Based on the glowing reviews, I had high expectations for this spot, but overall, it felt quite overhyped—especially given the high price point.
We ordered the chicken malai boti and the goat biryani for takeout. The chicken malai boti was unfortunately very dry and lacked the rich, creamy texture you expect from the dish. The biryani had tender goat meat, but the rice itself lacked flavor and was overwhelmingly greasy with a heavy amount of oil.
To top it off, I ended up getting sick after eating the biryani, which made the experience really disappointing. Unfortunately, I won’t be returning or recommending this place based on our visit.
If you are looking for authentic, flavor-packed dishes, Kabab House delivers on every front. The food here is outstanding, but the real standouts are the kababs and the biryani—both are truly to die for.
The kababs were grilled to perfection, incredibly tender, juicy, and packed with aromatic spices without being greasy. You can taste the quality and the right amount of char in every bite. Then came the biryani, which was next level: fragrant, fluffy long-grain rice, rich and deep layering of spices, and meat so tender it pulled apart effortlessly.
Portions are generous, the flavors hit all the right authentic notes, and the service was warm and welcoming. If you’re deciding what to order, do not skip the kababs and biryani combo. Will definitely be coming back soon!

We ordered lamb keema and chicken nihari and the quantity was 40% less from what we usually used to get in the past. The flavor of chicken nihari was also pretty bland if was mostly oil and just 2 pieces of

I have been coming here for years, but honestly, the quality has really gone down over the last few months.
The bigger problem for me, though, has been the lady at the front desk. She is extremely rude and always seems angry, as if she is doing us a favor by serving food. She has scolded my kid a few times, and I really did not appreciate that. She has no right to speak to my child that way.
I thought about complaining about her, but I didn’t because the uncle who owns the place is a genuinely sweet and nice person, and I’ve always had good experiences with him.
What’s interesting is that some of the recent reviews are saying the same thing about the lady at the front desk, so clearly I’m not the only one who has had this experience.
Unfortunately, I’m done coming here. I won’t be back unless something changes with the way customers are treated.

This place is to die for..it is literally THE best place bar none for Pakistani food in Seattle IMO.
The Lahori fried fish is perfection. On the first bite of that thing you will feel like you’ve died and gone to heaven. It is that good.
THE best chicken biryani we have had in Seattle. Tastes like back home!
Everything else is excellent as well!
