Went last week, had been recommended to go by quite a few friends. Ordered haleem and my friends had some kebabs all the food was excellent. Waiters could have been mire enthusiastiv but we were seated quickly. Bit spicy but the manager recommended the mango which really was some of the best lassi i've ever had. Only cost about £8 per person not bad at all. Atmosphere wasnt great but food made up for it.

Very nice kababs (especially with the generous helping of mint chutney and sliced onion rings) - authentic desi dhaba from north india. They could increase the size of the portions though. Also very nice naans.

This place is fantastic for its kebabs and fresh naan. Its pretty basic inside but you go here for the food not the suroundings. Basically its what we in India call a Dhaba - i.e. somewhere you go to order one or two specialities. The sikh kebabs are excellent. The Nihari ranges from briliant to so so - usually it has a great texture but the last time I ordered it had been made into a smooth paste and wasnt great. Hope thats a temporary aberration.
They also have the usual curry favourties here for non-Asian diners but avoid them - thats not what this place is about. you dont go here for Chicken Tikka masala or vegetable dishes. Its all about the kebabs and Nihari.
Best thing to order is sikh kebab and naan. Superb and better than the famous Lahore Kebab House.
Sort out your Nihari guys and you'll get a 10.

We went there, highly recommended by a few friends but was absolutely surprised and disappointed in the food as well as the service.

Service was quite poor and the management were not very helpful. We ordered the Nihari dish, which turned up with two small pieces of meat (for £8!). When we complained, we were fobbed off by the manager, who told us to order another dish if we needed more food...he then proceeded to sit back at his table and chat loudly with the rest of his waiters. Useless...
The food was ok. Nothing special. A bit over-zealous on the spices - left feeling quite bloated even though we didn't eat all that much. Quite pricey too - looking at min. £15 a head for a basic meal.

Three of us went on a Thursday night arriving at 10pm .we were told it was last orders and the place was full,within five minutes we had a table - ordered grilled kebabs and a choice of Meat and Veg dishes,all arrived at the same time but who cares,food was all tasty and piping hot ,the kebabs were very tasty indeed with a hint of lighter spices like cinnamon and cloves,the curries were a wee bit oily but its the oil that is infused with the taste,just don't spill it on your clothes!They are also on the hot side of medium so if you don't like it hot then have a word when you order.Rice was OK nothing special but the Naan breads were great.
In all it was £35 for a blow out inc service and doggy bags to take home.
Service may be brusque but its not a place to linger over a glass of wine.....
Great Pakistani food in central London.

I've been visiting Raavi Kebab for a long time now I can always count on excellent food . The grilled food was excellent and the prices were very affordable. I definately recommend visiting, the chiken tikkas and kebabs were excellent. The decor and staff were not great but for the price your paying they are pretty good. The traditional indian food is perfect the best outside of Asia.

visited yesterday with 2 colleagues. kebas were ok but the rest of the food was dire, avoid this place, the specials which was chikken masala was watered down, no consistency, nihari was made yesterday .. why because it arrived within 5 minutes of ordering it, there was a thick skin formed on the sauce of it. told the owner the food was poor but he was in denial, no customer service, the place is rundown.
