Amazing food, the best south Asian food I've tasted in this country and affordable, great prices. Amazing service and atmosphere. Although very packed would recommend to reserve a table otherwise may have to wait a while.

Really great food but we placed a large takeaway order and found there were missing items when we got home. For example the lamb chops had 4 pieces and not 5 so one of us had to miss out. Recommend check your order very carefully before leaving the restaurant. Meal was great though and am sure I will update my review next time we visit.

Great food, and great service. The staff are friendly, and polite. The starter arrived 5 minutes after ordering, then the main arrived 10 minutes later. The food was lovely. I had a meat vindaloo, super spicy.

Just rode a time machine...now 30 and haven't been here since I was 6 years old.Let's call this part 1 as I ate the mains before taking pics....I'll be back.What can I say after tooting becoming gentrified this place as moved and changed with the times in it's decor and service.Located next to tooting market...free parking after 6pmA 20 mins wait for 2 on a busy Saturday night was expected but a well controlled que system. You can book inadvance if your not last-minute.com like me.If you like taking pictures of food and restaurants your in the right place. Decor is light vibrant and current. That flowers dangling from the ceiling without the hayfever attack.But the food remains amazing. The flavours are to die for. Ill review the starters and include pictures as the mains got devoured. Onion bhaji and meat somosa crunchy exterior soft and tender interior. Best bhaji I've ever eaten in a restaurant. The mixed grill comes in three sizes. Juicy sizzling different cuts of meat crazy flavours.I'll be back for Part 2 of lahore Karachi a

Very satisfied with the food we ordered, affordable and good quality. The annoying thing was; cooking smells' emanating from its kitchen were left on our clothes badly.

Newly renovated restaurant although I don't think the top floor is being used apart from party hire venue.I love the introduction of the omelette parathas (my favourite) and the Lahori falooda.The food is less spicy than Dawat, which is probably one of the reasons for its popularity, but, personally I prefer spicier food.Compared to Dawat, the service here is far quicker and they don't get orders wrong, which is great.

The place has been fully transformed and updated from before. The new décor is really nice.The food was good, we ordered a variety of starters and mains to share between 3 of us and it was more than enough to completely fill us up. I personally would recommend 1 starter and main per person with rice or naan to not over order. And the mango lassi is delicious!The restaurant was accommodating to covid distancing and cleaning. With hand sanitizer available and additional seating and spacing available upstairs. The staff were understanding and friendly towards us all.There is free parking in the area after 5:30pm.I hope you have found this review helpful 🙂

So we ordered through deliveroo and the pricing was on the high side but with good reason.Firstly the food arrived early and very hot.The quality was outstanding. The taste was more than I expected and very flavoursome.The portions are big. I really recommend ordering the lamb chops, the mixed grill and the lamb kharahi.The chicken byriani was delicious too. The special rice is like a light egg and thinly sliced chicken rice very nice too.The meats were all so tender and melted in the mouth absolutely delicious.

This indiand restaurant is so good! Dishes are very tasty and big portions. The place can be a bit crowded as it is very popular, but if you love Indian food, this restaurant is a must go if you are in the area. The prices are reasonable and the service is good, it can be a little slow but it is so worth it.
