Had a lovely brunch at Café di Lasso in Halifax. The café is aesthetic, cozy, and halal, which makes it a great spot for everyone. We ordered the Spanish iced latte, a classic latte, and the creamy chicken and mushroom tagliatelle — everything was fresh, full of flavour, and beautifully presented. A special mention to Malheeha, who was excellent with her customer service and made the experience even better. Definitely going back to try more from their wide range of dishes!

I never thought a place could do both English and desi breakfast so well. Desi breakfast is noticeably fresh. Could literally smell the parathas and chana being made in the kitchen. The sausage with the full English was the best !!!! Suggestion: Add sourdough bread to the menu.

From the moment I walked into Café Di Lusso, I felt completely welcomed. The staff are warm, attentive, and genuinely make you feel at home – (Especially Maleeha) nothing was too much trouble. The service is quick but not rushed, with a personal touch that makes the whole experience special. The food is outstanding – beautifully presented, full of flavour, and clearly made with passion. Every dish I tried was fresh, delicious, and of the highest quality. You can really tell that Café Di Lusso takes pride in both its menu and its standards. It’s rare to find somewhere that combines exceptional food with such a friendly, inviting atmosphere, but Café Di Lusso absolutely delivers. A true gem – I’ll definitely be returning and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great place to eat and relax.

Saw some posts on Instagram and came across Cafe Di’Lusso - so we thought we’d get brunch here whilst in Halifax. The decor is very nice and is tastefully designed; as you can see from the other reviews. I ordered the Eggs Benedict Royal (my usual order wherever I go for breakfast) and my family ordered the Full English, Wild Berry French Toast and some of the Korean Chicken. Firstly, the food was presented very well. The English breakfast was good, however, the Eggs Royal was not the best. I’m accustomed to runny poached eggs - but these were fully cooked (I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt as I could have specified. However, I didn’t think I needed to). The hollandaise sauce also lacked a bit of flavour. The Korean chicken also wasn’t my favourite, as it tasted slightly smokey and more like bbq chicken. (Again not an issue if that’s how you like it). The French toast was delicious and redeems the two items which I didn’t like. Staff here are very friendly, welcoming and polite. We were provided with excellent service. Overall, given the staff, the presentation of both the food and shop. I would recommend if you are in the area.

My husband and I are visiting from New York and came across Cafe Di Lusso on TikTok. We were served by Maheen who was extremely friendly and welcoming, she even helped with my 5 month old whilst I enjoyed my hot drink! The atmosphere was very cosy and everything we ordered was 10/10, very flavorful and presentation was immaculate. The owner Haseeb was also very welcoming and hospitable. We definitely recommend this cafe as a family friendly environment. Can’t wait to visit again before we leave :)

Came today with friends for a meal. It was delicious and we ended up having desserts and hot drinks. The owner and team are lovely and make you feel very welcome. Definitely recommend this place. Especially the desserts and hot drinks. It is fully halal and is a modern day multicultural cafe.

The food was really tasty, the mac chicken was very flavourful and filling. Love the aesthetic of the cafe. The chai latte and Spanish latte was one of the best so far i have tried thanks to the lovely server Maliha
