Khyber

We were back to Khyber after quite a number of years. After hearing mixed reviews regarding the food, we were quite unsure on what to expect, however, with high hopes, we still decided to visit. Started off with their chicken tikka and the masala roomali roti. Didn’t disappoint. The chicken tikka was soft and very well seasoned. It was one of the very few I have had that doesn’t require the squeeze of lime to accentuate the taste. Paired with the roomali it was a started to get us started. Moving on we had the butter naan along with the chicken tikka masala. Another stellar combo. Hot, fluffy naans with perfectly spiced chicken tikka masala with that perfectly caramelised onion flavour, something you should definitely order. Next we moved to the chicken biryani. It’s a light biryani. Not too oily not too heavily reliant on array of spices. Simple yet tasty. Perfect lunch is what I would say. Despite the reviews we managed to enjoy the food to our hearts content

Average taste, great hospitality, interesting ambience. Located at a prime spot, Khyber gives you the impression that it’s a classic where nothing can go wrong with the food. While it does not do anything wrong with the food, it also does not do anything marvellously well with it. The chicken kathi roll and the paneer tikka were so mildly marinated, one could barely get a sense of the spices used in the dishes. Even the cheese garlic naan was an average nibble. The staff is warm and courteous.

Great restaurant. Beautifully designed and good service. The menu is a great Northern Indian journey. Quite sophisticated and not only your Indian classics. Good mix of Indian / Mogul cuisine. I had a chicken curry cooked to perfection as well as a great mutton masala kebab. Only thing: the waiter asked for tip a bit too pushy. I was happy with the service and would have given a generous tip anyway. But that was annoying.

We found Khyber through reviews, and it truly lived up to the hype. North Indian food never disappoints, and this place is a gem. The restaurant has a beautiful cave-like setting with warm vibes, and the servers were very polite. We loved the chicken biryani – flavorful and aromatic – and the butter chicken was so creamy with perfectly tender chicken. Portions are decent and satisfying. Overall, if you’re looking for vibrant North Indian cuisine with great atmosphere, this is the place to go!

I tried a garlic Naan for the first time in Khyber back in 2015. I visited it for the second time in 2025 and I was as mesmerized as I was 10 years. But this time what stood out was the afghani chicken kebab. It was creamy, tender and so so flavourful. Would definitely recommend for a delightfully family Indian meal!

The restaurant has a nice ambiance and the food was okay in taste. However, the service was quite slow and the food was not served hot, which affected the overall experience. With faster service and better attention to food quality, this place could be much better. Hoping to see improvements on my next visi

Supposedly an iconic restaurant but now seems to have lost its sheen , complacent over giving A1 service to some top notch celebrities it has now become extremely taken for granted by the management that whatever they serve has to be palatable and good for its customers which is now perhaps a disaster we were served stale food with no taste , the mutton RA Ra was a sheer waste of money totally tasteless and Naan was burnt hard like rubber , the waiters were reminding us to eat faster as the restaurant closing time for lunch was coming to an end in total we just hated the experience. Think twice before visiting

The fish was excellent, the naan bread was crispy, and the waiter was very attentive. The atmosphere was lovely and felt peaceful and calm.
