Barney's Karahiwala Restaurant

We had a great experience dining here! The food was absolutely fantastic!

We ordered the Koila Karahi, Garlic Naan, and Rogni Naan, and everything was full of flavour and served piping hot. The service was quick too, our food arrived within 30 minutes.

A special shoutout to Arpan who took our order; she was incredibly kind and friendly, which made the experience even better. Would definitely come back again!

We came from far away and it was already closed at 10 pm while on Google Maps it says it closes at midnight. Very disappointed

Hands down the best authentic Karahi you can eat in all lower mainland! The portions are perfect considering the price, meat is coocked to perfection in an amazing flavourful sauce, their food is made with love ❤️. The service is also great 👍. Wishing you the best and more success in your business. Thank you

One of the worst experience we ever had we are trying to get dinning from last five time and every time the staff of restaurant said we dont have dinning do take out if you want otherwise sorrey what does it mean the very very very poor coustmer service. I need owners contact no to complain about the staff very disrespectful way of talking.

We came from a lot of places today for dinner, but the hotel was closed at 10 pm, but the address said it was open until 12 pm. The waiter was also rude. Try to improve your business management.

I recently ordered chicken karahi from Barney's Karahiwala for the first time. I called ahead and asked about portion sizes, and the girl on the phone told me that a half portion serves two people. Based on that, I ordered two half portions.

When I arrived to pick up the food, I discovered there's a "full" option that serves the same amount but costs $10 less. When I asked why I was being charged $60 instead of $50, her response was, "Oh, I packed it in two boxes." That was a bit cheeky, and honestly, I felt misled. She could've easily told me that a full portion was available and would save me money.

The food itself was okay, naans were amazing —no complaints there—but I’m docking one star for the lack of transparency and upselling without informing the customer. A little honesty goes a long way.

This restaurant was off the blocks very quickly and stamped their authority with their signature Krahai dishes. Until last few months they were the best in at least tri cities but something has happed here and it on sharp downhill slope. Taste, ingredients, flavours and freshness has gone missing. I gave it couple of months and few trips before a review.

After a long time, I finally experienced an authentic flavor of pakistani karahi that truly satisfied my taste buds. It was a refreshing and delightful experience!

today i visited this restaurant for buffet dine in with my friends. The food was really good and their service was great specially server named Aysha. her customer service was up to the mark. she served us the appetizer we were waiting for and even the desert. we really appreciate her good service. Do recommend to visit this place.

Their iftar buffet is poorly organized. We called them a few days earlier to let them know that we will be a party of 13 people. They didn’t refill the trays at all when needed and the servers kept saying ‘we already refilled it thrice’ which wasn’t true because the dish was empty from a very long time and it was empty when the request was made. Their job is to refill it instead of lying about doing it. The food was ok, less options. Zaiqa is 10x better organized with better food.

Eiditing again March 2025. We decided to try thier iftar buffet. Everything was stale, not enough variety for iftar items, undercooked chicken tikka. Pakorey were a joke, no Chana chaat or Dahi Bhalley, fruitchat was was disappointing. Only one thing was fresh and that was karahi. Biryani was 100% days old. Rooh Afzah and tang tasted more like water. Never coming back again.

Changed my review because the breakfast was so bad. Overpriced and food were clearly from the night before. The menu was more like lunch. No usual breakfast items. The food was very old and tasted really bad. Nothing was fresh.

This place is good for dinner but not for breakfast. The place was nice and clean.
