Lovely large family restaurant in Normanton Road which serves traditional Pakistani curries and dishes. Its was quite late around 10pm most restaurants were closed but this place was busy which only meant one thing good food!! There is large seating area to accommodate more than 100+ people. Staff were very friendly when requesting a different seating position they were happy to accommodate us all. Seating was very comfortable and table was spacious for 6 people. We went for traditional mix grill with additional kebabs and chops, with chicken and meat karahi dishes, cod masala fish and pilau and plain rice and to relax it all a jug of Mango Lassi. Starters didn’t take too long and arrived hot, sizzing and full of flavour. Positions were generous and enough for the six of us as we ordered extra items. We had to remind staff about the drinks and mango lassi guess they were super busy but we got the drinks in the end. The 1kg meat came in a large wok pan which was too much for us and the 1/2 kg of chicken was in a smaller wok. I feel when you don’t know the sizes staff should shown the dish sizes or have some illustrations. We had so much food left over hence had to do takeaway afterwards. The karahi dishes were lovely, hot, sizzling, full of flavour and spice just the way us Bengali’s like it. We enjoyed our meal and didn’t feel rushed and staff again very kind and helpful. Lovely food, lovely place and lovely staff

You can get a very good taste of pakistani/punjabi cuisine here. The food tastes really delicious and the staff is very customer friendly. The environment is good for sitting of family or with a group of friends. It takes around 30-40 minutes to get your order (still worth it) but you can pre-book on a phone call and save your time by 20-25 minutes. I recommend charsi tikka, white chicken and lamb karahi. They give you freshly baked pakistani bread (chapati) with dinner. The environment is quite clean as the staff is efficient and responsive. Worth a visit for all those who want the taste of pakistani cuisine. (The people in the photos have consented for them to be made public)

The food was very good, the starters were excellent especially the seekh kebabs and the marinade on the lamb Chops was 😋. The chicken tikka masala curry was the best I gave ever had. Wasn't too keen on the butter chicken and the palak gosht was mediocre. They were busy initially went we went in at 6 but by the time we left it had quietened down. They have lost a star for service as we asked them for desi tea as it was on the menu but they said they were busy. Overall excellent food at a very reasonable price.

Excellent curry fish, chicken not bad too, a bit of a let down with the mix grill as the lamb tikka and the chicken tikka meant to be in chunks was in very thin slices, so be aware if you order this!! Service was a big let down as well, we ordered a jug of mango lassie with the rest of the meal, but had to ask the server several times for it and he looked quite annoyed. Telling us is coming!! It did eventually come, by then we are halfway through our meal!! Such a shame!!

I have visited this place several times,once in a month and the food was always brilliant. Price is very reasonable. I would definitely recommend to try out this place. Try charai lamb kadhai & Mix grill, charai tikka.
