Dawat Restaurant & Take Away

We’ve heard there’s an ongoing rivalry between Tooting locals who think Lahore Karahi is the best Pakistani restaurant in the area, and ones who back Dawat all the way. We’re undecided which takes the number one spot, but once you try the Dawat special mixed grill, you'll understood why there are family divides over this place. It’s a casual, always buzzing, neighbourhood spot with groups tucking into a chicken jalfrezi, and friends fighting over the last tandoori king prawn whether it’s the weekend or a quiet Tuesday night. Ask for a round table if you’re in a small group and expect anything but a boring meal.
