Delicious and flavour food, the biryani was hot and amazing! The vege sambosa needs improvement, and the mango juice was salty so we returned it. Loved the refreshing cardamom ice cream! Staff were super helpful, but the restaurant was extremely hot inside. With hot dishes being served, the high temperature made it uncomfortable to enjoy the meal. A cooler environment would make the experience much better.

Very tasty food. Highly recommended. Chapal kebab are the best. A must try.

Hammad Syed

Excellent food, generous portion sizes, we couldn’t finish it all… Economical compare to many restaurants we tried in many European countries as a tourist from North America. Only issue is most people don’t speak English so it’s a bit hard to communicate if you don’t speak German.

Chappli Kebabs were just awesome, super. Rest I liked quantity and quality. Kitchen and sitting is clean. Meat was good and tender. But they need to up the game in making rice. Peshawari qawa is also available.
