I would not recommend this restaurant due to the high prices, mediocre flavors, and excessive use of salt. One visit is sufficient. read more I would not recommend this restaurant due to the high prices, mediocre flavors, and excessive use of salt. One visit is sufficient.

And the lack of name recognition as opposed to other Pakistani restaurant on enmore road which are well known. The fish tikka was too salty and other dishes weren't value for money either. I would suggest trying other restaurants at enmore road.And when the same profile picture under different names has to write two reviews to bump up the ratings it shows how good a place it. @ owners writing their own review lol

Despite ordering it spicy, the heat levels were just right and did not overshadow the flavor. We will definitely be coming back here. A major plus was the lack of background music, allowing us to have a conversation, and the well-lit dining area made it easy to see our food. On the downside, the portion sizes were a bit small and it took an hour for our food to be served. The take-away orders were being picked up and delivered during that time. The small balti pans were also a bit on the small side.

Naan bread was cold and curry was bland!!

Till I found this place in Newtown.. OMG By far this has to be the BEST curries I have ever eaten, WOW. Highly recommend.
