Order Ahead. For delivery or lunch, confirm the order and timing carefully; reviewers reported waits beyond an hour and missed orders.
Try Kadai. Mutton kadai or mutton karahi is the clearest dish recommendation from several reviews.
Check Add-ons. Confirm sides and extras when ordering: one delivery arrived without salad, while another diner was charged for chutney.
Expect Heat. Afternoon diners should be prepared for uncomfortable heat, as reviews mention both a hot open kitchen and faulty air conditioning.
Plan the visit
Multiple reviews report long waits, including delays of more than an hour before orders were taken or delivered.
Delivery complaints include a two-hour wait for a nearby order and a lunch that had still not arrived by 3:30 pm.
Air conditioning was reported as faulty, and another reviewer found the restaurant very hot during an afternoon visit.
Some diners describe dismissive waiter behaviour, poor communication and staff who failed to handle complaints well.
Food quality is uneven: one sadya order had only six curries and reportedly included rotten puli inji.
These are customer-reported mentions, not a current price list. Prices may have changed.

The Bottom Line
Landmark Restaurant is a practical Al Quoz - Al Quoz Industrial Area 2 stop for Pakistani and Indian food, especially if you are looking for an inexpensive lunch rather than a polished dining experience. The reviews specifically point to mutton kadai or mutton karahi, Pakistani chicken biryani, aloo paratha and fried lady finger; the mutton dishes receive some of the strongest praise. Pricing is a major reason people return.
50 lunch meal. The restaurant is bigger inside than its older exterior suggests, and reviews mention seating plus separate facilities for families, although another diner described the clientele as mainly working-class men and said it was not especially family-friendly. Service is the main uncertainty.
Several customers describe orders taking more than an hour to be taken, missed phone orders and deliveries arriving two hours late, even from nearby. Check your order, sides and timing before settling in. One delivery missed the salad and showed Peshwari Chicken at 15 DHS instead of the menu's 12 DHS.
The room can also be uncomfortable: reviewers mention faulty air conditioning and afternoon heat around the open kitchen. Food quality is not completely consistent, so the kitchen's better-known mutton dishes may be a safer first order than a less familiar special.
