Crab soup is okayLobster is AwsumTiger Prawns deliciousPrawn Masala is good
Today i visited Cafe Sino.....well it doesnt look like cafe to me more like tea dhaba i would say with lots of flies sitting in my plate.....i would recommend people to order it at home...unless they change to a better gud looking restaurant. Good thing i notice that staff were friendly.....they were listening to my suggestion which was great.....and Yes lobster was fresh. Our food was over cooked and extremely spicy. The crab soup was basically hot water with a tonne of black pepper and a crab dropped into it. Terrible. Wudnt recommend it to anyone. lobster, crabs and muscles were grilled to a point that they had shrivelled up and gotten tough n chewy.
Small place in zamzama. The locality seems deserted at night as people apparently are going to big malls to avoid parking issues once faced at zamzama. We had one crab buffet deal, one seafood buffet deal and one lobster.Starting with lobster, it wasnt as big as some pictures show. Meat was stiff but i believe it was fresh.Crabs were small in size except for chilli crabs which were medium sized.Fish was also medium sized and tasted ok. Apparently they didnt apply masalas on it.Prawns were medium in size.Overall ok if you want a crab feast.
They had a deal on lobsters, 50% off, felt it was bait and switch, cause they showed a very small lobster and said it was 1200, while the normal sized one was 2500. Generally a meal for two at an upscale restaurant would cost you around 6,7thousand max . This meal costed about the same but did not fill us. The only thing that I liked was the shrimps
A very good clean and nice place for sea food.Everything is good here. A bit over priced but the quantity and quality justifies it to some extend.Overall very good experience here
Best Sea Food in karachi you can easily get in reasonable rates.They have an awesome variety such as crabs lobster squids etc. I ordered a 1 kg grilled lobster it was super delicious. If you are sea food lover I would highly recommend everyone to try itKeep Rocking.. Thumbs up !!!
If you are really a sea food lover so this is the place for but if you dont have any interest in sea foods this will going to be the worst place for you
Very bad first impression and experience. We had their buffet for Rs. 1,590. It includes Crab, Prawns, Fish, Calamari, Cuttlefish and Chapati. Everything was so much stale that their taste have changed. Crabs werent even washed properly. Fish and Calamari didnt have any taste. Prawns are bit better but in later servings, they got bad too. Looked like everything was fried in old and used oil. Maybe not going again.
Amazing experience!!!! We ordered garlic butter lobster prawns and prawn biryani ... they even offered us a complimentary garlic butter lobster.... amazing hospitality... worth going to this place
The food is good. I recommend grilled lobster. Mussels had a strong taste, but tasted fine. The prices, however, are quite high...but not for all food items. Overall experience was nice...service was excellent. Might visit againThe prices of platter dishes are really really high.
Taste good, but ambience impropiate.
Rs. 1000 for crab buffet is great value
Cafe SinoSeafood fraternity may find my long review useful, others may read on their own risk. :)Impressed with quantity of seafood as I did not expect this much i.e. 7 filled skewers of prawn, two decent sized fried fish, a steak, couple of mussels n crabs . Good combination, as it got everything for our group of three. They call this Pakistan Platter.Coming to taste side of the food. I m not spice lover therefore spices were kept low on my request. And the food tasted great. Prawns were yum - must be tried. Fish was perfectly fried as crispy crust n tender inside they kept spices in it very low.Verdict: this dhaba is serving beyond its physical stature. Other foodies in group who have visited Sino will agree that its one of must visit place of Karachi for Seafood!Expense : 3330 (platter 3000 n 3 Saffron Tea 330)P.S. Saffron n Spices Tea was also good which is priced at Rs. 110!
Loved the food , delicious !! Not too expensive either . Chef/host ayaz is an awesome person ,he guided me through the whole menu and was very helpful . He prepared delicious food and he made sure that food would be served right before we finished our first dish so it would be served hot . Excellent service, excellent food !
It was a great experience at Cafe Sino.Ordered a sea food platter. Lobster, clams, crabs, calamari, fish even the prawn biryani was amazing. Their staff is very polite and cooperative. All sea food items were fresh and cooked perfect. Highly recommended. Hats off to the Chef.
I tried their crab biryani and it was awesome rice was juicy crab as wellService 9/10Taste 9/10
Good food but poor service
A good place for sea food lovers. Sitting and food presentation is quite simple. Taste is good
Great cafe , good dishes spacialy prown biryani
Horrible taste.. stay away.. the spice they use overpowers everything
Best place to have crabs
Delicious, crispy fried fish fillets with mustard sauce and a bit of iceberg lettuce salad with mayonnaise for Rs. 199 (thats Rs.01 less than Rs. 200) onlyNo hand washing facilities for customers yet but theyre happy to get you a glass of clean water to wash up withRun out the back of Chai Pani, by the same management
Yummy excellent
Sea food is good but ambiance is average
Great sea food. loved the crab soup and prawn platter.
Over hyped. Not economical. Low quality taste in most dishes.
We had grilled crab, the prawn feast and mussels. All were very fresh and tasted excellent. The grilled crab especially was the highlight of the occasion.You cant beat this place for value for money. They have one of the most reasonable rates for sea food I have seen and never for such good quality food.The ambiance is pretty much standard but the place was clean and tidy and the waiters courteous and helpfulWe also tried crab soup and prawn shashlik, both tasted great.
Taste less sea food biryani. Soup was delivered without any sauces
Good place to have sea food!
An economical seafood restaurant in Karachi. They need to work on the ambiance. Shrimp Biryani was very spicy while Shrimp Masala was good. Lobster was just OK. While it was my first experience with Crabs, so cant compare. But Mainly we just played with Mud Crabs, there were hardly any meat in crabs.
Amazing Food.
The food was really great. The lobster and the crab were freshly cooked and the taste was really great and the staff was also really kind and attentive. ️
We are 8 people currently at this outlet. quite disappointed to know that this branch isnt accepting savyour coupons.order serving time is 40 mins. another disappointment.
Paradise for sea food lover..they have excellent chef and the best thing about them is every thing they serve is super fresh and the taste of sea food is all about freshness. Better reserve before going there thats because of their limited seating and for the availability of your desired item like if you want to eat lobsters or crab buffet pre book your table so they can arrange every thing...staff is very friendly the cafe itself is very small not good for big gatherings and not kids friendly at all
Tasteless food with bad ambience
Good taste, resonable prices. Some thing new to taste. Not suitable place for large gathering but over all good experince because taste matter and they have it.
Great place! Great taste! Ideal for seafood lovers highly recommended
Cleanliness issue plus taste of prawn masala was not appropriate and was only full of tomatoes paste and very less quantity of prawns.The price of lobster was too high as there was very less meat in the lobster and no taste at all.
Biryani was no good, lobster was very good
One of the best places to have fresh seafood. Pleasantly surprised at a restaurant doing seafood correctly and doing it so fresh. Great food. The only deduction bif the star is the place to eat is outside. But that might be the reason for the low costs
For sea food lovers, crabs were stale, lobsters were amazing
Tasteless
Good service, hygienic and really fresh servings.
The best and fresh exotic seafood tasted in Karachi to date
I got the all you can eat platter...everything tasted good but for food that literally took an hour and a half to make, it was somehow cold when it got to me and very overcooked.
Crabs are good. Pasta isnt.
The food was really good. Loved it but they need to have proper sitting arrangemnets.
Cool environment... Nice work
Slow service, fodd was good
A joke rather than a restaurant.. appears they are spending money on false advertising only and nothing else
Good foodGood price
Newly stated sea food joint though the place is not well built or even you cant recognize that you will find soke food hereBut once you seated you wil be served delicious sea food from all aroundCrabs lobster musclesall specialhighly recommended
Over priced. Cash only joint. Crabs were nothing to talk about.
Fantastic seafood. Brilliant grilled lobster served with an exceptional sauce and the best fried rice Ive had in years.
Lobsters are worth a try ... Crabs are also good ... Ambience is average
Amazing Seafood at reasonable price. No doubt, Cafe Sino is the best Seafood cafe in Karachi.
Very good experience and highly recommended to all food lovers to go to this place and enjoy the healthy and good quality food
Lobster Thermidor yummilicious
If you want to enjoy fresh sea foods like lobsters and crabs, then this is the place to be.
Loved the food!
Authentic seafood joint. A premium place to try lobsters.
Amazing seafood - will remind of street food of Phuket
Menu is very rare but the taste is just o.k.
Not a good place to sitVery unexpectedSuper unhygenicCame back after seeing the place
Very Nice And Cooperative Staff
Mediocre food most of the times.They dont ensure fresh fish all of the times, but when they do - you wont get a better option in Karachi.Lets hope they improve their standards.Dont order jumbo or tiger prawns because their odour is too overwhelming.
Beautyful place for seafoods
