The restaurant at the Shaheen Hotel is one of Gilgit's more established dining options. The karahi — meat slow-cooked in a wok with tomatoes, ginger, and spices — is the dish to order, and it arrives in the steel wok it was cooked in. The menu covers Pakistani standards reliably: biryani, kebabs, lentils. The setting is plain and the service efficient. Recommended for the karahi alone.
