A long-running PECHS Block 2 institution for Pakistani-Chinese food — chowmein, soups, and a broad Chinese menu with occasional buffet offerings, since 2016.
Operating in PECHS Block 2 since 2016, La Chine — officially La Chine by Kababjees — is one of the area's established names for Pakistani-Chinese food. Rather than aiming for strict regional authenticity, its menu leans into the fusion style that's popular across Karachi: chowmein, hot & sour soup, Chinese-style chicken and beef dishes, alongside a broader Continental-leaning selection of pasta and steaks.
The restaurant has built a large Google review base over the years, and its menu spans soups, starters, noodles, rice, seafood, and desserts — with buffet dining also offered during select periods, including recent Ramadan buffets. As with most Chinese restaurants in Karachi, some dishes land more consistently than others, and customer experiences here are genuinely mixed rather than uniformly glowing — a good starting point rather than a guaranteed favorite.

La Chine works well for a casual lunch or dinner with family or a group looking to share a wide range of Pakistani-Chinese dishes. If a seasonal buffet is running (La Chine has offered Ramadan buffets in past years), it's worth checking current availability and pricing directly, since these are time-limited offerings rather than a permanent menu feature.
Given mixed feedback on service speed during busier periods, allowing extra time — especially for larger groups — is a reasonable expectation.
La Chine has held a steady place in PECHS Block 2's Pakistani-Chinese dining scene since 2016, with a broad menu and a large volume of Google reviews behind it. It's a reasonable pick for a family Chinese-food dinner, particularly for dishes like chowmein, hot & sour soup, and its signature chicken and seafood plates.
That said, customer experiences here are genuinely mixed — some diners describe excellent meals and good service, while others report slower service or dishes that didn't meet expectations. It's best approached as a dependable, established option among Karachi's Chinese restaurants rather than a guaranteed top pick, and worth checking current reviews before a visit.
La Chine is located in PECHS Block 2, on Allama Iqbal Road off Tariq Road, Karachi.
