"Devon Avenue is home to plenty of South Asian restaurants, like this Pakistani spot that’s been a staple since 1996. This brightly lit, sit-down restaurant is spacious, with plenty of tables, so it’s a great spot for large groups—perfect for sharing their large servings. The crispy vegetable pakora are fantastic starters but then make sure to order some of their grilled and stewed meats. Some of our favorites are the smoky, barbecued chicken boti, the spicy karahi chicken, and their sabri nihari which has a rich, flavorful gravy and incredibly tender beef." - john ringor, veda kilaru
"A former Michelin Bib Gourmand winner (until 2020), Sabri has been around for nearly 25 years. They have secured a rare patio space on Devon. This Pakistani restaurant’s signature namesake beef dish is memorable, as is the chicken boti, beef samosas, and lamb chops. Order to-go online." - Ashok Selvam
"Sabri Nihari is one of the best restaurants along Devon, with a dependable menu of Pakistani favorites. The Malai chicken boti is silky and tender, cooked over charcoal, and marinated with yogurt and ginger. Lamb chops are also stellar." - Naomi Waxman
