Hugely busy, buzzy and lively restaurant. Queued without a booking and so glad we did. The food was absolutely first class and the staff attentive albeit rushed off their feet. The food, tables and general service was run like a military operation and really efficient. BYO meant we took a nice bottle which cost us £4 corkage rather than being charged twice the price for a cheap bottle. All round great experience and we will be back very soon!! Highly recommend a visit along with all the other people queueing out of the door for a table.

Really good food but service was slow. But we were not rushing so it was fine. The staff were all really friendly and hospitable. We got the mango lasso, meat karahi, saag paneer and chicken danshak.

The food at this place is excellent. It is halal. The mix grill was very delicious. The lamb curry and the chaat were also very nice. The mango lassi was also refreshing and it had the right level of sweetness. The decor at this place is simple but nice. This place is often very busy so getting a table may sometimes be difficult. I went a later in the day when it was less busy and the dining experience was better. Overall, a great place to dine out and worth visiting. The prices of the food is also reasonable.

Lahore Kadahi is one of the best Pakistani restaurant near my home. It's near Tooting Broadway station and right on the high street. Easily spotted too. I love their food. Ee order in quite frequently. But some of the items are best enjoyed hot and in the restaurant.
So we started our meal with Lahori Nasta. It's a platter of Chole, Puri and halwa. The quantity is usually quite large. So sharing could be a better option. I loved the chhole and I loved the halwa. The puri was a bit oily. It was followed by lamb kadahi and Tandoori roti. Quite nice both of them. Especially the Tandoori roti. No oil, no butter but still so soft that you can tear it with two fingers and moist inside. By this time we were so full but couldn't resist the sindhi biriyani served at the neighboring tables. So we ordered that. Undoubtedly the best sindhi biryani in town. Though we had to pack 90% of it and I enjoyed it at dinner.
**My recommendation goes to them.

The last time we had been to this place was during the 'Eat Out to Help Out' food scheme during lockdown, and that was a complete disaster for obvious reasons.
Gave it another shot anyway and was pleasantly surprised with the modern makeover of the place.
Food is slightly oily, quite typical for this to happen to restaurant food, but very lovely overall.
I like that you can take your own drinks in there for a surcharge of £2/person, which is not bad at all. (Especially that they don't sell alcohol and a spicy curry goes nice with a beer).
Maybe book a table beforehand as there is always a queue in there.

Been coming here for years. Not a huge fan of the major makeover, but I suppose it has given them a huge influx of new customers.
Luckily, the food is still very straightforward and to the point. Simple Pakistani cooking served in generous portions. Great for sharing. I normally go for a karahi gosht, chicken biryani, and butter naan (which are all great).
Decided to get a daal, nihari, and rogni naan this time around. Nihari is one of the better ones I've had, but I wish it was slightly thicker and had a touch more salt. Rogni is by far the best I've had, hot and fluffy. Daal is very basic and simple - does the job.
Samosa chaat was nice but would've been made even better with some crispy bits.

The food was delicious and excellent quality, fantastic value and nice waiters. No complaints. I highly recommend this place. I especially liked the meat biryani. We dined in but they had so many takeaway orders coming through—proof that the food is delicious

Very busy restaurant, we had to wait over 15 mins to be seated. However, it was worth it as the food was delicious. We been to this restaurant few times but always enjoyed the food. We ordered a number of dishes, and every one of them tasted exceptionally brilliant. The price seems reasonable but could have been cheaper in comparison to other high-end restaurants. Anyway, overall, everything was nice and had a wonderful evening.

A friendly family run place serving authentic Pakistani dishes.
We ordered a variety of dishes as it was our first time. The food was tasty but we found it very oily, and that's the reason for 4 stars .
All of the dishes had a lot of oil in it.
The service timing was less than 10 minutes for the mains to come out, customer service was also good and the atmosphere was really nice.

Food was delicious and if you do go then the lamb chops on the grill are an absolute must and loads of people had the same. Vege samosas were really nice as well.
Food delivery was very quick and hot on arrival.
Would come here again.
