Tabaq

Tabaq Restaurant offers a delightful dining experience. I ordered the tawa qeema (ground beef), and it was absolutely delicious—packed with flavor and perfectly cooked. The tandoori naans were a great complement to the dish, fresh from the oven and wonderfully soft. The portion size was generous, and the price was very reasonable for the quality and quantity of food. I’m definitely looking forward to returning for more! Highly recommended

First time here. Had heard good reviews. Run solely by women Nihari was too good and it did not have the packet wala taste so there’s that. Could do better with the halwa puri nashta like improve the chola and the chai it was too milky for my taste. Other than that don’t expect a fancy cafeteria. Imagine sitting at a lahori dhaba. That’s the ambiance they are going for. If you’re in the area from the time 10am-2pm I would recommend getting desi nashta. But only if you’re in the area. It’s not worth the trek.

Good is good but I order for 16 people and they only gave for 8 people. When you order and pick up you don’t know how much they are giving. They are ripping people off. I rather pay more and get more food. Never going back.

This is a restaurant in a small food court, in the Newin Centre. The food is hot and delicious. My favorite is their Channa Bhatura. The Channa is Pindi-style and absolutely delicious! It is one possibly one of the best Pindi Channa I have had from a restaurant. You can also get their Channa Naan combo also. The naan is made fresh in a Tandoor, and is very soft and enjoyable to eat. I’ve tried their Boneless Chicken Tikka (which is made in a Tandoor), and it was also very good. I highly recommend trying this restaurant’s menu items. You won’t be disappointed.

If you are visiting Tabaq, or any other place here, you are coming for the cheap/ decent food and not the ambiance as there isn’t much. Located inside the mall, you have to walk past a series of random stores, handful of barbers to get to the food court. There is a decent amount of seating available, but be prepared to wait for a table. Limited sitting for a large family (to sit together). There are several stores offering the same food but Tabaq had the longest line. What I enjoyed was seeing all these women all different ages working, it appeared to be a family business. There was an assembly line to get through the orders quickly. I ordered and received my food fairly quickly. You cat go wrong with a $7.99 nashta. The puri was good. The chick peas were flavourful, the halwa was soft (almost runny) it came paired with raitaa & acchar (pickled mango). The flavour wasn’t bad, I didn’t find everything to be a little oily, wasn’t able to finish it. The chai was good. Overall, for a cheap Pakistani breakfast, I would recommend it!

It should be really good. Almost had it for 10 years on weekends. Now the quality seems to have gone down. They have bought shop in between. Bought samosas from there and they were cold as if they were from last few days.

This restaurant is located in the lower level of Newin Center on Dundas and Hurontario St. The food tastes good here and it is fairly priced. However this is by far the worst service a human being can ever experience. I had the chance to observe the Owner during my visit and I can surely tell you he does not care at all about his customers, rather he tries to sweet talk to avoid the situation. There are exactly 4 older women working in the kitchen and a pregnant lady at the cash counter who is taking orders in person and over the phone, bringing the food from the kitchen to the customers and also servicing the the existing customers who are eating there. There is no organization, structure and process in the entire kitchen. All the employees are all over the place. Here’s how my experience took place: I arrived at the restaurant at 5pm and had to stand inline for 20 mins until my turn came up. To keep things simple and hopefully quick, I only ordered chicken tikka combo and Kebab combo (see pictures). I literally waited there until 6pm for them to even start preparing my order. To my understanding they wouldn’t have even started if i hadn’t complained to the manager. This was my first disappointment. I truly wondered what could possibly take soo long to just grill the chicken and kebab. When I observed how they were preparing my order, bluntly I saw the manager take out the pre cooked chicken and kebab from a container and throw it on the grill to warm up the food. After few mins I was finally served after a 1hr wait. I was anxiously ready to eat my food but after I ate my first bite of the Kebab, the meat was very cold. I had to take it back to the manager and ask him to grill it again. This was extremely disappointing. All I have to say is a good restaurant does not build its reputation on only having good food or cheap prices, they need to care about their customer and give them at least a respectful service. No customer deserves to wait over an hour to get their food.
