About Lal Qila Restaurant

On Chorley Old Rd in Bolton, Lal Qila Restaurant is an Asian restaurant built around the tawa sharing platter, which comes in sizes for two or three people and puts a bit of everything on one plate. Karahi dishes are made with chicken or lamb, and fresh tandoori naan comes alongside for sharing at the table. When the meal ends, the team brings a complimentary kava, mint tea or green tea, so the platter and the hot drink frame the visit for a small group. The dining room is set up with decorations for family gatherings and birthday celebrations.

Customer Review Summary

The tawa meal for two or three is the dish diners return to most, described as having a bit of everything, with the lamb chop, seekh kebabs and chicken tikka called juicy, tender and succulent. Close behind are the chicken and lamb karahi, flavorful biryani with tender lamb, fresh naan and a mix grill with naan and lassi, which one reviewer polished off in five minutes. Fish pakora comes up as a side, and one reviewer recommends the lassi in hot weather. Food is repeatedly described as fresh and served hot, and one diner who asked for the tawa spicy got the desi style heat they wanted. Service is called friendly, efficient and attentive but not too much, and one family celebrating a child's birthday found staff accommodating with kids and decorations, with the room set up as promised. The only drawback raised is a short wait on a busy evening, while another visit found the room a bit empty. Several meals end with a complimentary hot drink, whether mint tea, green tea or a kava from the management.
