• 2/8/22The white fish was cooked perfectly. The side of pickles had a few vegetables and a curry flavor. Very good.

• 6/18/25The Whole Tilapia fish Deep Fried /$6.00/Lb. Was fried to perfection! 28. Tilapia Fish ($6/Lb) was great also, perfectly cooked. Both are served with tomato, onion, and lemon. The 28. Tilapia Fish ($6/Lb) also includes tanoor bread and a tangy amba sauce.

• 8/27/26I have been ordering from Nahrain for years and it's not easy for me to leave a negative review, but what happened today really upset me. I ordered one of my favorites, the 41. Sayadia Rice رز الصياديه. I could tell immediately when I opened it something was wrong. The smell was off. There were large clumps of rice including ones in the shape of the corner of a square container. The grains were all bruised and exploded. When I tried it, the texture was off. This was clearly rice from last night that they had refrigerated and reheated.
If I order from here again I won't be ordering any rice.

• 1/19/25The chicken was completely tasteless. It's just fried chicken. Without salt or pepper. No marinade. I don't understand. He forgot to salt the chicken. It's a pity. I ordered a takeout. But I decided to stay and eat inside the restaurant. But he told me I couldn't stay. Ok.
