My friends & I mistakenly went into Mama Khan before opening hours & was treated very kindly by all the staff there. He gave recommendations & gave us the option to see the previous menu. The food was spectacular. As someone who was surrounded by South Asian cuisine growing up, the dishes we got were like a blast to the past. We started off with pani puri, then Peshawri Karahi Chicken, & another meat dish that I forgot the name of. Everything was served on hot plates with sauces on the side. I was very satisfied by the end of my meal & I was so happy to have found an authentic Pakistani restaurant.

Food is decent, karahi is very dry ; we Could notice the flour mixture in the chapli kebab Not a huge fan of the forced 15 percent tip on a 170$ order..
Maybe this is more of a dine in restaurant. We got a take out on a particularly snowy day. Food was okay, expected more out of the chicken karahi. Naan didn't seem freshly made. Hope to try it again in a better season & eat at the restaurant.
Love it here! The food was amazing & the service was lovely. I loved the space too, so cozy, especially when it snows. Definitely bringing anyone I can here!💖
The food is terribly good specially chappali kebab. It tasted so much like the afghan version of northern areas in Pakistan. Giving 5 star is totally worth the price, taste & ambiance.
I would not be too excited about the flavor of the food as it was below average but their intent was good. The daal was very bland & the butter chicken was also not actually butter it was probably made with some readymade masala. The chicken itself was very rubbery.
Excellent restaurant. Si vous aimez la nourriture indienne, vous adorerez ce restaurant pakistanais avec plusieurs recettes de Peshawar.. Tout est bon & de nombreux plats sont excellents ! Le restaurant est très simple & l'ambiance totalement détendue TOUT À FAIT RECOMMANDÉ
The only good food is Chapli kebab. Butter chicken have no taste, biryani is boiled rice with colour,chicken karahi is just flavour less cooked. Was very disappointed. Not even close to pishawari food.
