After a flight delay and an unwanted hotel airport stay, my wife used it as an opportunity to hit…read moreSouth Hall for some south Asian food. Two friends recommended this spot. So first. Service. They are busy. Very busy. It's hard to get anyone's attention. When we did, the young women was in a constant rush and a little rude. As an example - I placed our food order and also asked for chai. She abruptly said "no too busy go somewhere else for that." Later, I saw other people order and get chai after their meal at the table next to us. There was another guy running back and forth. I must have asked for water 4 or 5 times before he finally just dropped a bottle off on the table while running by with no glasses. Getting the check was an ordeal. So finally I just walked up to the counter and asked for it at the take away register and the same rude women said "just pay here". I gave her my Amex and it wasn't going thru she just kept saying "decline". She did it two or 3 times. Then I said "do you take Amex". She says "no only visa MasterCard." I don't expect white glove service at spots like this, just don't be rude. Maybe say I'm sorry we are too busy tonight. Anyway. The food. That saved the day.

With long, communal dining tables, and an open kitchen, Gifto's offers interesting sights, sounds,…read moreand smells in addition to delicious Pakistani food. Without the slightest intent of eavesdropping, you hear the juiciest gossip about people you probably will never know. I've now been to Gifto's on three occasions, all at lunchtime, when the restaurant is not nearly as busy as it gets in the evenings. Everything I've tried has been fresh and delicious. The magaz (sheep brain) masala is the best offal dish I've had in many years. The ginger chicken and chili chicken have the perfect flavor profies. Among the breads, the roghni naan (with a very generous topping of sesame seeds) and the tawa paratha are outstanding. I could eat the tawa paratha every afternoon with my tea, and be a happy man. I've never had any issues with the service at Gifto's but I can see how it can come off as somewhat indifferent, especially for those of us visiting from the US, where service is generally oversolicitous.

I didn't think the menu was very helpful for someone not to familiar with Indian, Pakistani, Afghani cuisine. Mostly just the name of the dish, no ingredients. But the waiter was happy to give some recommendations. Not five stars as I didn't really like the decoration and the service (we were served by 4 different waiters) was quite chaotic. They have Wi-Fi.

We wanted some fresh jalebi but the guy pointed at the stuff he had out there from yesterday and we said no. Everything looked like yesterdays food...Asked to use the bathroom and the answer we got was "it is locked at this hour"...then unlock it!!!! Got negative vibes from the shop attendant so we left and ended up eating across the street where we were treated like paying customers and we were given hot and fresh made food. Never coming to this place again. Not to mention we came from USA and I came directly to this place since I saw it on TicToc. What a shame this place didn't end up being what i expected.

Luckily this place was open and looked promising. The menu had both Chinese and traditional Pakistani/Indian options. I got the butter chicken, pulao, and lassi. The butter chicken was tasty and the pulao was absolutely phenomenal!! The lassi was more like a thick milkshake and I did not enjoy it at all :( My friend tried some of the Chinese dishes and I thought they were all quite tasty. Afterwards, we spoke to the owner a bit and he told us a little about the history of the restaurant and about the Southall area. I'm glad we stumbled upon this place!

My daughter ordered idli and she said it was fluffy, soft and it was served hot throughout as it was freshly made. I ordered Paneer Thali dish, delicious paneer, portion is really good, can't finish it all and naan is well made, soft. I ordered plain dosa, the sambar is tangy and spicy couldn't stop eating it. Highly recommended place to dine with the family. The restaurant's ambience was great. Delicious vegetarian food. Service was excellent, my daughter wanted to try the chaat but couldn't eat some ingredients and they gave one extra piece of plain chaat for her to try. Will definitely go back and try the other dishes.

The Hindi music is blasting from the speakers so choose your table well, if there is choice. The place is filled with mostly Indians, couples and families. The food comes rather quickly and is just great! The menu is huge and choosing is too difficult so I just order whatever I fancy and think I can manage to eat. The chaat is such typical Indian street food and at Rita's they have a lot of choice. I loved the Dahi Puri and the samosas. They offer sizzling dishes like tikka paneer, which was not spicy enough to me but very tasteful. We had a plain dosa which comes with the standard chutneys and it was good.
