"The goat Karahi is out of this world."
"Amazing authentic Pakistani food."

"It took 1hour to get there when we got there a manager told us the only seats available were outside even though there were 10 tables available and it was freezing cold outside it was so cold we had to leave."
"These people are very disorganized. We walked in for Lunch today and stood by the counter for 5 minutes with the attendants passing by and no one even cared to look at and respond."
"They have few parking spots so sometimes it is hard to get one."
"Don’t buy food and order online because I order only and unfortunately I didn’t get my food because of stupid deliver guy who deliver my food to on wrong address and when I contact to the restaurant they didn’t resolve my problem."
"Their outdoor dining setup in the evening reminded me about the busy streets/roads of Karachi (Pakistan), the city of lights, perfectly lit."

"It's expensive. It's $18 per person for their weekend buffet."
"very less quantity for so much $$."
"The portion size is very small as compared to the high price."
"Relatively expensive as compared to quality and service."
"The reason for losing one star is the addition of 18% 'service chargers' on already a bit over priced food in comparison to the competition close by."
"Gratuity they charge 18% be care full when you go there you will pay 18% extra for no reason."
