astonished by how tasty the food was! We had the Zafrani mutton marag and the iconic mutton haleem and both were literally out of this world. It reminded my of my hometown in India (hyderabad). I can confidently say its faaaar better than similar cuisine restaurants in the devon area. I never wanted to recommend a place this much because the person who served us the dishes was very polite and sincere. Will definitely visit again.

Don't order from here. The oil/fat/ghee is just floating in there. I puked after I ate the food. I will never order again. $20 for this Zafrani Mutton Dum Biryani is just a scam at this point and also the mutton tasted like beef rather than goat/lamb meat. Don't get fooled by the good reviews or portion. The qty is too less and also it felt like they just microwaved a lot of yesterdays biryani. I think they deleted their old page with bad reviews and created a new page. Just not worth.

I hate writing reviews for businesses, especially when they ask me to, but I’m a simple man: you feed me what Nawaz Gulshan fed me, I do whatever you want me to do. Delicious.

If you’re looking for a dining experience that blends authentic flavor with warm hospitality, Nawaz Gulshan Restaurant is truly in a league of its own. Their Mutton Tahari, Mutton biryani & mutton mandi as well also special chicken items like chicken Biryani and chicken Mandi. Whereas also they've served with Authentic Beef and Chicken Shawarmas. From the moment you step in, the ambiance sets the tone—elegant yet inviting, perfect for both special & daily meals also catering occasions. The staff are incredibly attentive, making you feel genuinely welcomed and well taken care of throughout your visit. But the real highlight is, without a doubt, the food. Every dish is crafted with precision and passion, bursting with rich, authentic flavors that leave a lasting impression, Absolutely outstanding in every way. Highly recommended!
