Lahore Kebabish in Cardiff

Food is absolutely a must try for anyone with adventurous taste buds

Normal quality food but expensive.

I recently dined at Lahore Kebabish and was thoroughly impressed. My main reason for visiting was the legendary biryani I'd heard so much about, and let me tell you, the hype is real. The biryani was incredibly flavorful, perfectly cooked, and served in a generous portion that left me feeling completely satisfied. What struck me most, however, was the incredible value for money. For the quality and quantity of food I received, the price was exceptionally reasonable, making this a truly affordable and delicious meal. But the biryani wasn't the only highlight of my visit. I also sampled their mixed grill, and it quickly became a contender for one of the best I've ever tasted. The meats were incredibly tender and juicy, expertly seasoned, and cooked to perfection. The variety of meats offered in the mixed grill was impressive, catering to a range of preferences. The overall presentation of the dish was also noteworthy, showcasing the care and attention to detail that the kitchen clearly prioritizes. The service was friendly and efficient, adding to the overall positive experience. The atmosphere was pleasant and relaxed, making it a comfortable place to enjoy a meal, whether you're dining alone, with a partner, or with a group of friends. In short, Lahore Kebabish is a fantastic place to enjoy incredibly tasty and affordable food. The biryani is a must-try, but don't miss the opportunity to sample their exceptional mixed grill. I highly recommend this restaurant and will definitely be returning for another visit soon.

Food is very nice fresh Same like lahori taste And shop very clean. Good price 👍

Very nice and delicious food quick service and the staff is very friendly but hassan brother is my favorite.

so authentic and the staff are so sweet! will come again

Had kebab roll chapli kebab and lamb seeks kebab, all the food was very nice.

Food, customer service, ambience everything is superb 👌

We ordered chicken tikka roll and meat roll. But they served on a nan bread, not rolled. Then, the guy who took our order told us, if we order Chai, we'll get a set price which is cheaper. When we done with our meals, time to pay. Now.. This is the best part. They charged us chicken tikka, nan bread and Chai separately. Cunning eh.. After that, the cashier guy made a scene. Claiming that half of us didn't pay our food. In fact, we already paid. After we go thru one by one and we found out that he wanted to double charged us. Then, he said that we were confusing him. Now, who is confused?

Alright. Got charged £2 for plain yoghurt as a side. Thought I'd give this viewpoint to share, as it was important to note. I went to pay for my meal and calculated the cost before, so when he told me my meal cost above £30 I raised it with him. Incase you have yoghurt on the side extra, you'll incur a £2 extra charge.That is what I was told by the older man who charged me at the till. The yoghurt that I am pointing out, you can request on the side, as its not on the menu, and I always do. It didn't feel comfortable to experience that from him, and me, as a younger lady pointing out to him that he'd overcharged me. To which he responded that I was charged a £2 for a small bowl of yoghurt. I wonder if what he did was normal, as yoghurt is usually not given as an extra charge. Thanks.

A few dishes are amazing, and few are average. Recommend Bar B Q tiems

Guy said waiting time is 10 min. Served food after 40 mins and ruined food. Offered to replace with something esle and that too was abysmal. Worthless place. Would never visit again.

Need more decoration and clean

Conozco a estos tipos desde hace mucho tiempo. Saben cómo cuidar de los clientes viejos y nuevos. Sirven auténtica cocina pakistaní. no olvide probar su keema nan. Es lo mejor. El ambiente es relajado y el servicio rápido y atento. El mejor biryani en Gales del Sur y si pides pollo recién cocinado karahi - lo hacen y es sabroso. Simplemente me encanta

Nice food with reasonable price

Briyani was very tasty with the meat curry naan bread very soft and crunchy definitely recommend

Best kebab in Cardiff at the moment, very good chicken tikka too, very cheap too. They have moved a few doors down to a much bigger place, now has 10 big tables. Also you must try the tea

We had takeaway for 2 people, only cost £15, it was absolutely delicious 😋, full of flavour, lots of meat , well worth the money, definitely will have it again 👌

Coming From Derby, our experience was really good.Platter was really nice, Great Naans and Briyani was good as well

We came all the way from London to Cardiff and we were looking for a good place to eat. We eat from Lahore kababish. It was looking nice from outside. But food was tasteless ,service was very slow, mutton curry was not fresh….platter was not worth with money it was covered with chips….

Warm welcome nice hot food recommended for all families

Maravillosa comida ambiente relajado Nada pretencioso, auténtico estilo café, muy limpio, comida cocinada estilo casero. Date un capricho De y realmente gran valor!

Staff is so welcoming and amazing. From server to cook to person on the counter. Food is amazing as well. Best place to get fresh plain naans 🫶🏻

Over priced as compared the quality They recommend mix grill Lamb chops were hardly got meat Skiny

Food wasn’t fresh at all just with the exception of naan , rest appeared quite stale !!

Great place to eat very friendly staff great food amazing atmosphere

We had the Nihari, Mixed grill platter, Samosa Chaat & Mango lassi, everything was superb, we couldn’t stop eating. The service was very good too. 🫶🏼

I tried mixed platters, butter chicken and beef minced. The taste was good but the beef minced was not good

A delightful and delicious array of freshly made, and cooked, Far-Eastern Cuisine. Their home made kebab in freshly made naan is amazing, hence I've been a customer for over a decade! Samosas and Pakoras-a-plenty! Well recommended... The best kebabish in Cardiff!!

By a mile, my favourite inexpensive meal out in Cardiff. Big spicing, big flavour: the keema naan is probably the best £3 you can spend in the city right now.

A really friendly restaurant with delicious, tasty and fresh food. Wonderful.

The food was very good I come here 2 times a week i recommend everyone to come here they have the best Curry’s and rice and the staff are very friendly

Food was really fantastic, service is very good.. Thanks to Nazmul hasan bhai for providing food fastly

Food was fantastic and real flavour. Nehari and paya was best..Thanks to Nazmul Hasan for providing such hot and well served food. Surely will visit again.

Lahori Kebabish is a hidden gem for anyone craving authentic Pakistani flavors. I recently dined here and was blown away by the delicious Nihari and Paya. The slow-cooked dishes were bursting with flavor and paired perfectly with freshly baked naan. What truly set this experience apart was the exceptional service provided by Hasan. He was attentive, knowledgeable, and made our dining experience truly memorable. If you're in the mood for delicious food and top-notch service, look no further than Lahori Kebabish. Highly recommend!

Over there years have been many times even when they were few doors down in there smaller shop. There food not bad prity much what it has allways been but now over priced.

Been here twice now, the food is sub-standard to be honest. They charge £9-£12 for curries that they simply re-heat , not worth it all especially if it's not fresh. Tikka is that cheap slimy chicken thighs so a lot of corners are cut in this place. Service is fine so not too much to complain about there but you pay for what you get.

I've visited this place four times now, and today I had the pleasure of being served by Hashan, the floor manager. He's an absolute gem, providing service that goes beyond five stars. The food is already fantastic, but Hashan's exceptional service truly elevates the experience to something unforgettable.

Delicious food and for a good price too

Worst place ever. Food portions very small and over priced. Tasteless food naver going back

I have Lahore saved into my sat nav, and have for many years. Whenever I'm working in the Cardiff area, a trip to Lahore Kebabish for food takes me to my happy place 🥰. I usually have the mixed roll with all the salad and sauces, but I've also tried their curries to take home as well. I can't say enough nice things about this restaurant, I've been a Lahore Kebabish fan for many years, and the food is straight out of the top drawer. Absolutely delicious. 😋😋😋😋😋😋

I have been eating here whenever in Cardiff ( including when the shop was smaller and next door). Yummy food as always and friendly staff. My son's first visit. He loves it. Ate a full meal, and then ordered a takeaway, which he is now eating at 2:00 in the morning! I always go back. My son will too, every time we are in Cardiff.

Excellent foot at an amazing price

Since I first stumbled across this restaurant I’ve been back several times and told all my friends. The food is authentic and absolutely delicious I’ve had the mixed grill which was amazing I’ve had several curries all superb Sides of lamb shish- pakoras-garlic nan are all great Please note that they don’t serve alcohol Dine in or take away id highly recommended and the prices are so reasonable!!

I had been to visit Pakistan some years ago on a trip with my partner and this place really bought back some memories. It is really delicious:)

We were served by Hassaan. Absolutely a wonderful guy; polite and friendly. Also, one of the only Pakistani food which I came across in Cardiff.

The clue was in the business name: Lahore, which means I got a Pakistani takeaway and not the Indian I was expecting. I ordered Chicken Biryani with plain madras sauce and 1 chapati. I received 1 bread which looked like a naan bread but I'm not sure - it didn't look like or pull apart like the chapati bread I usually enjoy from other takeaways. The biriyani rice was nice but the chicken WAS ON THE BONE! My first task was to debone the chicken, which left me with a paltry amount of meat and a couple of bones that had escaped my notice. Lastly, the 'plain madras sauce' was a small container of curry sauce and almost an equal amount of oil that I had to drain out in order to get to the sauce. Then I had to soak up the remaining oil with kitchen towel. I wanted to take the entire meal back and demand a refund but I couldn't be bothered. I knew I would never go back there again. I just wish they had had the decency to ask me about my preferences than to prepare a meal that was clearly NOT what I was expecting. Be warned. Pakistani food is NOT the same as Indian food.

Good quality pakistani halal food

My first visit here. After googling reviews for the best Lamb Nihari in Cardiff. The food did not disappoint. I had the slow cooked lamb on bone desi style curry. A rich flavoured sauce. Pungent spiced with fragrance and depth. But without the chilli heat. Absolutely superb cooking by Numan the resident chef. My partner had the Tandoori Chicken. Which was tender, moist and delicately spiced. We also ordered lamb chop tikka. Again, tender, succulent and a real flavour bomb... We were welcomed by Hasan. Who was front of house. He was very friendly and attentive and gave us advice on the menu. Lahore Kebabish is a cafe style Bangladeshi eatery. Simple tables and chairs. All the food is cooked in front of you, on full display.... Highly recommended and will be going again.... 🌶

This restaurant/take away has actually moved from 160 Penarth Rd to 174 Penarth Rd * It’s situated on the same side of the road but a much bigger premises. What you’ll get here is authentic Pakistani cuisine which is incredibly delicious at very reasonable prices The waiting staff are knowledgeable about the food and eager to please We stopped off here on our walk home after the football on Wednesday night What we ordered was so good we actually ordered several more dishes to try There were three of us and we were all impressed They do not serve alcohol but that didn’t detract from the amazing cuisine on offer Look at the picture of the naan breads - I can’t remember what they were called but were unbelievable Three of us all left stuffed and the bill was a mere £50 I honestly can’t wait to return and it will probably be tomorrow for lunch I highly recommend!!!

The Food is Delicious I Would Say The Roghni Nan Is 10/10

Love the amazing authentic Pakistani food served here. I eat here regularly and have never felt let down. The tandoori chicken tikka is one of the best chicken dish I have ever tasted.

This uncle at the counter is so unfriendly. Has zero respect. Handles food bare-handed - literally handled all my food with his bare, dirty hands. No hand washing prior. Handles cash etc with the same hands too. The other guys are so friendly especially the cook with the big beard. But this old mans so cranky. Someone needs to tell him to stop being so abrupt and rude.

Great vegetation good. Really good value for money.

vast Pakistani menu and authentic taste Service is great keep it up

Had a very bad stomach for 2 days after eating their naans, the dough was not fresh at all and the naan was not cooked properly.

One of the Best Restaurants Around Wales, United Kingdom 🇬🇧 Halal food is also their plus point. I Recommend them to everyone.

Got 8 Tandoori rotis takeaway , my experience was marred by the discovery of hair in my food , the order was picked up by my family member and when I went back with my concern the manager was so rude to me ,the lack of empathy and professionalism is disheartening , if you think so that without any reason I’m making reviews plz check ur record that I ordered 8 tandoori rotis for takeaway on Sunday lunch time , and plz check the recording who was being harsh first . Thanks

The BBQ mix grill was amazing plenty of meat choices and grilled to perfection and alot of sauce and salad options they also do curries will try next time

Yakhni very good. A Sylhety flavour found in the yakhni.

Mostly I have a nice dinner with my children and friends ☺

Despite cafe style outlay, food and stuff are great... I'm a regular to this place...

Nice place to visit prices are very good and tasty food available here near to central station Cardiff UK Pakistani good halal serving here

Really nice place and affordable I take the family there every week and we try different things from the menu.great atmosphere the kids love it.

Amazing food!! very friendly service, enjoyed their delicious food which was mouth smacking ..As a chef, I would rate a over all 10/10. Totally recommend their chapli kebab🤌

Fantastic food at reasonable prices. I had the chicken jalfrezi, and it tasted amazing. My boys (9 & 14) had the kebab roll (lamb kofta on naan with salad and chips) and both absolutely loved it. The staff were welcoming, helpful and extremely pleasant and courteous. I felt very well looked after. I will definitely be going again.

Biggest SCAM in Cardif. Very dissapointing experience. The pre- prepared chicken karahi( read - shorba) was warmed ( still cold) in the microwave. They should atleast have the curtesy to re- heat on the stove- to give it a fresh hot vibe. But lo and behold the week old fried samosa was warmed in the micro - and it was stale...couldnt even bite it let alone that a samosa is supposed to be crispy. The only thing the Chef was doing was preparing fresh naans or rotis. Kudos to that effort since the food was so disappointing. On top of that when the chef was told that the samosas were stale and badly done he had the audacity to say ' its just your bad luck ' we fry them in the morning. Well I hope you close down for your SCAM

Good food. Halal. Cleanliness is a bit down. But deshi food you can get here with reasonable price.

Delicious food and super friendly staff. Mixed grill was excellent highly recommended

Food poisoning waiting to happen dirtiest place I ve eaten. Staff touching raw chicken and cooked food and making naans with out washing hands absolutely horrible scenes

Can't fault this place, authentic Pakistani food, reasonable prices and amazing service

We collected a takeaway, but were a little early for it. We know the freshly cooked roti was freshly cooked, because we watched them cook it! The food was excellent. The slow cooked lamb was tender and the best we've had. Overall, the food was incredible. This is definitely somewhere worth a detour.

tasty food and reasonable price. Big portions. quick service. plenty of options

Ordered chicken biryani was tasty .chicken jalfarazi wasn't good in taste .

They have no clue what they are doing.

Authentic, amazing and cheap Pakistani food

Very nice food and good service.. well done bro. I am abu Anas😂

Lahore Kababish truly shines in terms of affordability. The prices were very reasonable and the food was delicious and well cooked

Nice place, nice food but outside u could smell smokers smoking from outside even.

If you want to tickle your taste buds then you need to visit this place for some nice tasty food... Price very reasonable compared to other restaurants.. And service was very good.. They do serve some savory as well.. Recommended the aloo tikki..

Food is always delicious and cooked to perfection each time. Staff are very polite and helpful! We are returning customers and love to come as a family!

I've been working in the area for some time and had been meaning to venture into this culinary goldmine. Staff very friendly,welcoming and attentive,discussed options and different spice strengths. Opted for slow cooked chicken curry,boiled rice and side salad. Salad nice and fresh to cleanse the palate,rice light and fluffy,as for the chicken curry,soft enough to cut with a spoon and extremely tender. Had a chat with the chef and after complementing him on his undoubtable talent in the kitchen,promised to return and try his other creations 10/10. This place is faultless. David

If you wanna try authentic Pakistani cuisine this is the place to go Went there tonight with my sons Picky eaters but the love the food Freshly made curries and roties very helpful and friendly staff This place is brilliant Definitely recommended 5 stars all the way

Had a lovely meal here Ma’Sha’Allah, some of the best authentic Pakistani cuisine around. There was a wide selection of food to choose from. I bought a few different types of curries, which were fresh as can be and tasted amazing, and was made very quickly. It reminded me very much of the food I grew up on back in my home country, but on a higher end level and a great price. Servers and host were very friendly and polite and even gave me a complimentary chapati! The shop itself was very clean and tidy, as were the bathrooms. Perfect for a family outing or coming alone, highly recommend.

This shop needs more attention. Literally the food was fresh made you can taste it and the lamb fell right off the bone The naan was surprisingly Really good even though i don't really like naan and the best part it's actually owned by Pakistanis. My order was Lamb curry Haleem Tandori naan Roti I would recommend you try But overall I would give it 9.7/10

Best food in Cardiff by far pure homemade pakistani I’m a student everytime I eat here I miss my mom’s cooking The negative review at bottom is very wrong as I was there because they didn’t get a discount the whole family left a bad review disgrace to these guys

Staff attitude needs to change asap… poor service

Poor service, the food choices were limited, only half the advertised dishes… for £8.50 you can get 1/2kg karhai @ Khayber!! Recently service has gone down… staff must do more to address their attitude otherwise it will sink which is a shame since their food is really nice

Recently the restaurant has suffered big time… they did not have half the dishes we ordered and only had one bottle of coke (this is on Saturday evening, bearing in mind before the peak hrs around 6ish)… we got served in polystyrene cups! I’m sorry but this is no way to run a restaurant

I went there today. I was looking for Pakistani food in the area and this place showed up my search results. I was really impressed by the quality and taste of food, serving and overall cleanliness of the restaurant. Normally I don't give 5 stars to a restaurant unless all those things are really good. In this case everything was amazing. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for excellent food.

Food here is excellent, nice staff

This is Yakhni pulao.First time try this food.Its too much tasty.Mutton pieces just wow,juicy and soft. Place,Services,Quality and Quantity its lovely....

This business has excellent food (indian/pakistani ) ..was previously located on the same road, penarth rd, in a smaller building ...this place has plenty of tables ..so u can eat in or take away ..well priced too

Overall a good experience. However lahori tastebuds will struggle to relate the food with traditional lahori taste but it’s a good place for desi food and a must try!

Really disappointed 😞 Ordered daal,which guy warmed in microwave,so was tastless,was dry aswell,small portion was £6.50 on it's own which is way over priced. Ordered tea,requested twice to make it strong but get tea which was taste liked boiled milk,I spil it away. Guys sort your curries & tea ,rest of the food I don't know. My £8.75 being wastes.

Best curry in cardiff/penarth.flavors are bangging we had 3 different curry's and tasty they all had their own flavour going there again.

Best curry in Cardiff/penarth by far beuteeful

one of the best food in Cardiff they have established for over 15 years the food is like very homemade and authentic you should try the kebabs as well best kebabs in Cardiff Try it your self Thanks

Very Good food, I'm a Non Veg all available what I want, Staff are also very friendly, Very reasonable price, I walk down there from my place to15 minutes to walk, we went there 3 people two of the my Hindu friends they are also like the Food, Good Service and area is clean.

Very much quality food with a reasonable price. Food was hot and quite good portion. Best Masla Fish & Butter Naan found in this restaurant.
