Our History

The Legacy of Makhan Fish Company

The story of Machhiwala is rooted in the remarkable journey of Late Shri Makhan Lal, the founder of Makhan Fish Company. Born in 1939 in Shahpur Village, District Okara (now in Pakistan), Makhan Lal experienced the upheaval of the 1947 Partition at just nine years old. His family migrated to India, enduring challenges before settling near the Ghaggar River in Firozabad Village.

Expanding this legacy, The Machhi Wala, our restaurant, offers a unique culinary experience that blends tradition with innovation.

They Say

The Machhiwala brings back the true taste of Amritsar’s heritage! Their Amritsari Machhi is crispy, flavorful, and just melts in the mouth. The service was quick and the staff genuinely cared about our experience. A must-visit for anyone who loves real Punjabi flavors.

Absolutely loved the vibe here! You can feel the legacy of Makhan Fish in every bite. Tried the Fish Tikka and Peri-Peri Grilled Fish — both cooked to perfection. The restaurant balances heritage with modern dining beautifully. Great food, great team, great story.

Visited last weekend and was really impressed. The Steam Ginger Fish was light, fresh, and healthy — something rare to find around here. Loved the warm ambiance and how the staff explained each dish’s background. The Machhiwala lives up to its legendary name!
