The seekh kebabs are easily the highlight here. They are rich, smoky, and spiced with real balance and depth, probably the closest I have found to the flavours of Pakistan. The restaurant is Afghan, but the food feels like what Afghanis in Pakistan might make, familiar yet distinct, full of layered spice rather than just heat mild but tasty. If there is one criticism, it is that the seekh kebabs could be a bit longer. They taste great, but the portion size feels stingy. In Pakistan, kebabs tend to be more generous, so these come off a little mean in comparison.nnThe nihari was good, with tender meat and a creamy, well-spiced curry that had a nice depth of flavour. It was my first time trying nihari, so I cannot compare it, but it held its own. The biryani, on the other hand, was forgettable. I honestly cannot remember it, which says enough.nnThe salad is where things really go wrong. It is overcomplicated with a mild chutney-style dressing and unnecessary olives when all people want is something simple, cucumber, lettuce, onion, and tomato. I have asked for it plain multiple times, but they never listen. Even with plenty of staff around, they are slow and inattentive, and ignoring such requests gets frustrating.nnThe place itself has a good vibe and friendly people, but it needs sharper service and a bit more care in the details. The food has heart, especially the kebabs, but the experience would be far better if the kitchen and staff showed the same consistency.
The food was very good, with generous portions, and the restaurant was lively and busy. If you plan to dine here, it’s best to book a table in advance, otherwise be prepared for a waiting time. We waited around 20–25 minutes. The queue system could also be improved, as we noticed some guests arriving later were seated before us.nnOne suggestion for the management: Mash Allah, you have many customers daily, which is wonderful to see. However, it would be great to invest a little in maintaining clean washrooms. Having a dedicated person to clean them regularly would make a big difference, as the current condition was disappointing. Overall, a nice experience with excellent food, but room for improvement in facilities.
This restaurant used to be called TKC. Many celebrities visited it such as Imran Khan, Umar Sharif and all the cricketers food used to go from here. It's called Watan now as we knew one of the older gentleman who owned it not very well but he used to recognise us. He passed away a few years ago unfortunately hence new ownership. The whole decor has changed now but we miss the old TKC. Search it on Google and you should be able to find the old photos. Some nostalgic value for us older folk when we arrive in places like this....nWe had chicken and lamb karahi with lamb dum biryiani with Nans including chilli. The salad was complimentary and was quite fresh. The food is outstanding and if you follow my reviews, I don't say that for many establishments. I'd say try it as that's the proof. I recommend Watan. Pay a visit.
We visited Watan as a large group of over 50 people and were very impressed with the experience. The team kindly provided us with the entire downstairs seating area, which made it comfortable and private for everyone. The staff were extremely friendly, attentive, and accommodating throughout our visit. The ambience was warm and welcoming, creating a great atmosphere for our gathering. The food was delicious, with excellent presentation that showed real attention to detail. Overall, a fantastic experience – highly recommended!
Watan restaurant in Southall - Been to it 3 times now . Food is amazing the mixed grill platter, the lamb curry , the naans but what I’ve noticed is when they are super busy like on a Saturday after 5pm their service is not as good. They initially cleaned the table before we sat down but the food and napkins under the table was not very welcoming.nIt took them forever to take our order, then forever to get the order to us and when the mixed grill came without the chicken wings they said they would bring some and they never did!nnThe ambience of the restaurant very presentable but you can feel the greasiness on tables and the floor when walking…nThe toilets are down some uneven stick stairs clean but could be better. For the volume of customers mainly families they could be cleaned regularly.
