I haven't done many reviews for a few years prior Pandemic…read more Today I felt the temptation for spicy Pakistani food. So I dropped in at Lahore's Premium Kabob House and ordered Lamb Biryani. As usual I was warmly greeted by the owner, a respectable gentleman, (as is his custom whenever he is available, he greets the patrons of his restaurant). I am somewhat compelled to write these few narrative in praise of this fine gentleman's restaurant, the delicious food and fine service rendered, to let others know that there's a restaurant that caters to the guests with proper treatment and with a hospitable and friendly disposition with awesome food as a bonus. Unlike most restaurants, after many years the quality and taste of the food from Lahore's Premium Kabob remains unchanged. If you haven't yet been lucky enough to sample the offerings from Lahore's Premium Kabob restaurant, I can without reservation say..you are missing out.

Wow what a disappointment. Honestly feel robbed after having a dinner here…read more I ordered a bunch of items to try with the family and boy was it underwhelming. The biryani's and chicken tikka were the saviours here but to be served the rest of the items has to be a joke. The small quantity of meat and curry from the dishes was ridiculous. Each dish ranged from $15-20 and paying $20 for a singular piece of meat with no flavour is a complete robbery. Each dish was pretty much finished after we had a small sample of it. Being known as a kebab house you'd think the grilled meats would be flavourful and juicy but the kebabs were dry and lacked in seasoning. The Karahi gosht was a single piece of meat with a thick layer of oil resting on top. The curry itself lacked in flavour and we almost vomitted when trying it. I love trying new restaurants with the family and supporting local businesses but you need to avoid this place at all costs. 1/5

I have went again and their food is still as good, with portions just as big. My small gripe about…read morethe biryani being excessively spicy was fixed, as its still spicy, but not so much that you can't keep eating. One thing to be aware of is that online ordering for pickup via their website is no longer accepted. They have yet to remove the ordering integration or stopped allowing orders to be processed. I highly suggest just calling them to order instead.

What a discovery! Honestly my new go-to place for authentic Hyderabadi food. Craving haleem,…read morebiryani or irani chai? You can tell the food is made with love. Everything we ordered was drool-worthy: Lagan ka gosht - mutton curry, delicious gravy that went perfectly with fresh garlic naan Haleem - a lentil and meat stew with caramelized onions and cashews. You like that stringy texture? This place does it and does it extremely well. My haleem connoisseurs....You know what I'm talking about!! Chicken Biryani - delicious! So many layers and flavours that merge into a scrumptious dish. Comes with a leg and a thigh piece and a mountain of fragrant rice. Irani Chai - frothy and hot. Exactly how you get it in Hyderabad, India. The owner who cashed us out is super friendly and professional. Their Customer service is great - I find south asian restaurants are severely lacking in how to converse with customers but not here! He actually had a full conversation with me (with masks on, ofc). I've added this to my regular rotation of restaurant to order from. Price point is perfect! $6.99 biryani is so pocket friendly. Can't wait to try the whole menu!! I also can't wait for when we can have people over because I'm 1000% going to get catering from here. COVID: when we entered, staff already had a mask on which was extremely satisfying.

Typically I use yelp reviews to help me decide where to eat but this place is a rare exemption,…read moredisregard the low average rating. Lahore tikka house is Incredible, my family has gone here for years and of course through multiple owners, ever since the son took over it's been better than ever. It's places like this which make me wish yelp didn't factor old reviews. After the death of the original owner, I believe his wife took over the food began to go downhill in both taste and quality, though I can't blame her as it must've been quite rough to handle. I believe it was when the building burned down when the current owner began to run things. The new building is in my opinion better than the previous, great exterior and the interior is well designed while keeping the general vibe of the restaurant. The food is incredible, large servings for a good price and even if you don't like lamb I'd encourage you to get the lamb chops, lamb biryani, and lamb Karahi anyway. Of course, I love all their curries, their lamb is just incredible.

A truly authentic experience-- we could tell by how many South Asian families were there!…read more The butter chicken sauce was so thick that we took our leftovers home and marinated chicken wings in it; this was perfection. Also, it was nice to see an accessible washroom-- a rarity in Toronto! The only thing that I didn't like was that the salty lassi had cumin seeds in it, but that's my fault because I was expecting something more akin to ayran. The star of the show was definitely the chaat papri-- the crispy wafers and the tamarind sauce are my favourite! I'm so glad the waiter recommended this to us. I would love to come back here and eat my way through this menu!

This is a new Pakistani restaurant which just opened on 2025-07-11 along Danforth Ave. I noticed…read morethe bright sign outside so I had to come in the investigate. Since I wasn't there for a meal so I only ordered their Gulab Jamun (4 pcs, $5.99). It tasted and full of sugary goodness as expected. I also ordered a pop ($1.75). The customer service was good. The vibe is simple and clean. They can comfortably seat 18 people. There is one little table outdoors for 2 people. Another diner, who was there, was familiar with Pakistani food. She said the Garlic Naan ($3.99) is amazing. I could see it was large for $3.99! She also ordered the Chicken Jarahi (5 bone, $23.99). She said both were delicious. They also do catering. There is no free WiFi. The restaurant is wheelchair accessible, but there is no door-open button. There are separate male/female washrooms downstairs so they are not wheelchair accessible. There is paid and free neighbourhood street parking. Review 2025-143

Consistently delicious food with great prices!…read more The daal ghosht (lentils + lamb) is my favorite dish from the place. Long simmered lentils with lots of lamb for the buck and the springy refreshing taste of ginger spiked throughout! Recommended with a soft and aromatic naan which they do very well. Can't go wrong with the kebabs either, both chicken and beef seekh were great. As was the goat biryani, done Lahori style, so fragrant and flavourful!
