"Everything was delicious! The Knafeh was freshly made. I also loved the reus bag provided with the delivery. "
"I ordered 2 kunafa one with cheese and pistachios one with just cheese I got 2 of the same . The taste was terrible , it had no syrup it was dry and tasteless , no smell or butter or ghee it seems like they use vegetable oil I never had a kunafa that tastes so bad in my life. I will never order again. Also it was very small for the price but the worst part was the taste .. taste is the most important I'm willing to pay if the taste is good but it wasn't good at all."

"I've enjoyed other Shah's locations in the past. Ordered extra meat and received less than what I consider regular. The meat was overdone but the rest of the platter was decent. Pro is the number of toppings included, but I cant recommend it unless the meat quality and quantity improve similar to how I have experienced at other locations. "
"The taste wasn't the same as in the past. It was a bit bland. Also, the white sauce in the package doesn't have the same freshness as it previously had when it was made fresh. I probably won't order again as this is the second time I've experienced this."
