Wah-Gi-Wah

Decent Pakistani food. Portions are probably generous.

I got there towards the end of the day and a likely Pakistani family was wrapping up a meal. When eating ethnic foods (something I try and do as much as the wallet will let me) it is always a good sign if a place has that ethnic group as a clientele.
I placed a to go order, the wife got a chicken curry with naan and I got a combination platter and added an order of naan on the side. We also both got rice pudding.
It took a little bit of time but they were friendly even though I was the last customer. I asked for a to go menu but they don’t have one, and directed me to their website.
When I got it home and unpacked the wife didn’t get chicken curry, but some other kind of curry dish — probably goat, with bones in it. The wife still found it tasty though next time she gets a curry from there she will get rice instead of naan to soak up all of the extra curry sauce.
The naan was thicker than most. I wish they served garlic naan which is way better than the plain variety, and it could have been more buttery.
My entrée was pretty good with a lot of basmati rice as the bed alongside a sausage-​like kebab and some stray pieces of chicken. I would have preferred more chicken and less rice but it was late. It was still filling.
The rice pudding was fantastic, just the right consistency and flavor. Honestly it would be worth it just to drop by and pick that up.
We would eat there again in spite of some of the problems, especially since some of them may have been due to the lateness of our order.

The best Pakistani restaurant in philly. Order their charga, it’s SO GOOD! Their naan is pretty amazing also. The only bad part is the wait here, sometimes (especially on the weekends) they’re very busy and the wait time is insane!

This place is horrible for a few reasons. First of all their food isn’t so tasty and they charge you different prices from the menu. The kabab needed better seasoning and the samosas were off. The Naan was decent at best. The waiter seemed like he was disinterested with my family and I. Also the service was quite spotty. Now the main reason we came here was because this place served halal food and seemed okay. I do not recommend this restaurant to anyone honestly.

Love three dishes. Samosa chat appetizer and chicken charga and nahari are to die for !!!

Their chagha chicken and keema naan are the best only problem is they take forever. Slow service!

Great food. Excellent service. Tawa Chicken with Roghan Naan, Haleem and Samosa Chaat are the favorites

Best Pakistani Food in Philly! I love this place! Try the Pakistani style fried chicken, veggie samosas and sesame naan!
The whole staff and owners are very sweet as well!

Their chicken charga is great. Other selected items like keema nan are good as well. Do not get the biriyani under any circumstances though!

Worst food experience ever, if there were 0 stars I would give it 0. Takes a log time to get your food, they make you wait and then tell you food is not available. I don’t understand why people go to this place.

The worst food had in life when I say to one of the waiters cashier or whatever he is. Goat curry is not wall cook has no salt in there he just give me smile seem like he doesn’t care well the bottom line I never ever come back in this restaurant

This is by far the best Pakistani/​Indian restaurant I have been to in Philadelphia. The food has been consistently delicious and well prepared. If you’re craving a piece of home, then this is the place to go to. The chicken tikka and chapli kababs are choice, and might even be better than what I’ve had in Pakistan.
If you’re in town and looking for some delicious and flavorful food, this is the place to be.

I like the foods here but the service is really really really really slow I’m so disappointed

Tried the chicken churgah. Very bland and dry. Actually cold as well. Naan do not have good texture either. Never returned after my initial experience.
Customer service is attentive but food is almost average

The food is horrible We ordered the Chicken Chargha and it was not good at all (no taste). Then we came to know that their main chef was gone. I am definitely not going back

I always order Tandoori! It’s awesome! I really like it and it tastes good! I ordered once naan and chicken curry, and I liked it too! Because the food is freash and cooked once ordered, it takes time! But I’m happy since it’s freash! Definitely, will come again!

Service sucked major nutz. Food is not fresh. The restaurant was dead. Expensive. Can’t get worse

Terrible service and terrible food. The only thing good about this place is its unusual not traditional tandoori roti. Other than that its a low grade Indian food and doesn’t deserve to be called so. Also I ordered kabobs (alright and samosas (terrible) and brains which was sub par. The service was terrible as I asked for water 3 times and he ignored me.
Never coming back again!

I was going to give them the benefit of the doubt and leave my review at three stars, but after this past visit, I’d have to give this place a solid one star. To start out, I understand that the winter is pretty unforgiving right now and heating bills can add up, but for a restaurant with very large dine-​in space, it seems like something is off when customers are shivering while eating their food, all bundled up in their puffy winter coats, all while sitting INSIDE the restaurant. I don’t really need an extremely comfortable dining experience, but I did not pay for an uncomfortable one.
This time, we ordered Aloo Keema and a chicken and chickpea curry dish.
The Aloo Keema was not only cold, but was also overly salty and had the texture and dullness of leftovers. This dish falls solidly in the «zombified» category. It is clear that the life had been sucked out of this dish over and over through vigorous stirring and numerous trips between the fridge and the microwave. I now see what Rizwan A. meant by «corner-​cutting» in his review of this place.
The chicken chickpea curry dish was hot when it came out, but this was probably because it was drenched in piping hot chili oil. There was a serious lack of flavor in the chicken, the chickpeas, as well as the sauce. I might come back again, but only for the sake of convenience. There are places within blocks that serve better and fresher versions of this food.
P. S. Thanks to Babak S. for posting photos of the food menu. I tried to find the menu on their website, but soon realized that their entire website is filled with ads (e.g. French Food Menu, Applebees Restaurant Menu…) and no actual food menu (that I could see as of today). If you click on these ads, they get something like $ 0.45 per click. The abundance and pervasiveness of ads suggests that whoever designed this website might be hoping that consumers might accidentally click on these ad links while searching for the food menu on this restaurant’s website.

Wah-​Gi-​Wah is amazing! The food I had was delicious! We ordered the allo palak, allo keema, Lahori Chargha (chicken), naan and keema naan. Reading other negative reviews it sounds like people made the mistake of ordering stereotypical Indian food here (opposed to the Pakistani dishes). The Pakistani food was so good! The chicken was fried whole and was very moist and flavorful on the inside. But my personal favorite was the the allo keema. They use ground goat for the keema and it is fantastic! I cannot wait to go back and eat their again.
Oh yea! Also, I hear they can prepare a whole leg of goat dish made to order (Lahori Style Raan Roast). Just give them a few hours notice and they can make it. I need to try that one day!
