So it's been about 2 or more years since I came to this place. Previously they left a lot to be desired. I went with my family and decided to give them another try. I left pictures of what I ordered. Charga was very good, made fresh from what I gathered as the meat wasn't stale or smelly and the masala was well mixed. Same goes for the kebabs. Biryani was good, I mean, I can't expect fresh biryani but taste wise, it was made well, masala wasn't heavy. The gosht karahi in my opinion was made well and appropriate masala but too much oil. Naan was awesome, not too doughy and cooked appropriately. Overall, I think they are doing better than before but considering we were the only dine in there, it would be interesting if they can keep the same quality of the food if there were a restaurant full of people.

If you are in Philadelphia and in search of authentic Pakistani Halal food, this is best place to go. Interior is beautifully decorated and seating capacity is 50+. I order a mix grill plater so I can try all meat and different flavors, It comes with rice and salad, meat serving was good and included chicken Tika boti, seekh Kabob and lamb Kabob, I added fresh naan, mango lassi with it. Everything was very delicious. I really enjoyed my dinner there. Just request to management focus on customer service, it’s good but not as good as your food. I will recommend this place to others who want to try real Pakistani🇵🇰 food.

This is a place I have been going to for years and usually order the same dishes, which is their amazing Tawa chicken with lahori kulcha. The taste has been consistent and everything is cooked fresh, which does mean that it can involve a little waiting. So if you are in a hurry, please call ahead and order. The place is run by the owners and they are usually present all the time. There is enough parking around on the weekends and they accept credit cards.

I wonder if Gordon Ramsay from the HELL'S KITCHEN come see this mess at this place. a Call for the Philadelphia food and health office. Check the food sanity and storage of this place. Its a complete mess.

Worst experience ever. Had a meal that consists of soup, rice and salad. The meal is listed for $11 something. After 20 minutes of waiting they only bring me the soup , no rice and no salad. plus in the end my card was charged $19.97. This restaurant is a scam and straight BS. when i spoke to the manager about my meal, he told me my worker she is new and she forgot to bring you the rest of the meal. and he said i give you $2 discount on the meal. ( so retarded, my meal missing 2 main plates the rice and the salad. plus my card was charged about $8 more NOT $2 less. ) I also about an hour after i ate this soup. i vomited it. I almost never experienced this unless the food is contaminated. I will never ever go to this place and i would eat at a food truck than come to this SCAM again.

Very bad costomer service. Bad attitude toward the customers. No costomers reception or seating. The whole restaurant have only one bathroom, you have to wait in line to get a chance to wash your hands. Very poor communication between the employee of the restaurant.

I do not speak any of the languages below, but using google translate to hopefully get my point across to as many people as possible.

تر ټولو سخت تجربه. یو خوا درلود چې د سوپ، وريجو او سلاد څخه جوړ شوی. خواړه د $ 11 لپاره یو څه لیست شوي. د 20 دقیقو انتظار کولو وروسته دوی یوازې ما سوپ، چای او هیڅ سلاد راوړي. په پایله کې زما کارت 19.97 ډالر لګول شوي. دا رستورانت یو سکام او مستقیم بی ایس دی. کله چې مې د خپل ډوډۍ په اړه د مدیر سره خبرې وکړې، هغه ما وویل چې زما کارمند هغه نوې ده او هغه به تاسو ته پاتې خواړه راولی. او هغه وویل چې زه تاسو ته په ډوډۍ کې دوه ډالره رخصت درکوم. (له دې امله خوندور، زما خواړه دوه عمده سایټونه د وريجو او سلاد له لاسه ورکول دي. زما کارت شاوخوا 8 $ ډالر نور نه $ 2 کم شوی.) زه د یو ساعت په ترڅ کې ما دا سوپ خوړل. ما هغه لوټ کړ ما تقریبا هیڅکله دا تجربه نه درلوده تر څو چې خواړه خام نه وي. زه به هیڅکله هم دې ځای ته لاړ شم او زه به بیا د SCAM سره د خوراکی توکو په لار کې خواړه وخورم.

Now Translate to Hindi सबसे खराब अनुभव कभी। एक भोजन था जिसमें सूप, चावल और सलाद होते थे। भोजन $ 11 के लिए कुछ सूचीबद्ध है। इंतजार के 20 मिनट के बाद वे केवल मुझे सूप, चावल और कोई सलाद नहीं लाते हैं। इसके अलावा अंत में मेरे कार्ड पर $ 19.97 चार्ज किया गया था। यह रेस्टोरेंट एक घोटाला और सीधा बीएस है। जब मैंने अपने भोजन के बारे में प्रबंधक से बात की, तो उसने मुझे बताया कि वह मेरी कार्यकर्ता है, वह नई है और वह आपको बाकी भोजन लाने के लिए भूल गई। और उसने कहा कि मैं आपको भोजन पर $ 2 छूट देता हूं। (इसलिए मंद हो गया, मेरे भोजन में 2 मुख्य प्लेट चावल और सलाद गायब हैं। साथ ही मेरे कार्ड पर $ 8 और $ 2 कम नहीं लगाया गया था।) मैंने इस सूप खाए जाने के एक घंटे बाद भी। मैंने इसे उल्टी कर दिया। जब तक खाना दूषित नहीं होता तब तक मैंने कभी इसका अनुभव नहीं किया। मैं कभी भी इस जगह पर नहीं जाऊंगा और मैं इस एससीएएम में फिर से आने के...

I don’t know why I see bad reviews here, anyways today I was visiting PA from NJ with the family and needed a clean and friendly place for 6 people especially in the pandemic. we were all in a mood for some Pakistani food and we know the taste very well and prices, so not an issue if it’s a little higher than NY or NJ, I mean you are getting served and it isn’t a buffet, plus they make the food fresh, and no I’m not saying all NY and NJ places don’t make it fresh, some do and some don’t but I was very happy that they made everything fresh plus the Resturant was clean, family friendly and had efficient service.

Price a little higher than NJ/NY, but not an issue especially since this is a different state and it isn’t to drastic.

Portion size: normal sizes and have family meals and combos.

Naan: really love the texture it reminds of Lahore, taste was overall okay, but could be better but not much of an issue.

Now finally the taste: the food was great we ordered a combo meal, biryani, and some other chicken salan or Karahi I believe. Anyways, the first things we ordered were good but to best honest I’m Pakistani and we would prefer spicy food, however taste was still good and not greesy and oily, next after we ordered the food we told them for the karahi if possible to make it spicy, and guess what we waited a little more longer due to the update and they made me a fresh karahi that was spicy and we all loved it.

Conclusion: loved it but before ordering let them know you want it spicy and will make it spicy just like Lahore taste. Also highly recommend it. A++ service, food quality/presentation and will def be coming back here if...

I have to say after a good recommendation one of my co-workers, I finally give a shot to this place, I have to throw on that this restaurant is a Pakistani approved place by one of my other co-worker. I came with couples of co-workers and had a family-style dinner. The restaurant is located in the city with make parking a little difficult, but the restaurant is pretty big so is not that hard to get a table. They don't serve alcohol or allow it from outside like most of the restaurant in Philly with making it a little turn off but the food makes it worth it.

We order the fried chicken, curry goat, biryani, and some bread.

One of the best combinations of that night was dipping the bread on the curry coat sauce making it very delicious.

The fried chicken had a good seasoning a bit spicy with you could taste it at the end, with it make it unique and very had to resist the amazing flavor, we ended ordering another one, this has to be the most order plate everytime you come here.

The biryani was ok, it had a good taste but not a fan of it on this place the VIP of the night was chicken for sure.

I can see myself coming back to eat more...
