Lamb curry is exceptional
I have been here several times and the food is absolutely delicious. Honestly it's really good and authentic. I always have a lamb curry - I have tried all of them on the menu and they are all superb. The nan is exceptional and it's hard not to eat the entire thing. My advice is hold on the rice and have the nan instead. Literally straight out of the oven. Yum!

For the past four years
For the past four years, I've consistently enjoyed the food from this establishment; it's consistently excellent. Unfortunately, the staff's unfriendly behavior taints the overall dining experience. Feeling appreciated as a customer is crucial, and since this isn't the case here, I've decided not to visit again.
The lamchops are to die for
The lamchops are to die for, family have really enjoyed the evening and will return for sure. The Karai was little spicy but able to handle the heat.
Rude, surly staff, that'll be Lahore!
I've bought food from here for about 4 years, and it's always been very good, however the staff are rude and unfriendly. This attitude ruins any 'eating experience' and is my deciding factor to not use this place again.
Customers need to be valued, they are not an inconvenience and this one will never return!
Do not schedule large parties here…
The young man who served our entire table of 14 guests from the UK, US and Japan deserves five-stars (I wish I could remember his name); however, Management is another story…
My husband was celebrating a landmark birthday as well as our second wedding anniversary according to Punjabi custom. We were dressed in traditional attire, ready to celebrate, and prepared to spend a great deal of money on what we expected to be a private room reserved for the night to midnight, which he had discussed and negotiated, or so we thought, and were told that Management would take care and leave all to them; infamous last words.
When we arrived in three separate vehicles during the timeframe discussed, we arrived to a packed house and three separate parties going on at the same time in the private room we believed we had reserved. The Manager tried to give the excuse that we were late and every other excuse. They crammed us into a long table with barely elbow room, no menu finalization discussed (they just started bringing out dishes), plates were wet, we had to continuously ask for water refills, drinks were not taken, and we walked out with a bill of 500+. Nothing was organized. Everything was a mess.
The atmosphere was loud and place chaotic. We could not execute any part of our plan. My husband felt completely disrespected, my mother-in-law was beside herself and told the gentleman so in Urdu. The Manager suggestion that he would “take care of us next time” we return was completely inappropriate and laughable to think that we would return and would not share our experience.
This was a dishonor…
We discourage anyone wanting to celebrate an occasion or have an authentic Punjabi cultural experience at this contemporary westernized restaurant.

Amazing people, tasty foods. Definately visit again.
Lahore karahi...a must to visit.
I have lived locally for 30yrs and promised myself I would visit this restaurant one day. Well I did today!!! Now I'm asking myself, what took me so long...I had prawn tikka in the most amazing cream sauce and home made nan. It was absolutely delicious. The restaurant was clean and fresh. Service couldn't have been better, friendly staff and although cooked to order, my meal came quickly. It will definitely be a place I will visit in the future.
I have a great experience

Ordered a takeaway straight away they got it for me although they were very busy.
I ordered Lamb biriany and Onion Bhaji's probably the best Biriany and Onion Bhajis I have ever tried and the chilli sauce and mint sauce were out of this world, I am really glad i found this place, really a gem.
Ordered on Uber eats
Ordered on Uber eats, app said 45 mins. After 90 mins the first Uber driver gave up waiting and cancelled. delivery eventually arrived nearly 2 Hours after order.ing and was barely warm. Tried calling the restaurant several times but no answer. Poor service, poor food.
VERY poor - half order missing & food repeating on me for 2 days
Extremely poor experience. Absolutely appalling. Avoid at all costs. Never going back. Don’t believe all the fake hype on social media.
Takeaway order - missing half of the order. Had to go back to the restaurant who didn’t care about the mistake and felt like we had to justify why we needed the items that were missing.
We ordered 5 x paneer starter dishes and only received 2. Then they tried to put remaining three portions in one tub which looked like 2 portions at most - cheapskates. The manager did not care too much about good customer service. He finally agreed to add a bit more paneer and then referred to it as ‘free’ - no we asked for what we paid for and what initially failed to deliver. Simple.
The food was repeating on me for 2 days after, which is never a good sign. Food is not fresh, pre-cooked and microwaved. Prices are too expensive for a ‘microwave meal’.
Inside the atmosphere is hectic, staff running around like headless chickens. Can barely move around. Extreme pub like atmosphere - great if you want to leave with a headache.
If you do decide to collect a takeaway or god forbid actually sit in and eat - ensure to take paracetamol with you. You’ll need it.
Best food and authentic recipies.
Excellent spot for curry in Tooting
The restaurant is consistently busy, and with good reason. The food is absolutely delicious, the service is friendly & quick, and the atmosphere is always lively and fun. One of the best curries I've had in a long time!
