Shahid Nihari & Biryani House

Shahid Nihari & Biryani House is a budget-friendly desi food restaurant in Lahore. In short, desi food is the everyday cooking of the subcontinent — slow-cooked curries, tawa-fried meats, freshly baked roti, charcoal-grilled tikka and seekh kabab, and fragrant rice dishes. The menu currently lists 29 items, with prices ranging from Rs.30 to Rs.700 (taxes and service may apply).

Pakistani desi cuisine is built on long, patient cooking with whole spices, charcoal smoke, ghee, and the open-flame BBQ tradition — eaten family-style with hot naan straight off the tandoor. Shahid Nihari & Biryani House fits within this tradition, and its menu reflects that influence — items like Chicken Haleem appear among the most-listed dishes.

What to order: based on the published menu, the most representative dishes are Mineral Water (Rs.90), Chicken Haleem (Rs.250), Curry Pakora (Rs.300), and White Chana (Rs.250). Prices on this page are dine-in unless otherwise noted; takeaway and delivery may carry a small surcharge.

Practical notes: The restaurant is located at Flats, F8G5+JMX, Abul Hassan Isfahani Rd, Model Town Extension Block N Central Flats Model Town, Lahore, Pakistan. You can call ahead on 0303 5812335 for reservations or large orders.
