I've been coming to this place for well over ten years, since the time before they moved to their current location. The food has always been rather good, which in the end is really what matters. I've had better food from the cuisine of the Indian subcontinent but then then I paid quite a bit more for that privilege. I think the place's big selling point is the fact that many of my fellow diners are Pakistanis or Indian Muslims. Go where the locals eat has always been a good rule of thumb when choosing to eat Indian or Pakistani food. I'm particularly fond of their lamb/mutton/goat curry, depending upon which item they have on the buffet. And their garlic nan is really good. It's usually quite thick and substantial, which is good because I'm not fond of thin nan. The service has always been pretty decent. Because this is a Pakistani establishment, it's operated by Muslims and sometimes you can hear a call to prayer on a music system in the background. That's never been a problem for me and it adds authenticity to the place. Before the pandemic, the place often hosted small parties in the back of the dining room, which they would then partition off for privacy. It made the restaurant rather loud at times but it never bothered me. The dining room is usually clean and tidy. And the owner, whose name I have never learned, has long recognized me and often greets me in a very friendly manner.
A couple words of warning: First, f you do not like spicy food do not eat off the buffet; order off the menu instead. The curries have always had a kick to them, not so much that a lassi of some kind has ever been necessary for me to quench the fire on my tongue, but just spicy enough that I can enjoy the sensation. Second, while the place advertises that it serves Chinese food, it's not very authentic. Frankly, if I want good Chinese food I will go to a place run by Chinese people as they seem to be the people who best know how to prepare it, just as much as if I want good Indian or Pakistani food, I'll go to a restaurant run by people of those ethnicities.
In short, this is a favorite eatery of mine and I highly recommend it. I regularly come here for lunch with a co-worker at least...

A Pakistani Buffet Extravaganza
A Flavorful Journey Through Pakistan I recently had the pleasure of indulging in a Pakistani buffet that was an absolute culinary delight. The moment I stepped in, I was greeted by an array of tantalizing aromas that filled the air. The buffet spread was nothing short of impressive, offering a diverse selection of dishes to satisfy every palate.
The star of the show was undoubtedly the tender and juicy biryanis, both chicken and vegetable, bursting with aromatic spices. The rich and creamy curries, such as the butter chicken and the lamb korma, were simply divine. The perfectly cooked naan, hot and fresh from the tandoor, was the ideal accompaniment to these flavorful dishes. (YOU cannot stop eating more and more naan (BOTH Garlic and Dry).
For those who enjoy a bit of heat, the spicy vindaloo and the fiery chicken tikka masala offered a thrilling taste sensation. And let's not forget the refreshing raita and chutney that perfectly balanced the flavors.
The dessert section was equally impressive, with a variety of sweet treats to choose from.
The service was impeccable, with the staff going above and beyond to ensure a pleasant dining experience. The restaurant's ambiance was warm and inviting, creating a perfect setting to savor the delicious food.
Overall, my experience at the Pakistani buffet was truly exceptional. It was a culinary journey that transported me to the vibrant streets of Pakistan. I highly recommend this buffet to anyone who appreciates authentic and flavorful cuisine.
Furthermore, the pricing for buffet lunch versus buffet dinner was a mere ONE dollar difference.
ONE MORE thing:
While we were dining, FIFTEEN (15) adults came in with at least TEN (10) kids. The buffet was constantly refilled without YOU ever feel any shortage.

Read moreI recently had an unfortunate experience ordering food through DoorDash from Kebab Corner. My order was incorrectly fulfilled, and when I reached out for assistance, the response was far from satisfactory. Despite claims from the store that they attempted to contact me regarding an issue with my original order, I received no such communication. Consequently, without my consent or any prior notification, my order was substituted with something entirely different.
Upon addressing this issue with both DoorDash and the store, I was offered a nominal refund of $1, which does not nearly compensate for the inconvenience and dissatisfaction experienced. This lack of meaningful resolution and disregard for customer satisfaction has left a sour taste.
It’s disappointing to see a lack of accountability from both DoorDash and Kebab Corner. I had expected better customer service, transparency, and a more reasonable solution to the mistake. Unfortunately, this experience has significantly diminished my trust and likelihood of using DoorDash and patronizing Kebab Corner in the future. I hope this feedback prompts a reconsideration of customer service policies and practices to improve the...
