The most delicious DESI BUFFET in town.
One of my friend recently recommended me to visit this place so I did and trust me this was the best decision I made.
I enjoyed every bit of it. Loved the ambiance and the food.
They BBQ, haleem, nehari, Salads and countless dessert options are phenomenal. The afghani roti/naan was so soft like I never had anywhere in dubai. I didnt find their chinese dishes sections that delicious but that’s totally okay coz this place isnt for chinese food at all. You had to tell them in advance for the roti/naan if you need one coz it takes time to make and bring a fresh one on your table.
Another best thing which I liked the most is that guys are standing in the buffer section will ask you no matter how many times you go their to put on your masks and what you wanna eat and then they will take the plates and serve you as much as you like. In this way you dont put more than you eat and they creates a less food wastage.
The only place they need to focus is their restrooms. No maintenance was there and tissue box was empty.
Ambiance : 10/10
Social Distancing measurements: 10/10
Food : 11/10
Service : 9/10
Over all a must must visit if you’re a heavy desi food lover.

The restaurant was very clean, tables and cutlery neatly layout. Order was taken promptly and the food arrive piping hot and the drinks were extremely cold. Both the chicken handi and the biryani tasted excellent with the correct spices. Staff were polite and courteous. Excellent team work.

Thanks to Zomato and the various competitions that they have in collaboration with all their partners on social media platforms, I won a 100 dhs voucher.
To make the most of the voucher, four of us decide to go for dinner on a Wednesday evening at the Al Wasl branch close to Ghazal mall. Ample paid parking available right outside the restaurant which is always a plus point.
When you enter the place and you realise wow what a huge place!!! From the outside you would never imagine that how big this place is. We were amazed at the sheer size of the place. The restaurant was also neat and clean as one would expect during these times.
They have an extensive menu and the variety of food is wide-ranging. Eventually we ordered a family meal along with two biryani, chicken and mutton, but i must say the best was their afghani naan, so soft and fresh. Kebabs were tender and succulent. Biryani was tasty and had the right amount of spices. Gulab Jamun was just perfect for us. The food portions are quite large, a take away had to be done.
Food always tastes better and is more fun to have when you sit down and share it with your loved ones. Thank you to Nayaab Handi and Zomato for picking me as one of the winners in your competition. I would definitely come back again. I recommend everyone to give it a try at least once.

I normally order delivery from Nayaab Barsha location. The food is consistent and service excellent. Today I made the tragic mistake of bringing my family to the Satwa/Juneira location. The service was extremely slow, the Mutton and Chicken Haandi were cold, bland and meat very firm so opposite of tender !! Deal was serviced cold and looked like cement. Really disappointed as I was looking forward to sit down and enjoy and nice hot meal. Its really to bad that they have not been consistent. Did I mention the service was extremely bad? Oh and the mutton chops were uncooked and crunchy. Yuck!

Sharing my experience as posted on Zomato and Google :)
Dear Nayaab Haandi, if I could rate you a 100/100 I would absolutely do that.
it was my first time in Dubai and after seeing and hearing such rave reviews about you, I stepped inside to try your amazing food.
Must say I was not disappointed at all. In fact for a very picky eater like me when it comes to non veg, I have found a favourite at your place :) your amazing tawa chicken!! :) It has all my heart and I haven't tasted such food ever. MashaAllah!!
and what to say about your service!!! I have only experienced the best and have been charmed by the dedication and level of professionalism your team has shown us when it came to serving us.
We as a family visited your restaurant earlier this month and probably were one of the 2 or 3 other Indian families dining there. When one of my twin son accidentally broke a glass, you were not bothered about us compensating for the loss rather were worried if he had hurt himself. WOW!!!! that gesture of yours really won a fan in us and we cannot stop raving about you! Thank you for having us there and we can't wait to be back soon.
We wish you immense success and may you satiate many more tastebuds and continue with your impeccable service and hospitality :)
P.S:
We wish the al barsha branch learnt some manners and etiquette from you. Have sworn never to step in that branch after the most distasteful experience with them today.

Filthiest place I have ever been to!!! I went to wash my hand before ordering. The toilets were next level dirty.. full of food in the main sinks of female toilet. My dress got spoiled while washing my hand and when I went to the waiter complained to him about the situation. They were least bothered. They had no courtesy to even apologize for the hygiene they had of their toilet.
I'm still at shock been around the world tried so many food cuisines but never seen this sort of negligence and bad costumer service..
I just stood up took my family out of this filthy mess!!

We went there for Blogger Meet and it was such an amazing Buffet experience. Lots of variety in snacks and salads and Dips . We got a big Non veg kababs platter on tables itself and it had amazing spread. Kabab were very nicely done and taste was good ( Although i missed green chutney with kababs) Also i missed some vegetarian Kababs also.
In main course there were lots of non veg items . Biryani was really nice and chicken curry was also good flavored.
In vegetarian section i was expecting more variety of veggies.
For sweet fish there were lots of Varieties. From cakes to Mousse. From kheer to Ras malai. From gulab jamun to Halva. Amazing variety with very appealing presentation. Gajar ka Halva was Best.
Overall good experience. We had amazing time.
Staff was very helpful and taking al precautions in regard to Covid -19. On table service was also good 👌

Value for Money and good quality food only in Nayaab Handi Dubai. It is located in Al Wasl and in Barsha and both i have tried and the food is exact similar and the service in Barsha is fast and the servers are attentive and quick to serve. If you want to try authentic Pakistani Food in low price and best quality then try this restaurant. We ordered Chicken Biryani & BarbQ items with Naan and Lassi & at last Khoya Kulfi which reminds your country, everything was upto the mark and delicious, No Complaints... I would recommend this to everyone who love desi food.

Horrible experience, went there to eat, ordered and waited for dessert, already paid for it. 15 minutes standing on the counter, lots of waiters free still none bothered to bring our dessert, the guy who took the bill had i dont care attitude, in the end when i told him ok m leaving without dessert which i had paid for. He did not even bother to reply back. If you have self respect don't go here.

This is our go to restaurant when craving Pakistani food, and when we have guests visiting from out of town.
Although the buffet is good, I would recommend the a la carte menu, specifically the Chicken Handi, and mix grill platters. The chicken handi is absolutely fantastic!
Ambience at the al wasl location is very nice.
Prices are great value for money.

The chicken biryani is very delicious and its price is 16 dirhams. It is one of the most beautiful biryani I have eaten, and the amount of rice is large and two pieces of chicken are suitable for its price. Do not hesitate to choose it, but if you have children, I recommend that it not be spicy

the food at the buffet was cold the service was poor the staff didn't speak to us and were not welcoming at all. The BBQ was so salty and everything tasted the same. This big naan and a huge BBQ was dumped on our table it was too much. Very overrated and very pricey for below average food. I would not recommend this place if you want good food go to Lal Qila or Giftos.
