This place near the railway station was a recommendation of one of the colleague! Friends is a friendly place and quite famous for vegetarian delight and you will find a queue to enter and a long waiting! People are crazy for its dal specially trust me it’s an amazing place for a vegetarian delight!
Breads are also special but the dal is just out of the world will recommend everyone to visit this place!
Dal is all time fav here with no comparison
Food was good with good quantity Prices are a bit high overall rating ambience 3.5/5 and for food 4/5
Excellent place with excellent food. Cheese tomaro and pyaz parantha is really exceptional. Worth going and worth trying this place. Cheap and best place.
It is oldest dhaba in ludhiana . I tried Bharata and butter roti. It was delicious and loved to visit again. If you are in ludhiana you must visit this place .
Super delicious indian food.
Dal makhani and shahi paneer with laccha parantha is the best combination.

They prepare food in pure desi ghee which makes it more flavoursome

A limited menu eatery with an extremely fast and quick service. They serve only paranthas and about 3-4 veggies to go along. The seating is spread over two floors. Wash basin is outside the eatery and inside as well. It is right on the main road.
Food quality is terrific. Especially the salads. They are fresh cut, including beetroots, cucumber and carrots. The salads are served with salt in a small pouch. They also give complimentary onion salad along with pickles. The portion sizes are huge. Punjab style.
Good place to have a hearty meal.
Pro: Known For Best DAL FRY From Last 35 Years.
All Food Fresh.
Cons: Limited Menu. Location. Atmosphere. Cleanliness.
But DAL FRY, Cheese Tomato, Malai Kofta Best 4Ever.
An authentic punjabi food.. Al time favourite Dal makhni , shahi paner n cheese tomato 😋.. And yes kheer is just awesome....it wud just cost u nearly 500 bugs for two people.. and that too tummy full with great food .... 😀😀
One of oldest and finest dhabas of the city. It is known for its taste. They have very limited menu but everything on it is tasty undoubtedly. Try to visit on weekdays as it is overcrowded on weekends . Service is kinda good. But cleanliness is an issue. But yeah no flaw of this dhaba can overcome its taste.

Good items so delicious I am happy and my family members and all others my friend's . Thanks for your copratiom. This is very testy for all foods
Food tastes amazing....uniqueness in flavours.The quantity served is quite less though it's desi ghee preparation but still quantity should be more.

Very tasty food specially Dal Fry and Cheese Tomato.When ever we visit there we always order these two items.Everybody should try their food it is delicious.
We have been here so many times for the vegetarian food. It's always our first preference for veg food spec. Dal makhni..nice place to go with family.
today I had brought 3 fry dals, one cheese tomato & 12 tandoori roti along with onions & achar. all the things were nice & tasty. but salad or onions achar was not freash & some stinking. why they ignore this small things only they know.
HARJIT SINGH photos of all the things are attached.
Amazing food they serve. Despite short menu they serve amazing food with good flavours. And the salad is amazing too. Though there is space on groundfloor and first floor but still there is no space to sit as its a famous dhaba
One of the best restaurants in ludhiana
Great food
Affordable prices
Great quantity
A beautiful place
But area is not good at all
All around there are beer stalls looks so awkward
But all the good things nullifies these poor thinhs
It is very close to the Ludhiana Railway Station and the food tastes amazing. Dal Makhani and Paneer dishes are so delicious that whenever you visit/hear about Ludhiana the name Friends Dhaba will be will automatically pop up in your mind.
Been there? Great. Not yet? Leave all work and order their daal makhani, malai kofta and shahi paneer. One of the oldest dhabas of ludhiana. Serving delicious indian food always.
Mouth watering and finger licking dishes....dishes are limited and Dal has no match. Space is very less and management can be better. Quick service.
Kheer is awesome.
Must try .. the methi Malai mutter , beagan Bartha , Shahi Paneer .. with the yum parantha
It’s a very famous an old dhaba ambience nothing to ride about
The FOOD is vegetarian but yum the the food taste has been consistent since 5-6 Years since I first tried it
Must - try when in Ludhiana

The dal fry specialist ....!!!
I have never been ate the dal fry like they served. Well perfect cooked. The staff are also very polite. The owner has an personal supervision over the things .. the food is super awsum ..
Cons: the menu should be wide .. they have less choices.
Daal parotha means Friends Dhaba. A typical Dhaba Dal prepared in shudh Desi Ghee and cooked to expertise to a level you cant say a no each time you pass by. Parking can be an issue but it is worth giving a fight for. Team it up with a lachha parantha and there you go ending up stuffed too much but a want to have more type of feeling. Superawesome
Another dhaba which is very well known among the ludhianvis. They have a limited menu but everything is really well prepared. Budget friendly and quick service. Their specialty is dal makhni, malai kofte and shahi paneer.
Paneer ,bharta and dal makhni
Roti with onion and pickle chatni
Full of desi ghee preparation
Lot of calories with coke for digestion
Amazing flavours for old and young
Meal at friends dhaba is always fun
Pure vegetarian desi ghee preparation of friends ka dhaba in Ludhiana is just a wowww for everyone .Thou the ambience and location is not that good but one you go there and have food you forget all worries of the world. Food can be ordered for home deliveries as well and you can make your party rocking with friends ka dal tadka yummmmmmm😍😍
Their dal.. black dal is a must try for people who likes spicy and masaledar food..
Comes with a tarka of ghee and fried onions .. i havent tried much but the place is always full..
I visited this place because of all the great things I had heard of its food. And I wasn't tad bit disappointed. I had ordered veg thali and kheer. Everything on my plate was appetising. Kheer was the best part of my visit. This place is nothing great on ambience and the staff is okay-ish. But the food is worth revisiting for.
This place is good too have a punjabi meAl . This has locak and fresh taste. Their dal , bharta and kofta are too tasty. So if you wAnt to have a quick fresh dhaba meal this is perfect place for you
This place is amongst the oldest dhabas i know in ludhiana, this is the favourite spot for having lunch near the junction area, I have been to this place many a times and everytime i visited this place, i have been satisfied with the food they serve. Had malai kofta, shahi paneer and dal makhni along with roti. Out of all dal makhni was the best and it was like a dal with plenty of butter in it. The quantity of paneer was less but taste was ok.
Malai kofta was also good and we even got it without onion on demand.
The rotis were ok.
Overall a nice experience.
Friends Dhaba offers a delightful culinary experience with its standout dishes like the amazing Maa Ki Dal and flavorful Baigan Ka Bharta. The convenience of its location makes it a go-to spot for a quick and satisfying meal. The packet salad is a refreshing addition, providing a healthy balance to the hearty flavors of the main courses. The fast service ensures that even during peak hours, you won't have to wait long to indulge in their delectable offerings. However, it's important to note that the ambiance may not be the highlight here, as the focus is on the scrumptious food rather than extravagant decor. The popularity of Friends Dhaba is evident, with it being consistently busy – a testament to its reputation for delivering delicious, no-frills meals. For a fulfilling and fuss-free dining experience, Friends Dhaba is a top choice.
Food is amazing.
We tried Shahi Paneer, Mixed Vegetable, Butter Naan & Ghee Roti. All the food items were awesome!
Staff's behaviour too is good! Liked the ambience too.
Friends is one of the oldest best-selling food restaurants in old Ludhiana. Food taste and quantity are just amazing. It's a family restaurant with unique flavors and tastes.
Since its beginning, they haven't changed their food taste and quality.
The speed of serving food is amazing.
Had heard a lot of good reviews about authentic Punjabi taste in food of this place. Tried once,we ordered one Paneer dish, Dal Makhni & Naan. Food preparation was good with lot of Butter. Liked their Dal Makhni. In my view,it's good but slightly overhyped.
Seating arrangement & ambience may need a makeover considering the crowd.
One of the Popular dhaba in Ludhiana Serving Food Since 1962. Having Limited menu Item's....Service & Food is Quite Good....
Food taste is so good and fresh. Staff is active and energetic..
But one gimic is there, If you visit any restaurant/food court in India, they are offering you normal drinking water free of cost. If you ask for mineral water, they served on chargeable basis... At this place, Staff simply provide you mineral water bottle without your demand and If you consume it, you have to pay 20 rs. for it... It is wrong practice. One positive thing is that if you raise your voice at reception, they deduct money for the same and provide a bill for food only. People awareness plays a vital role at this place.
Friends Dhaba - Ludhauina in market
This one of the old place for authentic panjabi food in Ludhauina.
They server amazing double tadka dal . Tomato cheese masala, palak panner amazing paratha and amazing khir and dal. They don’t serve rice.
Very pocket friendly place.
If you go ludhiana must try place.
All over amazing experience.
Very old hotel with no variation in taste. There are just a few dishes in the menu booklet. Just one raita( lauki raita) . I think there must be more options. But the quality of food is always good. Great service. But the atmosphere isn't very impressive . We asked for a simple curd if there wasn't any other option, but they refused.
Serving food since 1962 friends dhaba has variety of delicious food to offer.
Yummy double dal tadka, paneer butter masala, mix veg are good . Fresh butter tandoori roti very delicious.
Location of dhaba is on kothi meer Singh road
2 km away from ludhiana.
Parking space is available.
One of the oldest and best dhaba in Ludhiana. Best taste very cheap price and good services. In old times it was famous with the tag that it’s situated Opp to Navlakha talkies.
Visited first time 6 years back and had a nice food here. We visited recently and its really very nice and had the same delicious food.
The Iconic Friend's Dhaba of Ludhiana folks. 100% vegetarian (not vegan).Very near the Railway Station (walking max 5 mins). Famous for Kali Dal Tadka & Prantha. Shudh Desi Ghee is used here. And for all lover's of Maa Ki Dal Tadka with Paranthas this is one u cannot miss. Also on the menu is Shahi Paneer, Baingan Ka Bhartha, Mixed Vegetable, Cheese Tomato & a host of other things but the most ordered dishes are the ones I have stated. Not cheap, not expensive, in the medium range. Opens near Lunch Time, 12'O'Clock & closing time around 11:30pm. But best to come around 8pm if you don't want to wait for seating. On weekends dinner time the waiting time can be 20 to 30 minutes & you really hv to stand outside, or wait in yr nearby parked car. A Very Huge Commercial Complex is coming up just opposite the dhaba but it's still a couple of years before it will be operational. Good place to bring family but don't expect any ambience. Enjoy the food. For desert they hv their special kheer. Cold drinks & Bottled Water available.
