Food is ok but do not be fooled by the online prices. I ordered online using the menu from their website and when I went to collect it totalled upto £25 more than the online menu prices. When queried this they said the online prices have not been updated. They are a bunch of crooks as same this happened to my friend over 8 months ago.

Some dishes are still very tasty though.tiny garnish. Plus side- Its been redecorated.

This used to be very good, but in the last few years, it has deteriorated to such a level that I never go anymore. The food no longer tastes very good, never spicy, and has limited vegan options. They also put the salad on the table, not telling you that you will be charged! The service is now extremely slow and tends to get your orders wrong. The hygiene levels have declined, and the staff seem disinterested.

This restaurant I had originally reviewed had 5 stars this was dating back about 7 years ago but had to delete the review mainly due to food no the same anymore and customer service is not great. The food is just now average but that can vary from each visit as the standard will not be the same on your next visit and still average. I don't know why the standard dropped but they have two restaurants Hounslow and Feltham. Although the Feltham branch is slightly better because of the chef. Each dish is made to your taste on the level of spice you like mine is the extreme end of hot and spicy not just chillies but other spices to give it a lovely flavour. Am not sure what happened but its a hit and miss sometimes it will be good then more visits will not be great so not a great experience to be honest esp. Customer service does not exist, complain about your food it will be acknowledged for improvement but next visit same experience with no discount whatsoever in fact they will charge you more. Example once ordered mixed vegetable pakora and they were all falling apart and when took back the manager Malik acknowledged mistake and made them properly but charged us twice for it again not great customer service. One occasion a waiter dropped food on the floor and picked it up with his hands and placed it back in plate and served it to the customer. Mentioned the drop in food quality to manager many times and next trip was supposed to be on the house but that never happened and this is on more than one occasion I would still visit but now not very frequently almost a last resort trip

Worst place I’ve ever been too! Don’t be blinded by how busy it was like we were. First impression wasn’t great should have known when a guy in a chefs jacket (stained) asked us if we would like to sit in or takeaway. They gave me the wrong order and then tried to convince me that it was butter chicken when it was chicken tikka masala and just ignored me! After asking where my butter chicken was 3 times they brought the same plate I had sent back just reheated and told me it was butter chicken again! Even the bill told said it was Chicken Tikka Masala. They must think people are stupid. The biryani was so salty all I can taste two hours later is salt in my mouth. The kebab meat tasted very strange and questionable so we left that and didn’t eat it. The icing on the cake was going to pay the bill they charge you for salad that they bring to the table as soon as you sit down! The cucumber was dry and looked like it had been sitting out all day and they added £2.50 to the bill for it. Make sure you check your bill. All in all would never eat from there again or recommend it to anyone! Disgusting and poor customer service!

We went for dinner here very recently. We had seekh kabab and lamb chops for starters, masala fish, bhuna ghost (lamb), chicken tikka roll, karahi chicken and butter paneer (all mains) and nans and roti. For a party of 7, the bill came to about £77. The taste was great, the quantity adequate and the oil content was low (always preferable). And the bill was also inexpensive. The only constructive feedback I'll give is that quality of service could do with an upgrade (slightly confused waiters). Overall, highly recommended!!

I have been to the restaurant twice by now both times to ask for fresh naan bread for a take away. I was given an approximate time and had to wait longer despite paying upfront. I felt that they dealt with many orders before returning to me. My uncle actually had the same experience where they gave him 45 minutes waiting time then served many customers before him. He left his order. The naan weren’t all that great, despite asking for baking those to be more brown. Their peshwari naan was a disappointment! They added no nuts just semolina , desiccated coconut and raisins. The prices are high too. Slow service. I am not going back.

I passed through this place for many years but never tried it. Mostly due to the mixed reviews. Some have been amazing and others very critical.

Obviously we had a takeaway. We were really looking forward to the karahi chicken, bhindi masala, peshwari naan and especially the sizzling paneer! How disappointing to find that the paneer and masala tasted of salt and nothing else. The naan was like cardboard and no paste. Had I been at the restaurant I would have sent it all back. I have eaten at this restaurant and had a takeaway before, both of which were excellent. Very disappointed and won’t be getting anything from them again!

The waiters were active and service overall was good given the amount of customers were there. The restaurant could do with TLC on a decoration side to make it more welcoming. Overall a brilliant meal and great value hence we will certainly be going back for sure. No razamataz here, just brilliant food!!!!!

I like this place, and I used to be a regular customer many years ago when I lived in Osterley.The area in general has changed a lot, and not for the better. However, it's nice to see that some things haven't changed, and this is one of them. I seem to remember (a long time ago) that this place was smaller, and wasn't double fronted.What I really like about this place is the karahi. It seems that karahi is a difficult thing to execute, even for smart uptown expensive restaurants. But here, it's exactly as I remember from my birth town of Amritsar (Lahore isn't that far away!). Karahi should be not too dry, but not much of a sauce. Lots of onion, chilli, ginger, garlic, kasoori, a little tomato and yoghurt - and this is what you get here!!It's cooked to order while you can watch!I would recommend the paneer karahi - it's the best.You can see that this place only attracts people from the Indian subcontinent - I fear it's a little too authentic for anyone else!! It's also not a smart restaurant, more like a cafe, so we normally choose to make use of the take away service.As always, you get all of the accompaniments included, including a little salad in a poly bag.You just need one karahi dish, some daal, a little rice, and a naan for a fabulous takeaway. I like that this place has honest authentic food, and doesn't pander to the UK palate.

The best food imaginable. Exciting and powerful flavours. Try the chicken tikka Massala, Shish kebabs, lamb chops, chilliLamb and nan breads. The dall and bindi massala are also excellent. Do NOT expect frills and fancies. The decor is not the best, the service is varied and often slow. The bathrooms are best avoided. BUT the food is sensational. Take your own alcohol.

I head read the negative reviews and I must question the reviewers. Been coming to Lahori Karahi for over 10 years they have been so consistent when many other places haven’t. Being of asian dissent, a good Indian restaurant needs to meet a lot of criteria’s. The place may not look perfect, staff may not be in a uniform but the food is the best by a country mile. Myself and my family come here at least once a month and since moving away from London, I am still happy to make the journey.Some of these negative reviews are very picky and I question the validly of them. There are many Indian restaurants in London but this place is class for a quality meal that is very cost effective and the BYOB policy adds to the saving.If you’re after quality yet cost effective food, look no further. From a loyal and long term customer/diner. Thank you team Lahori for the consistency!

Upside: sizzling platters of lamb, chicken and kebabs. Easy, no rush atmosphere. No charge for corkage with BYO. Reasonable prices overall. Downside: and hence the ‘average’ not ‘good’ rating. The curries are a little too salty and, as other reviewers have commented, they charge you for salad, poppadums and dips they put on the table as you sit down. Since the customer hasn’t ordered these, how can they be charged for? The management need to change this - there are lots of restaurants in Hounslow which are not so sneaky!

We went over the weekend as a family to celebrate my elderly mum's birthday. Had an amazing time with great food. The waiter Amjad deserves a mention.. he was a great host and went the extra mile in serving the birthday cake we brought along. The restaurant has wheelchair access. It has a ramp at the door and inside it is nice and open to manoeuvre a wheelchair, unlike other places that have tables side by side. Parking on a single yellow line is convenient after 7pm (do not park directly in front). You go for the food.. not the decor, but it ain't that bad!

Food was okay, the only issue I’ve had was that the complimentary salad that was given before serving us our food was not fresh and then at the end of our meal we were charged for it. I have been to many Indian restaurants and it’s the 1st time I’ve ever faced something like that. Really disappointed as when asking staff about it we received rude responses. In addition no water was served upon request, needed to remind them several times

For once, the reviews here are spot on. This is unpretentious, reasonably priced, well portioned and expertly cooked Punjabi food at its best. The menu is small which is a sign that they stick to what they are good at. All the standard Pakistani favourites are there - nihari, etc. - they do masala fish grills and biryanis as well as a couple of vege options like bhindi masala to keep non-meat eaters happy but as you would expect it is a carnivore's delight with the lamb chops taking pride of place. Like most Pakistani places you can't go wrong with the karahi meat and the meat biryani we had was very tasty as well. The tarka dal was thick and spicey and portions were generous enough for me to be able to get a doggy bag and enjoy a spicey breakfast the next day. The atmosphere is nice and chilled, you can "bring your own" beer/wine saving on restaurant prices for alcohol (they only serve soft drinks including lassi) and they stay open late till midnight - what is not to like?

If you are looking for a place to chill out with friends, make some noise (you will not be the only one, trust me), have some booze and eat consistent good food each time you visit.

We used to eat at this restaurant almost 20 years ago. It expanded about 10 years ago, taking over premises to either side and upstairs so that it greatly increased the number of customers it could accommodate. They seem now to focus on making money through serving large numbers of customers rather than serving quality food. It's all just very hot. You cannot taste any subtlety in the spices because the heat is overwhelming. I asked for my dish to be made mild. The waiter just stared at me and said nothing until I caved in and said, "medium". And of course, it was so hot that I couldn't taste anything over the burning in my mouth. Also, the tables and the floor are sticky, so you have no idea when they were last cleaned. Do not give this place your business, they don't deserve it.

Went to this restaurant on a friends recommendation, he raved about the food. The format is very much canteen, absolute basics only, no ambiance at all, bit like a bus station cafeteria. I had the chicken tikka for starter, it was absolutely amazing, had prawn biryana for main, very disappointing, didn't finish it. Another one of our party (an Indian chap from Pune) had a chicken biryani and he didnt finish his either. Drinks, coke or tap water. Hygiene suspect. My main reaction was, OK the chicken tikka was really something but what was my mate making all the fuss about?

When you come in, they automatically give you popadoms and sauces, thinking its a complimentary dish, however they charge you for it at the end, so decline this offer.

I love my food very spicy. Most places when you ask for hot food many all they do is either just add chilli powder to it or just give you a bowl of green examples like "The Taste of Pakistan".Its quite a traditional restaurant so don't expect a Sistine Chapel decor the focus is on the food. Customer service is between 2-3 of of 5.If you take your own ingredients along they will cook hence am Vegan so they will cook that for you.

This was much promised but true to bad service part food and a naan arrived. Rest arrived in drabs . By this time food was getting cold ! The attitude is so couldn't care less about the customer. They think they are busy so do not care if customers never return. What was most shocking is NO apology was given for the complete mess up they made . We told them we would NEVER come again.

Heard about this place so went in to check it on a non busy time. Only one table was full. Waiter seemed to be busy taking order for the table so we were patient enough to wait for him to finish. Brings menu after 10 minutes and ready to order. I told him we were ready to order but he told us to wait as the other table wanted to order again. We waited. Then after 10 minutes he comes back to take order. He takes the order. Ordered 2 chicken biryani, 1 chicken masala, 2 naans and 3 regular coke. He 1st brings in sundries. That's fine. But he brings 2 sprite and 1 coke. Says he doesn't have coke. Brings all the food after 10 minutes. Now the tasting beings, the rice in the biryani was horrible. Didn't taste like biryani. The chicken masala was ok. Total waiting time of 30 minutes for food that is not worth it. Never going back again. Thank you!

We were very hungry and sat down at the nearest table for four. A man came and asked us to sit at another table for no reason at all. He was obnoxiously rude to us. After a few minutes we decided to walk out in spite of our growling stomachs. Apparently the rude man was the manger!! It's a shame we couldn't taste the food.

The service here is not good The two waiters were rather rice and on one occasion removed a plate of food that was not finished without even asking if we had finished with it The food was mediocre and rather bland

Went here yesterday as originally wanted to eat in Punjabi Tadka which was full. We were hovering outside as looked dead until someone come to the door and asked us to come in. So we thought we'd give it a try. Service from the start was a little slack but became attentive a little later. Upon ordering the starters we asked the server what the signature dishes he stated the kebabs lamb chops and mixed grill. Which we ordered. When they arrive the kebabs were tasteless the chops looked anaemic and the chicken tikka was orange!!There curries the Kahrai gosht and chicken were tasteless and full of oil even though we insisted that they should cook with less oil. . When I pointed this out to the server he told me it was gravy!? Really?!? The chicken was lemony, the keema aloo was ok albeit far too much salt.Overall the food had no taste no depth full of oil and salt. Reading the other reviews here some people are saying this is the best food they have had. Either they have bad taste or we just came on a bad night. Being punjabi we know what is good and what is not. Wont be going back

I've been coming here for 15 years! I'm of Indian origin and would have to say this is home cooking at its best. We lived in Dubai for many years and now live in Malta and come here every time we're home. It's an institution! Lamb chops are to die for! :)

Me and a friend decided to give this place a go from our regular foody place as hadn't been for many many years. Lamb chops were quite nice, found the Karahi ghosh to be quite salty, but not bad portion size. When the bill arrived, we were charged for salad which we didn't order but was given to us when we were sat down along with a couple of poppadoms, so thought these were complimentary. We questioned this and it was taken off the bill. We don't mind paying for what we order but this was cheeky of them. Service was prompt and good atmosphere there. Would give it another go.

In terms of worst restaurants i have been to its right up there! Which is a shame as my experience with their feltham Branch was better.The Chicken biryani was not fresh the rice and chicken were pre-prepared and heated in the microwave; the rice bordered on dry and crunchy and chicken was tough and stale .....There lamb bhuna gosht also looked like it was there for some time and meat was tough and chewy.All in all a horrible experience. Wont be setting foot in there..... EVER!

Loved this place from the time it opened, but impressively it's only got better and better with time. There are a bunch of Pakistani restaurants in the area but everyone that tries LK always keeps coming back here, the food is insanely good! I told my work lot about it and brought them down once, they have made several trips down with their own friends and family. The food is very reasonably priced and they cater to your taste buds (heat levels). The food is fully halal and you can bring your own alcohol as they are not licensed, they have also recently started home deliveries if you're local (great!). Try their chops, seekh kabab, tandoori fish, butter paneer khrai gosht.. Some of my faves! They also do some great lunchtime deals.I honestly don't bother trying any other Pakistani/Indian restaurant as I automatically know it just won't compare with LK. A true taste of Lahore Pakistan! Delicious!

The taste of the food is lovely, but we found it not very healthy too much oil. The price of the food is very high compared to restaurants nearby. You can bring your own drink which appealed to us with a shop 2 doors away. Recommend the food but they need to make it a little cheaper.

I have been coming to this place for over ten years; with family, friends and as a couple and everyone always enjoys it. They have enough seating to cater for large groups as well and one occasion we were over 30 people. Good food at a reasonable price and I have liked everything that I have tried. The mixed grill is tasty, soft and not over –cooked; the latter a lot of south-Asian restaurants get wrong and especially over-cook lamb, which makes it rubbery and not nice to eat.We used them as caterers for my grandfather’s funeral (five years ago) and the owner reduce the quote when he found out it was for a funeral. The service can be slow sometimes and is their only down-point. They do not serve alcohol but do allow diners to bring their own alcoholic drinks as long as one is discreet. We went this past Sunday and got some of our leftover food as take-away, they were not happy with the kebab left from the mixed grill and packed a fresh one separately with sauces and fresh salad.

This is a great place to come with friends. The food was delicious, I didn't know it was possible to make chicken taste so good! Even plain old rice pudding was made to taste like a proper treat. The fact that you can bring your own alcohol saves a lot of money. I'm already looking forward to going back again.

I see that a number of people have complained about the service..I couldn't fault it - really looked after us, food was quick and they helped us back to the hotel in booking a taxi. As to the food - it's superb, authentic and its curry! If you want a mild gravy western version of a curry whilst tucking a napkin in under your chin whilst leaning on a table cloth then don't come here! If you're made of stronger stuff - then eat here!

The atmosphere of this place is quite loud, and as others have mentioned, it is a canteen-like experience. Service was poor, we had to repeatedly ask for things like chilis before they finally came, and the staff were quite dismissive to any request that we made. At one point, the waiter who served us was even on his phone while taking our order. The food was a bit greasy, but on the whole tasted really good.

The premises are very canteen like, as is the waiting service. As in similar restaurants in the asian subcontinent, you have to make it visibly known that you require service - even the initial order of food and drinks! The food arrives in waves, so clarify if you want each course to arrive at the same time, The quality of the food is very good. The mixed grill starter at £22 for 2 persons seemed very costly. However, when it arrived, it was sufficient to feed 4 adults! Therefore, be careful not to initially over order, as you can add to the order as you go along. This is a BYO restaurant, and conveniently there is an off licence only several doors away.

Karahi gosht or chicken are a must as it the chilli chicken and don't forget the chops. The food in this place is very tasty every time. More canteen like than restaurant but that really isn't relevant.Also don't forget the BYO

I have been coming to this restaurant for years now. Food is absolutely brilliant. Very spicy and flavoursome (not the healthiest of restaurants but who cares!) have to recommend the seekh kebab, karahi lamb and the butter chicken (my favourite). Lots of options for vegetarians too. Don't come to this restaurant If you want a fancy dining experience - this is not what this place is about and that's why I love it. Great how it is bring your own bottle as well makes the meal a lot cheaper. Only criticism is expect to come out and your clothes smell of curry due to the open kitchen! All part of the experience!!! Love this place I will continue to visit every few months!

Food always excellent. Nice to be able to bring your own alcoholic drinks too. Salad is always placed on table so you think this is complimentary - it's not ! Also very expensive for a tired looking salad.No ambiance at all - we only go there for the food - always very noisy and with plastic tables as well.

A basic but clean restaurant where you have to bring your own alcohol. The food is more spicy than I would normally order but still very nice. So spicy in fact that I thought I would suffer with an upset tummy the following day but I did not have any ill effects. The lamb chops were lovely. I will return for more.

We are a group of 12 ex-servicemen who visit Hounslow every year after the Army V Navy rugby at Twickenham. We have eaten in very many restaurants but this was voted the best by the group. As most of them said, probably the best food we have had for years. Service was brilliant and the manager not only looks after you but recommends quantity ie with rice and nans etc. The curries themselves were awesome, freshly cooked and so tasty. Value for money was outstanding and I can honestly say we will be going back hopefully on a regular basis whenever we meet up in London. On behalf of our group I would sincerely like to thank all the staff for a great evening and SEE YOU next year

REally high quality meat and very tender which is hard to come by. Ive been to several lounges and none have come close to providing the quality service this place has. I havent been back in a while but I know that a few months ago before the pandemic they were bustling and very popular.

Received an unsolicited call from this place claiming to be from Three. Guy hung up on me so I phoned back. Same guy said I wasn't speaking English and hung up again. Phoned back and a different guy answered asking if I wanted curry. Suspect they have a side business phishing.
