Lahore Tikka House

Chicken Tikka

Bone-in chicken marinated in yogurt and spices, charred in the tandoor until the skin blisters and the interior stays juicy — the restaurant's defining dish

Seekh Kebab

Spiced minced lamb packed onto skewers and grilled over open flame, arriving charred on the outside with a tender, herb-flecked interior

Chicken Karahi

Stir-fried chicken cooked in a wok with tomatoes, green chilies, ginger, and whole spices — the sauce is thick, oily in the best way, and deeply savory

Lamb Karahi

The beef version of their karahi, slow enough that the meat yields easily, with a richer, more complex sauce than the chicken

Nihari

Slow-cooked beef or lamb shank stew with a silky, spiced broth thickened overnight — a Pakistani morning staple served here throughout the day

Haleem

A slow-cooked porridge of lentils and meat that's deeply spiced and garnished with crispy onions, ginger, and cilantro — earthy and comforting

Naan

Tandoor-baked flatbread with the characteristic char bubbles and soft chew — essential for scooping up karahi sauce

Biryani

Fragrant long-grain rice layered with spiced meat and slow-cooked together — a large, shareable portion best split between two

Mango Lassi

Thick, sweet yogurt drink blended with ripe mango — a necessary counterpoint to the heat of the BBQ dishes
