What User likes about Shan-a-punjab:
The food was outstanding, and the baigan bharta was some of the best I've ever had. There were quite a few of us, and while we didn’t feel rushed, we did have to wait a while. The staff was friendly without being intrusive. View all feedback.

What mustafees khan doesn't like about Shan-a-punjab:
Do yourself a favor and just go somewhere else, you won't regret it. The worst biryani I have ever eaten. I placed an order for a Biryani and received something else, I wouldn't call that a Biryani. It was tasteless, flavorless, bland and uncooked meat. I see a lot of folks commenting about this place serving authentic Indian food. I would request such people to kindly try authentic Biryani at places like Bawarchi's,... View all feedback.

I ordered food through Grubhub. The food was cold, naan was not properly cooked, chicken vindaloo was nothing but tomato paste. If I could give zero reviews, I...
