Shaaz
The Specialty

Pakistani restaurant and cafe

Shah's Pakistani Restaurant

The food here is mid and the value is not good — it's pretty overpriced for what you're getting. There are significantly better Pakistani options in the city at better price points.

What to Order

If you're here, stick to the most traditional Pakistani dishes — karahi or a rice dish.

Must Try

I'd honestly point you toward better Pakistani spots first — Lahore Tikka House, Butt Karahi, Karahi Boys.

The Verdict

Hard to recommend when the value is this off and the food doesn't compensate for it. Toronto has exceptional Pakistani food and this isn't the best representation of what the cuisine can be.
