I have eaten here a few times. If you are looking for a good Pakistani restaurant this is the place to try. They have excellent kabobs, their karahi's are excellent. They also have small but very tasteful Sunday brunch buffet. Their sweet lassi is the best in town. The husband and wife are nice people. Usually they come and visit you and ask how everything is. The ambiance is all right. I think the tables could be a little cleaner read more

I have never tried this place to eat but I drive by it several times a week. Right now it is 1:57 pm on a Wednesday and hours say open. Never see any cars. How can they stay in business at this location if there are never any cars? Not sure if business is permanently closed? read more

Very nice place for food, staff is very friendly and the owner is a GEM. We go for breakfast alot over the weekends.

I may be the only person that comes here for the fried chicken and fries but for good reason: the fried chicken is incredible. The seasoning they use is absolutely perfection. I usually ask for a side of the masala seasoning (what they use to season the fries) and sprinkle it on the fried chicken as well. The preparation of any order takes quite a bit of time to make (whatever you order comes out fresh and piping hot!). What I usually do is call ahead of time by 15 minutes and by the time I get there, the food is ready. Yes, Babe's fried chicken is awesome, slightly better than Hot N Crunchy's. But the problem with Babe's is you're coerced into ordering all the parts of the chicken. I'm a thigh man and drumstick man on occassion, so the breast and wing usually goes to waste if my wife isn't dining with me. A la cart fried chicken is the best way to go: some of us like the dark, some of us prefer the white. And get this: 3 pieces of fried chicken and a basket full of fries comes out to around $6.00. And I always take a bit of masala seasoning home with me. The seasoning by the way, is concocted by the owner Assef. I've used it as a rub for my rib eye and it was excellent. Throw a bit of unsalted butter in however you cook your steaks and you'll swear St. Peter let you through the pearly gates for your taste buds. read more

Delicious food and fair prices. What more could you ask for?? Signature Pakistani dishes done right. But they also have some nuggets and sandwiches to cater for kids who may not want to experience the spicy food yet. The staff and owners are extremely helpful if you don't know what to order. Convenient location with plenty of parking. A must try. Halwa Puri on weekends, a traditional breakfast meal, along with Beef Nihari, are absolutely delicious. read more

Went here for the first time as we heard their mutton karhai was super amazing! And we honestly loved it to every last bite! So flavorful, served hot with fresh hot naan! The chicken biryani was okayish.. The mango lassi was really good! The ambience needs improvement.. the next time, i might just get the mutton karhai to-go cause i really wasnt impressed with the interior.. also the tv was too loud and it was difficult to understand what my brother was saying... read more

Chicken Karahi was quite flavorful. Nan and rice is extra, but the value is still decent. The chicken itself felt a bit bland, it didn't feel like it was cooked in the sauce, which is a shame because the sauce is really good. If the chicken was pan cooked before being added it would be better. The restaurant itself was way too quiet tho. Music should be played, its very awkward. read more

Dallas Kabob House - Pakistani Near Me - Plano, Texas

As you can see from the 2 prior reviews, years apart in their own respect, I have been coming to this location for many years. Unfortunately, after an incident with the owner, I've ceased coming entirely. That incident in question revolves around their brunch buffet, which years ago was quite the attraction. After seeing they reopened a while back when COVID had quieted down quite a bit, we reserved a table after confirming many details about the spread, including the drinks, proteins and the key item, the price. After coming and enjoying a nearly empty restaurant for us to breathe easy in, we went to pay only for the price to ring up to about 40% more than expected. Confused, I brought it up with the owner, who I've spoken to many times and dealt with amicably, and expected a correction to be made so I could be on my way. Instead, I was immediately treated with a brash attitude, an early warning, after which he told me they had a service fee, in the form of an extra percentage per person, which brought the buffet price up significantly and caused the bill to go up even further as a result. I asked why he didn't advertise this and he said it's because "desis" don't want to pay the price he "deserves" for the spread and that it's how he keeps things running. I asked if at the very least the money went towards better wages and more staff, to which he replied, "No, why should it." My brother, sensing a righteous argument coming, dragged me out before I could have a word with him and the kind employees. That's the point when I said I couldn't support a business like this. I know people come here for the food, as do I, so the food quality went down from what it was in 2017-18 but it's still decent albeit overpriced. Their garlic sauce is still enviable though. Those are all my thoughts, long and arduous as they may be, and with that in mind I hope you understand why I cannot in any good conscience recommend this establishment. read more

I don't have much to say except the food is good, but the service is absolutely horrible. Service is slow, rude, and you get ignored a lot. While we were there another family got upset for their dish not having enough meat. The owner/chef came out and basically said that customers will never be happy no matter what you do. I'd do take out from there maybe, but definitely not eat in again. Did not have a good experience at all. I do recommend the boti kabab - very flavorful. read more

Dallas Kabob House - Shinwari Mutton Karahi - Pakistani Near Me - Plano, Texas

My friends and I meet quarterly for lunch and we wanted to try a Desi place none of us had been to. We made the right choice. The owners were the only staff in during the late afternoon and they could not have been more welcoming, pleasant and helpful. Each of us ordered something different and our varied p tastes were satisfied by every dish we ordered. My friends ordered the Beef Nihari which was fall off the bone and came with a generous helping of sauce. While sopping it up with naan is great, if they'd add rice to their side dishes that be ideal for finishing off the sauce. His wife isn't a fan of spicy food so her chicken biryani was perfect and enough for her to enjoy two meals. My Shinwari chicken karahi was excellent. Fall off the bone and 3 out of 5 on the spice. Exactly what I wanted. I also ordered some ala carte beef seekh kabobs that we all agreed were delicious. A round of chai was enjoyed by all. Hope to go back soon. read more

Their lunch buffet is 12-3 on Sundays. The owner was very friendly and helpful. Since it was towards the end of the lunch buffet time he let us take as much as we wanted to go for the price of 1 plate. The food was really good and very flavorful. Authentic Pakistani flavors and not too spicy. We will definitely be back! read more

Karahi Gosht with Afghani naan- don't even think of going elsewhere for this combo. And when you are at this restaurant, you would be CRAZY not to order it. The people here are friendly, and very accommodating. Upon arrival we received our menus. The item that popped out the most was the karahi gosht. We saw a video of it on their digital menu as well, and it looked very good. Along with this, we ordered chapli kabab as well. Everything was awesome. We ate our karahi gosht straight out of the pot (yes, it is served in the actual karahi!) and were licking our fingers. My wife and I typically don't eat a crazy amount, but this dish was a, "one more bite for taste" type of item. I hope these guys continue to keep up their quality. We genuinely enjoyed ourselves here, and cannot wait to be back! read more

It's a newly opened joint( I believe) . I live in Irving so spent over 40 minutes to visit this place this pass weekend just to check it out. The place was not that crowded but the guy at the front counter seemed extremely busy. The takeaway food order took over 25 minutes . The food was not that great except nan. The kabob were burned out with no taste and were tough to swallow . The food quality was not up to the standard and will not repeat . read more

The food is so meh but the service was good. Not worth the price. We had the iftaar and usually don't eat out. Would not recommend.

I am disappointed to see so many negative reviews for this restaurant. This place has amazing food. The nihari was excellent. The chicken karahi is awesome. The behari was delish. The management is extremely friendly. What more do you need? Don't trust the negative reviews - this place is worth the drive (35 min for me). read more

Phoned in my order and was told it would be ready in 30 min. Took close to 1hr and 20min. Prices didn't match what was on their website, and the no longer include sauce or naan bread in the family feast. Quality and service have gone down. read more

Dallas Kabob House Mother's Day ... We decided to go for first time since the change or ownership and I guess will have to wait for my fourth trip with new ownership... Food: 1/5 Chicken and beef seekh Kabob - packed half Bihari Kabob - returned as never saw rare Bihari Kabob and I've had quite a few Fries - Best item of the evening Service: 1/5 (because Amir took his time with customers) - chicken breast not available - breast pieces for chicken boti not available - ketchup not available - Bihari Kabob in Amir's word "theek nahin hai aur agar mein order leta tau bihari ka order na leta" - fries brought with seasoning (asked without seasoning for kids) Facilities: 4/5 Place looks a lot better and well lit up with a lot cleaner bathrooms Overall: Simple average gives this visit 0.4/5 Amir's customer service skills was the only saving grace in this otherwise lackluster Mother's Day dinner.

Clean, Excellent service, authentic Pakistani Taste. We went for Buffet on Saturday ($13.99) They had traditional Halwa puri breakfast which was great. Puri brought to the table fresh along with naan which is how it should be. The manager/owner super polite and check on us several times. The Good: Halwa Puri Cholay Seekh kabab Broast!!! Mint lemonade Salad Multiple dessert options Improvement opportunities: Bihari kebab had too much salt Biryani rice was not soft Nihari wasnt warm enough read more

This is a great spot for yummy Pakistani/Indian food. Their Shinwari Karai is absolutely amazing and dont forget to order the Afghani Naan. So yumm!! Halwa puri was yummy too. The owners and servers are very nice and service was fantastic. Definitely will go back again and support local businesses. read more

The two stars is for the friendly service. The food however was horrible. Got the "family feast" and chose the kafta type beef kabob and another "tender" grilled meat the waitress recommended. The kabobs were very salty and dry. The other meat was oddly mushy. It was not "tender" as described. Instead, the texture was like mushy mashed potatoes. So strange. read more

Don't miss this diamond in the rough. This place is unassuming inside and out, but MAN the food is amazing. I'll start with some facts out very helpful and sweet waitress (and I'm guessing owner) dropped for us: they make their yogurt dips and drinks in house, as well as the bread. She talked with us about the menu and made very helpful suggestions. We ended up getting two family feasts with chicken boti, chicken kebab, beef seekh kebab, beef bihari boti... and something else, each plate came with two gigantic very soft-yet-crispy-on-the-bottom pieces of fresh naan. The chicken seekh wrap wash nice and fresh, a chicken kebab wrapped in fresh naan with chopped vegetables. But the winner according to everyone at the table was the butter chicken. The mango lassi was an excellent cool and refreshing yogurt drink (made in house) to cool down some of the spicier dishes. All of the food was really good, customer service was excellent. We will be back for their Ramadan buffet. (As usual, didn't take pictures before we dug in.) read more

I went to Dallas Kabob House (DKH) with my family on a Sunday afternoon. We were visiting Dallas from Houston area. Someone had recommended DKH to us especially their Shinwari Karahi and Chapli Kabob. Here is what happened in each one of the department of running a successful restaurant: Greet: There was no one until we walked past half of the restaurant. A guy came and greeted us asking us how many of us were going to dine in. The restaurant was empty except for one table. Up on telling him that we are party of 5; he said the whole restaurant is empty so pick anyplace to sit down. Well, why do even ask when we can clearly see the whole place was empty. Service: He brought the menu and took our drinks order. While looking at the menu, we knew what to order as recommended earlier; he stood for about 30 seconds and suddenly said to me to come to the counter to place the order. Well, why did you ask for to order while sitting when we had to order at the counter anyway? Cleanliness: This is the most dirty restaurant I have ever been into; the windows are dirty; the door knobs are dirty and the flooring sticky. But that just a start, we saw multiple flies in the restaurant so many that it started to bother my kids to a freakish level. Food: Third class - is all comes to mind. The Chicken Karahi was made as if the oil was put later on and you could taste the uncooked oil in your mouth. The spices - mediocre and with no taste. The kebab, dry and taste less. The nihari, looked like been sitting in for days before it was served to us. The greeter and owner came to apologize to us about the cleanliness and asked about the food quality. Up on providing feedback, they didn't know how to correct the situation. They couldn't offer turning on a fan or something to clean up. Post Lunch: As expected, we started to have cramps and felt oil based reflexes in our mouth due to uncooked oil. We left Dallas towards Houston praying that we wouldn't get sick but prayers didn't work much; we felt terrible all the way to home due to the food we ate at Dallas Kabob House. My recommendation - don't eat there or you will get sick! By the way, we have a new favorite where we ate brunch a day earlier; see my other review about Gulabo's! Ciao Dallas. read more

First time eating Pakistani food and we were seriously impressed! The owner and his staff were so welcoming as well. Very traditional, homemade and delicious food!

We will absolutely be back! read more

We went for the brunch on the weekend. Wait staff can not speak a single word of English so good luck with asking them for anything and expecting it to be brought to you which essentially makes the wait staff useless except picking up dirty plates. The owner is sneaky and not upfront about the charges. When you ask about the bill he would simply say, "oh it will be texted to you". when you finally see the bill after an hour of lag time, you have been charged close to 20% gratuity on top of the price for your buffet for a party of just two. Understandable if there is a big crowd and the meals are brought by the staff at the table and where the wait staff really work their rear off. But c'mon, this is a buffet where we have to serve ourselves. Food is on the pricey side while there was nothing special on the buffet menu. Same old minimum routine items. There are many many other desi places to choose from in the nearby vicinity where one will get a lot more value for the same amount of money spent. read more
