The Good Stuff
Lake views
Outdoor seating is a draw, with views across the JLT skyline and Marina.
Buffet refills
The Iftar buffet was praised for its wide variety and consistent refilling.
Desi breakfast
Breakfast stands out for homemade-style parathas, delicious channas and a well-liked omelet.
Tips for a Better Visit
Sit outside. Choose outdoor seating for the JLT and Marina skyline; one review specifically preferred it to the indoor area.
Try karahi. Chicken Karahi is a strong first order for a classic Pakistani meal, with reviews calling it especially memorable.
Save dessert. Leave room for Gajar ka Halwa; reviewers repeatedly describe it as a standout finish.
Check buffet items. If choosing the breakfast buffet, check that hot dishes are fresh, as one visit found some items cold.
Allow time. For lunch, leave extra time for service: one reviewer waited about 35 minutes for food.

The Bottom Line
Little Lahore is a Pakistani restaurant in Jumeirah Lake Towers for classic Lahori cooking, casual meals and family gatherings. The menu ranges from breakfast to BBQ and curries, with Chicken Karahi, mutton seekh kebab, nihari and Lahori Fish among the dishes reviewers discuss most. Takeaway and delivery are also available, and the business description mentions weekly and monthly vegetarian or non-vegetarian tiffin service.
The setting is a big part of the appeal. There is indoor and outdoor seating, and reviewers describe the outdoor area as a good place to see the JLT and Marina skyline, especially with the evening lighting. The restaurant has also handled larger parties smoothly; one group of 11 reported that orders arrived on time without the meal feeling rushed.
Buffets have had mixed evidence. The Iftar buffet earned praise for variety and consistent refilling, while a breakfast-buffet visit found some items cold. Service is usually described as attentive, though one business-lunch review reported a wait of around 35 minutes.
Pricing is another consideration: one diner felt the bill was high for the portion sizes, despite praising the food. For a first visit, outdoor seating and a traditional dish such as Chicken Karahi make a sensible starting point; finish with Gajar ka Halwa if available.
