    Biryani
    Divyank S.

    The food that I have tried is Chicken Biryani and Lamb Chops. The portion of biryani is good enough to full you. The ambience is quiet because most of the crowd that come are families.

    If you're craving for chicken tikka, biryani, naan kinda food, and if you have good spice tolerance, this is the place. The ambience is vibrant, traditional dhaba style, gives an authentic touch! We weren't asked for the spice levels, the food was delicious but couldn't handle spice the next day, iykwim :(

    Roti

    Happy that Lahore Tikka House has reopened after the unfortunate fire. Ordered takeout - Chicken kebabs, Lamb Karahi, Till Naans & Roti. Both dishes were delicious with tender meat and flavourful. The breads were baked just right and love their idea of putting a circular cardboard support underneath the round breads .... They travel well and are not folded over. Staff are courteous, professional and with welcoming smiles.

    Gol gappe

    I wanted to love this place because I was craving Indian or Pakistani food. Unfortunately, I found the food too spicy and I ended up not fully enjoying my meal. Service was okay. Our waiter was slow. The other waiters were fine. I thought the channe were just okay- solid 7/10. Biryani in general is spicy but I felt this was over the top- 5/10 The chicken tikka was delicious - 10/10 Naan was way too crispy for my taste - 7/10 Gil gappe was amazing - 12/10 star of the show They don't have mango lassi, only mango shake, was slightly irritated by that because they had salty lassi. Too bad they were even out of the salty lassi.

    Lamb and garlic pita

    The food here is very flavourful, and got a kick of spice. Not featured on the photos, we also got a small veggie plate, which was super delicious. The only reason I bumped a start down was due to our waiter. He dropped waters spilling all over the table. We also ordered ribs and got lamb instead, which was fine. It still tasted good, but a little spicy for my mild tastes. He also forgot to bring out a second order of rice and garlic naan for the group of friends we were with. Despite all of this, the food tasted great. The portions are pretty big! On top of the food you already ordered, they come around with complimentary shishito peppers should you want some. For families with strollers: there's a giant sign at the entry which says you are not allowed strollers by your seat.

    Mixed Tikka Platter.... Chicken wasn't fully cooked
    Anika R.

    About 10 years ago, my family dined at Lahore Tikka on our Toronto trip. The kebabs were to die for and we had to visit again on our trip this time, but all we were served was disappointment. The service was extremely bad - the waiters were rude, it took them forever to serve us water and refill, and it was pretty slow for a fairly empty restaurant. As for the food, I recall really liking their kebabs but they didn't live up to the quality I remember. We ordered the Mixed Tikka plate and the chicken wasn't even fully cooked... they refused to believe us after we told them and it took them a while to finally consider giving us a new platter. We also ordered the Butter Chicken and Paneer Tikka Masala, and the sauce for both were very lemony and tart which is unusual for both of these dishes. It has been a while since we last visited so maybe management has changed because the quality of this restaurant is no longer the same. We definitely will not be going back here on any of our future Toronto trips.

    Naans and Butter Chicken.  Must have!! The taste is so incredibly out of this world!

    Came to visit my brother-in-law here in Toronto, Canada. We ate at Lahore Tikka House. This restaurant is not like your typical restaurant. The decor is plain and simple. However, it makes it feel very casual. I love that! My first time eating Pakistani cuisine. It was incredible!! At the end of dinner, I was so stuffed I can't move! Lol the staff were so friendly!! The atmosphere was great!! The place is packed with people. I would definitely like to come back!

    We tried their Gol Gappe (pic 1) which is a snack that is a fried puff that you fill with a mixture of potatoes and chickpeas and spices. These are super tasty and the kids had fun eating the puff balls. The mains were the Chicken Biryani which we've had several times before. It was actually one of the better versions we had, packed with chicken. The other was their Karahi Lamb (Curry) and doesn't look appealing but it was the sleeper hit. I love Lamb Curry in general but this was was really good y'all. The meat pieces were super tender and the dish was really tasty. Totally recommend. We also pigged out on Naan and Gulab Jamun. Overall we've had pleasant experiences here but it's like a treat coming here because it's more on the expensive side.

    What comes to mind when you think about Pakistani food? You might assume that it's pretty much the same as Indian food. Although there are certainly some similarities, I tend to describe it as more of an Indian/Middle Eastern hybrid, as you'll see influences from both cultures in Pakistani cuisine. Knowing that Pakistan is sandwiched between Iran, Afghanistan, and India tends to make all of the food pieces fall into place. And the best place to try it in Toronto? Lahore Tikka House in the Little India part of Leslieville is the undisputed choice. You Gotta Eat Here! featured them in their fourth season and blogTO has listed them as the #1 Best Pakistani Restaurant in the city. I visited on a Sunday evening and certainly the first thing that caught my attention is how massive their property is. The two storey building is huge, plus they have their own parking lot and an entire tented patio area. You cannot miss it. I love all of the motorized rickshaws that they have parked out front which really adds to the authentic and fun vibe of the place. It was a hot summer's day and we were seated on the patio. As such, I didn't see much of the inside of the restaurant but from what I understand, they have dining areas on both levels. The colours on the walls are jewel-toned and there are several beautiful murals decorating the space as well. The patio outside is draped in lovely sari-like materials. The restaurant feels nothing short of palatial. The menu is quite extensive and our friendly server was happy to help answer our questions. I was excited to try the special Kashmiri Chai that they make but was unfortunately informed that they didn't have any. Nor their plain chai. This was disappointing because a beautiful chai done properly is one of my favourite drinks. One of the first things that happened is a sword was brought around with flame-blistered green peppers skewered onto it. I wrongly assumed that these would be similar to shishitos... Instead these peppers were very, very spicy. I managed a few bites and couldn't continue! However, I loved this special touch. There is a cute part of the menu that serves up Lahori Street Food and I really liked the idea of this! Unfortunately, we had so many other dishes to order that we couldn't get anything from this section but I would love to on a future visit. Two sauces were delivered to our table; one hot sauce that tasted like it was based in tamarind and a cool yogurt sauce that was seasoned with warm spices. These were both delicious and perfect accompaniments to every other dish of the evening. First to arrive was our Butter Chicken (Boneless, red creamy sauce - $16.99) from the Karahi / Curries part of the menu. A karahi incorporates onions, garlic, ginger, chillies, tomatoes and garam masala spices. I was hesitant to order this because it seemed like such a "safe" and "typical" choice. But on the other hand, butter chicken is delicious so... Here we are. This dish arrived firey hot and spitting molten lava. The pieces of chicken were large and tender, truly bathed in sauce. The curry sauce was quite thick, which I liked, and it had a certain tang to it that I found to be enjoyable and unique. Probably not the best butter chicken that I've ever had but still a very good version. Of course we also visited the Tandoori Naans section of the menu because it would be wrong not to! This flat leavened flour bread is baked in a tandoor, a cylindrical clay oven. I could see the cook making it exactly this way through the window. Plain Naan ($2.89 each) seemed like the right choice because I didn't want any other flavours crowding out the other dishes. Although they do offer seven different types. At first we tried to order three of these but our server smartly advised that only two would be plenty. She was right! We could barely finish two because they were so large. Naan is used as a utensil and the diner rips pieces of bread off and uses it to pick up and eat the food on their plate. This version was very simple and uniform - maybe even a bit too perfect. I tend to prefer a less refined shape and a bit more chew to my naan but at the end of the day you can't go wrong with bread. Next up: Seekh Kababs, the restaurant's specialty. Known for its spice, we chose one Beef and one Chicken (Minced meat infused with coriander, ginger & garlic. Grilled on a traditional clay oven and served on a sizzling platter - $4.29 each). These certainly did arrive to our table sizzling profusely! I could tell that the meat had been formed onto a skewer, expertly crafted, and then cooked. Each kabab was extremely flavourful and bursting with delicious spice. Both types of meat were very good and I liked that we tried both for a bit of variety. This is the kind of item that you just get because you're going to want it. We needed rice (curries are always best eaten over rice) and I was finding our meal order to be a bit chicken-heavy. Our server suggested looking to the Biryani sectio

    Delicious food, always hot and fresh. Great service and so friendly. The ambiance is so nice and welcoming, fun and inviting. Best Indian/Pakistani cuisine. You gotta eat here.

On top, the poutine was somewhat cold. The jerk chicken was interesting. I thought I ordered Jamican food but it turned out something different. I was not sure if this was supposed to be a Korean dish or Jamican. Anyways, the dish itself was somewhat cold when I got it. The jerk chicken was somewhat dry. Strange was that it was served with kimchi, corn and some green drizzled on top was spicy mayo sauce. So I felt like it had a bit of Japanese, Jamican and a bit of Korean. I don't think the flavor went well together. They were somewhat skimpy on the jerk chicken. I was told by a colleague that their fusion tacos (instead of tortilla, they used roti) are really good. Maybe next time I try this food truck, I will get that instead. Anyways, I do not recommend getting the Jerk chicken here.

They are like the tornado potato fries (which they also offer) but they are not on a stick, and on a plate, they look simply delicious. Seriously, we had the plate on our table for less than a minute before a passerby demanded to know what it was and went to order it right away. I bit into it, expecting it to taste like regular ol' chippy things, but to my delight, these were the freshest potatoes EVER! They were also perfectly salted. Omnomnom. The truck is a bit plain and could definitely use better marketing to sell these amazing fries and poutines.

The portion of poutine was massive and the cheese curds were perfectly mixed throughout (which is actually an accomplishment since so many places just top their fries with cheese). The best was the gravy; hot, thick (without lump) and a great salty flavour!

The water stations provided by the event host had a long line and not wanting to wait I decided to purchase a few water bottles for my friends and I because we were all very dehydrated. I went to this food truck because it had the shortest line. And of course there was a reason why. When it came to my turn to order, I asked for 3 bottles of water. The employee was very rude and said "you want water you have to buy food. No food, no water" I asked why can't I just buy the bottle waters and he said "Water is for customers only, if you're not ordering, leave" But if I'm buying water at $5.50 does that not make me a customer? I'm still spending money at the business and paying $5.50 for 1 bottle of water!! Being desperate, I order 2 tacos for $12.42, and asked for 3 waters. Again, the employee so rudely said "Only 1 bottle, if you want more you have to order more tacos" .. I was in disbelief. I paid $17.92 for 2 crappy and dried, barely any sauce chicken tacos.. all for 1 bottle of water. Had the food tasted better, maybe I wouldn't be as upset. But chewing the chicken was like rubbing sand against my mouth. I am telling this story not because I want to damage the business by any means, I like supporting small businesses when I can, but when a business is not honest, ethical or morally right I feel like I should speak up. Needless to say, I will not support this business and do not recommend anyone to support such an inhumane and unethical business. I have attached photos of how they responded to my Facebook review. As you can see it doesn't really make sense that they only had 2 cases of water. This was simply just a money grab opportunity.
