What User doesn't like about Nawab Indian Cuisine:
This is the 2nd time in a year that I've been to this Norfolk restaurant (first for lunch and most recently for dinner). Consistently bad on all fronts and I will never go back: (1) abysmally slow service in spite of being practically empty each time (apparently others have voted with their feet also), to the point of finally having to get up to find a server for a drink refill long after entre served for instance, (... View all feedback. What User likes about Nawab Indian Cuisine:
Fairly good food. A good selection of dishes with focus on vegetable dishes. They have the standard tandoori chicken, butter chicken, and a couple of other meat dishes. I've been dining here for years and I always enjoy my meal View all feedback.
