“I visited this restaurant and ordered androon special kulcha and chicken tikka before that it was my first time there and first time tasting pakistani food I'm eagerly waiting to taste their food . I thought chicken tikka would be spicy unfortunately it was not as I tasted. In India i tried chicken tikka in some restaurant it was super spicy 🔥 compared to that it's less spice and like a bland food . And kulcha was so soft I never tasted a kulcha like this before.”

Ask for Chai. Finish with Gurh Wali Chai; multiple reviews single it out as a standout sweet tea.
Explore Breakfast. For a morning visit, look at Halwa Puri and chicken paratha; both received specific breakfast recommendations.
Check Delivery. For delivery, confirm every item when the order arrives because one customer reported missing dishes and another reported a two-hour wait.
Check the Bill. Before paying, compare the bill with the menu and request an itemized receipt, since reviewers reported an unannounced 25% charge.

One delivery review says several ordered items were missing, including the halwa puri set and two parathas.
Two diners reported an unannounced 25% increase, menu-price discrepancies and difficulty getting an itemized bill.
Not every dish lands equally: one diner found the Mutton Peshawari completely bland and the service inattentive.
The Bottom Line
Androon Lahore Restaurant and Cafe is a Pakistani restaurant in International City with a clear Lahori focus. The menu works especially well for hearty desi meals: reviewers repeatedly praise Balochi Sajji, mutton karahi, chicken kadhai and breakfast dishes such as halwa puri. Gurh Wali Chai is the recurring after-meal choice.
The strongest feedback is about flavour and portions. Balochi Sajji has been described as juicy and tender, while mutton karahi is praised for bold traditional seasoning and, in one review, cooking in desi ghee. One diner also found the Balochi Mandi exceptionally generous.
Families mention a clean, comfortable setting and traditional atmosphere, and several reviews describe the staff and owner as welcoming. There is an important service caveat. Most experiences are positive, but delivery complaints include missing items, a two-hour wait and cold food.
Two dine-in reviews also report prices changing by 25% without advance notice, menu discrepancies and difficulty obtaining an itemized bill. Check the current prices before ordering and inspect the bill before paying. For a first visit, Sajji with Gurh Wali Chai is the clearest review-backed starting point.
