Cosa Nostra
If you are in Lahore (Pakistan) and you have never visited “Cosa Nostra” then it means that you are missing a high quality food. Cosa Nostra is located in the heart of Gulberg. Once you are within the walls of the restaurant, you do not feel like you are in Lahore and it feels like a foreign restaurant.
The restaurant is divided into three parts, La pizzeria, cosa Nostra (the fine dining experience) and La Grille on the roof top, which is catering Italian grilled food for the first time in Pakistan. La pizzeria serves Italian snack food with the utmost authenticity.
There are more than 500 original recipes created by the family. The price tags are quiet reasonable. La pizzeria comes up to about RS 500-600 per head excluding taxes, which is affordable. The fine dining experience is available at a price tag of RS 1590 per head excluding taxes, it is little expensive but I think that it worth it. When one takes the first bite of anything from the menu, gets immediately transported to Italy.
People of Lahore love eating so dining out is not a big deal for them, but the concept of the fine dining and its etiquettes are always misunderstood. Cosa Nostra is bound to provide the right experience.

Cosa nostra is not my resturant, i just wrote the review about it Hasan.
Neel,
Thank you so much for your review here. I was looking for the best possible Italian cuisine in Lahore with a quiet, peaceful atmosphere. So is Cosa Nostra the place or could it get any better than this in Lahore?
what about the setting inside the cosa Nostra (the fine dining experience). is the pic in here form the place? does it get too crowded?
regards,
Naeem
the food quality is best and it is crowded on weekends other wise on week days crowd is normal……………….the interior is stunning and this pic is not of cosa nostra, i tried but i didnt find any on net. Next time i will visit it then i must take some pics……………..and you should try that fine dining experience
Bad choice of the name though. Who would be crazy enough to name their restaurant after the Mafia?
whatever,but its a good restarunt and its quiet famous in Pakistan.
yeah it was amazing to see the beer & wine being served openly in so called ISLAMIC REPUBLIC OF PAKISTAN, what a shame for owners of Cosa Nostra………. and ppl drinking there………… it was really pathetic…………..
I hate it when ppl go to a posh place for eyecandy and then complain they saw something un Islamic! Thats what i call pathetic!
hi i am from brussels belgium and love pakistan and lahore, please give me the adress a and tel nr for this cosa nostra i would love to eat there
by the way why you not let the wine and beer free in pakistan, people can make their own choice and it would be harder not to drink then when there is no possibility at all and then people make their own alcohol which can be dangerous and killing…..
it is easy to say we dont drink ,if there is nothing to find on the market,exept for the ones with the money…

ye to Madam Yasmeen ka number hai na..
I don’t know whose number is this. I took it from yellow pages.
Well, i went to cosa nosta, and I loved it! As for your comment, Rizwan, it is time that we progress forward and look at other unislamic things being done in our society instead of concentrating on trivial issues such as ‘offering of wine/beer’…if u dont agree with it, fine, but dont poke ur nose into somebody’s else s business. that is unacceptable. even if the restaurant owners are serving it, it is not harming you in any matter, so refrain from commenting about the owners in such a negative manner. GROW UP!
Ali, if the root of legislation is theological, does that mean it can be ignored. its one thing to say that you believe in secularization and that there is nothing wrong with unislamic practices prevailing in society, but if u do have legislation criminalizing( not simply banning) the possession and sale of alcohol, then i believe it is sad that we cant enforce such laws on out elite.
I would like to visit it in this week. Neelam i love to read your review.

Kashif
i hope that you will like it:)
