The beef stained my fingers black. Even a manicurist was unable to remove the stains.

I was really excited to try this place, and I would definitely go again. I\\\'ll admit, I went with a group of five, and given our absolutely sky high expectations, we were a bit disappointed. The portions are small, and I think the items are a bit hit or miss. Some are spectacular and completely unique, others are underwhelming (for example, the \\\"Sloppy Khan\\\" mentioned in a below review underwhelmed us as well). But would I go again? Absolutely! This place opened relatively recently, so I imagine they\\\'re still finetuning. But I think you should definitely check this place out for yourself, it\\\'s unique, interesting, and very much worth experiencing.

Amazing food. Probably the best I've had in USA. Presentation was extraordinary and taste was delicious. Atmosphere was outstanding. Best Malai boti and Pani puri. Nihari & Biryani was good too. Unfortunately, I am not from the area. Otherwise, I would be going there on a regular basis.

My experience was a bit underwhelming. Their service and presentation was great, but the food was very ordinary. The appetizer called "Sloppy Khan" was just alright, I couldn't understand why everyone on Yelp is raving about it? I also ordered Beef Kabobs that were burnt to a crisp, dry and the portion size was really small. Nihari however, was plentiful but void of any taste. The naans were good but the "Paratha" was mediocre at best, not hearty or with enough layers that I was expecting from a Paratha... the Naans had more oil/butter on them than the Paratha. The best dish was the humble daal. It was flavorful and had the right mix of spices. Overall the experience was quite poor. For a place where a party of 3 diners can easily spend more than $100 for food, the quality and taste left me very unimpressed.

Average meal, small portions. Took almost an hour after they forgot our order and we just sat there. Nothing to write home about or return for. I expected more from all the hype.

Visited Khan Saab in Fullerton to try their Pakistani food. Since their chicken isn’t hand-slaughtered, we stuck to the beef and lamb dishes. We ordered the pani puri, pomegranate bhel puri, sloppy khan, smoked beef kabobs, Afghani seekh kabob, nihari, beef biryani, bhindi masala, and naan. The food was good overall, everything was well cooked and flavorful, but nothing really stood out enough to make it memorable. Portions were fine, but the prices felt on the higher side for what you get. I’ve had Pakistani food I enjoyed more at places like Kinara in SF, which sets a higher bar in terms of flavor and value. Overall, it was good to try once, but not somewhere I’d go out of my way to return to, even if I was in the area.
