Charsi Karahi 1553 London Road, London SW16 4AD

"Tasty Karahi, Chops, namkeen ghost and kabli pulao. Clean private cabin to sit with family on the floor. Free parking on the street after 7 pm. on weekdays and all day on Sunday. Should have served the bbq before the main menu, even we asked to serve separately, but they said that, we should wait until all are prepared and served."

"Came here with 10 people/a couple of families, The room we were given was not clean, food particles was on the carpet which we had to ask to be hovered and food area wiped down. The room itself had nails sticking off the walls and could do with a update. The smaller booths looked better and the largest room was more modern. The layout of the place and seating is unique and has character. Definitely dated and not to everyone's taste. Service was very slow, as they said it was being made fresh. So a pre order is advised. The food was good with quality ingredients used. I would eat again. This is more a group of guys place who are into their meat, lounging and not so concerned about the atmosphere. The other disappointment was they asked for cash saying their card machine was not working. Ended up doing a transfer. I would order the chops, chapli kebabs and kabuli rice again as a takeaway. Honest food, for the price though would expect a better dine in experience. Wouldn't take the family or go again unless it was a small group of guys."

"If you haven't eaten here yet, why not!? This also means you actually haven't eaten good food. And lastly, this place has the best lamb, chicken, meat you will have."

"I have been here many times with family. I should have wrote this review before. Amazing taste of lamb. It is expensive, but for the taste, I wouldn't mind going here again and again. Also, the sitting place is nice and cozy for families. The staff is also mostly good, and environment in general is great."

"Karahi in the house!!! Greeted with respect, and allowed ample time to order chicken karahi with medium spices. The chef was knowledgeable and understood the spiciness and the amount of naans we would be able to eat!!! After a 30 minute wait, food came out piping hot - absolutely delicious, and authentic. After food, we were treated to peshwari kehwa, with traditional sugar pieces - the drink was on point. This place is a whole in a wall, and if you don't mind that, the its an absolute jem that will genuinely surprise you!!!"
