Wok & Karahi

Amazing lamb biryani. Fragrant, tasty and wholesome. The spicing is great, the lamb soft and the boiled eggs and bread to seal it make it extremely moreish! A must try! Chicken lollipop starter was full of different flavours coming through. Crispy, spicy and tasty. The handi chicken was very good aswell. The sauce tastes like tarka flavour. Very unique. Mango Lassi hit the spot. All in all a fantastic meal that's also great value for money. Will definitely be back. Oh, and did I mention how friendly the service is?! 12/10

Having traveled the world in search of good Hyderabadi food, it was time to put the biriyani in Southhall to test. And boy, Wok & Karahi did not disappoint. The ambience was good, albeit the place being small. I can easily see it being crowded out of customers and maybe even losing a few in the process. The host staff were great, polite and served with a smile throughout. The food itself was excellent and reminded me of the Alpha hotel in Hyderabad. The presentation on the other hand was very much like the Paradise biryani joint. The meat was tender and well cooked, the spices and the seasoning just right. My only gripe is that the paucity in the amount of food for the price and the wait time, although the latter is justified by their need to cook freshly upon order. I wish there was more food in the serving, but nonetheless, I left with a great aftertaste. The same day I tried other joints in Southhall including Spice Village. Hands down Wok & Karahi is the better place. Will be coming back here again for sure!

Very interesting little space. Great spin on the cuisine. Traditional tastes with contemporary British twist. Overall, a good experience. Gears pretty crowded over the weekend and the most favoured ‘Handi Nawabi’ takes about 25 minutes to prepare. If you can wait, the taste is great! A single serving of nan has four pieces. Extra nan (ordered later) takes about 5 minutes to arrive.
