Gulzaar is a Halal restaurant and has been consistent in terms of the taste. I have been coming to this place for a long time. Even though they had an ownership and management changed, but taste has been consistent. Their Chicken samosas are the best on the menu. Their sandwiches and biryanis are good as well. You can ask them to make it spicy as well. They do have dine in space and restaurant over all is very clean. I would highly recommend this place if you are looking for Halal food.

It is one of good restaurant we have visited recently. They serve fusion food, you will find kababs along with Basmati (plain white rice) and Biryani rice. The biryani is not traditional biryani but taste is good. We have order Fatoush, Zatir and Jabneh Manakesh, chapli kabab, chicken kabab and mince meat kabab. They all were good, I have taken some of my freinds as well who have not tasted this food before, they were happy and have enjoyed the food. The Fatoush was fresh, Zatar and Jabneh was the pick of food. The meat was cooked well and they owner is gracious enough to provide us extra yogurt (raita) and curry sauce to make it spicy. We have eaten food with some biryani rice and afghan Naan. Afghan Naan was cooked perfectly although the portion could have been bigger. Other day we have tried kabab with biryani rice and chicken Tikka masla, biryani rice portion and kabab was good and delicious. Chicken tikka masla was good for someone who has not eaten it before but for people from India and Pakistan it lacks the spices and traditional curry base. My friend who ordered this was happy with it. The owner was very humble and very gracious. He has recognized us on our next trip and was available on hand to explain dishes to my friends and suggest them the level of spice they should try. They also have Kabuli pilao available although we did not try it. It is good place for both lunch and dinner, they serve halal food.

Taste wise it’s good, but it’s very very expensive… they didn’t change menu cards, so it has old prices… so ended up paying 45$ for one burrito-chicken and fatosh with chicken (5 small pcs chicken)… not worthy for those prices!!
