Still our favourite chicken tikka stop here in Jhb South. Small pleasant seating area with friendly staff. Check our their daily specials for a decent discount on various meals. The chicken chow mein, chicken fried rice, chicken tikka, mutton biryani and dhal fry are our go to meals. Two thumbs up from me.
Al Mehran Restaurant serves good desi food, with a variety of curries and both vegetarian and non-vegetarian options. Their tandoori roti is a highlight. However, parking is challenging, and the ambiance could be improved.
Chicken korma was creamy and very tasty. Plain naan was thin and soft not thick and hard, amazing! Keep up the good quality, don't deteriorate
Customer service was on point and informed as to when I'll get my order
One of the best spots in the south for delicious Indian cuisine. Their Tikka Chicken is soooo good but if you want something special you gotta try the Korma. Their biryani is really good. I dont think you could be disappointed with any choice here. Also really affordable.
Food very tasty, had a wrap, milkshake was not up to standard. Was remade, very good.
