  One of the best Pakistani restaurants I've eaten at. Only some of the best in Chicago compare.
  
  Prices are cheap, kabobs are hands-down one of the juiciest and most succulent you'll eat within the nearby 100 zip codes, and the included grocery store is a nice bonus.

  $3 chicken sandwiches with the bread fresh out of the tandoor oven, and the chicken is usually being cooked around the time you order the sandwich.
  
  Helpful staff. They are also a butcher shop that sells good quality meat. I wanted lamb but didn't know much about the different cuts...the guy had patience explaining the different uses of different cuts, how to prepare them, etc.
  
  They have a menu with other items, but those items aren't always available, but with a $3 sandwich being a backup, I personally don't mind. The small store also has other middle eastern products for sale.

  This hidden gem adjacent to UC has cheap, delicious tandoori chicken rolls. For only $3 you get excellently spiced, huge pieces of chicken kabob with vegetables and a garlic yogurt-based sauce all wrapped in a warm, fluffy naan. They have other typical Indian/Pakistani curries and dishes as well, but the rolls are so good I haven't expanded my menu choices yet. It is also a market so you can pick up some traditional south asian spices and products, as well as halal meat. Definitely recommend for a cheap, quality lunch.
