Common Concerns

Showing 2 of 5

The Bottom Line

Khan Gi Restaurant is a Pakistani-focused Indian restaurant in International City, with a casual desi setting and a menu that works for both meals and snacks. Reviews specifically mention chicken karahi, kebabs, haleem and nihari, while the breakfast menu gets attention for chicken cheese paratha, bun kabab and halwa poori. There is also family seating, including a spacious area praised by one reviewer.

The strongest case for visiting is the combination of familiar Pakistani flavours and budget-friendly portions. Diners have called the mutton pulao, fish tikka and grills excellent, and several reviews describe the pricing as reasonable or economical. The restaurant also covers street-food cravings, including Pakistani shawarma and zinger-burger combinations.

Quality is not completely steady. Recent complaints include beef and mutton dishes containing mostly bones, hard pulao rice, an almost raw aloo paratha and a cold burger delivered after an hour. Delivery has also been reported as more than 40 minutes late, so takeaway timing deserves attention.

Hygiene and service attracted criticism in some visits, despite other customers describing the staff as quick, polite and helpful. For a first visit, dine in if possible, order the better-reviewed grills or breakfast items, and check meat portions and doneness before accepting takeaway.
