  “The service was fairly decent. The seating area is good and can accommodate for a large group if a reservation is made. The service for the food took longer than anticipated. The cutlery was not the cleanest. There is a good selection of food to choose from. Everything was mediocre however the pilau and chapli kebab were exceptional. Overall it is a safe option for food and service that is decent but not exactly special or outstanding.”

  “I had a great experience at this restaurant. The **karahi was really delicious**, and the **Kabuli pulao was 10/10 — very authentic Peshawari taste**. The **lamb chops were absolutely outclass**, cooked perfectly and full of flavour. The staff were very calm, friendly, and welcoming. The ambience was also really nice, making the whole dining experience enjoyable. They even offered a **free dessert**, which was a lovely touch. Definitely a place I would recommend and visit again.”

  “Went here for the first time after seeing a plethora of positive reviews, but the experience was underwelming. We ordered a mixed grill and a karahi and ended up waiting around an hour for our food, despite the restaurant only being about half full. What made it more frustrating was that a group who arrived around 15 minutes after us were served their food before we were. I appreciate that different dishes can take different amounts of time, but it just didn’t seem to add up and left us feeling overlooked. When the food finally arrived, we weren’t even given basic cutlery such as spoons for the mint and chilli sauces, which was a bit disappointing. Some of the plates and glasses didn’t seem to be cleaned properly as they had small bits of residue or food on them. The mixed grill was very mediocre. The lamb chops were very fatty, had a lot of gristle, and there wasn’t much actual meat on them. The seekh kebab also contained large chunks of vegetables which affected the texture, the rest of the mix grill was fine. The karahi was average at best. The staff were polite but appeared to be under pressure. Overall, the combination of the slow service and the mediocre food quality meant the experience didn’t live up to the reviews I had read. Sadly, I wouldn’t return and would look elsewhere next time.”

  “Charsi Dera on Coventry Road is an absolute gem 🔥 The food was honestly next level – full of flavour, perfectly cooked, and everything tasted fresh. The rice especially stood out… easily some of the best I’ve had. The drinks were spot on too and complemented the meal perfectly. We ordered the Charsi platter with naan and rice, and it was more than enough for 4 adults – great portions and amazing value for money. If you’re thinking of going, just go. Proper food, proper taste. Definitely coming back 👌 Both my wife's loved it. AMAZING”

  “Charsi Dera is an absolute gem for anyone who loves authentic Afghan-Pakistani cuisine. The meat is tender, juicy, and perfectly seasoned, especially the chicken karahi and chapli kebab. The atmosphere is simple but warm, giving the place a truly traditional feel. Portions are generous and great value for money. A must-visit spot for real, hearty desi food lovers.”

  “We had an absolutely amazing dining experience at Charsi Dera! The food was full of authentic flavours, beautifully presented, and cooked to perfection. 🔥 Mix Grill & Chapli Kebab: Perfectly seasoned, juicy, and grilled just right — every bite was bursting with that smoky, traditional taste. The lamb chops were tender, and the kebabs had that lovely balance of spice and freshness. 🍗 Karahi Chicken & Karahi Gosht: Rich, aromatic, and cooked in true desi style — the karahi was a highlight! The meat was tender and the gravy had that perfect blend of spice and freshness with green chillies, coriander, and ginger. 🍛 Biryani: Fragrant, flavourful, and full of masala — each grain of rice carried that homely warmth. The addition of potatoes was a lovely touch! 🍚 Qabli Pilao: Beautifully cooked basmati rice topped with carrots and raisins — mildly sweet and savoury at the same time, just as a perfect Kabuli pulao should be. It paired wonderfully with the karahi. 🥛 Lassi: Thick, creamy, and refreshing — the perfect way to balance the rich flavours of the meal. Overall, Charsi Dera delivers a true taste of authentic Pakistani cuisine — hearty, flavour-packed, and served with warmth. A great spot for family gatherings or anyone craving proper desi food with genuine flavour. Highly recommended! 🌟🌿”
