Pakwan - San Francisco

Favorite order:Saag PaneerGoat or lamb biryaniCurry Chicken Garlic naaanGreat value and 3-4 person meal and BYOB! Hot tip: go to the Foodhall on Valencia and 16th and grab a couple of beers, bring to Pakwan to enjoy :

Shocked to see Pakwan brand making biriyani to order by mixing chicken sauce and rice after order and calling it biriyani. Ordered chicken biriyani, goat biriyani, and tandoori leg. The tandoori leg was as usual Pakwan style no issues. However the biriyani was a huge disappointment. We like Pakwan biriyani from Fremont and Hayward also. However this one was not Dum style it is 3rd rated. Please don't sell biriyani if they are not getting ordered enough. Just drop it from your menu.

We ordered delivery with Door Dash.The Naan and Roti felt like rubber pieces and very very undercooked. Pathetic in simple words.The restaurant didnt even make an effort to add onion OR chutney OR cutlery even though we explicitly mentioned in the instructions.Overall a very pathetic experience and would recommend this place to anyone.

Got take out and the preparation time was quick. The chicken curry dishes seemed the same with just different names. The dishes were also a bit oily and I was surprised that no rice came with the dishes. Flavor was overall okay.

Pakwan is delicious! I came here from a friends recommendation some internet sleuthing of where to find the best SF Indian/Pakistani food). My boyfriend and I split the Chicken Tikka Masala, Garlic Naan, Lamb Biryani, and Saag Paneer. -Saag Paneer was my absolute favorite. The flavor was delicious and the paneer was cooked just right. I will caveat that I haven't had this dish enough times to compare it to other restaurants. All I know is this one definitely hit the spot for me! Portion size was medium. -Chicken Tikka Masala was also great, probably second for me after the Saag Paneer. Portion size was medium. -Garlic naan was great but nothing particularly special. Portion size was medium. -The Lamb Biriyani was delicious and had the perfect amount of spice in it. Portion size was large! Overall I'd highly recommend giving Pakwan a try. It's also worth noting that the cashier/waitress helping us was so, so kind!
