Lahori Darbar in Redbridge

Zero food- waste of money Food is tasteless Rude staff

went to shop just to buy 2 naan one guy charged me before my order was ready £1.60. then i asked just for the green sauce dip and guy came from kitchen came out and said charge him £2.50. lunn di dukaan chalani ena ne jadd price hi ni pata and asking 50p for that watery sauce.

We ordered biryani and Lamb Karrhai. The food seemed leftover especially lamb and all thee of us got food poisoning.

I’ve been visiting Lahori Darbar in Ilford for lunch the past two days, and it’s quickly become my go-to spot! The food is delicious. and the variety on the menu is quite impressive. The service is friendly and efficient, It’s the perfect place for a quick yet satisfying meal during a busy workday.

All over restaurants is Amazing fabulous Food so amazing undisputed Service 10/10 specifically NAdi she is a amazing waitress 👍 Environment is amazing We really enjoyed

The whole grilled chicken had good seasoning but was a little dry. The lamb kebab packed a flavorful punch with its zesty spices, though it might be a bit too strong for some. The plain naan was slightly dry but still paired well with the dishes. A decent meal overall.

This is first time ever I have given review, Me and my friend went to this restaurant. This is my worst experience in this lahore restaurant, food was ok ok but the staff has very bad customer service and they don’t even know how to handle the customer. Actually that was our mistake to go to this Lahore restaurant without knowing and go through the google reviews. Very bad experience.

Nidhi best customer service, paya is too good.

We order lamb karahi it's very hard and very smell on it. Staff don't know how to deal with constmer. Never recommended

Sindhi Biryani - No Bakwas (BS) Biryani - YES I specifically searched for Sindhi Biryani on the JustEat app, and this was the only place that served this particular dish. Expecting beautifully flavoured tender spicy chicken meat, potatoes, and fragrant rice, all garnished with fried onions, I was completely let down. Instead, I opened my order and was presented with boiled rice with some food colour. The single piece of chicken thigh in the entire dish was cut in half! Because of this, every few mouthfuls of rice contained bone fragments, ruining the dish. To add insult to injury, the dish did not contain any potatoes or garnish. Additionally, I ordered a few extra items to my order. The naan was a lot smaller compared to other desi restaurants, and the kebab was stick thin and small. The yoghurt and mint chutney was watery like it had been watered down and lacked any flavour. The food also took over an hour to deliver and was cold on arrival. Disappointing!

All of the food ordered arrived cold. The Biryani (rice dish) had small pieces of bone fragment which ruined the dishes. The dish also contained two small pieces of broken chicken.

A lot of variety, great customer service and proper Lahori food! Feels like you're eating at home. Tasty Lahori food ♥️

Nice food fast service. Express naan service had me in tears. Asked for another naan didn't even take 5 seconds and guys shouting express naan and its brough to pur table in 10 seconds flat.

Highly recommended place. High in taste cheap in price. Very reasonable price for delicious🤤🤤 food at ilford lane.

I recently had the pleasure of trying Palak Gosht from Lahori Darbar and it was a truly delightful experience. The service was equally impressive. The staff was attentive, The lamb was juicy and succulent, while the spinach had a vibrant color and rich texture.. Palak Gosht was a perfect combination of taste, service, and quality. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a comforting and satisfying meal!

Went there first time to try it out in a view to take my family in future but experience was not good. I got some chicken kebab and Chanay. Despite my request to make me fresh kebabs, they were not fresh. Kitchen didn't look clean and food taste was just ok.

I’m going to decrease my rating to 3 as they’re very careless regarding hygiene. I found there spoons are dirty and informed them but instead of washing or replacing them they provide another bunch of spoons 🥄 but those were the same with stinky stuffs. After my denial staff provided me two spoons but still I had to wipe it by tissue!! Recently they’ve renovated their shop but forgot to renovate their mindset regarding hygiene and cleanliness. I hope they will look into this matter. Their food was very tasty but they’re too oily food so I would request them to reduce some oil! Lamb biriyani was perfect 👍

Amazing experience, will Insha Allah visit again

Food no taste at all looks bland feal empty space heat cold cold place

Very delicious food in this restaurant

I went there on Sunday and ordered lamb Nihari. I was shocked to see there was no meat in it. I requested the staff to take that back and bring the fresh one with meat in it. And the staff was soo rude and they just said … this is what we do if you wanna eat just eat as it is or leave. This is how they treat their customers. Never gonna visit this restaurant again.

One of the best restaurant in London. Authentic Lahori Food!! ❤️ Great staff and great taste!! ❤️ Achari Karahi is favourite! 🤩

I recently visited on Lahori Dhaba I ordered nihari, plater and malsa fish. Nihari was best. Plater was in good size and delicious but the fish was a bit dry.

exceptional butter Naans! tastes even better with butter 👌

Amazing food very clean, would be much better if staff starts wearing uniform and not their dirty jogging bottoms

I completely loveeeee their food. Nihari and Haleem are so on point, just like in Pakistan. The service is great by Nithi. She is very nice, friendly, and takes care of the cleanliness and everything.

Totally rabish customer service i Oder just 3 naan 🫓 and thy took 15 minutes

Satisfactory..cheap and tacky..what u expect in a place like this

specially the staff was nice thanks to hina

The food quality is really nice fresh and tasty always ... and the staff is very kind and the owner is good person.

*5/5 Stars* "I recently dined at Lahori Darbar and had an exceptional experience! The service was top-notch, and the food was absolutely divine. I ordered the Nihari and Saag Gosht, both of which were authentic Pakistani dishes done to perfection. The Nihari was tender, flavorful, and fell-off-the-bone delicious, with a rich, slow-cooked broth that was heavenly. The Saag Gosht was equally impressive, with tender lamb cooked in a rich spinach curry that was both spicy and savory. The portion sizes were generous, and the prices were very reasonable. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, making it a great spot for a night out with family or friends. Highly recommend Lahori Darbar for anyone craving authentic Pakistani cuisine. The Nihari and Saag Gosht are must-try dishes! *Rating Breakdown:* - Food Quality: 5/5 - Service: 5/5 - Ambiance: 4.5/5 - Value: 5/5 *Will I return?* Absolutely!"

Best asian restaurant in ilford.Desi Murgh on weekends is never to be missed.Authentic Lahori Taste

The place was horrible, dirty plates, dirty glasses. Now tell me, who even grabs the glasses from where people drink them and gives them to customers? It was dirty and by grabbing those glasses with dirty hands she only made it worse. The lady was rude and kept looking at us in a way that was telling us that she didn't want to serve us or be there anyway. The food was okay, not the best. The naan were basically bricks, they were hard and did not feel like naan. The mango lassi felt okay but was not the best for that price. The food took AGES to be made, it wasn't even much, just a small grill and 3 grills, my grandma is faster at cooking that. At the end when there was the moment to pay. They charged me for other table items and then started complaining with each other and did not even say sorry and just gave the money back. They definitely tried to charge me more without getting caught but I saw it fortunately. Also they kept telling us to keep the door shut when it didn't even shut properly DON'T GO THERE UNLESS YOU WANT TO GRT SCAMMED.

naan was rock hard!!! we ordered butter naan! there was NO BUTTER on the naan

food was delicious..but best was delivery driver who followed instructions in notes. thanks very much.

The food was amazing, I ordered Daal Ghosht, the taste and smell was simply too good. Proper Lahori food.

Quality and price is best all over ilford lane. Staff is humble and very friendly.

excellent service with excellent taste I would highly highly recommended

This place is amazing the food is so delicious and the staff are very friendly and polite I recommend everyone to come and visit the lovely food one’s you eat here you will definitely eat here again I give the place 10 out of 10 for they food and services *****

Loved the food here, especially the Halim with Tandoori roti is an awesome combo and a must try. Will recommend for sure.

Great food, nice service. Haleem is recommended

The food was really good. Chicken curry is a must try ❤️

This halim is hands down one of the best I've ever had! The food was fantastic and the service was top-notch. Highly recommend it!

Never again! Placed order which then got wrong and were reluctant to change it, waitress was rude! Food not good as whole family had diahorrea afterwards…..

Great food we came for breakfast first time at Lahorei darbar.

Just returned this evening from having a meal. The waitress was poor. She got our order wrong! We ordered boneless chicken and meat curry. What we got was meat on the bone. When this was pointed out she rudely said this is what you ordered!!! Eventually she agreed to change it for the right dish. Also ordered whole tandoori chicken which was awful. The currys were not much better. We have all returned home and have stomach pains, my daughters feel sick!!! Never ever again!!! May have food poisoning!!!

The butter chicken was very good.Reccomended to all.

Very bad experience , very bad service .. very less quality

The worst food ever. We had lamb karahi and biryani and both stinks. Horrible smell like rotten meat. Do not recommend at all

The food was great, especially the tender lamb—it was delicious! However, the atmosphere was just okay. It was quite humid inside with no air conditioning or proper ventilation, making it uncomfortable. The service was also just alright, nothing particularly noteworthy. They really need to invest in air conditioning because there was no air flow throughout the place.

Friendly service coupled with authentic Lahori food. You must try their Lahori chana, with fluffy naan - all freshly prepared. The channa tasted like you are eating them in Pakistan. Spiced perfectly the Lahori way!! Clean place to eat while you’re visiting Ilford Lane

I had an amazing breakfast experience at Lahore Darbar restaurant on Ilford Lane, thanks to the exceptional service provided by Shabaz. He was incredibly respectful and attentive, making the meal even more enjoyable. The food was delicious, and the atmosphere was welcoming. Shabaz truly went above and beyond to ensure we had a great time. God bless you, my man! Highly recommend this place for a delightful breakfast.

Not feel like restaurant.no fan in restaurant.no cleaning. Zero service. Hot like oven.Nihari is not good

A best place to dine in for Pakistani cuisine, I really enjoyed the food when they cook fresh and severe you directly. Please allow plenty of time if you want to enjoy your food 😊.

Really worth trying, they've got a tasty butter chicken, Daal gosht and Karahi Gosht with amazing Butter Naan

Oh what an experience.. Never again.. Horrible food.. Horrible service.. Average atmosphere.. Simply avoid this restaurant.. Many good ones around 😩

Their food was absolutely disgusting! The chicken biryani was horrible

Tandoori roti is excellent, and rest of the food reasonably priced.

Wanted to have a solid brunch. What better place than to try a Lahori Cuisine. Centrally located. We ordered Tandoori Roti, Butter Nan, Lamb Kebab and Haleem. All were at par. Little bit oily, can reduce it. Taste was nice, service was quick and the personnel polite and humble. Place could definitely be more cleaner. Presentation could be enhanced a lot. Price is very optimum. If these things are taken care, it's sure to be 5* eatery. All the best for the team to reach it.

Great services, they serve tasty as well as hot food which is rare to have. Missed Lahore after eating here.

Food is fantastic wanna visit again

Very nice and tasty food. And very friendly staff.please must visit this place with your family and friends .

Great restaurant in Ilford Lane if you’re looking to eat some traditional Pakistani food. Would recommend getting the Nihari and Haleem especially!

I love the food they serve. I always recommend Lahori Darbar .

Excellent pakistani food . Nihari is very tasty with khulcha.highly recommended . Must visit this place lahore Darbar ilford lane ig1 2jz

Friendly staff, really nice Lahori tradition food, recommend to everyone pls visit Lahori Darbar. I would love to go there again.

Taste is awesome.. Love the food pure lahori taste.. strong recommend to visit for quality food and people are real love ❤️

Best food must try and good service

best desi food on ilford lane,Original Lahori Taste highly recommened

The Food is too delicious and fresh.

Had the Lahori Channa with Butter Naan. Super delicious, reminded of the chikkar chollay. Highly recommended

Much needed to improve services and food quality

Pathetic burned food. Do not bother to replace.. Bad service with tasteless food

Really good food, one of the best mixed grills I've had anywhere.

This is the place to have a curry @ilfordlane #Ilfordlane

So we had a nice experience, but the absolute best was definitely the NAAN bread, it was completely amazing, the haleem was good and also the maghz nihaari, could’ve been a bit more salty, but that was not an issue to solve. I would definitely have given a five star rating, but due to the past reviewer who had a bad experience with someone being rude that I see as something that everybody needs to improve even though I did not have this experience myself.

Absolutely shambolic, hygiene level minus 100 - fully saw a RAT drop from the ceiling. Disgusting

Their Brain Nihari is too good, its high quality too but the only issue is that the quantity of the brain meat is very little but overall they are too good, its a 5 star

We Pakistanis are not 'Badnam' without any reason. There are many reasons, but one of them is that we do not respect each other. It seems that when we have more money, we start disrespecting others and fail to value them. This was my experience last night when I decided to dine at a restaurant. The person highlighted in the picture was very rude to me right after I entered the restaurant, signaling aggressively that there was no space available, even though I saw a table becoming free. Another staff member from the restaurant then approached me and asked me to wait as a table was becoming available. I waited outside until the table was free, then entered and again the same person rudely told me to leave as there was no space, despite the table being empty. This is not the right way to treat customers. You guys should learn customer service first. How can one person from the restaurant ask me to wait while another rudely gestures to leave? In the end, what impression will we leave? These are our fellow Pakistanis.

Ask for lamb biryani was fully sticky and bad smell was coming.

The guy with the mustache and beard he’s bit healthy, needs to know how to talk to the customer. First I call the restaurant I ordered him Naan he declined the order. Then I came to the store told him I need this naan’s. Straight away in very rude way he said to me 20 mins. Nothing hi hello or sorry we gonna take this much time . Pls pls tell him to talk to the customer nicely. But the food is literally banging🔥

Rubbery food, smelly meat, zero flavour

Food was so delicious and Pricing was affordable.

So oily and the meet was hard even I can one bit of them waste of money and food my first and last order from this place

Customer service is very good and the food is very delicious

Worst service and taste of food, shazen restaurant is way much better then this

Love this place my place ti go for kebab rolls when I am in Ilford. Service is very good will not be disappointed.

Proper Lahori breakfast on Sunday morning. Paya was my favourite. Nehari is also delicious. I would recommend this place for desi breakfast

The worst Haleem I ever tasted for £9. Not recommending anyone.

Food is good to have (diner-in or take-out), but their customer services & table service is by far the "Lowest" in the whole of the UK 🇬🇧. They need to focus on food quality, environment & and especially "customer service"

Best Asian Pakistani food in London

Jasprit kaur, Manisha and Rohit were absolutely amazing in hospitality. Very friendly and astonishing peoples. Their service is 10/10 as well as the food service.

Quite disappointed, the chicken karahi wasn't fresh and the taste wasn't very nice. One plate of biryani for £6-7 and wasn't worth it 😕 the toilets were not working and the staff wasn't polite.

I like the food is like homemade from back home thanks for main chef who’s made our food

They need to be appropriate in pricing.

Taste is good without a doubt. The only downside is seating and serving. Doesn't give you a feeling of eating in a restaurant for sure.

Had the biryani from here before and it is usually very nice, I don't order from anywhere else. Bought lamb biryani from here today Warmed and eaten as soon as I got home Smells awful/gone-off and has very sticky/slimy texture - was gone off. Very Disappointed.

Poor customer service with arogent person on front desk with burnt roti and Chana's are tasteless. Not a happy customer

Food & service were awesome...highly recommended
