★★★★★  Its been a ritual for me for the last 7 years. Whenever I visit Toronto, I always come to this place and order one and only one thing: ** Sheikh Kabab Roll **. Haven't seen anything like this anywhere nearby. Now my wife is also addicted to this thing.

★★★★  Food is great however serious customer service problem. This is typical of Pakistani restaurants, they need to improve significantly in their service.

★★★★  Lol at 'biryani-nazi'!
Can't go wrong with their food. It's pretty much the standard at most desi households/dawats.

★★★★★  The food is great and it's the only reason I keep coming.
The service from the men there is ABSOLUTELY HORRENDOUS. God forbid should they ever crack a smile or be pleased that you're a paying customer! What the hell is their problem!? Sometimes I hate going there just to see their bitter looking faces. Honestly! 1 time out of 10, they'll say 'thank you' when you finish paying and leave. Its like they want you to pay and get the hell out. They're the 'biryani nazi' lol
I hope they read this, especially the men there.
What really pisses me off is that they give away free quran and lectures and have ayah's all over, yet the way they treat people gives this really cold and unfriendly image of Islam which does dis'service to Islam and Muslims!!! I hope they all read this and re-think their attitude.

★★★★★  Great food, clean and relatively newish place, food isn't greasy and is cooked well.

This is a take-out-only place.

Love their chicken and lamb biriyanis. Kabab rolls are also very good!

★★★★  I will agree that since their renovations, it's a much more pleasant place to order your take-out. The food is tried and tested and has passed my taste test. On a side note, I think it's silly and inefficient to have 10 plasma TVs displaying static images of the menu.

★★★★★  Looks like they have been reading all the bad reviews on Zabihah and have improved... Its only a take out place now and it looks very clean and modern. In my opinion it's one of the best take out places in Scarborough, try the fish pakoras and of course the chicken biryani is one of the best. I'm a regular here now.

★★★★  I only go to the take-out location and have been going there for several years. The service is great, prices are great, food is great.

Also, if you have any complains about your food, tell them, because they will exchange your item.

★★★  I guess they are not certain about their recipe because i always find different versions of it everytime I go there. I only keep going because out of the three versions ive tasted, theres one i really liked so i go in the hopes of getting it again. When their kababs are hot, they taste lovely but most of the time it tastes cold and rubbery so if you can get them to make it fresh, you will love it

★★★  I recently ordered food from their catering service and was disappointed when I came home to find out that they gave me packaged pitas instead of freshly baked naans. I had no choice, but to heat the pita's while my guests waited for the food. When I called they quickly told me that with the package deal you don't get fresh naans, but these bagged pita's instead and if I wanted the tandor naans, then that would be extra. I would have rather paid the extra money if I had known, but I wasn't told. If you're ordering catered food, it is assumed that the food would be freshly made, no!? I also found that one of the pita's in the package had mould on it. When I called back, I was told that it wasn't them that made it. So I just wasn't satisfied with that part of the service. I also asked for the food not to be too spicy for the kids that were attending my home, but they didn't bother with my request. Other than that, the food wasn't bad, but I don't think I will be ordering from them again.

★★★  Over the last few months, the place looks cleaner. I have always done take out and the service can be sporadic--even for take out. However, the food is good. The haleem in particular was excellent.

★★★★★  If you dont mind the small store, the Biryani is exceptional. Its good for take out. They give good portions too.

  Two week back, i went to this resturant after heard about them. they are over prized, low quality food, and oh god their refrigrator make hell of noice. and dont do anthing anout it

★★★★  I prefer the take out place on Sheppard ave and so far I have found their Biryani the best itom on their menu. On weekends, they have lamb biryani, which is probably the best I have eaten anywhere (Gharib Nawaz' is a close second), mildly spiced and aromotic. Trouble is that they sell out fast. I have not understood the business acumen of this approach - why not make more, and make it more often if it is such a hot item?
The tikkas are in the zone, but it is the biryani and the Gajrella (carrot halwa)that takes me to silver spoon. I have tried their haleem and their Karahi and would rank it slightly above average. Their naan's are good if eated fresh and tend to become stiff and rubbery after an hour or so.
Now, service is something that leaves a lot to be desired as well as aspects of cleanliness. Silverspoon should come of age and take an example from Babu's right across from them. Babu's is organized, always well staffed, quick and expedient to serve and they are very clean - but their biryani is totally different to Silverspoon.
If you cater from Silverspoon for a largish event, they do a really good job on the dishes. Certainly, silverspoons fills a much needed demand for good and cheap biryani. I do not find their otheritems to be as resonably priced with the exception of the gajrella.

★★★★★  Great family atmosphere, and friendly service. We enjoyed our time there. The catering was very impressive. I just got them to cater for my sister's wedding. I highly recommend it. Also the quality and quantity of their food is great.

United States
★★★  The food here is really good, however the venue needs some help. If they just put as much care into the cleaniness and decor of the restaurnant like they do their food it would be one awesome place

United States
★★★★★  alot better food then other resturant in toronto

United States
★★★★  food is good but need some attantion in customer service they should serve fast

  I did the terrible mistake of ordering from their catering branch. The people who claimed that they serve old food are on the bulls eyes. Not only is it old food, but its over priced, and they have commited mistakes on my orders more than three times.

United States
★★★★  One of the best Chicken Biryani's in GTA. Reshmi Kababs are also finger licking. Markham/Shppard (Takeout only) branch.

United States
★★★  needs more cleanliness

United States
  The food is very poor quality. They are not interested in the customers but rather the bottom line. Once the food was good and the service crap, but now both the food and the service is very poor. * one star out of five.

United States
★★  This establishment used to be much more quality oriented. Now you can tell that the food is microwaved most of the time.
The Fish Poos is the only decent dish they have.

United States
★★  YUK!

  This place has a long history of health infractions. We found this out when we tried to use them as caterers. The stuff that's gone on there, is quite disgusting. Subhanallah, CLEANLINESS IS A PART OF IMAN.

United States
★★★★  Chicken biryani is the best! Highly recommended.
We always have takout so haven't seen the back of the place!!!

United States

★★★★  I had a chance to eat there in Sep, 2003. I must say I didn't find any thing to complain. Service was ok but can be improved. Biryani was a home run. I did order Nihari as a take out for my friend, he wasn't too much impressed. However, you did find a touch of home once you get to know the people who are running. All in all not a bad joint.

  Do not eat here. I was shocked when I once ordered Nihari. I was able to get a glimpse of teh kitchen through an open window as they prepared my 'meal'. They pulled out this dirty huge plastic container from the freezer. Scooped out a few scoops of 'nihari' as if it were ice cream. Placed it in a frying pan and proceeded to 'cook' (melt) it. I was tempted to leave the restaurant right there and then. I believe it was left over nihari from last "Baq'r Eid". I hope they clean up their act soon. I wish there was an option less than "very poor". Perhaps health inspectors should pay them a visit.

United States
★★★★★  Silver Spoon catered my sister's wedding and did an excellent job. We booked them again for my own. Perhaps not the best choice for vegetarians as the selection of veggie dishes is limited.

★★★  Not much variety in the buffet. Taste was ok.

United States
★★  "This place is ok...ive bought biryani once (takeout) and it smelled fuuny, this place is only good if you are catorring for a large party"

★★★  Too Spicy and greasy. The curries and gravies are covered by a one inch thick layer of oil. Service is inconsistent as people mostly eat the buffet.

United States
★★★  "The food is really good for catering only.otherwise for dine-in its just the waste of money,because the food is not fresh & place doesn't worth it.The food could be fine if they serve it fresh."

United States
★★  "Last time I bought takeout Biryani it smelled bad, I opend it and it seemed as if it was old food, i've ate there before in the resteraunt, and its okay. Not an amazing place to go, but its ok."

United States
  Place was like a zoo, I almost stepped on a child, the tables were filthy and everything was clustered. Service was horrible and food was just ok. I would never go back even if it were the last restarurant in the world. Please dont take your wife there, they stare at women. As always my reviews are 100% honest like me.

★★★★★  The foot long kebobs are excellent. Plenty of meat for meat-lovers. Their biryani is also very tasty.

★★★★  "A newly opened restaurant, variety of dishes were available for eat-in and take-out. The take out has another shop counter in the neighbouring store, this keeps the place quite for dine-in."
