After 26 Heartfelt Years
Karachi restaurant closing news is hard to share, but after 26 years at Hunters Plaza, it is time to say goodbye. Since the year 2000, you have been our family. Before we close our doors, we want to stay connected with you. Please leave your details below so we can reach out one more time, and whenever we have something special to share.
The Final Chapter For Karachi Indian Cuisine And Karachi Kebabs

In the words of our loyal customers
Karachi Indian Cuisine
"The best butter chicken in NZ and Australia" 🌹
In the words of our loyal customers
To Our Beautiful Karachi Family ❤️
This is one of the hardest letters we have ever had to write.
Since 2000, you walked through our doors as customers and slowly, beautifully, became our family. We watched your little ones grow into teenagers, and your teenagers become parents.
So many of you moved to Australia, moved cities, or moved on with life. And yet, every time you fly back to Auckland, you still walk through our doors. That love is the greatest gift any business owner could ever receive. 🥹
You tell us we are the best in New Zealand and Australia, and those words have kept us going through every long shift. It is YOU who made us that.
The Karachi Restaurant Closing Story: 26 Years Of Memories
Thank you for 26 incredible years at Hunters Plaza, Papatoetoe.
For 26 years, Karachi Indian Cuisine and Karachi Kebabs have been a quiet anchor in the Hunters Plaza Food Court. We opened our doors in the year 2000 with a simple promise: cook every plate the way we would cook it for our own family. That promise has not changed in over two and a half decades.
Generations of customers have walked through our food court, ordered the same butter chicken their parents ordered, brought their kids in for the first time, and told us stories of moving overseas only to keep coming back whenever they visited Auckland. The karachi restaurant closing date marks the end of an era, but the memories we built with you will outlive any address.
We have served wedding rehearsal dinners, birthday lunches, post-cricket-match feasts, late night cravings, and Friday family treats. We watched grandmothers teach grandchildren to tear naan with their hands. We saw friendships born across our counter. None of it was just business.
Our Most Loved Dishes Through The Years
Customers often ask which dishes defined our restaurants. Honestly, every single plate has a story. But these are the names that come up again and again: Butter Chicken, Lamb Biryani, Chicken Tikka, Seekh Kebab, Karahi, Chicken Karahi, fresh hand stretched Naan, and our signature Karachi Peri Peri Sauce. You can still order these one final time before we close from our full menu here.
Why Karachi Restaurant Is Closing
After 26 years, our lease at Hunters Plaza is coming to an end. It is also time for our family to rest, spend more time together, and look after our health. While the karachi restaurant closing news is bittersweet, we want to celebrate the journey rather than mourn the ending.
Every long day in the kitchen was worth it because of you. Every early start, every late close, every busy Eid and Diwali rush, every quiet Tuesday lunch with a regular who became a friend. You can read more about our journey on our About page, or browse the kind words customers have left us in our customer feedback section.
