Rickshaw Pakistani & Indian Street Eats — Restaurant in Jefferson Township

RED ALERT!!! DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT step foot into this restaurant!

I flew all the way from Boston, starving and excited for a good meal, only to be utterly let down by what can only be described as a complete scam. I came in, ordered a spread that included Lamb Karahi, Butter Chicken, Fried Fish, Naans, and Parathas. It sounds good, right? Well, think again.

First, they tell me they make their Naans fresh. Nope! What they don't tell you is that they get the same exact frozen Deep Naans from an Indian grocery store, warm them up, and sell them to you for $2 per Naan. That's a total rip-off when you can buy the same thing for $3.79 at the store! Oh, and don’t even get me started on the Parathas. They claimed they were imported from Pakistan. Another lie! It turns out those too come from a local Indian store, warmed up and slapped onto my plate. How dishonest can you get?

We spent over $50 and didn’t even get what we paid for—nothing fresh, nothing authentic. The food was terrible. I could have made better at home. To make matters worse, I checked their reviews online, and I’m convinced they're all fake. I’d bet my last dollar they paid for those ratings because this place doesn’t deserve even a single star.

Save your money, your time, and your taste buds. This place is a scam. Trust me, there are way better options out there. Don’t fall...

WARNING: DO NOT even think about stepping into this restaurant!

We'd a guest hungry and eager for a great meal, only to be completely disappointed by what I can only describe as a total rip-off. I ordered Lamb Karahi, Butter Chicken, Fried Fish, Naans, and Parathas, expecting something delicious. Big mistake.

First of all, they claim to make their Naans fresh. That’s a joke. Turns out, they’re just buying frozen Deep Naans from an Indian grocery store, warming them up, and charging $2 per Naan for something that costs $3.79 at the store. Pure scam. And the Parathas? They said they were from Pakistan—another lie. They’re just the same stuff from the local Indian store, reheated and served like it’s a gourmet dish.

We spent over $50 and got absolutely nothing worth that price. The food was awful. I could’ve cooked a better meal myself. To top it off, after looking at their reviews, I’m convinced they’re all fake. I wouldn't be surprised if they paid for those glowing ratings because this place doesn’t even deserve a single star.

Do yourself a favor—save your money, time, and taste buds. This place is a total fraud. There are plenty of other places to try, so don’t fall...

Yo. Let me just say this real quick. This place SLAPS. I walked in thinking I was gonna grab a quick bite and ended up in a full-blown flavor coma. I’m basically a shareholder now the way I keep coming back.

The biryani? Bro. It’s not just good. It’s emotional.. Like I almost texted my mom after the first bite. But I stopped myself. Her Briyani is better, but this is very close second. Spices hit like they got beef with you. Rice cooked like someone’s ammi was in the kitchen judging everybody.

Then the mirchi pakora pulled up like “you said you like spicy?” Whole jalapeños, fried like they just got promoted. Crunchy on the outside, dangerous on the inside. Perfect balance of pain and pleasure.

And the bun kababs? Don’t even get me started. Those things are a Karachi street food love letter. The patty, the egg, the sauce, the soft bun, it’s giving traffic jam on Tariq Road at 9pm.

Prices are fair, portions are generous, and the owner is cool as hell. Like actually cares if you’re enjoying the food. Which you will. Because it’s fire.

You’re not eating. You’re time traveling to a food stall in Pakistan with semi better parking. Run, don’t walk....
