Tips for a Better Visit

Showing 2 of 6
1

Ask first. Before eating the arrival salad or raita, ask whether it is complimentary; diners reported being charged for it.

2

Choose curry. If you do not enjoy smoky food, favour curry or tawa dishes over the smoked mutton kebab.

The Bottom Line

Pak Sufi is a Pakistani restaurant in Al Qusais with a menu that suits both full meals and breakfast stops. The clearest strengths in the reviews are chicken handi, tawa daal mash, samosas, and halwa puri with chana. One curry can be enough for two, and the wholemeal rotis received a specific nod from a diner who returned mainly for the mutton handi and roti combination.

The setting is casual rather than polished. Separate family cabins are available, but several reviews describe the indoor area as cramped; outdoor seating is generally preferred. Service feedback is mixed: many diners describe polite, attentive staff, while others mention an ignored complaint, a long queue, or a 20–30-minute wait.

There are a few practical catches. Ask before accepting the opening salad and raita, since customers say these may be charged separately. If you dislike smoky flavours, choose a curry or tawa dish instead of the smoked mutton kebab.

Delivery appears less dependable than dining in, with reports of late arrivals, cold rice and opened packaging. Front parking is paid, while one reviewer reported free parking behind the building.
