Lahore Karahi in Wandsworth

We had high expectations of this BYOB restaurant as there was a considerable queue for a table when we visited. When we eventually got a table we waited quite a while for our order to be taken and then, throughout the service, had to ask for dishes that had been ordered but not brought to the table. The waitress seemed particularly disinterested. The food was not cheap and was disappointing - surprisingly bland, in fact.. An emotive issue, I know, but the Palestinian flag appearing on the advertising monitors in the restaurant, was, we thought, unnecessary in a commercial environment. All in all, a mildly disappointing experience.

pakora dry. No longer provide complimentary chutneys sadly

We have visited this restaurant many times and have never been disappointed. The food is exceptional especially the chicken and ginger kahari. There was a group of 10 on this last visit and everyone was very happy with the food. The staff are friendly and polite and the restaurant is always busy with a good atmosphere. Would definitely recommend

The above scores may be confusing but this is because there was a problem between JustEat and the order arriving at the restaurant. However, the restaurant dealt with the issue when I contacted them and gifted us some extras to say sorry. The food was excellent as always but perhaps could have been hotter, but this could be down to the delivery driver who wasn’t the brightest!

I did not receive the discount

Okay not as good as it used to be. Microwaved samosas. Very little paneer in main dish. Very very good aloo paratha. Lots of flies around restaurant in September which was a bit gross.

Poor quality,I ordered 7 boxes of different curry’s and every one is half portion,price full,boxes half cheater,mixed vegetable and potato with cauliflower very bad taste.this time saag with potato also bad taste,saag and potato

3.5/5 Chicken biryani was bland , and chicken karahi was above average, which was disappointing considering this is THE DISH of this restaurant. The kebabs we ordered were tender and flavourful. Falooda was a bit watery , but the kulfi in it was delicious. The staff were very polite and accomodating.

Great food, bit cold and all the bread was missing

Overall it wasn't a bad experience. I marked as 4 star as, when we entered, we said we don't want coriander on the food. Any food, yet the hot wings arrived covered with it. As well as the rice. Disappointed because the meal cost £70 for 3 people which the rice had to be cooked again from scratch, the hot wings, we picked the coriander off, but, for £70, you expect, after telling the waiter, the last thing you need to do is send the food back to be redone. I'm afraid.to say, we won't be returning.

I feel bad writing this because I love the food when I’m there in person. ordered a chicken karahi on Uber eats - literally boiled boneless chicken pieces put into a flavorless tomato sauce. Chicken wasn’t browned so tasteless. Oil separated, this is NOT A KARAHI. Ridiculous. The capsicum wasn’t even cooked or browned. This was a zero effort dish that is in their actual name. The restaurant used to be good in the 90s but has gone downhill. it seems they no longer take pride in the cooking. They should take some cooking lessons.

Curry was lukewarm even though restaurant is nearby

Lovely curry shame about the number 2 hygiene rating. If I knew about that I never would of eaten it !!!

Best breakfast point in London! Highly recommended✅ - I have never eat this type of best ever Rogni naan UK 😍

food was lukewarm when it arrived. the curry was bland and the peshwari naan tasted like a plain naan. the rest was nice. strange considering how good the quality is at the restaurant.

Food ordered at 7.35 and delivered after 21 hours. I refused the order as I had to go out to find food to feed my family. Unacceptable!

Lovely food! Brilliant customer service thank you malik!!!

Top draw the mix grill starter and lamb on the bone Karahi is the one……ask for malik he’s the man 🔥

Only got a cup of karak chai (real Indian spice tea) and it was reasonably priced compared to the other places, good size and very authentic tasting. The food options looked and smelled delicious

Paid and not received my food. called restaurant and food was delivered elsewhere and restaurant called just eat and they was no use email them to get refund after waiting 2 hours

Food is lush but rice is way too spicy for kids to eat

Amazing food. Lamb charsi karahi was delicious and full of flavours. One of the best Lamb karahi I have tasted by a mile.

Nice take out service and nice food….nice service by bhavinbhai

Great food better customer service .. strongly recommend!!!

Very nice service from bhavin bhaliya for delivery drivers

Tooting Restaurant offers a delightful blend of flavors with its fresh, delicious dishes and warm, friendly atmosphere. A must-visit spot for a memorable dining experience!

There was a roaring trade of Uber Eats drivers and other diners when we arrived. However, ALL of the Naans, rotis and parathas were made with almonds and pistachios so none were suitable for a nut allergy. Really surprising and unexpected. And we found the service a bit rude - we kept having to explain we were a table of four, waiting for our friends to arrive, then took ages to take our order, and yet when we had finished they couldn't have made us feel more rushed out the door if they tried. Curries were fine. BYOB is good. But wouldn't rush back

Nice service by Bhavin brother 😘

Great food, freshly cooked and quickly served without fanfare. A little too spicy for my taste, but the great flavours shine through, and I could have asked for lightly spiced food. Paneer Tikka was excellent, as was the Mutton Dhansak. Portion sizes are good, but not generous. Was fairly quiet at 5.30 on a Friday evening but was MUCH busier and hour or so later when we left.

Ordered from uber eats very disappointed as what was delivered tasted nothing like what we had in restaurant and we even ordered the same thing ☹️

Amazing cultural food with mind blowing taste.

Best Pakistani food ever I head good service 7 star

Chicken curry not properly cooked,chicken was very hard to eat😡

I recently dined at Lahore Karhai and unfortunately, the experience was far from satisfactory. While I was looking forward to enjoying some flavorful dishes, the execution left much to be desired. To start, the mango lassi was overly thick, making it more like a mango dessert than a refreshing drink. It was difficult to enjoy as a complement to the meal. The papri chaat, which is typically a highlight in such a meal, was another disappointment. The yogurt was far too salty, overpowering the other flavors and making the dish unbalanced. The service was another major letdown. Our starter arrived a full 25 minutes late. The staff seemed disorganized and inattentive, adding to the frustration. Overall, the experience was disappointing, and it’s unlikely that I would return or recommend it to others.

The food is so so amazing, wonderful vibe and our server Nadia was amazing :)

Atif was fantastic very delicious food & great service.

We travelled for 2 hours , we were hungry. Nice welcome. I was absolutley gutted that our onion bahjis and samosas were heated up in the microwave . Such a let down.

Fantastic meal at Lahore Karahi and great service from Arslan

Had dinner here with friends. Delicious food and great service. Would recommend the chicken karahi!

I was in London for the day and was looking for a good halal restaurant to grab some lunch. The food was nice however I ordered chips and received them right at the end of my meal. I did not receive an apology or anything. The restaurant has the Palestine flag on the screen so I thought they might sell other non-BDS drinks like Irn Bru but only had Coca Cola drink options.

Best Gosht I've had in a long time.

Have been coming to LK since I moved to Tooting - having tried other places, we now only come back here. The food is always incredible, the service is fast and friendly and there is always a great atmosphere. One of our favourite restaurants in London!

Delicious food and excellent service from Atta! Mutton Dhansak was lovely

Atta is a lovely man thank you best curry house in tooting

Hands down the best curry in London, our favourite for over 10 years and just gets better, unbeatable. The staff always take the best care of you. See you soon

Nice and fast delivery and take away service ....by bhavinbhai ....nice food recommended

Excellent Service Food was delicious. Highly recommended

The food was ok but cleanliness was horrible. Received lassi in a dirty glass! 🤢🤢

Excellent serves Food very delicious ..

Excellent food and service. Atif gave exceptional service. I would love to visit this restaurant again.

justeat should fix their website on my desk top computer. I allow all cookies but it looks like their website crashes. something about can't find the ip address. The restaurants, including lahore karahi are really good. golden palace deliver two hours late, I don't know what is happening there. But your service is mostly user friendly and good.

Amazing foods and friendly people with efficient service. It is not much money need to eat dinner with friends. Reasonable prices. Thank you!

Amazingly friendly, tasty foods.

Its best resturant in the london .The food is very good and maaz give us ver good service .

Really amazing and delicious food with fast service for food. Recommended.

I have tried it once, it was wonderful experience

Travelled 1 hour to this Pakistani restaurant. It is located on main road with many other restaurants nearby. Parking is restricted on side roads and can take time looking for a spot. We entered the restaurant and it was busy with loud conversations from people eating. It was a open kitchen as we walked pass to be seated. Restaurant is big with 2 floors, clean with modern decor. Menu was given to us and we ordered our food. The food arrived in 20 minutes or so. It was hot and good portion. We asked for water jug 3 times as staff either forgot or didnt know what table. Food was tasty and affordable. Food 8/10 Service 6/10

Delicious food and excellent service, Especially our server Farhan is excellent.

Great food. Ordered meat biryani, mutton korma, tarka daal and lassi. Everything was full of flavour and very filling. Staff were patient and polite, especially our server. There was a little bit of waiting time but this was likely due to how busy it was. Would come here again.

Impeccable service and lovely conversation from Arslan. Food was great.

We went for dinner and it was so delicious. We ordered the butter chicken, lamb karahi, mixed grill, pilau rice and keema naan. Everything was so fresh and very tasty. Would recommend this restaurant to everyone. Also thank you to Aslan for answering all our questions and providing a great service. We will definitely be back again soon!

Nice take out service.....by bhavin....highly recommended restaurant....nice food

Very good Indian Pakistani restaurant. Ordered many different things, all good. Be careful with the spicy! 🌶

This is one of the best places for Pakistani food in London. I tried it out during a recent visit to London from San Francisco. The keema naan, karahi, butter chicken, and tea were amazing. We also got great service from the staff. Arsalan in particular stood out as a very friendly and attentive member of the staff.

Nice and fast delivery service ....by takeaway special by gujarati guys....bhavin and jay....nice food

Had gone because of a recommendation I saw online. Food was bland according to my taste the mixed grill was warm and not sizzling hot straight from the grill as one would expect... Average joint, nothing exceptional.

Main dishes were delivered cold, bhajis also cold. We were left short a garlic naan bread and popodoms from order - was told on the phone this was JustEats fault when really fault of this specifically was with the restaurant when packing bags. Then unable to deliver out missing items after already paying for them. I usually eat from here as I am local to the area, but won't be eating here again. Sorry to say this, but a disappointing service and meal!

The falooda had spilt and so much of it was gone. There was hardly any filling in it. The kulfi pots were extremely small and had almost melted. A cooler bag should have been used. Very very disappointed

The reason why there are so many good reviews given is because alcohol is allowed to be taken in this restaurant, the salad was very old and Lahore Karahi do not have shame to give fresh salad and only give one or two fresh slices of cucumber; the meat karahi was old and only extra masala and spices was added to the karahi and after that I had diarrhoea and now I'm not well thanks to Lahore Karahi, the roti was small and really pricey for 3 and I was overcharged. All in all; I have to say that I have been to many restaurants especially Pakistani restaurants but all the time when I go, the food and salad is always old and pre-prepared in the window of where the food is displayed whilst you go to Afghani, Arab or Turkish food and preparation of food and salad is 100% fresh and they display this in front of you unlike Pakistani restaurants.

Arslan provided speedy service! Our regular spot for great food!

wouldn't use this restaurant again if they were giving away the food. delivered cold the food was vile. korma had cubes of chicken floating in a sauce that tasted like salty cream. bunna flooded with oil tasted like over spiced bistro gravy and my vegetable biryani was over spiced had 1 large chunk of green pepper a few bits of carrot and loads of potato. save your money and get a curry pot noodle much better option.

it's one of the best restaurant in the london for indian cuisian . it will more hygiene, staff will be co operative specially receiption staff and packaging staff i personally meet them and many more amazing things which can't explain in few words

Really good food. Had butter chicken and really enjoyed it. The staff were really kind, especially Arsalan who served us 🤌🏼

I'd eaten at this canteen style restaurant many times over the years and found it ok. Our recent takeaway was awful - onion bhaji good, prawn dish passable, chicken tikka masala was disgusting (cream type stuff, overly sweet, couple of bits of chicken) , saag paneer was disgusting (mass of industrial green vegetable matter, couple of bits of paneer, no flavour) the madras was passable. Won't be ordering from here again.

Arslan great as always! great food! be back again

Don't understand the reviews here, we were not very hungry so decided to only order starters and everything was bad. The worst was the fish tikka, super oily fish and we were told it's Cod - cannot believe cod will be so thin, oily and tasteless. Won't list the other things, maybe I was expecting to taste like the punjabi samosas, aloo tikki and paneer tikka we are used to in Indian cuisine but we mostly ate the naan and salad to fill up. When even the chapli kebab came rubber tasting and nuked in the microwave, we understood it to be the establishment. Do not come here for anything non curry - as it's kept fully cooked and then given to you microwaved. The mango lassi is excellent however and we would order the kulfi shake again (minus the whipped cream and sprinkles which are not needed but I get it looks nicer on!)

Real decent but there's better places for south Asian cuisine across the road!

Great food and service. Busy and very noisy.

We ordered from this place via Uber eats. Not only food was delayed by 30 minutes but also it wasn’t tasty at all. Butter chicken wasn’t well prepared - oil was separating from the sauce (see photo) and that’s not my experience of good butter chicken. Chicken tikka masala was so runny that you could eat it like a soup. Not recommend. Will not order again.

I've been promising myself I would visit this restaurant for 30years and finally made it today!!! I'm asking myself, what took me so long? The food, I had prawn tikka and homemade nan, absolutely delicious 😋. Service was quick, even though my meal was cooked to order. Staff were pleasant, the restaurant clean and fresh. A really enjoyable lunch, I'll be back, won't leave it as long next time!

I would not recommend. There are much better places than here. Booked for 9pm to find out our table wasn’t reserved and had to wait 10 minutes. Very loud and waitering staff do not have good attention to detail. Had to ask for water 3 times. The food was dead and looked nothing like it was presented online. Avoid the masala prawns. They are tiny. The chicken Karahi was lacking in taste and the other gravies were flat too. Their only success was pilau rice. I will not be going back.

Amazing food and very fast service. If I lived in the area, this would be my go-to place.

waited over an hour and the restraunt sent the wrong order. when I called the restraunt i got no answer

Great service, decent food and fair prices Highlights: paneer saag, keema naan

Disgusted at the customer service and even for their workers, yesterday I came I got 2 poppadoms for £1 from a lovely man today they told me it was £1 when asked how it was extra over a night a man who seemed to be ' manager' was quite passive aggressive when I asked how it went up over night then stating who sold it for £1 and I said a lovely man he said I know who and I am firing them!! I will not be coming here as if it weren't for your workers you would be nothing!

Food okay. Service shocking. Kicked off the table within 1 second of paying. Not attentive at all. Told to shut up by the waiter in what is essentially a loud and busy restaurant. Waiter told us we could stay and sit down for longer if we didn’t give a bad review after complaining about the service. All hype

Got told to be quiet because someone complained about the noise of the restaurant. Staff were baffled when we asked for pates to be cleared. Paid the bill and immediately got told to leave the table until we said we were leaving a review to which we got told to stay as long as we wanted. Wouldn’t recommend to anyone - absolute joke of a place

Food was delicious, as was the service. Our waiter Nadia was as amazing!

I didn't receive the delivery and is still chasing it up now. leaving starving people in the house

Very tasty food & fine chai, but we had to wait a long time.

Nadia was amazing, great service. Amazing food and great value

Beast service always great food been always very friendly 7 star

Dishes we ordered were precooked. Asked for a jug of water 4 times before getting it. Perhaps we have to try very hard and wait for things that they can't charge. It is more like a canteen than a restaurant; especially in terms of services but not the prices.

I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve been here, but the food never fails to be absolutely delicious. Nadia was a delight and once again, they made sure my (extremely rare and admittedly difficult to cater to!) dietary requirements were followed.

Has always been my favourite and will always be my favourite. The best food as always guys, Malik always looks after us. Been going for 6 years and will as usual return. Thanks Guys!

Lovely food and the best service totally recommend it

Found the place seriously overhyped. My wife has an allergy and I explained it several times to two waiters ; but was totally ignored. At the end of the meal, I explained to the waiters who told me that all their food contained said ingredients- maybe they could have said before. Waiters were incredibly grumpy for some reason and several times they stopped serving to watch the television. Also ordered nuggets and chips for my daughter. Couldn't let her eat them- looked like they had been using the same oil for at least a week. Not impressed at all Also lock was broken on toilet door in gents. Seriously? It costs £5 to buy a new one!

Nihari was incredibly watery which was really disappointing. I’ve never had nihari like that before. Naan breads weren’t kept separately even though we ordered 2 different flavours. Samosa chat was cold. Prawns lacked a bit of flavour and were just sent as prawns in a box without any form of greenery, at £13 per portion, we expected something a little better.

Beautiful and tasty restaurant in London yummy food and delicious breakfast and more

Lovely food!! Always there on Friday evening 😄 fish masala Karachi is superb! Thank you Nadia for best service :)))
