★★★★☆ Good as it goes. As often as restaurants come and go in Southall, there is a reason Gifto's has staying power. Posted on August 9, 2017

★★★★★ great food and service have been many times with family and always enjoyed food. sometimes busy but a good place to eat. Posted on September 30, 2012

★★★☆☆ I don't understand why this place gets such good reviews. The food is not especially good. Portions are quite small for the price they charge. Service is good though. Large restaurant so adequate seating usually very busy. Mostly style over substance. Posted on September 9, 2012

★★★★★ I don't kno y this doesn't have more stars, I've eaten here twice and both occasions had great customer service. Really good food, portions were perfect. But a teeny bit pricey. Posted on May 18, 2012

★★★★★ Lovely decor. Staff are pleasant. Comfortable welcoming. Male/female/disabled facilities. Excellent for big families, small groups or couples. My husband brought me to this restaurant as this is where him and his family eat out in Southall. It is absolutely mouth watering food. Thumbs up to the chefs. I would advise the only things I can see that they lack in, are the hot lemon wipes you get with the bill at the end. Posted on November 8, 2011

★★★★★ excellent food but crappy service ,small portions,tried lamb and it was amazing Posted on September 12, 2011

★★★★★ The best place to eat in Southall! Lamb chops and paapri chaat for starters... superb! And make sure you try the chicken bhuna, it is truly amazing. Always busy, but you know why... cos the food is good. Posted on July 11, 2011

★★★★★ I have to admit, Gifto's is byfar my favorite Indo-Pak restaurant in all of London! I travel all the way from USA with my mouth watering for Gifto's lambchops (with extra onions). Every time I visit my fiance, he takes me straight to Gifto's from the airport. We order our usual: lambchops (with extra onions. So good!), tarka dhal and naan. Sometimes we get basmati rice as well. The food is delicious and very filling. The restaurant is beautiful and the staff has always been friendly to us! I highly recommend this place!

★☆☆☆☆ Have been there twice, food is nothing special, ordered mix grill, if only has 2 kebabs in there! Go across the street to spice village and you get twice as many kebabs and they test better. Posted on January 14, 2011

★☆☆☆☆ Food is good, customer service is lame. Staff need to learn that smiling is sadaqah. Question for 'Gifto123' allrgedly the owner, you said in ur review u only sell hmc meat yet ur not on their list of approved restaurants?! Please do not lie to unsuspecting Muslims. If ur going to save a few pence n buy stunned poultry then just admit ur chicken is stunned n makrooh. Then people can decide themselves if they want to eat there. Posted on October 30, 2010

★★☆☆☆ food good service appalling never returned but i have been to chaudharys tkc accross the road there very good but this place i say steer clear Posted on June 17, 2010

★☆☆☆☆ I heard so much hype about this place but I was really disappointed. The staff were rude and you could not get their attention. I cant even remember if the food was good because I was so annoyed by the service. Never again. Posted on June 17, 2010

★★★☆☆ the food was ok, but i found trying to get the staffs attention some what difficult, they didnt seem to care much!! Posted on June 16, 2010

★★★★☆ Food was nice here, took my fiance there, because it was a week day there wernt too many people and service was nice and quick. Posted on November 24, 2009

NR Asalamalikum Firstly, i have to congratulate Zabiha on an excellent service they are providing to the muslim community and i have used zabiha a number of times while i have been on holiday. I am the owner of Gifto's Lahore Karahi in Southall. We do run an excellent establishment serving very high quality food. We are muslim and we only sell 100% HMC and HFA meat products. Allah swt will ask me on the day of judgement whether i served haram meat to my customers and i will be able to say that i did not with a clean heart. At the end of the day we are going to die and be questioned by Allah swt. Posted on October 8, 2008

★★☆☆☆ The food was under cooked in my visit to Gifto's. I believe, as the restaurant is very busy the staff rush to serve your food on the table, which results in the food being under cooked. Posted on December 17, 2006

★★★★☆ Good food, the portions aren't large though, but you do leave full. Posted on March 2, 2006

★★★★★ This is a Texas size restaurant in a country where distances and spaces are generally small. The restaurant is as big as a football field. It is a short distance outside the reach of the London Underground, hence to get there from London one needs to take British Railway or go by road. Although non access via London Underground is a slight inconvenience do not let that hold you back from going to this restaurant. In order to give you an idea of how good the food is at this establishment and how popular this restaurant is, allow me to state that there is a line waiting for tables at this huge place even when other restaurants around it do not even have flies buzzing in it. The owner's of the restaurant around Gifto's look at this place with lustful eyes. Needless to say it did not acquire this reputation for no reason. The food here is amazing. The variety is just fantastic. I wish Gifto's opens a branch in Edison (New Jersey, USA). Posted on February 18, 2006
