The Bottom Line

Daily Express Restaurant is a Pakistani restaurant in Dubai Investment Park with dine-in, takeaway and delivery. The clearest reason to visit is the Nihari, which several customers treat as the signature dish; Maghaz Nihari, Bihari kebab and tandoori roti also receive strong mentions. Some diners say the biryani tastes close to Karachi, while others have found it underwhelming.

The food is not perfectly consistent. Reviews describe freshly made kebabs, soft naan and rich Peshawari karahi, but there are also complaints about cold or stale food, bland Behari Boti, undercooked chicken and a small mutton biryani portion. If you are new here, simple Nihari or Maghaz Nihari is the more dependable starting point, and it is worth asking about spice levels.

The setting is casual and somewhat basic rather than polished. Lighting and the family area have been flagged for improvement, although other diners found the space clean and acceptable. Staff are often described as friendly and professional, but one order mix-up involved chicken tikka arriving as grilled chicken.

Free parking is mentioned, and delivery customers report quick, neat packaging; compare prices across Talabat, Noon and direct ordering before paying.
