I drove 30 min to visit this place, I saw halal and good reviews, was the worst food on a Pakistani restaurant that i visit, no taste at all, place dark not clean chicken biryani with no masala and the tandoori chicken has no flavor at all very bad , for the people that know the Pakistani and Indian food I will not suggest to go there it was the worst experience ever, out of all the Pakistani restaurants I’ve never been to this one was the worst, stay away from that place, save your self, I even tried 4 different meals, chapati ?

I can't give this place enough praise. We stopped here on a whim during a road trip from WI to OH, and I'm dead serious when I say that I would drive four hours just to eat here again. We even stopped by again on our drive back home for lunch. The food was sublime both times! This restaurant is filled to the brim with good food and good vibes. Be sure to support a local family restaurant and stop by Chapati!Thanks again, Q!

Man this sandwich never disappoints. Get the spicy if you’re on the fence. They call it a 6 out of 10 spice wise. I might call it a 7, but it’s not THAT spicy and it IS that awesome. The sauce, the pickles, the breading, the soft pita. It’s legit the perfect lunch sandwich.

Soooooo delicious! I asked the person working at the counter what they recommended and they suggested the Karhai (see photo). It had amazing flavor and the goat meat was tender. My friend got the Beef Behari which I also tried a bite of and it was delicious. The chutneys were fantastic as well! Overall, I really enjoyed the vibe of the restaurant: spacious seating, art on the walls, music. Looking at the other reviews, I just want to say - this isn't a fast food restaurant so don't expect fast food prices or immediate food. These are quality slow cooked dishes and the menu states which are made to order. Both my friend and I got two meals out of each dish, so for me it was well worth the cost and the wait was standard. I will definitely be coming back!

I was really anxious to give this place a try, the reviews are really good, pictures look good....but man was I disappointed. Everything came out looking good, but when it came to the tastes, everything was bland and honestly my wife who's never had this type of food said she couldn't tell the difference from one dish to the other as far as taste is concerned. I dropped $100 to try multiple things and get a good experience, and i was overall disappointed. The Naan was good, I'll say that. I don't know if it was an off day or maybe a new cook, whatever it was it just wasn't great.

Excellent authentic Karachi tasting halal, flavorful food. Mixed grill platter was delicious. Professional and courteous customer service! Love love the ambiance, the two carom board seatings and the table tennis table! Highly recommend! The kashmiri tea at the end of the meal is a must!

Honestly, the food was pretty tasty, but the service was lacking. I feel bad, because I feel the guy working was a bit overwhelmed with the patron load. Despite this he was very nice and the food was good. The price was a bit high for the service/amount of food. For $15 I expect to have a side of rice or even naan/chapati to go with my main dish (chili chicken did not come with rice or a side).

I heard a LOT of reviews of Chapati and couldn’t wait to try it. Step in and the ambience takes you back to Indian roots - the seats set up with Carrom board which is a very popular game in India. Shelves decorated with popular spices and a whole lot of diversity defining decor. I much appreciate the variety.Food tasted very authentic, fresh and spice level was very decent. The Chicken boti and side chutney (dip) was a stellar combo. The garlic kulcha (tortilla) wasn’t too garlicky and absolutely soft and fresh. Loved the Asian style of serving dishes which is very common in India and Pakistan. The retro Indian music added to the touch!Not too many people and good spacious seating. 5* for the food and ambience!

I get the point of keeping prices high but they really need to improve serving size. Grill Platter is $65 and 3 people can barely get full. Their taste isn’t South Asian taste either, Biryani tasted old and dry while lamb kabab tasted raw.

Good food kind people WONDERFUL ATMOSPHERE highly recommend
