A shinwari restaurant that does not serve Rosh or half the items on their menu does not deserve to be visited. No heating arrangements for ppl in winters with their outdoor sitting.

Open air sitting arrangement is good. Food taste should be more better, background music and singer needs improvement or shift + del

Epice Shinwari:One of its kind in terms of location.Its near NUST gate number 10.Ordered 1 KG lamb Tikka, 1 KG Lamb Karahi and 1 KG grilled Fish.Tikka was OKayish, not too good.What was missing?Alot of smell & Meat slightly uncooked.Fish - good.Mutton Karahi - Finger Licking good and we enjoyed the most.I even missed the photograph.We used to eat 1 KG per person of these kabab/Tikkas back in Kabul & that used to be an appetizer. After which almost half kg Mutton karahi per person..Reason being, there was no smell & the cooking style was so good that there used to be no trace of soft sticky fats.Thanks to my Ex-colleague for the treat - again I am not aware of bill ..Since I ordered from the menu. Its must be around 7,000 for 4 people. Can call it slightly expensive.Lamb Tikka 1800/KGLamb Karahi 2,000/kgGrilled Fish 1,600/KGRating:Lamb tikka - 5/10 NOT RECOMMENDED.Lamb Karahi - 8/10 .. RecommendedGrilled Fish - 8/10.

Worst experience.Totally unhygienic environment, insects were all around. Very dirty sitting area. Prices are comparatively high. Found hair in the Karahi, dont know whether it was chefs hair or lambs. My guests couldnt eat properly. No proper power arrangements. Fans were gone during our meal. There are a few air conditioned cabins, but after seeing the cleanliness and cooling conditions, we decided to sit in open air.Again, it was my first and worst experience of dinner. I dont know why people go there for food.I strongly recommend that you should never go there. You can find much better place with far better food quality in very low cost.Thats my honest opinion, Ive tried not to be biased.

It is a wonderful place for having a comfortable meal with family or friends. They have a wonderful seating arrangement indoor and a great lawn area as well. The food is great but for a big gathering, this place can be expensive. Giving 4 star because of the price factor

Review №53

A nice restaurant for desi food. It is very distinct taste that is not the regular taste you find in Islamabad/Rawalpindi. The prices are fairly decent, however, their service is pretty slow. It took them exactly an hour to serve Lahori Chicken Karhai and Reshmi Kebab, which is too much for this type of food.

The have a good sitting place, however, they dont like to serve there costumers according to the demand. They dont care about the costumers even, however, a nice environment with ful of mosquitoes plus flies.

Review №64

Only go there when weather is nice and dry. If it rains than you would be stuck in the most muddy place. There is no parking available. Food quality is reasonably good, specially if you are a lamb meat lover. Only go there if meat dishes are your ONLY priority and you dont care where you sit, how your are served etc. A bit overpriced for the facilities they offer.

We had a Khadda Dunba(Dampukht) at this place. The order was placed one day before with an advance deposit. It was a 12kg dunba for 15 people. They had placed it in an underground pit and sealed it proper. On our request, they got it out in front of us and that was fascinating to watch. The taste was really good. A wonderful experience overall.

A good place to visit with family and friends.Some improvement areas:There is no proper sign on the main entrance on the round about also the Google pin was pointing further inward hence Google was not providing proper guidance to reach on spot, I have corrected the pin and will guide properly now, in sha Allah.Identification of wash room and Hans wash area was not proper, also there was no visible reception/information area.Parking area is small which should be improved.Food:Food taste was good, mutton was much better than chicken.Other items were also good. Garlic naan was also delicious, kalonji naan was also good.So in essence one must try the food here.

Review №93

Good restaurant with outdoor and indoor sitting, pool table, and a good menu in terms of variety. My friend and I tried their Lahore Karahi and Kabuli Pulao. Their wait times are very long (almost 1 hour on weekend), perhaps because they dont get much customers due to the location (we observed that the number of customers increases after 9 PM).Their chicken and lamb was not fully cooked and the waiters were unavailable a lot of the times. The dishes were slightly on the expensive side considering that the quality didnt match expectations. Overall, not worth the cost.

Their specialty is Khadda Dumba for which you have to give order a day before. Dumba was good but a little dry. Some of the persons thought it wasnt lamb but mutton. Grilled fish is another specialty, which was very well cooked and tasty. Their chicken sajji and lahori karahi were extremely good.
