Nice place to dine out. They have setup a very nice outdoor space. Pizza’s are a must try and good appetizers. Gouda Burger is meh.... so won’t suggest to risk a try better fill your burger craving from a burger joint!

First time visiting Xanders and they did not disappoint. One of the few places which have a proper outdoor sitting space. We ordered Crab Gratin, Mini Spicy Salami Pizza, Trio Burgers and in dessert we had Double Brownie.Everything tasted superb, the pizza was the highlight of my experience, the salami and the cheese complimented very well and I must suggest that its a must try for anyone who is a pizza lover.The only negative thing that I experienced was that all the burgers in the trio tasted almost the same.

So here is my two bit about Xanders - tipu sultan. It was worth every penny. Its moderately expensive but the food was exquisite. The Crab Appetizer Crab Gratin was amazing and well cooked so were the smoked beef and gouda burger, the signature criapy calamari appetizer and its sauce were perfectly cooked and tasted amazing, pepperoni pizza was also well made and delicious hats off to the chef on those. The only issue I had was with the mashed potatoes served with parmesan chicken, they were rather plain or maybe Ive had better. To top it all off if you ever go there based in this recommendation dont forget to try their Creme brulee.. it was DELICIOUS beyond words. The ambiance was great the staff was very friendly and there was barely any wait at all our appetizers arrived maybe 10 minutes after placing the order. 10/10 Highly recommended.

Visited Xander’s over the weekend. Ordered parmesan chicken beef tenderloin stake and the special sandwich. The chicken was juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside. The beef stake was delicious. The sandwich however was blah. Nice place to visit with family or friends.

Very good! Comfortable outdoor seating arrangements, smart service and the usual delicious food. My X-burger was good (with sweet potato fries).

Xander’s Alfredo pasta is supposed to be their signature dish.One of my friends ordered the Chicken Alfredo and I ordered the turkey.The sauce in the Turkey Alfredo was repulsive and after a few bites, I could not eat more without feeling the urge to throw-up. The chicken Alfredo was not as good as I remembered it— it was comparatively bland. I then ordered the all berry smoothie. I am considerate of the fact that smoothies are generally sweet, but after my friends tried it, we all agreed that it was almost sickeningly sweet. It was sugar with flavouring, nothing more. I’ll give it a 2 star review only because my friend’s creme brûlée French toast and the tarragon orange chicken were satisfying.The service was sub-par. Our server was moody and had an attitude. It was as if he was being paid to interrupt us, the number of times he did. There were seven of us and the bill came to 1300 on average. Imagine paying that much and then getting food that wasn’t the least bit worth it.What a waste.

The Xanders club was really good, great serving and extremely filling, cant say the same about the other items we ordered. A lot of it were fancy names and very Desi dishes.

The location is not good, central but very crowded environment. However, after entering this restaurent all atmosphere is changing. Also tastes are amazing. I ate red snapper, ceaser salad and double chocolate brownie and all of them were perfect.

We were around 12 friends and ordered so many things from Pizza to seafood mains to chicken and beef mains and starters and beverages and the quantity was so disappointing as well as nothing was impressive.. It was back in 2019 though before COVID and the place was crowded because it was not too capacious, the ambiance was not too comforting.. overall not what you hope from one of those fancy restaurant experiences..

Such an awesome experience. Its a nice cozy place when you are in dire need for some fine dining with your loved ones. The food is absolutely flavourful and the menu is very diversified. The menu has some items from the wood fired oven which are really worth trying.The service was very fast with no compromise on quality although it was a rush time . I tried loaded siracha fries as appetizers. The main course dishes really made the mood . The pepperoni pizza, flame grilled chicken with cold potato salad and beef undercut with chimichuri sauce and just for a try the honey mustard grilled chicken open sandwich was a real treat for hungry foodies like us. The fresh lemonades added freshness and zing to the mood. Last but not the least , the caramel blondies with hot caramel sauce was like being in heaven for a sweet tooth. Its just once you will visit it but afterwards you will crave for it whenever you want good food..

Looking for a cozy place with a great taste & quick service? Well, I bet xanders is a place for you then. Food quality, Taste & serving is very good. Indoor sitting area is well lit & decorated. A bit expensive but worth the taste & environment.

The portion I would say was small, the meat itself was like butter in my mouth it was amazing. The mushroom sauce was a great unique taste but it should not have tried to be a main serving in steak dish, baked potato was average and good.I would have preferred more sautéed vegetables but it was sufficient. Overall great experience.

Review №22

The restaurant had good ambience and very tasty food. I would suggest to try the X burger, it was amazing, a juicy patty with tomatoes and onion, a simple blend not that fancy but the taste was excellent. A very nice and cosy place to eat with family and friends. A couple of things to consider if you are thinking of visiting, first thing is that its a bit expensive and second the service is very slow during busy hours.

Cosy environment with great ambiance comfortable for family and kids friendly. The food tastes great, serve size is rather average maybe standardised but satisfies a hunger. Tried their steak and pasta, really enjoyed. Dessert is good too but depends on the buds of individuals.The architecture of the place is very soothing especially the space being flooded with natural light.The staff is really courteous, helpful and polite.

Amazing place to get a little bite. Cooperative staff. Cleanliness and food quality is very good. Prices are up but manageable. Takes a little bit more time to bring order as compared to others. Building is well constructed and well ventilated. Lightning scheme and sitting arrangements are nice.

Food not good enough, ambience unsatisfactory, staff rude and unwelcoming, the point you are finished with food they would stand behind your table in the group of 4 and keep on staring till you pay the bill and leave they wont even let you finish the drink. I dont know whos giving them 4 or 5 stars, you can feel a better ambience and welcoming environment in a road side cabin.

Great experience as always. Ingredients are fresh and meals are light and hearty. They have their own take on brick oven pizza which is very different from other eateries in Pakistan which are serving American style pizza. Theirs is more Italian style pizza with fresh ingredients. Especially the use of Sun-dried tomatoes and Cherry Tomatoes is different from other eateries.

Review №45

Its okay, if you know what to order they do offer some really good dishes like the Norwegian pizza (if youre a sushi/sashimi lover, youll enjoy this) and their creme Brulee. But their steak was tasteless and they dont cook it to your liking (I ordered medium rare but got medium well even after returning it once) not worth its price.

Review №46

Their breakfast deal is so on point. It takes away the headache of deciding between the things and you can easily navigate through the items and get the whole deal with breakfast, desert and hot drink inclusive. The staff is all smiles and the wait time is not that much. The ambiance is good and I like this place to have small company breakfast gatherings in a worry free environment. We were around 12 people and everything was managed to perfection. Loved it.

After a lot of peoples recommendations, i finally visited Xanders today.The food was really nice and the thing that i appreciate the most is the restaurants strict compliance to COVID-19 SOPs.The small suggestion that I would like to give is to make a waiting area for the customers so that they dont have to wait outside.

You can grab a quick open-faced sandwich, a bowl of pasta, an ‘old school cheeseburger’ or a delicious dessert along with the all day breakfast that they will be serving. The cafe’s ambience is minimalistic and vibrant. WI-FI and the latest lounge music, Xander’s promises to be the perfect place for the city’s younger and older discerning customers to get together.

Its an amazing place. Cozy and bright ambiance. You can find variety of sandwiches, burgers, steak, soup, and oh yes their coffee is to die for. An exciting breakfast menu.The place is not kids friendly though.. Its quite noisy and and crowded on weekend evenings which is like everywhere.They provide excellent service and the staff is courteous.The thing i loved was they seemed quite eco-friendly. Handkerchiefs instead of tissues. No plastic straw.,paper bags.So thumbs-up Quality of food 10/10Taste 10/10Ambiance 10/10Service 10/10So if you are planning you next hang out with friends or a date. Give it a try. Thank me later.

Amazing place, friendly staff. They went above and beyond to make sure they attend to my requests. I don’t drink milk and they created fresh almond milk for me though it was not on the menu. They value and recognize their regular guests which is rare in a place like Karachi. Thank you Bisharat and the team

Xanders cafe is talk of the town these days and today I have got the chance to visit this beautifully decorated cafe I was truly amazed by their environment they have managed to merge romantic and comfy atmosphere all together with candles on every table, comfortable velvet sofas or indoor plants let you feel fresh you don’t need to play any music there the laughter of young blood will make you feel relaxed. Food we ordered was margarita pizza , fried calamari, cafe latte , hot chocolate and cold coffee starting with pizza it was thin crust with minimal sauce and generous amount of cheese tasted delicious, calamari was piping hot when served it was crispy from outside and chewy from inside tastes perfect with vinegar n kale, I ordered cafe latte for my self which was real kick (my brain got active as soon as I took my first sip) over all we had fun with lip smacking food.Follow me on instagram @nido.salim

They have the worst taste ever. I tried it twice, once near clifton branch and another Tipu Sultan one. I ordered prawns and ravioli respectively. But it looks like they just put ingredients in a bowl and mix it and serve. Worst taste. I would never recommend anyone to go to this place.
