Dawat Restaurant Norbury

I bought my Greek friends here for dinner, they wanted ‘authentic Pakistani food’ somewhere when I eat regularly with my parents…so then you know it’s good, being Asian myself. The Kahrai was amazing and the chicken biriyani, you must try the kheer it is chefs kiss, there are so many great dishes to choose from here…also the mango lassi. Also the music wasn’t too loud so you could have a conversation and hear each other. Mariam attended to our every need, brilliant service from her.

Fantastic food and wonderful service! The food at Dawat in Norbury is always amazing full of flavour and freshly prepared. Every time we visit, we’re impressed by the quality and taste. A special mention goes to the waitress Maryam she’s always incredibly kind, polite, and helpful to me and my mum. She gives great recommendations and always makes us feel welcome. We truly enjoy coming here as a family and always leave happy and satisfied. Highly recommended

I'm a regular customer. I bought 80 pounds worth of food. Me and my whole fam got so ill from it. For my dad ambulance had to be called. Had to go toilet non stop. We called n spoke to dawat. Got told they wil do a replacment food. Went couple weeks later. The guy was that served was nice but it was not 80 pounds value. We got given half kg of saag meat. Half of karahi. Half kg kheer (which seemed old) but when we got home and saw the food it was normal some containers. No way close to Half kg. Karahi tasted a bit off. Saag was ok. But unfortunately this place will now be avoided. As a regular customer yes they dealt with it but they knew we was traveling so fod wise we got lied abiut the quality and quantity.

Excellent! The lamb shish kebabs or whatever they were called, were absolutely amazing. So tasty and flavoursome. The curry we had was great too. Reasonably priced too. We ate well!

We had a wonderful experience at Dawat in Norbury today. From the moment we arrived, the warmth and care shown by Maryam made the visit truly special — her genuine hospitality and welcoming smile instantly made us feel at home. The food was outstanding. The chicken dish was perfectly cooked, full of flavour, and beautifully spiced. The naan was soft, fresh, and the ideal companion to the meal. To finish, the cookie and tea were the perfect ending — comforting, simple, and absolutely delightful. It’s not just the food that makes Dawat special, it’s the people behind it. Maryam’s kindness and attention to detail turned a great meal into a truly memorable experience. Highly recommended — we’ll definitely be back again! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
