Watan

"The Chapli kebab was very good but very pricey. £6.50 for 1. The saag ghost was lamb against tasty food although the lamb could have been tender. The roast chicken was 5 star. . Service was good and restaurant is clean."

"Had dinner with friends at Watan after passing by it and always seeing people queue outside which made me curious . Ordered lamb dumplings, chicken wings and a gravy, bread, rice. Food tasted fine nothing special! We did have to queue outside for quite a bit since it was weekend and dinner time but didn’t feel it worthwhile. Couldn’t get pictures of all the food as we were very hungry from the waiting."

"A lovely family friendly restaurant selling traditional Afghan and Pakistani cuisine curry and grills. For a Monday evening the restaurant was very busy. Waited 30mins for a table which we didn’t mind. The waiter was excellent at front informing us of timeframe and gave us a menu to order to speed up waiting at table which we thought was a very good method to use. The food didn’t take too long once we sat at our table. Staff were friendly and helpful. The food was hot, fresh and was presented very well. We order a special Afghan grill to serve 3-4 people, peshwari Lamb Karachi, nan bread and Mango Lassi. Food was lovely and tasty. We didn’t feel rushed by staff but had waiting customer starring at us to get up and go. I would suggest ordering some chairs for people to wait outside as the inside area is too small and customer spilling inside disrupting people sitting and eating near entrance. I would also suggest staff clean the cooking area looked very messy and untidy/unhygienic. The cooking area was open with glass and the area itself is an experience I and my friends were looking forward to seeing and watching. All we talked about was how untidy area was when going to pay. Price was very reasonable and fair for experience. Overall a good experience, food and service was good."

"Entirely satisfied with the visit. The decor was beautiful, food was delicious and service was excellent. We had the Afghan Mixed Grill with strawberry and classic mojitos. The meat was cooked to perfection, nice and fresh. The drinks were tangy and refreshing. We went at 12pm and within 30 mins it got pretty full, seemed like everyone was enjoying their food too."

"Decent food and very decent prices. I personally wouldn't recommend the curry, it wasn't anything special. But the mix grill platter was good and great value for money. The restaurant can get quite loud and packed during peak times, so something to bear in mind if you're looking to visit"
