"I frequent this bastion of Pakistani Cuisine in the E1 area regularly. The food here is unique (albeit oily) and Lahore One has a proud ownership, proud family and well-informed staff who will try to accommodate you as best as they can. The food here is quite different from the other major Pakistani outlets (Lahore Kebab House, Tayyab), some would say it has an authenticity that cannot be matched. The Lamb Karahi, Chana, and Kheer are legendary. There's a rather good veg option which can vary daily. On the Biriyani question, L1 do what many restaurants do which is to add curry to rice I find it remarkable that some on this review page expect more. If you want a genuine Biriyani go to Gymkhana in Mayfair! I am not surprised to read some scathing reviews on this page. I have witnessed some questionable customer behaviour, usually because some nubile's waltz in expecting a form of subservience from the minimal-sized staff in this small establishment instead are greeted with the opposite. The staff here are excellent and offer a service worthy of a cafeteria. This is not really restaurant service. if you like Bangla music blaring in your ear during lunch/dinner then go to Tayyab. Lahore One is committed to its minimalism, but significant in its quality."
