Everything was absolutely delicious, from the butter chicken to the samosas and gulab jamuns. I felt the spices were very well balanced and I loved the extra kick the chicken had. Very friendly and mindful service, highly recommend!

Delicious authentic Pakistani food that brings the feeling of home right here in KS. I recommend this to anyone who wants that home cooked flavorful feel. The food warms your heart with every bite! Chicken biryani and the samosa chaat is a must. I was able to speak to the owner as well and you can tell she has a love for cooking, support your local family business!

Delicious, warm, and tasty home cooked Pakistani meals couldn’t taste better. Me and my fiancé have been regulars for about 4 years now. Sohaila and Amad are amazing cooks who know what they’re doing when it comes to authentic Pakistani meals. My favorite two dishes are chicken biryani and haleem but you truly can’t go wrong with any of their food!

The samosa chaat here has TWO samosa with just the right amount of sauce and topped with pomegranate for texture, very delicious layers of flavors! Tawa qeema (ground beef in spices) had good amount of ginger and kick to make it very scrumptious with naan. As mentioned elsewhere, if you can't handle spicy food please let them know upfront, or have more yoghurt with your food.

Food that tastes like home! We tried the biryani, samosa chaat, and sampled a bit of everything. Everything was so delicious it was hard to choose a favorite. The portions are also so generous. The owner was incredibly kind and welcoming, which made the experience even better. Highly, definitely, positively recommend!

The owner was so kind and explained the menu so well. The briyani ran out and we got the last one and it was SO GOOD. Highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Lenexa Public Market. They do catering too!

My best friend is Pakistani American and her mother used to make us the most amazing Pakistani food. For years I wished for a place where I could have those dishes again and Sohaila’s kitchen is that place. Not only is the food incredible and made with so much love (the biryani is unlike anything you can get anywhere else), but the people are truly so kind and wonderful. Sohaila is often there cooking the amazing food, and so is her son whose love for her and what they do is so obvious. They truly make you feel like family. Everyone should visit Sohaila’s kitchen. I go every chance I get!

Terrific mango lassi - we had already ordered food from other stalls before we saw this one but I can’t wait to come back and try the food because it looked and smelled amazing, and that lassi was 10/10!

This Kansas City gem is a must-try if you’re in the area or even passing through. The menu is lovingly crafted with authentic flavors, and every dish is a delight! They cater to various allergies and diets, and their portions are generous. If you’re unsure about anything on the menu, don’t hesitate to ask. The owners are incredibly kind and passionate about their food, and you won’t be disappointed!

Kabule palou was absolutely wonderful. Straight out of Pakistan authentic per my husband! We will definitely be bringing the family back again in January. All of the food is also halal so no need to hunt it

I came for the Haleem (specialty served only on second weekends) and it was nourishing and restorative.
