Pak Halal Kitchen — Restaurant in Artesia

BETWEEN THE REVIEWS w/ Rodney S

Q) So, Rodney, where did you go for lunch? A) To Pak.

Q) 2pac?! The rapper?! A) No, to Pak. I went to Pak Halal in Artesia.

Q) Oh, I see. Was this your first time visiting? A) Yes, Rodney. A few Muslim gym buddies o' mine kept recommending Pak Halal, so of course I had to give the place a shot.

Q) What did you order? A) Being my first time, I gave the Special Dishes display a thorough perusing.

Knowing I wanted a beef or mutton entree, after much thought & deliberation, I went all in on Pak Halal's Beef Nihari.

Q) Rodney, how was the Beef Nihari? A) Spiced tender beef, swimming in flavorful broth. I enjoyed the Beef Nihari. I prefer a solid amount of fat to meat, and the Beef Nihari had just what I was looking for. Ample portions, with enough to fill up on. Speaking of filling up, the ginormous Garlic Naan provided a lot of garlicky carbs, made all the more better when soaking up with the Beef Nihari broth

Q) How was the service, and what are the seating arrangements? A) Rodney, the service was good. The wait wasn't unreasonable. Being a small deli, there is a table or two inside & outside. Pak Halal is more an order ahead, grab n' go eatery. The railing outside Pak Halal acts as a standing communal table, in which I used to dine on my meal.

Q) Rodney, would you recommend Pak Halal? A) Absolutely, Rodney! The food was great at Pak Halal, and when I'm in a hurry and not looking for a sit-down restaurant experience, I know I can head over to Pak Halal and order something to go, or enjoy a quick meal on the railing, before life's troubles beckon...

Why he doesn't get chili spray or mace spray and just take money and spray customer so he get blind and take their money and you would have more money. I don't recommend to eat here unless he starts giving money worth food 12 dollars is for 1.5...

This review may be a bit late, but I can't help but share my recent experience at Pak Halal Kitchen for lunch. We placed our order, and in just 15-20 minutes, our food was ready! If you're craving authentic Pakistani food on the go, this is the perfect spot especially on those busy days when cooking just isn't an option. While it's not a sit-down restaurant, you can easily grab your meal and enjoy it in the comfort of your car. The front area is impressively clean, and the customer service is outstanding; the staff member at the front is incredibly friendly and attentive.

Now, let's talk about the food. We ordered chicken biryani, beef nihari, tandoori chicken, chicken tikka, and garlic naan. My absolute favorites were the chicken biryani and beef nihari, and I can't forget to mention the garlic naan it's a must-try! The meat in both the biryani and nihari is incredibly tender, practically falling off the bones. The tandoori chicken and chicken tikka are bursting with flavor and juiciness. I'll definitely be returning whenever I have a craving for...
