⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Fantastic! I had an amazing experience at Watan! The food was bursting with authentic Pakistani flavors — rich, perfectly spiced, and beautifully presented. Every dish tasted freshly made and full of depth, from the tender kebabs to the flavourful Chicken Karahi. The staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive, creating a cozy, family-friendly atmosphere. You can really tell they take pride in their cooking and hospitality. If you’re craving genuine Pakistani cuisine, Watan is an absolute must-visit. I can’t wait to go back!

A good restaurant but needs to work on it's hospitality, management and taste. Detailed information below. Taste : 2 / 5 Hospitality : 1 / 5 Ambience : 3.5 / 5 Area: congested tables Reviews on the food: - chicken wings and chips, wings were tasty but too small. Instead of promising 10 wings and serving mini wings. Rather give 6 or 8 wings that are big. - Chicken saag didn't have the taste. It was too bland. But considering the place I would say it's not bad to eat bland food. - Lamb chops. This was the WORST dish I ordered it felt like the chops were just overnight marinated with lemon, pepper and a lil ginger garlic paste and just tandoor roasted. I asked the waiter to talk to the chef and ask him to improve it mentioning a few spices and a method of roast. He went back and informed maybe his shift leader and I see them 3 look at my table and having a discussion but not working on what I said. The tables are very closely kept to one another, people passing by happen to stumble passing by. No space for waiters themselves to pass by.

We visited this restaurant on Tuesday night around 10:30 PM. The service was excellent, and the food was delicious. The seating area was very comfortable, and the staff treated us with great respect and hospitality. It was my first visit, it was little expensive 🤭 but I would highly recommend this place to everyone.🫰🤤

First visit. There was a queue to the door which usually means good food. We were told to sit on a table then waiters decided to move us to another table, Which we didn’t mind. Chapli kebab was the highest as it was perfectly cooked and with the sauces it was delicious. Charsi lamb was not up to the standard and not fully cooked. Drink looked good but tasted very average. Overall not a bad experience but I will not go again.
