1071 Danforth Rd, Scarborough, ON M1J 2C7, Canada
Family owned and operated Pakistani/Indian Halal food serving the GTA since 2003
Ghareeb Nawaz is a cozy spot with amazing food. We loved the chicken gravy and fried rice! The owner, an elderly uncle, was incredibly kind and even treated us to complimentary chai. His warm hospitality made the experience truly memorable. Highly recommend!
Bought their Chicken Tikka Biryani and the Beef Frontier Biryani. Food was ok. Meat was tender but I wished for more masala in them. Pricing was ok compared to their portion.
Today I bought a samosa from them and I couldn't eat it because it looked very stale. The samosa was very bad smell and very sour. It was okay I also bought biryani from them and the meat inside was too hard to eat. I think the meat that has been in the Freezer for a long time has been served hot. So I will never buy food from their restaurant again.
Ordered beef Biriani over the phone looking at their online menu for pickup. Here are the three (3) things wrong listed from most server to the least... 1. Found a shred of GLASS (I'm holding it in the picture) in my food. This could have been TERRIBLE if I swallowed as it was SHARP and would cause INTERNAL BLEEDING. If I report this to the food safety department they will be fined SEVERELY. 2. My beef Biriani had CHICKEN pieces. I DO NOT EAT CHICKEN AT ALL. If you're concerned about CROSS CONTAMINATION, this is not your go to place. 3. Their website's prices are INCORRECT! They charge you more when you pay and then blame the taxes.
I took biryani from there 1 year ago and that was so good also they putted big cubes of paneer but today i eat biryani from there which was worst including uncooked rice,small stones in rice,no paneer i dont know how they created a big difference in quality within span of a short period
The service here was phenomenal. They gave us extra rice and we're very kind. The food was super good, just reliable tasty and spicy. Would definitely go again. My kids loved the samosas!
I got the chicken tikka biryani boneless last night from them and I can tell you it was the worst biryani I have ever had in my life. I have no idea what it tasted like but it definitely was not biryani. The whole box looked like magenta food coloring. Waste of money
Stopped by randomly for a quick dinner and found this dish Ive never heard of: “Fried Rice Chicken Biryani”. It tasted pretty good! My tastebuds were confused by this combo but I really liked it! :)
Best halwa puri 10/10
Amazing service and hospitality by Rashmi . Great rates and amazing food quality.
Ghareeb Nawaz is a gem! Rashmi at the front counter is welcoming, while owner Muneer is really kind. The food and the flavors are truly authentic. A perfect spot for delicious, heartwarming food!
Their masala tea was excellent.
Good spot for a satisfying Chai
Excellent customer service. Respect for the owner. Food : 5/5
Chai was amazing, owner is very friendly and hospitable.
Food was good but they charged $18 just as a tax
I recently dined at GHAREEB NAWAZ and had an exceptional experience. The food was flavorful and beautifully presented, with standout dishes like. The staff provided attentive service. The cozy and elegant ambiance enhanced the dining experience, making it perfect for a special occasion. The quality justifies the cost. Overall, this restaurant delivers a memorable experience, and I highly recommend it.
The ambiance of the restaurant is warm and inviting, making it a great spot for both casual meals and special occasions. The staff were friendly and attentive, ensuring our needs were met promptly.
Best and affordable place to visit
Best place in scarbrough, best food in cheaper price. The taste is good and very pleasant customer service
I visit there whenever i feel hungry becausetheir food is so good One more thing i like it is their staff is so good thats why i love to go there Food
The mutton biriyani was really good. The meat is soft and quantity is really good too. Surely recommend the mutton biriyani
Food is good, if you can get it. They are always for the last 2 months out of stock and they frankly dont care about loyal customers at all. Shame on them
In this restaurant, the biryani is best and each food is best its clean and neat but the only think is not good the female staff they misbehave and not talking properly with the customer ypu have ti teach you female staff how to treat the customer
Ghareeb Nawaz Sahibs Ghareeb Nawaz is a symbol of his good and noble nature. The love and mercy of Moses are the basic message of his life. We pray that sir always stay blessed.
Loved the food! Biryani was absolutely the best
Chicken Biryani
Wonderful experience every time here. Food is tasty and always fresh. The owner is really sweet and generous, he offered me a complimentary parantha and rice on the house with my meal. Highly recommend! Dietary restrictions: It s halal :) Parking: Parking isn t the greatest, expect to park in nearby side road if parking lot is full.
Had tea and chicken samosa it was really nice samosa filling was very nice
My husband and I ordered chicken karahi and plain paratha. We took the food home and with great expectation opened those. We never ever had such worst karahi in our life. It tastes sour, smells sour, very few small pieces of chicken (about half inch to 1 inch size) that were grilled. Full of tomatoes, tomato paste and yogurt. Paratha is like a roti. No oil put to fry it. I will recommend not to go to the restaurant.
Had chicken biryani today at this restaurant. Very delicious and tea was good too. Recommended
Amazing biryanis and butter chicken in Scarborough come and enjoy
One of the best place to try all kind of rolls specially their Chicken Boti Roll and Chapli Kabab Roll are must try. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking an unforgettable yummy rolls. Pratap - Mumbai India
OMG, they have a THE BEST BIRYANI .(chicken tikka biryani
Best chicken boti roll, and biryani and chai best restaurant
It s grate taste same as before
Usually their Biryani was good as I was already buying it, but this time while I bought a big tray of Biryani, it was old from a day and rice was not cooked properly made me sick. Please check the quality of rice before buying big trays.
Convenient location at Eglinton/Midland/Danforth Rd. intersection. Parking is limited, Takeout is the best way to enjoy their meals. We really enjoy the biriyani, great price for Biriyani platter. We have been back several times, and would recommend trying their specials.
To be honest I only like the chicken roll from there but they keep changing the chef and the recipe unfortunately changed The prices are going ridiculously high As well
Great
Very good biryani here best in Scarborough cheap food
Didnt get the order right, hand to brain coordination was foggy. Dirty plates were given! Overall horrendous experience. Biryani was alright tho. No ac and hot af
Great food ,good behavior and service.
Best Hyderabad biryani in Scarborough! We will be back
I love the food. Tasty. Great customer service too.
Excellent hospitality
Great food, reasonably priced, great service
Very good restaurant
Had a great time here after tanning in woodbine beach. The food is so delicious especially their chicken samosas and biryani. Must try
Gareeb Nawaz Biryani offers the best biryani in town, hands down. The spices are perfectly balanced, creating a flavorful experience that leaves you wanting more with each bite. If you find yourself in Scarborough, this is a must-try culinary gem. Dont miss out on the opportunity to indulge in their delicious biryani!
love it best biryani in town try the wraps really good aswell Food
Poor response over phone, avoid bulk orders
It was a great experience having food here, and it is halal, you can try.
We ordered chicken fried rice and it was too delicious. Fast service and positive aura. The owner is too amiable .
Very good food at reasonable prices. And excellent customer service by Rashmi
One of the BEST biriyani in the town. Great personality from the customer service. I will visit again and recommend it to anyone who loves authentic Biriyani.
Very good taste and every dishes delicious
best biryani scarbourgh super plz try bounless kiryani ohh super
Good to take food from here . Delicious biryani and Tikka boti.
The biryani is so so good and the owner is so nice, we had an order for 30 people and it was good in terms of quality and quantity
Have been enjoying consistently delicious food from Ghareeb for many, many years, since I used to go there with my Father for takeout. The owner & son are very kind & courteous. Favourite meals: ALL Biryanis (!), Channa/Chick Pea Curry, Chicken Boti, Chicken Samosas, Butter Chicken, & Beef Chapli Kebab which I tried for the first time today through Skip the Dishes. Many more dishes to try, but I have bad habit of sticking to favourites! Mango Shake & Masala Chai are lovely!
Biryani is really delicious.
Had high hopes after seeing the reviews and ordered Chicken Tikka Wrap but it did not meet up to my expectations as the paratha and chicken was not fresh and seemed as it was made and served from the previous day.
BBQ biryani was good. Their speciality is biryani so try to stick with it. Paratha roll was not that impressive. Overall very good food and service.
Yummy Food!
Amazing food, lovely people! The combination of delicious flavours served with warm smiles and welcoming hospitality truly enhances the experience. Strongly recommended.
Got the takeaway chicken biriyani for 7.97$,it was one of the best biriyanis I ever had, great price and the portions is also soo large, its more than enough for a single person. The owner is also so nice and sweet. If u wann try authentic biriyani taste I recommend this place.
very good food
Incredibly good food, very nice staff, and good price!
Chai is the best :)
Great Food and service.
Amazing food and amazingly warm people .
Biryani, you will have to replace the butter in the butter and then it will be sold.
I was completely amazed by the service, hospitality, and the amazing Hyderabadi biryani prepared by Muneer uncle! Hes genuinely the sweetest and most generous person ever! My wife drove all the way from Mississauga to pick up the biryani, and we couldnt have asked for better service or food. Muneer uncle and his team have such big hearts and make food that just wins over your heart. I cant recommend trying this out enough; itll definitely leave you with a huge smile! Were absolutely planning to come back again.
I have tried the Chiken Boti roll and the chiken Tikka biryani here. The biryani was amazing and was flavourful with marinated chicken. It was a bit oily for me. The chicken boti roll was also simple yet tasty. Just a suggestion to add more of the sauce inside. The best thing about this place is their staff. They are so kind and their hospitality is top notch. Its a takeout place so if you are in a group dont plan to eat it over there.
This shop owner is very sweet Food
Food tastes good, and the atmosphere is good clean place
Ate chicken fried rice briyani, it was awesome and chicken is very fresh One of the best food in local spots Their masala tea was very good after a meal
Their fried chicken biryani is the best Parking: Easy parking Food : 5/5 |
Very good experience with food and the owner is a very humble down to earth person. 100/100 recommended. Food
Nice people working here 10/10 customer service and the food is amazing would recommend
These guys need a promotion because tha way I m feeling rn after eating you won t understand till u try it Vegetarian options: They do you good with tha potatoes
After 5 years of ordering with this restaurant I will never be doing it ever again all this over Missing food item I was lied to by the person taking the order Rayyan saying I m lying about not receiving it pretty disappointed with customer service will not be coming back ever also will be advising families and friends not to waste your time!!!
Had Biryani. Good Taste
The quality and taste of the food were indeed authentic.
Food is super tasty and owner is very nice and generous! I had the chicken biryani. I highly recommend this place you will not be disappointed !
One of the best biryanis in the GTA
very affordable and amazing food. Liked the service and atmosphere Food
Great biryani, very flavourful and tasteful, I recommend trying the chicken tikka biryani, the chicken was really fresh and the amount of masala in the biryani was also perfect. They gave us extra raita for the biryani as well and the service was also great. Mr. Munir, was really helpful and sweet, felt like home
The best biryani restaurant I really enjoyed good amount of quantity in affordable price
ordered some biryani, channa with paratha and chicken samosas, and was very happy with the quality of the food! keep it up! both the meat and vegetarian options were satisfying!
I used to go here alot when I lived in Scarborough. I happened to be visiting, and I decided to go to Ghareeb Nawaz after a few years. The food is just as good as it was a few years ago! I was able to call and place an order. I ordered the Dum Biryani, Channa Masala and their mango madness drink (basically mango lassi with ice cream and whipped cream. It was sooo good!). All the food was delicious; it was definitely worth the 40 minute drive on my part. Honestly, you can order anything from here and the food would be good. The prices are unbeatable, and the service was fantastic. The gentleman who took my call was patient and kind. The service was fast as well. On a side note, if you are calling to place an order, let them know when youll reach just because the store does close for a short bit during prayer times.
Best chai and chapli kabob roll we will be back thank you so much!
I love the chicken beryani it always satisfy my cravings...best beryani Ive eaten so far.highly recommended resto ... Vegetarian options: The options are great Parking: The parking is okay no hassles n free
Absolutely disgusting food! DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS PLACE! I ordered beef biryani, and I got tomatoe rice. AND the most atrocious thing was that I found chicken in my beef biryani. These people must have removed the chicken and added beef pieces. I was so shocked to see this.
Amazing Biryani, one of the best in GTA.
Very good food and price fair too
I eat the biryani it s fabulous with the rates,quality ,and quantity . Taste is amazing
Best Biryani in Toronto, reasonable price, and received great customer service every time I have been there!!
One the most amazing biryani I had in GTA
The chicken boti roll, and the chapli kabab roll was outstanding the parathas were super fresh
Awesome biryani and chai! Both quality and taste of biryani was great! Enough for more than one person! Extra ordinary chai! Loved everything. I will be back! Keep it up.
One of the best and affordable take out restaurant. We re going to this place from last 5 years. Must try Food
Love this place, been going here with my family 3+ years, wonderful food thank you so much
The Chicken Briyani is amazing and the service is great, and the employee are really respectful and friendly Parking: Always free parking and lots of empty spots Kid-friendliness: Really nice employees
Tasty food and excellent service, definitely I ll visit again.
Had best biryani
I like their chicken Biryani but it is not the best one. Shrinkflation is at work. The serving is now getting Smaller. They dont clean the floor. It is sticky.
Ordered Dum biryani and chicken paratha Roll. Both had a decent taste and prices was also reasonable. Place could be little bit more cleaner. My advise to the owner to make the place little cleaner and vibrant.
Best biryani I have ever had in my life!! The owner is extremely kind and welcoming. Felt like we were guests at his home . Will be coming back as a regular :)
Food was really delicious and the staffs were so nice and friendly
One of the best biryani I ever had best food along with best staff service. Kid-friendliness: Staff were very sweet Food : 5/5 |
I tried dum chicken briyani , I would say best biryani i have ever tried. I would strongly recommend to try out at this restaurant.
Best chicken biryani in Scarborough loved the taste and amazing customer service.

One of best biriyani you can get in this area. Authentic biryani place. Staff is also friendly and service is fast. Food

The best biryani I ve ever had
I like chana masalah.and Roti.very taste ful .
The food is awesome and the staff behaviour is very good.
One of the best biryanis in town
One of the best types of biryani I tried in Toronto, and the waiters were friendly. I recommend trying it.
Ive been going to Ghareeb Nawaz Restaurant Halal Restaurant for awhile now where you are always welcome with a smile and the food is absolutely delicious. They do have amazing spice mouthwatering biryanni.
One of the best biryani i had so far .. it was great to have such delicious food after so long (mouthwatering ). Highly recommended
Firstly, its a takeout place. However, you get a two-seater bench if you want a sit-out. Dont expect any amenities other than plates, spoons and tissues. Compared with Hyderabad biryani, this would be much less spicy and subtle in flavour. Ask Spicy to feel some kick. I was a bit disappointed as the rice flavour was plainer and didnt take the chicken or biryani spices or masala flavour. Overall, its a decent Pakistani-style biryani.
Spectacular
Very good biryani I will be back on Monday! If you like biryani is the place!
Best biryani ever!
I wanted to express my heartfelt gratitude for the incredibly warm welcome I received during my recent visit to your restaurant. The tea and food were not only delicious but also a testament to your dedication to culinary excellence. Your generosity in not accepting payment truly touched my heart. Thank you for creating such a welcoming and memorable experience.
What can I say I am speechless The best Chicken tikka biryani I have had since long time And the chicken wrap with garlic sauce was the best The owner surprised us by giving complementary dessert as well (Gulabjamun)
Best Biriyani in Scarborough.large quantity with so much flavour.
Very good Biryani and mango shake. Very good and kind service . Our experience was very good here. They treated us with the outmost respect and kindness.
Best Biryani on the area with heart warming customer service so far !!! Wish to see more progress and better service on the way....
Good food
I recently visited this restaurant and I have to say I was blown away! The ambiance was cozy and inviting, the service was attentive and friendly and the food was absolutely delicious. From the appetizers to the mains, everything was cooked to perfection with the perfect balance of flavors. I particularly loved the chicken tikka biryani (boneless). The portions were hearty and satisfying, and there were plenty of options available as well. Overall, I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great take out & catering experience. I can t wait to come back and try more of the menu!
First time customer. Highly recommend as great food with very reasonable price. Also staff is friendly. Will definitely come back
The best Chai I have had. The spices and tastes take you back to the place of origin. The service is superb. Would be nice to see more tables and chairs and more ambience for those who want to eat in.
The owner was a gentleman, gave us some good recommendations. The Biryani is one of the best I have had in Canada. Recommended dishes
Excellent customer service and flavorful dishes. I came here with my family for dinner and the staff was super helpful when making recommendations. The food did not disappoint and the chai was the best Ive had!
Barayni is the best here

chicken biryani, you should definitely try here and the best thing is tea. It was too good, if you are a tea lover you would love it.
Ghareev Nawaz is an absolute gem in the world of culinary experiences! Their biryani is nothing short of a masterpiece. The flavors are an exquisite blend of aromatic spices that dance on your taste buds, leaving you craving for more. The tender, succulent pieces of meat or vegetables are generously scattered throughout the fragrant rice, creating a symphony of taste and texture. The portion size is generous, and the price is reasonable, making it a delightful treat for the palate and the wallet. Coupled with the warm, welcoming ambiance and friendly staff, dining at Ghareev Nawaz is an unforgettable experience for any biryani enthusiast.

Amazing food and service! Authentic taste, tried biryani, rolls and chai.
Extremely good food with service
The meal was delicious, and the service was impressively quick. I thoroughly enjoyed the food.
I visited this store for food yesterday(sunday). Food was really awesome. I ordered chicken tikka biryani and chicken botu paratha. Both food was really tasty .
Few days back i just randomly went to this place to try their food! I actually did a good thing- the food was so good. Tried chicken biryani and boti kabab roll as suggested by the guy who was at the counter. The taste and quantity was exceptional. Their biryani is lajawaab!! I would definitely visit this place again to try other items on the menu. Highly recommend
The Ghareeb Nawaz resturant served a delicious food with brilliant staf and they are very humble

The owner is very customer friendly, and the quantity of the food is good enough for two people.
The owner was very good. The food quantity is very good with the price money.
Big shout out to Umair and team!! We had a death in my family and needed food quickly, Umair came through and made us some fresh piping hot biriyani. Everyone truly loved it and the price for the quantity was just right. The service and the presentation of the food was on point. Thanks to Umair and Ghareeb Nawaz.
If you love and live Biryani! Ghareeb Nawaz serves flavorful biryani with tender meat with lots of love towards customers.

Best biryani in Scarborough
Delicious quality food, Nice work and Thanks for the hospitality brothers!
May Allah bless the owner and increase him in all good. Amazing food and always hospitable.
Authentic Pakistani flavour
Mutton Biryani, Chicken Dum biryani and Chicken Tikka biryani are proper with authentic taste and masala not just white rice unlike other places. Omair (owner) is very humble and welcoming. Highly recommended if looking for real Indian biryani in Scarborough.
The biriyani was good. Taste was balanced. Recommend this restaurant.
Its my favorite place to buy baryani since 2015..its cheap but food is taste good..
Great place for some good authentic Pakistani food! Only place with good parhata rolls in Toronto.
The food really good
Everything is perfect, one of the best biriani I ever had the test is authentic, freshly made samosas was my favourite I would highly recommend it. And the service was absolutely fantastic.
Best Biryani
Excellent chicken dum biryani and mutton Biryani at good prices
After reading all the reviews, I order boneless chicken Biryani. Instead of chunky pieces it of chicken had shredded chicken and had weird flavor very disappointing! Also, chicken curry portion size was very small! First and the last time Ive ordered from here. Food
Highly recommend chicken Biryani .
