About Des N Pardes Restaurant Bradford
Desi Lahori breakfast anchors the day at Des N Pardes Restaurant Bradford, a halal restaurant on Wilton St, where halwa puri arrives alongside channa, paratha omelette and desi chai. Nihari sits on the menu too, though it can finish by late morning. Beyond breakfast, the kitchen turns to curries and grilled meats, with lamb masala and lamb butt karahi among the regular orders and a mixed grill bringing together chicken tikka, seekh kebabs, fish and lamb chops. Naan, including a garlic coriander version, is ordered to go with the curries, and a complimentary salad comes with meals. Suji halwa rounds out the sweet side of a menu running to 71 dishes. The restaurant is cash only, so card payments are not accepted, and it opens daily. Paid parking sits just across from the door.

Customer Review Summary
The desi breakfast is what draws the most enthusiasm, with the halwa puri singled out repeatedly for puri described as soft, light and flaky rather than oily, and one diner saying the halwa tasted like their grandmother's. The channa and the desi chai draw similar warmth, one reviewer saying the tea recalled gatherings back home. Close behind, the lamb dishes: two reviewers praise the lamb masala for tender meat and a good sauce, both noting the complimentary fresh salad and quick, piping hot service, and another finished off the lamb butt karahi. The mixed grill also comes up, with the fish, seekh kebabs and lamb chops named. Staff and owners are described as friendly, caring and courteous. Two reviewers flag cash only as a drawback, one wishing cards were accepted, and that same visit found the nihari sold out by late morning. One diner was disappointed, calling the butt karahi not great and preferring another local restaurant.

“Really disappointed with this place and regret wasting my time and money visiting. I went based on the many positive reviews and found star of the show the aptly named butt karai not great. Personally feel My Peshawar is a much better …”

“Amazing nihari. Very good seekh kebab Naan was amazing Suji halwa was good as well. Overall nice place. Real taste. Staff is great as well. Parking available just across the restaurant at £0.7/hour as difficult to find parking otherwise. Good experience and will try again.”

“A spontaneous desi breakfast but how exquisite! Took my mum for a desi breakfast and it was magnificent. Food was clean, fresh and served in a great time. Loved the comprehensive but key options for the desi breakfast. We got the murgh channa, channa halwa puri, paratha omelette and desi tea. Every single item was made with care and attention and flavours absolutely phenomenal 👏. The owners were so caring and respectful my mum felt at ease. But the food, wow! Deep and flavoursome. The puri was still soft and light, not oily at all. The channa...I couldn't stop eating. When I tasted the halwa, I said to mum it tastes like my grandma's!! Its a great family environment, great food, great service. Cash only FYI, but that's minor.”

“I ordered lamb masala and garlic coriander nann. The food was amazing. The lamb was tender and the sauce was delicious. The portion was good too. Free salad was offered. I did not have to wait long for the dish to be served. The lamb masala met all my expection of a good curry. The lady was friendly and helpful. Will visit again and order the same dish. High recommend. 5 out of 5.”
