    Beautiful restaurant and wonderful service. The Lamb with Spinach and Buttered Chicken was the best we've had this far. This is a must visit if you are in the area.

    For our last night in Copenhagen we decided to go to a Pakistani restaurant for dinner which is kind of our thing as we have had an extremely good experience with Pakistani restaurants in Europe. We got extremely lucky when we were in Florence and Barcelona and Prague and obviously very disappointed that we got microwaved and frozen food in Rome and Budapest. But that didn't deter us from trying this one in Copenhagen. The night didn't start well as it was raining and we had to wait for 30 minutes to catch a bus which was very unusual as public transport is extremely prompt in all of Europe. But once we got to the restaurant it was all worth the effort. The Sahil restaurant is located a few minutes from the Nyhaven area of Copenhagen. From my research I knew that this was the oldest Pakistani restaurant in Copenhagen. The decor was pretty unique as we entered the restaurant and even though they were pretty busy for a Wednesday night and we didn't have a reservation they had one empty four top that we were seated at. The server came immediately to take the order. We inquired where the cook was from and were told that he was from Punjab which was good to hear as they are usually the best cooks from that region. The server also informed us that all the meat was boneless which is my usual preference to begin with. We ordered the samosa and seekh kebab appetizer to start and got the chicken karahi with two naans for dinner. The food was delicious and extremely well cooked. The server thought we had double the appetite and they actually brought out 2 orders of the chicken karahi, one of which we had to send back as it was too much food. But the food was awesome and I have to put this Pakistani restaurant as most probably the best Pakistani food I have had in Europe. Amazingly the service was excellent too which is usually the only negative thing that you experience in a Pakistani restaurant. 5 stars all the way. Hope to get back to Sahil and Copenhagen in the future.

    Great service with good food. I'll try other options rather try other restaurant options before coming back here again.

    Had an excellent time here. The food is authentic and they are aware of allergies. The gluten free and vegan dishes were made properly :)

Also delicious were the tender lamb and well cooked shrimp. Definitely check this place out for delicious Indian food. The waitress was also very sweet.

She said she'd just eaten here a week before but was happy to go again; that says something! To start the evening, I got an Indian Summer Bourbon (75 dkk) which was nicely heavy on the bourbon but wasn't that great even though there was supposed to be Limoncello in it. Two of my favourite alcohols, how could it have gone so wrong? Also it had some dry herbs sprinkled on top which got all over my lips and teeth so I had to ask for a straw. Odd drink! Luckily the Chettinad Special Fish (137 dkk) fared much better with perfectly cooked salmon/trout in a delicious thick sauce. I was surprised that it came with pink fish as I assumed most fish used in Indian cuisine has white flesh. I guess the restaurant is just working with what they can get here. It came with rice and I ate the whole thing. I also got a bite of Maria G.'s Lamb Sukka Varuval Fry (139 dkk) which had great texture and taste. Normally I don't get dessert but I love Gulab Jamun (55 dkk) so I had to give theirs a try. It was so delicious but also very hot, so be careful! Maria kindly let me have some of her pistachio Kulfi (49 dkk) to cool my mouth and I almost regretted not getting that instead. I love pistachio ice cream and this was no exception! It was a little hard to hear my tablemates in there but I could definitely hear the party behind me. And although the waiter was nice, he forgot about us a couple times as the place was filling up. We asked him for some more fried chilies (which were incredibly salty on their own but seasoned our dishes well) and had to wave him down again once our food was half-eaten. But this is nothing that would keep me from coming back again for great food at a very decent price.
