A Taste of Lahore, in Fgura & St Julian’s
Lahori Dhaba is Malta’s home of authentic Pakistani cooking — an Indian & Pakistani restaurant serving the dishes Lahore is famous for: biryanis layered with spice, slow-cooked curries, seekh kebabs off the grill and tandoori favourites with fresh naan. Reviewers call it some of the most mouthwatering Pakistani food on the island.
Lahore is Pakistan’s food capital, and its cooking is generous and spice-forward: rice layered and steamed with meat and whole spices, karahi dishes tossed in tomato and green chilli, kebabs grilled over open flame. A dhaba is a roadside eatery where the food is honest, plentiful and full of flavour — and that is exactly the spirit this kitchen brings to Malta.
With branches in Fgura in the south and St Julian’s on the entertainment coast, Lahori Dhaba is an easy stop for a family dinner, a takeaway on the way home, or a late-night biryani after an evening out.
The Menu
What to Try at Lahori Dhaba
The dishes Lahori Dhaba is known for — named by HalalMalta and by the restaurant’s own reviewers. See the full menu and current prices on the ordering page.
Lamb Biryani
The dish reviewers name first — fragrant, spice-layered biryani with tender lamb, the taste of Punjab in Malta.
Seekh Kebabs
Succulent kebabs, seasoned the Lahori way and grilled until smoky at the edges — a house strength.
Tandoori Favourites
From the clay oven: tandoori-grilled favourites served sizzling, with fresh naan baked to order.
Gol Gappa
The street-snack opener: crisp puris filled and flooded with spiced water — mouthwatering, as regulars put it.
Daal Chawal
The comforting classic: gently spiced lentils served over rice — the taste of a Lahori home kitchen.
Lahori Korma
One of the kitchen’s popular items: a rich, slow-cooked korma made for tearing naan and scooping deep.

Dish Spotlight
Lamb Biryani
