    Beautiful restaurant with amazing food and great customer service. We ordered lamb chops with chips, chicken tikka with rice, adana kebab with naan, 3x j2o, 1x mocktail and a margherita pizza. Everything tasted lovely and fresh. The chicken and rice were especially nice and very flavourful and everything was cooked perfectly. Bathroom was clean and tidy and super pleased they had a water jug (lota/badna) Waitresses who served us were very friendly and gave good recommendations. Special shoutout to Nadir and Shavger behind the tills who were approachable and welcoming. We had a lovely experience and will definitely be back again soon 😊 Hoping to try their mint tea and kanafa next time as we had no space!

    Great food as always. Place is kept very clean and staff are super helpful. Kobeda is my usual choice however this time I went for the lamb shank as well which was 10/10.

    Been here a few times to eat now, the food is amazing everything so full of flavour and taste. The seating area is good, may feel cramped at busy times but the service is still on point and the food is always above standards. Very good decent size portions and the prices are decent also. Mix kebabs are my favourite and the drinks, good selection available and worth the money. Family platter is also very good to have here, nicely presented and plenty of flavour. Definitely recommend eating in here, they do deliveries but best to go in and eat fresh off the grill. Excellent place amazing food, friendly staff.

    Great food, worth a visit! Elaf Blackburn offers very tasty and well-prepared dishes that really stand out. The flavors are authentic, the ingredients fresh, and the presentation appealing. Every time I visit, the food does not disappoint. The only downside is that it is a bit on the pricier side, but considering the quality and taste, it’s definitely worth it for a good meal. The restaurant is clean, welcoming, and the staff are friendly and attentive, which makes the dining experience even more enjoyable. Overall, I highly recommend Elaf Blackburn for anyone looking for delicious food in a pleasant atmosphere.
