Lahori Butt Karahi

A straightforward, no-frills Pakistani restaurant spread over two floors - nothing fancy, just great food that clearly draws in the crowds. It’s always busy and understandably popular within the south asian (particularly Pakistani) community. The 1kg boneless lamb karahi was truly outstanding - the flavours were bold, perfectly balanced, and authentic. The portion was generous, and every bite tasted freshly prepared and full of depth. Arguably the best curry I’ve had this year, and without question the place I’ll return to whenever I’m craving a proper karahi. The meat seek kebab starter were good (I've had better) whilst the lahori chana was okay but not great. I probably wouldn't get that side dish next time. The naans were large and fluffy, complementing the karahi perfectly, and the prices are excellent for the quality and quantity served. Rice options are limited, but that’s a minor detail when the main dish delivers this well. Service was fast, card payments are accepted, and overall, it was just what the doctor ordered. Would I return? Yes - in a heartbeat!

The famous Butt Karahi is taste of Lahore. We had one Deer karahi, one chicken Karahi and one Malai booti. Taste is amazing. Food was well cooked and taste real Lahore. I had Deer Karahi after a long time and it tasted delicious. This branch is very busy and the staff is very friendly. Definitely recommend If you want to enjoy real Pakistani food (not Indian taste in the name of Pakistani taste)

The food was very tasty and good quality. The service provided could do with improving. We were served with a glass which was dirty. The napkin served with the cutlery wrapped around it has curry stains on it. The Food Hygiene rating sticker (rating of 3 as of April 2025) should be clearly showing to customers to give added confidence.
