Why Travelers Love Lahab Kitchen
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
The food was great with nice ambience. We were expecting s lot of varities but there were perfect 4 combos of rice. The skewers were okay. Parking is limited Excellent local food and a limited menu. Mutton Gossy is the highlight of menu. Mishkaks are juicy. The size of mutton pieces are big. Prices are very reasonable. Service is good. No nonsense place for great non vegetarian food. Really juicy and yummy food! Most of all it’s local cuisine! Muhammad was very attentive and had great recommendations. I have never had any food like this before. Loved the crispy onions on the rice and the grilled chicken was nice! ❤️ Seeing the locals eat in these private carpeted rooms it’s all just so interesting.

I genuinely enjoyed the food; however, my daughter and son were not satisfied due to the unpleasant atmosphere and an odor in the environment. Additionally, the establishment did not provide currency exchange services, which caused significant inconvenience as I had to spend considerable time finding another place to exchange my dollars.

Meat goosy with rice is the go to! The meat is super tender and perfectly seasoned, and they’re generous with the rice (ask them to go easy on it). Skip the skewers though they’re too dry. Overall, great food and great portions!
