Ajman and Sharjah are contiguous. The emirates run into one another with no real separation, and for most Ajman residents a restaurant in central Sharjah is a shorter trip than one on the other side of their own emirate. That is worth knowing, because it roughly triples the number of kitchens available to you.
What Sharjah adds to the Ajman options
Density, mostly. Sharjah's Abu Shaghara, Rolla and Al Nahda districts carry a very high concentration of long-standing Pakistani and Indian restaurants serving a large resident population. That means more regional specialisation than a smaller catchment can support: charsi karahi and shinwari karahi as separate dishes, nihari, chargha, and a proper tandoor rather than an oven.
What it costs
- Chicken Biryani AED 15, Mutton Biryani AED 20
- Beef Nihari AED 20, whole Charga AED 40
- Chicken Karahi AED 29 half, AED 48 full
- Chicken Handi AED 26, Butter Chicken Handi AED 32
- Mixed BBQ Platter AED 45, Shahi AED 95, Monal AED 165
- Plain naan AED 1.50
Those are from our menu in Abu Shaghara. For a family, the dinner buffet is usually the better number: AED 42 for adults and AED 22 for children Monday to Thursday from 7:00 PM to 11:00 PM, and AED 65 and AED 33 Friday to Sunday from 7:00 PM to midnight.
Coming for an occasion rather than a dinner
We cater across Sharjah, Dubai and Ajman, with our own staff, chafing dishes and setup at your venue. Packages run from AED 45 a head to AED 110, built around biryani, karahi, tandoor grills and a dessert table, with a minimum order of AED 3,000 on outdoor catering. The detail is on the catering menu.
For birthdays and family celebrations in the restaurant itself, wall decor is AED 200, cakes are AED 150 to AED 300 and flowers are AED 100, on top of the buffet rate. Those are set out on the birthday packages page.
Practical notes
We are opposite Nesto Hypermarket in Bu Shaghara, Hay Al Qasimiah, open noon to midnight seven days a week, and parking around the restaurant is straightforward. Sharjah is a dry emirate, so plan the evening around the food.
Directions and both numbers are on the contact page. If you have not eaten Pakistani food before, start here.
