“Come here for the kababs! They have all your Karachi kabab fixes. You name it, they have it. We got a mix of their kababs with prathas, masala fries and tha soda. Everything we tried was phenomenal! I see from the other reviews that their biryani is also great, will have to come back for it. Bonus, the owner was very friendly and was making his rounds talking to all his customers. There was a friendly touch to it.“

“Super expensive but so worth it. The food tastes so good, it really feels like they care about their quality. It’s actually spicy too not like other places where they say it’s spicy and it’s not. The fries are amazing I could eat a whole bucket of just their fries.“

“Love! Love! Love! Their dough is absolutely amazing. Haven’t tasted anything like this. Has to be eaten fresh dine-in if u want to experience the delicious fresh crust. Amazing customer service. Very nice ambiance. Only issue I had is there is no option to create your own pizza. My favorite was the malai masti :). My tiny nieces and nephews enjoyed the wings and one of them rated it a “5 star†for wings Vegetarian options: Lots of great veggie options“

Love that you get to choose what sauces you want on top of the meat. You also get to choose between different salad options or you can get rice. Overall one of my favorite spots for cheap eats near Toronto.“
