This cozy restaurant has left the best impressions! Hospitable hosts, delicious dishes, beautiful presentation, wide food list and wonderful dessert. I recommend to everyone! I would like to come back here again and again.The service we received was so amazing and we will definitely be back again. They made us feel welcomed and gave us an amazing experience.It’s a great experience. The ambiance is very welcoming and charming. Amazing food and service. Staff are extremely knowledgeable and make great recommendations.This place is great! Atmosphere is chill and cool but the staff is also really friendly. They know what they’re doing and what they’re talking about, and you can tell making the customers happy is their main priority. Food is pretty good, some classics and some twists, and for their prices it’s 100% worth it.Excellent food. Menu is extensive and seasonal to a particularly high standard. Definitely fine dining. It can be expensive but worth it and they do different deals on different nights so it’s worth checking them out before you book. Highly recommended.We are so fortunate to have this place just a few minutes drive away from home.Love this place and will continue to visit.The Manager of this restuarant Mr. MOHAMMED ALI is very professional and friendly personality 5 stars to this place

Shahi batair. Naan. Salad. Raita. 1 soft drink = 53 dhs.Deal 5 - chicken Tikka Boti. Mutton kunna paya. Mutton Daleem. Chicken biryani. Naan. Salad. Raita. 1 soft drink = 50 dhs.Chicken biryani - this was very tasty and served in a small plastic container.Mildly spicy and no potatoes.Mutton Daleem - portions size was very less.Mutton Karahi - all bones and less meat.Each set was served with individual salad, Raita and a soft drink.Overall money paid for the food was ok but they seemed to be missing out on flavor.Parking is available outside restaurant.

A quiet and nice place for a meal. Atmosphere is good and feels comfortable.Very helpful and friendly staff.The food is good , but felt a little less spice. Meat is cooked well and juicy.Haleem is a must try !A variety of dishes to choose from.Bbq section available, but make sure to eat it when hot.Fried prawn was nice and crunchy 👍 green fish also was good.Jus felt the rotis and paratas were little hard. U can get it made there.Many desserts to choose from. All traditional ones like feerni and kherr was yumm. Others were ok.They have a kids section too.The chafers looks unique with horizontal sliders , but not much light to see the food inside.Price is overall ok .

Dear lalqila teamI would like give you one suggestion please consider itOn this Thursday I arrived at restaurant without a prior reservation and I was told that there is no place or empty table where I can be served with my guestsKindly always keep a space for walk-in guestsIt’s a kind of embarrassment where in front of your guests you are being told of no space and get returnedAlways keep space for non reservations guests although they are arrived there for foodDon’t do full reservations from your sideBecause if you refuse reservations its okay, but don’t return some one from the restaurant with out serving themThank you in advance for your understandingRegards

After our visit to Sheikh Zayed, our tour guide suggests here for buffet lunch. I did not expect much for a buffet with a price at AWD65/ head, but honestly it is out of my expectations. I highlight here something they freshly made, fried fish, bread, BBQ chicken and lamb. The hot sauce from the BBQ section is a must try, it works well with everything.

Review №27

There is not much Pakistani restaurants in Abu Dhabi, so Lal Qila is a good place to visit. Plenty of free parking is available outside the restaurant. Food quality and variety is good with many desserts items specially their gulab jamun and kheer was delicious. Only thing annoyed us is their poet in mughaliya customs, he is very hard working and talented but he should not go to all tables without inviting him and disturbing and interfering people while they are having food. The ambience is good as they have given the mughals touch.This abu dhabi branch is much better than dubai.

Pathetic customer service by the managers on the contrary lower staff servers waiters were very friendly and good at their job. But the manager on floor had zero knowledge about the food he was serving and huge claims which were all baseless and went to the extent of saying we cannot adhere to all the Govt rules (with regards to social distancing SOPs)

Ramadhan iftar buffet 2021 was very poorly organised. I had a booking but on arrival they could not give me a table near the main buffet. They asked me to go upstairs and comebdown for the buffet.The food as such was average quality.Overall will not recommend this place.

A very nice, calm, not much expensive, buffet with lot of food variations. Tasty grilled items to curry items. There are plenty of options. There are options for vegetarians as well. Some European and East Asian options are also available. Deserts were also yummy. For me, the main reason to give 5 stars was the staff, They were very friendly, attentive and most importantly, keep checking on us time to time. Around 3 managers or supervisors visit our table as well.

The lunch buffet is reasonably priced and excellent in variety. The entertainment is a highlight. The foods quality is good, but the meats are sometimes hard and really dry– making them indigestible. The experience is fun nevertheless, and the service and ambience are pleasing and relaxed.

In Desi & buffet cuisine, Lal Qila comes in the top list in Abu Dhabi. A must try. They served good number of dishes from Biryani, Pulao, 🐔 🐐 Karahi, 🐟 🐔 🍖 BBQ Kebabs, Chinese dishes, Haleem, salad bar, sweet bar n much more. Fried Prawns are their best and dont forget the lassi. Apart from lunch n dinner buffets, they are also having breakfast buffet too.

Extremely disappointed with offerings at Abu Dhabi Branch. Simply waste of time and money. Price per person is much higher than the variety of food being offered. Poor ambience, congested place , poor service and specially Mutton Meat and BBQ is not upto standard. This branch is not LAL QILA branch at all. Lal Qila Dubai is the right place. Abu Dhabi branch is fake. Not true presentation of their Brand. Sorry but I wasted my money.

Best Indian/Pakistani fusion restaurant in Abu Dhabi.Amazing authentic food, specialities dishes not available in any other restaurant like “Paya“ the healthiest dish !Exceptional service, wonderful staff Especially Deshraj and his teamWith unique view over Emirates Palace and Qasr Al WatanA unique experience not to miss !!

Review №79

Experience is not so good at Abu Dhabi Marina branch. You can go with your loved ones, but only once, not again because the ambience is not so impressive, food varieties and number of dishes are much less as compared with per head charges (AED 80) which is quite high from other buffet restaurants. The taste is average and most of the staff deal with you in a very non-professional way with full of arrogance.

Me and wife went here to have a buffet dinner.The foods are normal was not upto the mark compare to other buffet in this price. However, we found out that the desert they serve has a cockroach. As this was served by there staff due to COVID precautionary norms. The staff & Manager handled it quietly and took the plate from me.The restaurant should check the hygiene of the place especially the kitchen.I hope the management should make a thorough check for the sanitation and manager should not keep on defending to us that this is their first time to experience such incident.
