Truly a pleasant place to eat and smile. The owners are sweet and hardworking. Although the place is small and the hours are weird for a restaurant, it is worth to get in and taste the food. We also ordered some biryani which they gave us fresh on Sunday when the restaurant was closed. Forgot to take a picture before we finished it but nothing was left at the end.

Ordered lamb biriyani. Doesent taste like real byriani. 10 small pieces of oversalted meat and completely unsalted rice. Container is half empty so not alot of food for sure. Definitely a ripoff. Other indian places give way more meat and containers are full.

Excellent food! Unique fare and flavor… this is not your everyday Pakistani. The place is delectably appointed creating a very positive vibe. Kashmiri tea, they call it different is a must try if your here for the first time or have never tried it before. Owners have put in a great effort and I wish them all the success.

We began the first day of our vacation on a bad not with the locations either being partially open or not open at all. Lunch wasn’t that great either. Somehow we went to Wadsworth falls and had fun. After finished enjoy our time at the falls, we were hungry to another level. You see this level being famished is something else and when we are famished, we always look for @desi.food and viola we found a gem! A recently opened Pakistani restaurant that serves traditional desi-pakistani food at its best! You would not believe the owners are down to earth kinda people.

Went here for dinner on recommendations of a friend. My group and I were not at all acquainted w/ Pakistani food and made our menu selections on a “well, this sounds good!” basis…we were not disappointed. Everything we had was good; some of our selections included the lamb korma, chicken handi, the tawa naan, and the beef kababs. The food was excellent w/ just amount of spice! The owners were both very friendly, and they were patient with us while we figured out the menu. Highly, highly recommend Nina’s to anyone looking to try Pakistani cuisine or just looking for a good meal in general. The storefront is rather small so I’d recommend take-out for larger groups, but credit to both the owners for how well they make the space work.

Fantastic and authentic food! Everything we ordered was fresh and delicious. The chapli and shami kababs are real stand-outs, probably the best I’ve ever had.
