Today I’m finally trying Mad Italian in Lahore — a restaurant my Lahori friends have been obsessively recommending to me for months. Their Instagram is full of gorgeous, glossy shots of pasta and pizza, so of course I had to see for myself whether the hype is real.
In this video, I walk you through my full dining experience: the ambience, the service, the pasta, the pizza, and whether this spot deserves its reputation as one of Lahore’s go-to Italian restaurants. If you’re planning to travel to Pakistan, looking for the best restaurants in Lahore, or simply love food videos with honest commentary, this one’s definitely for you.
As always, this review is from the perspective of someone who loves exploring Pakistani food culture, international cuisine, and discovering the best places to eat — whether they’re viral, overhyped, or actually worth it.
Watch till the end for my final rating… because even the prettiest pasta can surprise you.

Its a vlog in real sense. A video blog, something, that has lost meaning in the race to push 'quality' content, compromising on authenticity. I enjoyed watching it. Thank you.
You should try krae amazinggggggg food I literally go to Lahore to try it
Outstanding video and review as always. Engaging storytelling make it a must-watch. Top-tier content!
good food, but also a good migraine!!! hahahahaha. you got a strange sense of humour man!
Lahore food is disappointing.Karachi is much much better.
Maddd for mad italian
That soup at 0:57 looks soooo good

Thanks for the interesting video and the honest review!Bamboo Union should give you a discount for all that free promo.😂The food looks and tastes great.Can’t wait for your review on authentic Chinese food next!😊
Pretty generous rating for a real mediocre restaurant. They only know how to do Al dente pasta in emulsified sauces. That’s it! Nothing Italian about the space nor the pizza or desserts. Don’t even dare to have their olive oil gelato. They will drizzle olive oil over a scoop of apparently HICO icecream
