These guys have breakfast until 4pm! A must-visit during Eid. However, be prepared to wait an hour outside because they’ll definitely be at capacity. Once you’re inside though, the food, service, and ambience is top notch!

Food was amazingly fresh! Biryani was a bit spicy for they kids, but the adults loved it! Naan were the best we’ve had so far! Always a treat coming to Raja foods! Gentlemen at the counter (I assume owner?!) recommended trying the breakfast, will definitely be back to try that one time! Thanks!

We had kadai chicken and garlic naan. Very delicious and fresh. Highly recommended. Gajar ka halwa was also good. Taste of Pakistan.

Decided to go here for lunch with a friend. The menu is extremely good - lots of variety and reasonable prices. We went with meat samosa chaat, mixed platter which was boneless chicken and beef kebob as well as butter chicken with naan. I found the food ordinary, nothing extremely tasty or that I would run back for. The butter chicken was overly sweet and had absolutely no spices or chilli to it. The chicken and beef kebob were nice but again I wish they had some more spices and chilli to increase the taste. The samosa chaat was nice - it had some heat to it.

We were on trip to Edmonton/ Calgary/Banff from Toronto, had lunch at Raja Foods on my friend’s recommendation and found the food amazing. Price was reasonable, food was delicious and service was good. Highly recommended for my GTA fellows if go on trip to Edmonton to add in their to do list.

The food was quite good. The service was slow and we had to flag down servers several times for attention. One of us got our food way before the others which is not ideal. The kebab in the mixed grill platter was a bit on the chewy side. I would skip the beef Karahi next time at it lacked flavor. Overall not bad. We ordered the mixed grill platter, garlic naan, mango Lassi (this was very tasty), salty Lassi, beef Karahi, chicken bbq platter.
