Lahore Spices in Sutton

Good punjabi style food with authentic taste. Recently ordered a dinner for 40 people. Food arrived fresh and hot, to everyones delight.

Ordered a delivery, 4 out of 6 dishes missing. Rubbish, don't use them.

My boy Nim and I went , really bad poo poo after

Food was very disgusting no taste i will not prefer anyone to visit it or eat anything we have wasted all money whatever we have ordered was disgusting no taste

Here I m re writing the review because I like this weekend special nihari it's delicious u should try their rest of food is not so good like their pakistani korma and briyani so on so on but their nihari , lamb karahi, paya with garlic naan is really nice

I have visited Lahore Spices along with my mum this evening and bought Pakoras today.. Excellent customer service and quantity was more than enough for two people.. overall excellent experience.. Would go again to try other dishes like biryani and other yummy curries that I have seen today.. Highly recommend to everyone who wants to try the best cuisine in town.. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Really bad and oily. Couldnt eat it. Ps. Prepare to need the toilet.

Great food and the service is really good. We enjoyed the atmosphere. Would recommend 👌

Best Food strongly Recommend Fresh, Good taste & perfect blend of spice Ordered 30pax food for Birthday its was great. Thank you Team Lahore spices

Great food however food via delivery is unreliable

It’s been almost 7 years that we order for collection always the same thing, chicken methi and plain rice , we used to love this dish but lately is going worst and worst until today that we actually find a thin and long piece of plastic , which is not only disgusting but quite dangerous , as I almost chocked. The quality, presentation and taste of the food is terrible right now so with a lot of disappointment we won’t return anymore!!!

Went to Lahore for dinner last Monday evening, and we did not order a lot as we were not that famish. What we ordered was quite adequate and we almost ate the lot, the little bit left, we asked for a container and took it home. Like always we enjoyed the food and the service was good.

Awful experience eating here today. We ordered a mixed grill which had really hard meat pieces. The butter chicken had so much butter it overpowered the dish. The service is ok.

Great food great prices beautiful vegetable samosas and the kebab roll is great too!

Great food and very reasonable prices.

Been there twice twice this week, got the kebab roll on Thursday, lovely but with mostly all kebab rolls it's nice, the Friday had the chicken biryani, what can I say, good portion and really good biryani no doubt, tasty. Also the staff are very friendly, welcoming, great service.

Worst food and service of my life ordered special chicken Karahi £25 for 4 people God they too much garam masala horrible taste ,made complain then they made again that was even more worst

We came all the way from Bournemouth ordered Special chicken Karahi (£25) Ridiculous taste put too much garam masala and spices we made complain and he made again a small portion it was even worst then that ,really disappointed went there because of Maqsood (owner ) but really disappointed if want to eat nice then Dawat tooting ,Namak Mandi tooting highly recommend

Pleasant staff and nice atmosphere walked in for a takeaway order didn't take long and food was very enjoyable and was a fair price will definitely go again!

Ordered on Uber eats, took the food long time to reach, the potatoes in the sindhi biryani were stale, the kebabs had a slight smell l, but the tandoori chicken was nice. Overall the sindhi biryani was tasty but it was too spicy with stale potatoes

Really nice restaurant good food and well priced. Bring your own drink allowed.

Superb food. The curries are great, properly spiced and tasty. Service needs work, they are cutting a fine line between restaurant and take away, but I think the latter is prioritised. Great food though.

One of the perfect restaurant for indian,asian and chinese cuisines. They have enough seating for small partys as well. And one major benefit of this restaurant is that customers can bring their own drinks from outside and they don't charge for it and we can have good food as well. Best wishes for the lahore spices team.

I got a take away from this place the chicken tikka Malasa was highly disappointing taste of pure milk the colour was completely off, the samosas were hard couldn’t bite into it. The only edible bit was the garlic narm bread which I would recommend

Cannot say enough wonderful things about this great Pakistani restaurant as soon as we came in they sat us down and brought lots of things onto the table we ordered were taken with diligence and the waiter suggested certain dishes will be better suited to my son the food came lovely hot and fresh the only thing was they have forgotten one side order which I had to chase them down for but it came very quickly and they piled on some extra drinks because of the weight it's incredibly cheap as well.

Another one of those restaurants that tricks u by not giving complimentary vegetables dish when ordering biyriani but their food does have a unique nice flavour

Taste was poor for the dishes ordered both veg/nonveg, worst tasting dried out stale chicken and poor tasteless paneer.The Naans were not even freshly baked these were reheated store bought ones. Honestly if we have to eat stale naans we can buy it from the grocery store and why would we bother ordering from you? Even the good grocery store ones are better than what was provided. Extremely disappointed food not coming back and neither will recommend to anyone! Skip if you can.

Disgusting and filthy place, food quality is terrible. Not sure how this place is allowed to run on the high street.

Very good and very tasty Pakistani food. Very rarely have we had good indian/Pakistani/Bengali takeaways. This is a rare exception well worth it. Would recommend the meat byriani and lamb handi!

I felt to give negative rating for this restaurant but unfortunately we don’t have option to it. I had been here first time and the last time. The services are pathetic.

Ordered a take out last night, Butter chicken was swimming in oil , tried it after pouring oil off , couldn’t eat it , mushroom rice looked ok but I’d been put off by now , also the onion bhajis wasn’t cooked through & keema nan looked ok but wasn’t going to eat it after all , picked at a bit of it , then Binned it , I will stick to Indian as this is the third time now I’ve tried Pakistani food & haven’t had a good experience,, Never again,,, I might have been an off night but not happy whatsoever with that take out.

I order a take away last night, the worst t Chicken tikka masala I've ever had, extremely oversalted and tasted cheesy, it tasted NOTHING like a chicken tikka masala.. We had throw away more than half of the order since it was inedible. The only half decent item was the naan bread. Overall the worst take out I've ever had.

Worst take out I've ever had. The chicken tikka masala was awful, extremely oversalted and tasted cheesy, it tasted NOTHING like a chicken tikka masala. The rest of the order was disgusting too, we had to throw away more than half of the food because it was inedible. The only acceptable item was the naan bread.

So rude and food was disgusting

I will not be ordering from here again!!!! The butter chicken was leaking everywhere and was the worst butter chicken I’ve ever had! Flavour was as if they used a pre made seasoning packet for 0.01p!!! It was so bad I could even eat the food with out gagging!!! The rice was “meh” but how difficult can it be. I can also say the rice had some crunchy parts. The naan was plain you might as well have dipped bread; the only flavour I got from the naan was the burn charcoal! I DONT RECOMMEND! Go here as your last resort!!!!

Overall food ok but very spicy. Mixed veg curry was extremely spicy and it was only potato and a slice of Carrot... Pilao rice very dry Well not sure if ever come back to be honest

Went with family and ordered a mix grill. Wow!!! So authentic. Honestly the best I have had in the Uk

If you love Pakistani food then it’s a great place to eat, you should not miss this restaurant. We tried vegetarian food and it was amazing. Try Mango lassi, Sag Paneer, butter paneer and naan. You can bring your bottles to drink as well. People were trying biryani too and it was looking tempting.

Fantastic cuisine and good service . Ambiance is nice and perfect.Food is delicious.you can try that as well. Recommended for all Asian out there.

UPDATE TO MY REVIEW BELOW [EDITED]: I visited Lahore Spices during Ramadan and ordered a mixed grill alongside a few other things off the menu. Whilst I understand the restaurant would be busy due to people wanting to break their fast, I was served a mixed grill that seemed like it had been cooked earlier that day & simply reheated in the microwave. I was extremely disappointed to see this & did find it quite odd that the mix grill came out quick after ordering it. Normally a mixed grill comes out sizzling but it didn’t on this occasion. The chicken & kebabs were very very dry & the lamp chops were really tough. The food was of course not fresh at all, and I made a complaint to the waiter who replaced the lamp chops but not the whole grill. I was half expecting not to pay for the mixed grill as I was not impressed however as it was Ramadan I didn’t want to make a fuss. Because of this experience, I will not be ordering or visiting Lahore Spices again as the food does not seem to be of good standard anymore and the service isn’t great either. Such a shame that a once great restaurant seems to have lost its touch. ————————————————————————— I regularly order from Lahore Spices and have been doing so for the last few years; given it’s the only local Pakistani restaurant in my area. I do enjoy the food, however on occasions it can be hit & miss! Sometimes the kebabs aren’t fully cooked and the biryani doesn’t have much chicken or meat. Although, majority of the time this isn’t the case, however there is definitely room for improvement in terms of the consistency of quality! Recently delivery times have been very long, and we’ve been waiting over an 1hr for the food to arrive. I hope this improves drastically in the future.

Very delicious authentic pakistani cuisine, tantalise the taste buds. Very good public transport connectivity and parking options around. Easy on the pocket. Good portions. All dishes tried so far tasted amazing... eating in i prefer as dnt taste as good when takeaway or delivery...

Food was good but tables were not cleaned, even spoons and forks were not cleaned as you find in any normal restaurants Atmosphere wise, overall okay, seating arrangements can be improved and definitely air conditioning.

Had a great meal with friends at Lahore Spices, Sutton

Went to Eat there the other day terrible service staff were very rude stared at us made us feel very uncomfortable we were never rude for some reason they just didn’t like us will never go there again. Food okay would not advise anyone to go there unless you want to be treated very badly.

Edit: 12 April 24 Probably last visit here. Food has gone downhill. Prices have gone up. There are many Indian/Pakistani places other than this one and I'll be visiting others now. I do a monthly visit here and usually the food is on the good side (provided you stick to some known ones). Food is oilier than I would like. Their freshly made tandoori roti and paratha are excellent. Last visit was a bit disappointing... The tandoori chicken and the chicken kebab were both tasteless and for a moment I thought I had COVID symptoms but their lamb kebabs saved the day. Recommended dishes - ginger chicken, karela ghost, mutton tikka, Dal tarka and bhindi (last time was not so good but is generally nice). Definitely recommended for a good Indian curry for decent price.

Excellent Dishes.....with mouth watering spice 😋

Ordered a Vindaloo which is my go-to when I have a cold, and I currently have one. I really like Vindaloo, and don't think it deserves the reputation some people give it of just being for people who want something stupidly hot with no interest in the actual flavors. The Vindaloo from Lahore is unfortunately exactly this. The taste was distinctly of very cheap tinned tomatoes, with a full jar of hot chilli powder stirred in. No potatoes. No fresh spices. Just unpleasant acidity and dry powdery heat. It's now in the bin. My rice also had a full clove of burned garlic in it.

Excellent food.. butter Naan was not good. Other than that good tasty food. Need to improve on customer service a little bit.

I’ve had food from Lahore Spices twice and both times it was a bad experience as the food they served had gone off. First time, I dined in the restaurant. The potatoes in the samosa chaat were off. Second time, I had their take away food at a friend place. The chicken biryani had gone off and it went straight to the bin. Never having food from this place again!

Delicious food, excellent service reasonably priced with amazingly good service. Dont miss the Halwa Puri and delicious chicken biryani

The staff at the restaurant was incredibly kind. I went there during iftar because I couldn't make it home in time to break my fast after work. Even though I ordered my food to go, the staff asked me to sit down and offered me free ruhafza (juice) and dates to break my fast.

One of the waiters offered my friend to take her to the toilet as she got up, then kept asking her how old she was! How shameful of this waiter and this restaurant!

Great Pakistani food and lovely friendly staff

Authentic food , bursting flavours , staff are nice and friendly.

If ordering from Deliveroo you will get free delivery above £25 and faster delivery compared to ordering from their app where they charge £2 extra for delivery and you receive order after 60 mins. Also when you call for update they seem not interested in talking to you and keep saying driver already left and you will still keep waiting for 15 more minutes.

Food was nice and flavoursome. Service and atmosphere served its purpose.

MarshaAllah proper busy, noisy in a good way, respectful place to enjoy all the traditional dishes. Been here quite a few times and probably eaten more times than I know, as it’s a popular location for Iftaar takeaways.

Wonderful food,would definitely go back again

Enjoyed dinner with friends, and Imtiaz is an excellent server. Food is authentic Indian unlike a lot of other grubby so-called Indian restaurants. Great place. Will come again.

Very rude staff. Ordered online. Item was missing. Called restaurant straight away to inform them. He insinuated I was lying and told me to come and get it myself if I want it. Very unprofessional.

Can you tell the chef to put something on his head? How can you serve food with hair? This is disgusting!

Excellent tasting food at reasonable prices! Definitely recommend compared to other “Indian” restaurants in the local area which are not authentic.

Popped into this restaurant with my family from abroad, food was really nice, might be a bit spicy for some but very tasty. Would defo go there again. Staff were helpful with choosing meal.

Generous portions, delicious flavour!

I have never ever written a one star review, BUT this one star rating is being generous. I can not exaggerate just how terrible the food has been for a family get together where we placed a large order with this establishment in November 2023. Previously, years prior, we enjoyed many enjoyable meals and takeouts from this establishment, and the older favourable reviews you will find here are justifiably. One assumes, however, at some point in the last few years there has been a change of chef or management as, quite frankly, the food we had today was of a completely inferior standard. Of the whole extensive range of food ordered, every single dish but one was awful, just awful. As for the one dish that was not awful, it was, at best, describable as passable. Please, look elsewhere and save yourself major disappointment. How bad was it really, well, we binned 80% of the food and we rarely let food go to waste.

Value for money and no compromise on taste

Ordered a kebab roll for lunch, freshly made good service, nice atmosphere with decent seating. Definitely a great spot for Sutton locals who want authentic Indian/Pakistani food without travelling out of town!

If I had an option to give no Star I would have given that. I ordered veg biryani, Paneer Tikka Karahi,Tarka Daal and naan I am vegetarian but the Paneer Tikka Karahi which was listed in the vegetarian section has pieces of meet. I would not eat, I was unwell 😔 and was hoping to change my taste buds. This was very poorly of Lahore spice to use same gravy for veg and non vegetarian food.

Food can be hit or a miss. If lucky, you get it fresh, if not, it is stale and not palatable.

Great place to go for a quick meal. VERY reasonably priced and is always welcoming and tasty. Love the food here. Always spot on. My favs Lamb curry, fish tikka, all starters and mains are good.

Worst experience I ordered kebab karahi and It was extremely salty when I complained to the restaurant to exchange or refund hey won't agree and misbehaved I won't never order food from them.

I ordered a takeaway after someone in the pub reminded me of Lahore Spices and it blew me away (in a good way). It was one of those curries that is so good you have to write a review on Tripadvisor. I would thoroughly recommend. The portions were really generous too!

I go and order from here quite regularly. It's my favourite Asian/Desi food place to eat. Location/shop itself could be slightly better but honestly, the food makes up for it and the staff/management generally tend to look after us, even if it's a home delivery. All the food is Halal here so no need to worry about that. I would definitely recommend the lamb chops, butter chicken and kheema karahi!

Ordered Chicken Tikka for takeaway and I’m not impressed with the dish at all. It’s so runny basically a pale pink tomato soup (no idea what they put in it to make this light colour) and no curry flavour at all. Chicken was dry and chewy. The only good thing was naan bread. Disappointed

This is a great spot for unfussy dining. It seems to be a combined restaurant and does a takeaway, with the kitchen (or at least the tandoor) in view. The food is good quality (certainly their distinctive onion bajhi starter is great) and has a wide choice of original dishes. I have been a numebr of times and found the vegetable dishes to be very good. I don't think they serve alcohol, which would be consistent with the name, but this didn't bother me. Just a nice place to go for a quick meal.

Tasty food and plentiful in portion. We were a group of 25, for social and the service , attention we received was excellent. Definitely would recommend and return.

Eat in or delivery, it's never been less than perfect. Love the bring your own drinks as well!

The worst takeaway I can honestly say I have ever had... Never had a Tikka Masalla so watery along with a Dansak. My sisters chicken Birrian tasted like it had been cooked in dettol disinfectant. ICurry is my favourite food. But will never order from here again . I understsnd saturday nights are busy but if you can't supply quality food don't take the order.

One that stands out for sure is their Naan, freshly made and you just can't stop eating 'em without any curry etc. Halwa Puri was really tasty and best part of it was that it wasn't oily at all, enjoyed a lot :-) Overall good place to eat out specially the weekend breakfast but make sure to be there as early as possible as it gets crowded.

Went here in the evening to grab some takeaway. Ordered shami kebab, karahi chicken and roti. The member of staff proceeded to take the food from a tub that was sitting in the fridge. He then asked me if I wanted it heated in the microwave. I asked if they could make me fresh food and he simply smirked and told me it was made earlier and was fresh. As some people have mentioned on other reviews, it seems they use the same old food over a few days. Horrendous service. Add to that the restaurant was dirty and had bugs walking around on the floor. I will not be eating here in the future. One to avoid.

Very very good Indian food at good prices. The owner and staff are all welcoming and friendly 😊

Took over 1hr 30 to deliver and then missing a main!!! Wouldn’t answer the phone so one of the family went without dinner! Never again!!!

We visit this joint quite often and the service and the taste of food is great as usual. The people are very nice and welcoming.

Great restaurant in Sutton. Take your own alcohol. Food was amazing. Only down side was service taking a while BUT that was simply due to how packed the restaurant was - and thats a great sign! 👍

Amazing restaurant with halal food

I stopped buying because of their rude staff, but food was good. Now everything else is down the toilet. Someone recently bought dinner from this place. It was plain and simple AWFUL! I think they have changed the chef as all items were too salty and too hot. Very imbalanced taste. Even a simple dish like the takda daal was lame.

My first and the last time experience for takeaway food was not very favorable. The wrong item was given to me when I opened my bag at home. The worst of all after eating some of the order, which did not look very appetizing, I became very sick and vomited and did not feel well at all. It seems that they use the same old food for days and keep on heating it up to serve. Not very hygienic. Be careful.

Excellent biryani in sutton Town.

The Nihari and Dahl are really good.

Really bad food. Not worth dining here. The waiters are also rude. Don't waste your money coming here.

Delivery was quick!! The food was absolutely disgusting! What a waste of £50! The whole lot was thrown away with one mouthful each! We all spat it straight out 3 different meals all rank would never eat here again. Even the smell in my house now makes me feel sick. Never seen a more runny curry ever. Cant even get a basic korma right. Don’t bother people PLEASEEEE

Nice food, good staff and you can bring your own booze. Perfection 👌🏽

Quick but not for quality and tastr

Amazing food and really friendly service. Very impressed with the quality of the food. Was very delicious especially the mixed grill and aloo gosht

Dont forget this place was previously closed down due to hygiene issues and it seems same thing again. - Rude Manager. When I went home I found an item missing. I called in and from the start he was rude. I told him I picked up and he asked me from where. We discovered that his staff forgot to include the item although I wasnt charged for it. However he had the cheek to tell me I can come and order it but will have to pay for it. - The Naan bread had a grainy element to it - The whole place looks shabby - The salad could have been cut by baby - Their card payment wasnt working properly

Good Good but Interior could be better

One of, if not the best Pakistani restaurants in south London. I have been many times and ordered across the menu without disappointment. The waiters are knowledgeable and friendly. The restaurant scores high, in quality of food and value for money. The food tends as standard to be on the spicy side. It is byob style which reduces costs. Finally, it does the best pistachio kulfi I've had.

Its still got some issues with hygiene, after receiving poor ratings but food is decent. Good points: - Halal food - Free parking in Sainsbury - Free Popadums, cutheny and salad -Live cricket -Meat biryani is decent -Lamb chops are nice -Lassi is great and fresh -Friendly staff Bad points: -Chicken tikka wasnt nice -Still needs to work on restaurant cleanliness

Sharply increases prices while also reducing portions by a good 20 percent. Used to order regularly but no more.

Seekh kebabs and meat biriyani were very nice. Staff were polite and friendly, prices very reasonable. Would definitely go here again and recommend to others to try.
