★ ★ ★ ★ ★ From the exterior , it looked grotty,and the interior was no different. The place needs a face-lift and a make over internally. The prices were similar to other Asian/ Pakistani/ Indian restaurants. Apparently there is a buffet at lunch time, on the weekend. The atmosphere here was...well there wasnt one. There was poor dim lighting; this was probably to stop the customers from actually seeing what they were eating. The ceiling had a nice big hole; what was it that they were trying to achieve here? We had poppadoms as starters with yoghurt sauce. Had a mixed grill platter. Both were not nice at all. The meat had a weird taste; not enjoyable at all. The platter was very small for the price charged. The butter naan was nice. The karai was more of a stew; its quite obvious that the chef doesn't know what a karai is, or maybe he thinks the customers are ignorant of this. The karai had the same weird taste as the grill platter; it was also full of bones and fat. After the meal, we ordered the keer (Rice pudding); this was the right consistency and quite sweet. The tea ( dhood putti) was extremely poor tasting. There was nothing of the meal, besides the keer, that was enjoyable. I'm surprised that no one has complained of the poor quality of food here. Weird. Recommended? Forget it! Go home , you deserve a better home cooked meal from your wife / husband than this poor excuse of a place.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Had amazing experience with them .
They had fresh naan which is served with gravies and bbq.
Bbq platter is good enough with moderate spices.
Biryani rice was average in taste.
Butter chicken taste good only we found it cold when served.
Keema naan is delicious with out doubt.
Better to visit early to enjoy freshly prepared food.
Recommending to visit.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Never seizes to amaze with the high quality food but slightly expensive and while being expensive they truly justify the price.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ If you’re in the mood for some delicious, mouth-watering South Asian cuisine, don’t worry desi fam! I’ve got just the right place for you. Marhaba Restaurant has been around for 36 years now, as said by the manager. And in a continuously changing environment the place has managed to strive and provide consistently good dishes over the years.
We were invited to try their lunch buffet, which is reasonably priced, the place itself is well decorated, seatings are comfortable and the tables, plates and silverware were very clean.
Their selection of Bread(Naan) was really good, one of the best I’ve had. They had a lot of options available for Salads as well for those who love salads. The Chicken Tawa, Fish Special, Mutton Karahi, Chicken Roghan Josh, Mutton Karahi, Vegetable Fried Rice, Chicken Tikka, Mushroom soup all were some of my absolute favorites. That’s not all though, they had more! I wasn’t able to try all of them but that won’t be the case the next time I visit, I’ll make sure of it!
For desserts they had the Creme Caramel, Kheer and Loki Halwa. The Loki Halwa and Kheer were really good, wasn’t a big fan of the Creme Caramel myself but my family ended up liking it.
The staff was super friendly and helpful and even served us some of the dishes straight on our table, the manager came and checked up ok us and asked us how we felt about the food. They really care about their customers! That’s always good to see.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A nice Pakistani restaurant, centrally located in the Olaya Computer Market... The food is delicious and most of the items are reasonably priced. The staff are good too. Quantity is also nice for most of the iteams. There is family section too but not too big, so you might have to wait a bit during weekends. Overall good one for Indian / Pakistani cuisine

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We ordered 2 mixed grills and butter chicken. Disappointed with the overall food and service. The portions are very small and not worth the high price tag. No salad with the mixed grill, just a lemon wedge and few onion slices. The butter chicken was very bland and didn't taste fresh. They only offer Entertainer for dine in. With the quality of this meal I don't even think I'd want to try dine in. Disappointed
