GoogleThe restaurant was absolutely buzzing when we arrived. It was packed, but we were seated after about a 10-minute wait, which was reasonable given how busy it was. We ordered the mixed platter, a chicken karahi, and some extra naan and roti to share. The food was incredible! The lamb and chicken tikka were perfectly cooked, tender, and full of flavour, while the kofte kebabs were delicious and juicy. The rice was seasoned really well, and there was easily enough food for five people. Everything served was truly a 10/10 with generous portions, great taste, and excellent quality throughout. Would definitely recommend Watan for anyone looking for authentic, well-cooked dishes and a lively dining experience.
