We went to dine last Friday on 10/2/2022. Food in general was good . How ever one dish was not at par . The goat Karachi was quite tasty except that amount of the meat was half and half fat attached to the bones . The quality of meat was poor and definitely needs improvement , especially when one pays that much for the dish . If it’s meat Karahi then it should contain meat and not 50% fat and 50% meat . Hope the manager of Restaurant pays attention to that .
One of the best restaurants in the country, excellent food, terrific service and beautiful environment.
One of the best restaurants in all of the DMV! All dishes are authentically prepared the old school way, yielding a deep flavor profile reminiscent of what you'd get in Islamabad. The owner obviously takes great pride in the dishes he serves. Loved the karahi and kebabs, but you can't go wrong no matter what you order.
