Khyber Taste Leicester

Qabili pulao was not authentic. The portion and the price was good. But the taste is not that good. Meat wasn't tender.

well where should i start from on 24 oct after celebrating Pakistan's victory... i ordered 1 chicken karhai and 1 lamb karhai from khyber first time thinking its like Pakistani style... what i got is some chicken pieces in swimming pool and some lamb pieces in swimming pool.... taste absolutely horrible.. or should i say there was no taste at all.. its like u cook meat and put it in water and eat with nan... what a waste.. £15 wasted... end up ordering from Rajaz Pizza Bar which was 100% better... look at the pictures... never again..

Traditional afghan food would highly recommend to families the best kabuli rice and chapli kebab and friendly staff.

Very nice Local Afghan traditional food. We are regular customers for many many years. The food was fantastic, variety of choices. Chicken tikka and lamb kebab was delicious. The staff was friendly, atmosphere is cosy go well with the meal.

Ordered plao rice but the meat was boiled separate, also the seekh kabab had no flavour, chapli kaba was very oily, my eyes was watering because of the guy cutting the onions in kitchen with open door, service was good

On the way to london we stopped there for dinner, food was nice but could have been better. Their customer service was excellent, friendly and polite staff. Lamb karahi wasn’t fully tendered but other food items were Ok.

Went there at iftar time and ordered chapli kebab and kabuli pilau. Food was served hot and fresh. Very big and generous portions! Love it.

Had the Lamb seekh kebab and chicken tikka with naan, everything was freshly made and presented well. The sauces were really good too. Taste wise was good but seemed like something missing. Good value for money, would definately try out more stuff.

The owner lovely guy. Food is a let down. Sheek kebabs no taste. Chicken tikka really dry. Naan bread really thick. Disappointed chips really oily.
