🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Absolutely Outstanding Experience at Savoy Restaurant!

I recently dined at Savoy Restaurant and had an unforgettable meal that left me beyond satisfied. From the food to the service, everything was top-notch. Here's a breakdown of the items we tried, each one worth mentioning:

🍛 Hyderabadi Goat Karahi – 10/10 This dish was the highlight of our meal. Rich, spicy, and full of authentic Hyderabadi flavor. The goat was perfectly tender and infused with deep, slow-cooked spices. The gravy had that perfect karahi oil layer on top that true desi food lovers crave. Absolute perfection!

🥩 Goat Chops – 9.5/10 Juicy, tender, and grilled to smoky perfection. The marinade on the goat chops is something else – spicy, bold, and mouthwatering. You can tell these are made with love and care. They come out sizzling and make your mouth water even before the first bite.

🔥 BBQ Platter – 9/10 A great combination of all the BBQ classics. Each skewer was flavorful and well-cooked. The variety is perfect for sharing. Everything had a nice char without being dry – especially the chicken and beef. It’s a great way to sample their grill options in one go.

🍢 Beef Behari Kebab – 10/10 These kebabs are soft, spicy, and melt-in-your-mouth tender. You can taste the layers of marinade and the traditional spices. They’re cooked just right – not chewy at all. If you like beef kebabs with a bold taste, this is the one!

🍗 Chicken Bihari – 9/10 Also very tasty! Spiced just right and super tender. It had a nice smoky finish from the grill that made it stand out from average BBQ chicken dishes.

🍞 Butter Naan – 10/10 Fresh, fluffy, and generously buttered – these naan are the perfect companion to every dish. They soak up the karahi gravy perfectly. Hot and straight from the tandoor, just the way naan should be.

🧈 Butter Chicken – 9.5/10 Creamy, rich, and full of flavor. The gravy was buttery without being too sweet, which I really appreciated. The chicken pieces were tender and cooked well. It paired so nicely with the naan and rice.

💬 Service Review: The service at Savoy is just as amazing as the food. The staff is polite, professional, and always checking in to make sure you’re happy. The food came out hot and in a timely manner, even though it was busy.

🙏 Special thanks to Omer (Umer) – a kind-hearted and helpful Pakistani gentleman who went above and beyond to make our dining experience smooth and pleasant. He was patient, gave great menu recommendations, and made sure everything arrived just right. Truly great customer service!

My recent visit to Savoy Restaurant was an absolute culinary treat, and I can confidently say it's a true gem for Indo-Pak cuisine! From the moment I stepped in, the inviting aroma and the welcoming atmosphere set a fantastic tone for the meal. Even for a quick pickup, the efficiency was impressive, with my order ready in just about 15 minutes.

I opted for the classics: garlic naan and butter chicken, and they were simply divine. The butter chicken was incredibly delicious – fragrant, perfectly flavorful, and wonderfully mild, with that rich, creamy texture that makes it a true comfort dish. It was clear it was made with care. The garlic naan was also fantastic; warm, soft, and with just the right hint of garlic, making it the perfect accompaniment to the rich curry. I also heard great things about their biryani and beef nihari, which I'm eager to try next time.

Beyond the food, the service was excellent. My order was packed extra tight, ensuring no spills, which is a thoughtful touch for a pickup. The staff were friendly and helpful, even for a brief interaction. The restaurant itself, though I didn't dine in extensively, felt quaint and comfortable, with plenty of parking available. Savoy Restaurant truly delivers on delicious, authentic flavors and great service, making it a place I'll definitely be returning to for a full dine-in experience!

Savoy Restaurant has a long-standing reputation as the first Indo-Pak restaurant in Houston, serving the community since 1986. It’s impressive to see how they’ve evolved from a BBQ grill to a full-service Indo-Pak restaurant that’s deeply rooted in the local community.

We ordered the goat curry, beef nihari, and biryani. While the goat curry was underwhelming and not to our taste, the beef nihari was rich, flavorful, and perfectly spiced. The biryani also stood out with its aroma and balanced seasoning.

The atmosphere is welcoming, and the private room for families is a thoughtful touch. It’s also great to know they use 100% Zabiha Halal meat and support local events through catering and their banquet hall.

Overall, a solid 4-star experience. With some improvements to the goat curry, this place could easily earn a 5 from us.

I had a pick up order which took around 15 mins. I only ordered two things: garlic naan and butter chicken. Two classic dishes you can’t go wrong. I’m also very glad they packed the butter chicken extra tight so nothing spilled!

The garlic naan was great. Usually, I like prefer the garlic in the naan cooked a bit more since there was still a bit of the raw garlic taste, but it wasn’t overbearing or too powerful. The butter chicken was delicious. It was fragrant, flavorful, yet mild. I noticed other reviewers said it was oily but it’s butter chicken! It’s made with ghee! It wasn’t drowning in oil, maybe they had a bad batch?

I can’t say much about the atmosphere since I didn’t dine in, it’s a small and quaint joint. Overall, I’ll definitely come back to dine in and try other the other dishes.

We had a really good time for dinner at Savoy. The food was really fresh, hot, and fast. The mixed grill platter was delicious and very flavorful. Quantity of the food was also very good! Our server was Naeem and he did a great job. Very kind and made sure the food was served with our preference. Ask for Naeem!!
