  “We came here for a family dinner. Nawaab has always been our go to place for family dinners. Been here many times since it opened up and it has always been a pleasant experience. The staff is courteous, polite and friendly. Raza was serving us today and he provided us with good service. The best thing about them is they are always introducing new food items. We had dynamite wings and peri peri fries today which was new and a really good addition.”

  “I really enjoyed their food. It was like millions options to choose from. I came from Sydney on a two week visit and once I found Nawab, I visited twice. I was so excited to see so many options. I am also thankful to Obaid who was checking my experience and recommended some good options.”

  “The restaurant is quite spacious and extremely popular, which often results in large crowds, especially on weekends. It offers an extensive menu with plenty of dishes to choose from, and everything we tried was fresh, flavorful, and well-prepared. We visited on a weekday, so the atmosphere was much more relaxed and less crowded. However, one aspect that slightly detracted from the experience was that members of the staff began carrying out operational tasks in the middle of the dining area, storing and moving restaurant equipment while guests were dining, which felt somewhat disruptive. Overall, we had a pleasant experience and enjoyed the food thoroughly. While it is certainly worth visiting to experience the variety and quality of the dishes, it is probably a place we would recommend trying at least once rather than returning regularly.”

  “As it is a buffet restaurant. Its a great place to be if you like South Asian (Indian, Pakistani) food. After all chicken tickets masala has been our British national dish! There is a huge variety of food from starters to mains and deserts. Which helps cover majority (not all) of Asian dishes. This does include a variety of chicken curries, rice, bread to beef, lamb dishes. Salads and dessert has a different section. There is also the usual english selection of pizza, chips, nuggets etc if you wanted it. What wasnt available was shami kebabs made of beef. Certainly not chicken. All is certified halal food. They also do all sorts of drinks (alcohol free), from water to fermented milk/ yoghurt drinks. That is extra. So be prepared to pay for it. Toilets are very tidy, neat and comfortable. A must and a welcome specially if you are at a buffet. Although not offical but there is a time limit. And if you stay there too long to eat and drink (Although spending money being a customer). Be prepared to be asked to leave by the management. I guess around 90 minutes plus will keep you safe. But anything more, although not nice you might be asked politely to leave! They should give us more time. After all we are spending money. And lots of it if it's a group. Parking is not available outside. But be prepared togo into a nearby mutli storey building. Its not too expensive. And well worth it for a couple of hours. And easy quick walk to the restaurant.”

  “The Perfect Group Feast at Royal Nawab! ​If you’re looking for the ideal spot to host a large group in East London, Royal Nawab Ilford is a total winner. I headed there yesterday with a group of seven friends, and the buffet setup was absolutely perfect for us. With eight people in total, everyone had different cravings, but the sheer variety ensured nobody left hungry. ​The spread was truly impressive. We couldn't get enough of the Chicken Malai Botti which was melt in your mouth tender and the Lamb Chops, which were seasoned to perfection. The Namkeen Ghosht, Chanay, and fried fish were also huge hits, offering that authentic, traditional flavor we were looking for. To keep things refreshing, we all enjoyed the "Beach Party" drink, which was the perfect vibrant accompaniment to the meal. ​We made sure to save plenty of room for sweets! The Gulab Jaman was warm and decadent, but the highlight was definitely the Malai Cake paired with Vanilla Ice Cream a heavenly combination that we’d highly recommend to anyone. ​The service really set this experience apart. The manager, Anwar, was incredibly helpful and ran the floor with total professionalism, making sure our large group was well attended to throughout the night. The rest of the staff were equally friendly and welcoming, keeping the atmosphere lively and organized despite how busy it was. ​For a group night out with great food and top tier management, Royal Nawab is the place to be. We’ll definitely be back!”

  “⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Royal Nawaab Ilford is a top-quality buffet restaurant with a massive variety of dishes and really good food standards. It’s definitely worth the price for adults, especially compared to other buffet places where the food can feel cheap, here the quality is genuinely very good. They have loads of options including chicken karahi, lamb karahi, different curries, samosas, chips, pizza, noodles, chicken lasagne, pani puri, paya, haleem, grilled wings, grilled chops, lamb steak, biryanis,fresh seekh kebabs and more. The fish and prawn masala was especially lovely. Desserts are also great with plenty of variety, and everything tasted fresh and well cooked. Only downside is my kids don’t eat much 😂 so paying around £30 for 2 teenager who only eats pasta, a few wings and dessert doesn’t feel worth it. For the my youngest it’s fine for £13.99 perfect But that’s just my situation,not restaurants fault lol. But definitely worth it for adults who can eat, there are so many options and you want to get more and try the other dishes but feels impossible as everything tastes so good! Halwa and Gulabjam was very nice perfect, Kids and Mrs enjoyed the sticky toffee pudding and milk cake. Staff were friendly and helpful, atmosphere was nice great ambience with good choice of music , and overall everything was excellent. ✅ Highly recommended Overall rating: 5/5 Pictures don’t do justice didn’t get the chance to take good pics”
