TLDR version: horrible dining experience, decent tasting food…read more Let me start by saying that the quality of the food here was great, and very tasty. Unfortunately though, there's more to a dining experience than just the taste of the food and that's where this restaurant falls absolutely flat on their face. Horrible dining experience. First off, the waitresses were completely lifeless, mumbled everything, didn't even have the care to look in your direction while speaking, let alone look at you. Asking things like "what's popular here" didn't really yield any response from them either. In addition to that, the wait time of the food was a bit too much. We were one of only two small tables in the restaurant at the time and had to wait 40 minutes for food that usually wouldn't take anywhere near that long. The quantity itself was a bit on the low side as well. And finally to wrap it up, on a hot summer night, it was boiling inside due to their AC not working. So we had to eat our food literally dripping in sweat.

Went to Chai Paratha a little while ago. There was a HUGE line and was extremely busy. We were…read morelucky that we only wanted a table for two and so we got seated right away. We ordered the Chana / keema / paratha plate as can be seen in the pictures. It came with one chai, halwa and some achaar. This has got to be one of the best Pakistani breakfasts I've had here in Mississauga. The service was also quick and efficient. We got our meal only after a small wait. Interior was nice with plenty of seating but again, was very busy and loud. Giving it a 4 stars only because the interior seemed a bit tight of space due to the amount of people.

Employees could at least have a welcoming nature. Ordered food which was a bit to blunt without basic garnishes like ginger or chillies. When asked for it, staff handed over raw stuff.

No staff around, no one checking in..nothing.And customers are entitled to get a receipt and copy of it is not for throwing away. When we asked for it attitude again.

Located in a small plaza right next to Szechuan Noodle Bowl…read more Loved the interior as it looked newly renovated, clean lines, with some ethnic touches! The ceramic tiled table tops had an Islamic geometric pattern on them and chairs had a tribal weave. What needed work was the following: - Menu is really simple, with NO PRICES were posted. Really? Do customers hafta ask how much each item costs? - Although festive in design, paper plates and sauces presented in takeout containers were used for dine-in - Some dishes needed improvement: 1 kebob was overcooked to the point of tasting bitter, both goat/fish dish were oily Keema naan was good. Fried fish was flavourful and moist, but needy to be drained of oil before being served. Although I do appreciate a succinct menu, it was perhaps a bit too simple. There was no rice and maybe 1 veg dish which I found weird. No Kashmiri Chai available, although it appears on the menu. Again, I don't like that there aren't any prices posted. Service was ok, but it was a younger guy doing everything from taking orders to serving. Luckily, it wasn't very busy when I ordered. Food is ok, I wouldn't be opposed to going back, there is potential, but some things need improvement.

Before I talk about their delicious food, I want to stress that we were given styrofoam cups to…read moredrink water out of, and that was not okay. It's terrible for the environment, and it made the drinking water taste bad. I also saw hot tea being served in disposable paper cups. Please, please, please, get proper, re-useable cups to serve your guests with. We had proper plates and cutlery, I don't understand why they gave us styrofoam cups. This was a dark smear on an otherwise great dining experience. Now, on to the food portion of the review. So. Delicious. I am, by no means, an expert on Pakistani food, but I found the flavours of the goat and chicken karahi amazing! We ordered a pound of each, and they came out sizzling in iron skillets. The medium was spicy, so if you're not a spicy person, get it mild. My only gripes were that the goat had quite a bit of bone in it (maybe we got a bad cut), and the chicken was a tad bit dry, but everything was still so very tasty. We got the sesame butter naan to go with our karahi and it was quite possibly some of the best naan I've ever had. Warm and chewy on the inside, a little bit crisp on the outside, and great flavour from the toasted sesame. Mopped up the sauce from the karahi with the naan... I'm still dreaming about it. The interior of the restaurant is quite small, maybe 5-6 tables that sit 2-4. But it's brightly lit, clean, cozy, and has great Pakistani decor. The lady serving us was very sweet and helpful in helping us decide what to eat.

A solid 3.5-4. So we went here on a weekday at around six-ish in the evening the place was empty…read moreand they were just a few pick up orders. I ordered the beef tawa qeema, papri chaat, rumali roti and a kulcha. The tawa qeema was delicious and perfectly cooked but it was loaded with green chilies which made the dish so so spicy that really put me off. I love spicy food but this was a bit too much. The papri chaat was so close to ones you get in Pakistan I really enjoyed it. Roomali roti which is paper thin roti was such a treat I probably ate it after a decade not many places make it here. Definitely full points. But the kulcha was dry and got hard very quick I wish they made it more soft with a touch of butter. Overall the flavors are good minus the spicy level on the qeema. I do want to try their fish, bunkabab and breakfast halwa puri. The service was really good. The girl behind the counter was super friendly and courteous. The place was neat and clean. And the desi songs playing were just epic. Great selection staff. Price point isn't bad at all. All this was $35 including a pop. They have a separate section with paper plates, cutlery, boxes and bags which I really liked as you don't have to stand in a line begging for them after you get your order.

Surrounded by Pakistani decor that almost transported us to the streets of Lahore, this place is definitely a go to for a quick bite or more! I really wanted to try their kachori but they had sold out, so the server told us the other popular dishes are the round kebabs and keema curry. It was really well spiced and had tons of flavour, and definitely filled me up! Also went for a mango lasso to wash everything down which was the perfect accompaniment to a super spiced meal! Will definitely be back here for that kachori!

We were seated in the back part of the restaurant... where the booths were which in my opinion ruined my experience at the restaurant. There was a large group that was seated in the front area where the chairs and tables were which was the better area while the booths seemed to be the older setup and had us all squished. This ruined our experience as we were fighting for space on the table. The servers were good overall but not sure if I will return to this location. Having been to the Ajax location that one hits it out of the park with ambiance, service and food! Hope the missisauga location can also kick it up a notch a day would be glad to return.

Sure enough, dinner rolled around and we couldn't find something else we wanted, so we swung back here. We were surprised when we walked in. There's not much of a storefront, just a counter to order. They clearly don't much want dine in-traffic, they're just aiming to get you to order something and take it to go. There's very simple decor, with a TV behind the counter displaying the menu. Despite the fact that this place was still going to be open for an hour, their menu was... unavailable. We ordered a couple of kabob rolls, but they were out of roti, so we had to swap out plan. We tried ordering sides, but there were out of... all of them. Absolutely baffling. The girl at the check out was clearly disinterested. We were disappointed, but not about to go somewhere else, so we settled for getting what they were able to provide. We made a point of going somewhere else to pick up drinks, and then went back to our hotel to eat the food. Food was good, but based on the disinterested service we probably would never come back if we were in town.
