(Sep 10th 2021 update) My wife and I both booked Lasbela individually as a surprise for our wedding anniversary. She did it 2 days ahead.. and I panic called the same day.. lol. She booked 6:30pm and I had 7 pm.. #marriagegoals. If you haven't been to Lasbela, I'd say treat yourself with a visit. Aziz bhai is an excellent host, Ayesha knows the menu so well, if you don't know what to get.. she'll definitely get you the right recommendation. Then there is Raza for some comic relief..if he's serving you.. I love the Lasbela team..
I had
2)Makhmali malai boti this malai boti isn't diced in cubes. it was creamy and had that deep bbq flavor. you know what I mean.. some places have malai boti but it ends up tasting like frozen tofu.. not this. Very good bite.
3)Chilman Murgh Biryani the puff pastry acts as a flavor dome and easy to cut through. the Biryani was long grain.. you could smell the essence. it was medium heat.. you didn't chase for water after every bite.. it wasn't dowsed in food coloring not floating in oil (not pointing to anyone in particular). this passed day#2 reheat test as well.
4)Balouchi bhunna ghost This is a must have for my family. just love how tender the meat is.. the "wok hay" on this perfect.it calls for a doughy nan..and the nan I got went a bit crispy for me. none the less. I highly recommend this. if it's too hot.. try it with raita.
5)Tawa Keema Ginger was julienned, onions sweated nicely in the pan and the mince meat was rich. I tried it with naan, you might want to try it the traditional way with a puri paratha for the complete experience.
6)kids tender and fries /Mango lassi Kids loved the decor on the food.rice papad/vadam/khichia papad? I need to figure how to get these and make at home now. kids also got Mango lassi. its eye candy and light enough for kids to finish their meals along with the lassi.
7)Burg-e-gul/Lala Rukh drinks I preferred burg-e-gul over lala rukh. the rose in burg-e-gul was "rooh-afza" familiar, while lala-rukh got slightly bitter with lime and mint. I did take some togo and it was refreshing in the afternoon heat. Got me through yard work.. so it grew on me.. slowly..
I did order a lot! as everything is good here and I don't mind taking to go. Best time to reserve I'd say will be 6-7 to beat the dinner crowd. eat early.. there are health benefits 😀

Read moreNew Updated Review November 25th 2021. Lasbela restaurant never stop amazes us. Just had their thanksgiving buffet. We reserved the 5:30-7:00 dinner slot. We arrived at 5:35 and the staff greeted us with their friendly smile, and walked us to our reserved table. Within 10 minutes all guests arrived and Mr. Aziz opened the buffet. Great selection of salads, delicious n tender Turkey with mashed potatoes, mac n cheese. Mouth watering kebabs, lahori fish, karahee, bhuna gosht, pilaf, paya, qeema, tikka and bhindi masala. Oh, and then there was this table filled with sweet delectables, rabri kheer, gulab jamun, shahi tukre, bite size cheese cakes and caramel drizzled donut holes. We added their signature shikanjabeen and ended our feast with the karak doodh patti chai. The staff and mr aziz were on their toes and had their A game the whole time. Special kudos to mr. Aziz for arranging 3 different slots to accommodate every LASBELA lover :). **Felt sorry for the family of 10-12 who walked in the middle of the full capacity reserve event and weren't able to eat the delicious food. If we are able to eat with our family, it's a blessing. Be thankful.

We went for a family dinner and was greeted by a friendly staff member Raza, who walk us to our table. Staff maintained the COVID SOPs. Owner himself walked up to each table and asked if anyone needed anything. Food tasted great. We ordered pilaf, murgh makhni, bihari kebabs, chargha and balochi bhuna gosht ( suggested by Raza). We loved all the food. For drinks we had shikanj e been which was very refreshing. For desserts we ordered gulab jamun, ras malai, and ice cream. I appreciated the team member Raza for offering kulfi to the girls ( on the house) as their ice cream machine wasnt working porperly. Strong tea to finish our meal. What an amazing time we had with our family, enjoyed their mouth watering and delicious food. Keep it up Lasbela. Special thanks to our friendly staff memeber Raza for being on his toes and providing us great service.Will come...
