In Short
This no-frills spot attracts a budget-minded bohemian crowd that can fill the large dining room to capacity. The menu features a mix of traditional Pakistani dishes, such as tandoori-cooked meats, curries and veggie staples. Naan and other breads are homemade and served hot out of the oven throughout the day.

I'm a regular at Pakwan. The food is consistently good, and very reasonably priced. The Vindaloo and CTM are always good, as is the chicken special which is always some variant of chicken in brown sauce. Bring your own beers, and don't be put off if all the tables are gone - you can always get in eventually

I used to think naan and curry was the best 'fast food' type indian, but this place is blowing me away. I went there a few years ago and wasn't impressed, but I think they streamlined the menu to a select few items now. The saag paneer is simply the BEST i have EVER had. Hands down, compared to tons of eateries both cheap and expensive (and Michelin starred). Haven't had everything on the menu, but solid grub on the fast and cheap. I still think the shrimp biryani at naan and curry is the best because they put the shrimp in the tandoor and give you a ton.

Well, if you come to San Francisco, you definetly have to try Pakwan. They have the best tandoori lamb chops i've ever had. So juicy, perfectly spiced and cooked. Damn, just writing this makes me wanna go back.lol
