Our Story

Eleven years of fire & saffron

Born in a tiny corner of Gulberg in 2014, Shahi Dastarkhwan was a love letter to our nani's kitchen. Today, we serve over a thousand guests a day — but every kebab is still hand-rolled, every karahi is still fired over real coals, and every spice is still pounded the morning of.

  • Heritage recipes

    Sourced from across the four provinces — Lahore, Peshawar, Karachi, Quetta.

  • Real charcoal, always

    No gas grills. Just slow embers and patient hands.

  • Award-winning kitchen

    Voted Lahore's best Pakistani restaurant 3 years running.
