Do yourself a favour and order from this exquisite restraunt. The food is absolutely amazing- beautiful presentation and delicious food. I would recommend to everyone! The food is to die for. I enjoyed every single bite! This restraunt has left the best impression.We ordered a whole lamb with rice and vegetables for a special occasion and all was absolutely scrumptious. The lamb was so delectably tenter, marinated with the finest composition spices to tantalise your palette. My hand kept reaching for more as it just slipped off its bones due to being cooked to perfection. The rice was so uniqely spiced to utter mouth watering pefection and the vegetables were roasted on the outside yet nutritiously soft on the inside.It was a meal indeed!

Really good.Straight forward, simple decor with straight forward, simple service.Completely unpretentious and lets the food do the taking. For me though, that's why it isn't quite five stars.Food is good, but not spectacular. My achari chicken was way too salty for a start. But the rest was perfectly fine.One final point is that the open kitchen means the smoke from the cooking fills the whole restaurant. It gets a bit acrid and your clothes might just stink.But it's a good, honest restaurant that is great value for money so give it a whirl

We had the chilli paneer & Tavah platter, great food and service. The small platter was still alot of food for two people! Favourite thing was the Karahi chicken.

Authentic tasting pakistani food, nice decor, great hospitality, and well priced. The owner sets high standards, which are translated into the food and service you get. A must visit place. Oh, and the desi tea is hands down better than the well-known chain...

*EDIT after another visit*Visited with large family party of over 30 people... Superb experience. Excellent food. Great, friendly service.Absolutely fantastic halal food. Very nice tastes across all the dishes.Visited for the first time (after a bit of hesitation) but no regrets.Tava Platter was great but the Karachi Nihaari Special (Lamb Shank) and the Masala Fish was exceptional.Nice family restaurant. Friendly service.

Ever since I moved locally this has been my go-to dining destination. This establishment prides itself for providing authentic Pakistani cuisine which I can 100% confirm it does. So I beg you not to confuse Tavah for your typical anglicised curry house because it is something far better.Having eaten in mostly, I can safely say the interior is kitted out wonderfully, looks amazing with well spaced seating and some booth style seating. The service is quick and efficient, and just remember that this place does not provide alcohol which in my opinion is great because I can enjoy the food much much more.Food wise, where do I begin? I almost always tend to order the Tavah platter dishes as they provide the best bang for your buck in terms of value for money vs the variety of food you get. This thing comes loaded with rice, chips, naan, curry and some grilled meats and vegetables all wonderfully presented on a large sizzling tavah dish. It is truly a sight to behold and one which I strongly recommend you bring your friends for because it really is a crowd pleaser.Everything on it is delicious and nothing ever goes to waste. They are always happy to tweak spice levels depending on your guests tolerances and willing to make minor changes to improve the dining experience. Many of the other side dishes such as the samosa chat and the karela curry I would also highly recommend as they are super tasty and should not be overlooked.I also recently ordered their whole lamb for a party and my goodness how incredible it was. It arrived all wrapped up in foil and was still steaming hot. The lamb itself was stuffed with rice and had been marinated in a special spice mix for 24 hours providing some of the best lamb meat I've probably had. Not to mention this thing has been roasted with a ton of mixed vegetables. It went down so well that it was practically finished by the end of the evening. So if you're able to get enough people together, the whole lamb is something that I would massively recommend. What was even better is that they provided the plates, utensils and cutlery which shows true professionalism towards catering for the masses and not just for diners in their restaurants. So if you need catering services with a bit of added spice, then Tavah is the one for you.Anyways, I could write a whole essay about this but I won't. My recommendation is to go visit this place, because if you like something different to the boring bland Indian curries that litter our high streets, then I beg you to try Tavah, you won't be disappointed.
