Royal Karahi is a halal Pakistani and Desi BBQ restaurant located at the prominent corner of Queen Street East and Parliament Street in Toronto's Corktown neighbourhood. Situated in a vibrant downtown pocket, the eatery brings traditional flavours and late-night dining options to the eastern edge of the core, offering an accessible space for locals seeking authentic South Asian street-style dishes and hearty meals.

First-time visitors can explore an extensive menu featuring signature items like slow-cooked Nalli Nihari, chicken karahi, biryani, and various grilled skewers such as chicken malai boti. Prices generally range from moderate individual plates to family-style sharing portions. The establishment maintains late operating hours, frequently serving guests past midnight, making it a practical option for late-night cravings or casual group dinners after evening events in the downtown area.
