Chargha House

Chargha House is a little hole in the wall restaurant in a strip mall, but with enough space to comfortably dine in. We had their most famous dish, the Chargha Chicken, and it was AMAZING. I\\\'ve never had anything quite like it at any Pakistani or Indian restaurant. It\\\'s moist and perfectly spiced, with just the right amount of heat. Way better than any tandoori chicken I\\\'ve ever had. The place is also proudly and openly halal. I would definitely come back, and highly recommend.

Everything was ok except the food, it was tasteless and really really bad in taste. I ordered the chicken Charga and aloo goobi and both things were terrible in taste.

Charga (stands for BBQ or Roast in English) House, is an authentic Pakistani restaurant. Not many (not even in Pakistan) would have Saag (not palak or spinach - yes Mustard) on their menu. The portions are good and enough for 2. Their Kheer (rice pudding) is genuine. Nehari is awesome and so are their naan! Garlic naan and Roti are genuinely delicious with authentic Pakistani taste.Chapli kabab isn't to miss. And yes the owner and the guy who served us were unbelievably friendly. We got complementary deserts too (courtesy our cute daughters). :-)

If you’re in the LA area, you have to try Churga House. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and you can really feel that it’s family-run with great people behind it. The flavors are beyond amazing I ordered the chicken karahi and it was absolutely out of this world. Everything is 100% halal. Highly recommend! 9.7/10 🙌🙌

I don't understand how anyone cannot give this Pakistani restaurant 5 stars. The food is authentic, home-made, and reasonably priced for large portions. Everything I've tried has been absolutely delicious. The ownership is SO NICE and inviting. I love that we have a family restaurant that has brought it's recipes to the community.

Has to be the best Pakistani food in LA - we ordered the Karahi and Karri and they followed all instructions. Everything was very flavorful and fresh - glad to have an authentic Pakistani restaurant here as people think Indian and Pakistani cuisine are the same - they are not.

Chargha was very good but not great, beef karahi same. But considering other options, this place is decent for true pakistani food. It's just short of five stars, though. Kheer was 5 star.

Ever heard of a Biryani Scam? I hadn’t either until I got my Biryani delivered from this place; as you can see in the picture, it’s just white rice topped with chicken curry, with a little white rice on top again, they didn’t even bother to mix it together. What a disgrace and dishonesty to call this a Biryani. I called the restaurant in disbelief as I thought maybe they gave me the wrong order. The guy tried explaining (without listening to me and speaking over me) how this is what people like to eat and the actual Biryani is only made at weekends. Never experienced such a scam anywhere in the US or the world. The dish is absolutely tasteless, NOT a biryani and I feel very bad throwing away food. The most disappointing part is the deceit though. Do not support this business!

I Do Not recommend this!! We ordered Maghaz Nihari and Chicken Seekh Kabob, but they served us the regular Nihari and ground chicken kabob instead. They never even bothered to ask us before switching our order. Nihari was days old and smelled bad. ??? The manager was rude and disrespectful. If you want to eat clean, fresh, and healthy, and get treated well; this is not the place.

Highly recommend the chargha and the chicken seekh kebabs! We’re from Karachi and we felt it was very authentic! The spice level was on point as well
