" This restaurant has a lovely atmosphere, perfect for dining in or taking out. The chapli kebabs are the best I've had outside of Pakistan! However, the biryani was a bit different but still delicious. The portions were decent, but be careful with your spice level as they can make it quite hot if you're not careful. Overall, great food and friendly staff. " (*Curated Review*)

" The Gulzaar experience was memorable! I hosted a small gathering and ordered their catering service. Everything from the biryani to the desserts was a hit with my guests. The owner was very accommodating with dietary needs, and food presentation was lovely. I will definitely use their services again. Highly recommend for any gatherings! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had some reservations before coming due to mixed reviews, but I found Gulzaar to be a delightful place! The food was fresh and tasty, especially the babaghanoush and chicken samosas. It wasn't too spicy, which I appreciated. The plan is to return with family soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Gulzaar has delicious options but sometimes feels a bit inconsistent in timing. The food is fresh, and I appreciate the use of spices. I ordered kabobs, and they were juicy and flavorful. I hope they handle the queue better next time. But it's totally worth it! Overall, I've enjoyed every meal I've had there. " (*Curated Review*)

" Gulzaar is the real deal! I've sampled a variety of dishes, including the chicken samosas and kebabs, and they are all tasty. While I wish they had more traditional options, I appreciate their fusion creations. The service always makes me feel welcome. Don't forget to try the baklava! It's a delightful treat! Best to go early as it gets crowded! " (*Curated Review*)

" The flavors at Gulzaar are incredible! I had their famous rice pudding which was delicious and also tried the kanafeh. Both desserts were a perfect way to end the meal. However, the kebabs were slightly oily for my taste, but they had nice spices. The service was friendly, but there were slight delays due to a busy environment. Overall, it was a great experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Great experience overall! The food at Gulzaar feels handmade with fresh ingredients, and you can taste the difference. Their kebabs and piping hot naan were a highlight! The staff was friendly, and the owner's hospitality made my meal even better. " (*Curated Review*)
