Akmals Catering

I just wanted to thank you for a fantastic experience today. The service was friendly and respectful, and the food was absolutely delicious fresh and flavorful. I truly enjoyed my visit and will definitely be back soon! 😊

Visited Akmal’s kitchen with friends and family recently located in Springfield, the Desi Hub. It has by far the best tasting Pakistani food in Northern Virginia! Menu has great options for all kinds of food from appetisers, vegetarian options to specialty food! We ordered the chicken pakoras, chaat for appetisers and for main course, mix sizzling platter, goat korma, Nihari (fall off the bone beef), chicken biryani, butter chicken. The biryani was very fresh, very fragrant and the chicken fall-off-the-bone moist and tender--some of the best we've had. The butter chicken was excellent-the sauce wonderful to enjoy with the moist and flaky naan. They also have buffet every day, which I will try next time!
The owners and staff are very friendly and accommodating! Everything has been consistently fresh, delicious, and filling. Generous portions as well. Will definitely be back here again n again!
Always enjoy their catered food at the weddings and parties. Permanent customer!

We are deeply grateful to Akmal’s Kitchen for their outstanding arrangements for Adil and Hira's wedding event. Despite being out of the country, Mr. Akmal stayed connected via livestream, while Mrs. Khizra Akmal and her team executed everything beautifully. The food was exceptionally delicious, with the live BBQ and Halva Puri being particular highlights.We wholeheartedly recommend Akmal’s Kitchen to everyone. Not only is the food exceptional, but Mr. and Mrs. Akmal are wonderful to work with. The entire team demonstrated unwavering dedication throughout, regardless of the weather conditions.Last but not least, I would like to thank Mr. Imran Haider for managing everything so smoothly and with a great smile.— Altaf Khan & Family

The food is so good! It tastes like home cooking! The worker was so helpful, he explained what different things on the menu were and it was fantastic! The meat just falls off the bone, the naan is warm and fresh! It’s an amazing spot!

Very good food but I called several times yesterday to place a pick up order and the number listed on the site is not a working number. So once I arrived around 7:30pm to order, I was then told they are closed and aren't taking anymore orders, and of course the door wasn't locked. When I asked why they were closed so early, I was told they had received a large catering order. I'm not really sure what that had to do with myself or a running functional business. Will not be returning here no time soon!!
Very disappointed customer, not very professional.

Karahi kabab I was there saterday food was really old bed and they were hurry to close at 8 pm chicken biryani test like 4 day olds very bed service .

This past weekend on Saturday I ordered takeout Desi breakfast of Halwa Puri $10 and goat payas with naan $16. Separate order of Chanas with one naan at $10. To my surprise the Halwa Puri consisted of two small containers. One with Halwa and the other with Chanas and Alu bujya on top of each other. The hard puris were like brown fried wheat rotis. Puris are white, fluffy and soft. I was disappointed and will not come here again. However the owner,server and chef (same person) handling my order is polite, friendly and respectful.

What a wonderful place to get your take-out. We dined in though. The Keema Kabab was mouth watering. We had the Best Beef Steak and Nehari. Finished with the reach tasting Kheer. They took their own time to prepare the food, but believe me every second was worth the waiting that's because the Owner himself is Chef, not some Latinos trained to be a cook as in case of most of the area restaurants around there.

Excellent service from the owner, staff, and meal. Excellent client care.
