We had our brunch today with family at **Karahi Hut – pickering branch**, and it was an amazing experience! The **paratha, chana, aloo ka salan, and puri Nihari has room for improvement , were all incredibly delicious — honestly better than many restaurants we've tried in the Durham region. This was definitely one of my best brunch experiences. The restaurant is **compact but tidy and clean**, and the **staff is polite and humble**. I would confidently give it a **4-star rating** and will definitely be coming back with friends and family. Highly recommended!

Best halwa puri in our Pickering ********** updated April 13 2024 ********** We tried halwa puri again as usual. This is one of the best halwa puri in our GTA, no-brainer. However, we ordered 2 Lassi as well with the halwa puri. One meethi and one namkeen. The namkeen was horrible as it was highly concentrated with salt. There were spoons of namak in it and I'm sure nobody hadn't tasted beforehand. We drained it out as we were unable to chug it down. ********** updated April 13 2024 ********** Today I ordered halwa puri breakfast for my friends and family, and I must say it was a phenomenal experience. The taste and quality were great, and we were completely satisfied. The ambiance inside was exotic, and I am convinced to immerse myself in dining there next time. The customer service was great, and everyone was very kind and helpful. In fact, when I was short of one box of either Chana or Aalu Tarkari, a kind woman came out running to make sure I had all of my orders. Caring makes a huge difference. It's not just the good taste of the food; sometimes, it's the little things that pull people in to experience it again. Overall, I'm impressed and I'm coming back again to dine in.

They have amazing tasty food and the perfect atmosphere I went to celebrate a birthday but could not be more pleased with everything this restaurant has to offer. I’d highly recommend and can’t wait to visit again!

Small but very clean place with nice atmosphere. Food is great too. Those pooris are to die for, so big yet so light, that you just cant settle for one. Naans are soft and loaded with sesame seeds. Biryani is also made right, where chicken and rice are cooked together like actual authentic way. Its full of flavours. Overall really nice place!
