    Kulfi Milkshake
    Lydia B.

    Our second time. This time, I want to taste again how good this place is. I brought my eldest this time coz she is another foodie. This place didn't disappoint. The place is cute and clean. The food: The wagyu beef patty is good. My husband ordered the pulled beef in homemade paratha and it is so delicious and really spicy. I ordered the Australian lamb and once again I'm in love with it. Lastly, we each have those delicious drinks that are hard to say but gets into your brain as it is so milky and delicious. Like the Falooda kulfi with rose, pistachio, basil seeds, tapioca and noodles which is every bit worthy to drive all the way from VA. Thanks for the great experience Khokha. And thanks Nydia for making the magic happen.

    Crispy Chicken Paratha Roll
    Latha P.

    Open airy dining hall bright and colorful ambiance Tasty fresh food & quick service This spot checks off all boxes for me . Fluffy fried poori , mild yet flavorful chick peas curry and a lightly sweetened halwa was a hit pair . The fried chicken wrap with a mild Khoka sauce was an explosion in my mouth . I couldn't resist this wrap . It was the marriage of a great crispy fried chicken with a delicious sauce all wrapped up in a paratha bread . A great fast food option the area to try . There is something for everyone. You have chicken, Beef and Egg as protein options , served as a Burger Paratha wrap , sandwich. Wings , Bowl or platter and Poori plate .

    I came to Khokha several times before I began writing reviews and would have given them a 5/5....however service today was beyond poor. First is the obvious excuse they gave for making us wait 45 minutes for their chicken paratha roll. No problem if it was backed up but 10-15 people after my friend who ordered got all sorts of orders delivered to them....some had the chicken paratha roll too. They just gave the excuse without checking the back "they are making the order" how would they know if you didn't ask the back or check the receipts anywhere?? Blatant lie. Turns out they might have forgotten her order and couldn't find our table. Another issue is how they cut the cheese melt. Who cuts it the LONG way? I was embarrassed I recommended this to my friends. Final issue is that their spice levels have changed entirely. Before a three would be intense but I had the four and it was extremely weak... The spice Khokha provided when they first opened made them stand out. I hope they bring it back. The place does have great food, it's amazing. Despite all the problems. The food is King. Spice is something they can bring back but the flavors are authentic and flavorful. No where else will you get the flavors but an establishment needs to have standards of service in other departments.

    Crispy Chicken Burger
    Stania C.

    This was my first time trying Khokha. Khokha is a Pakistani American street style food restaurant and it is zabiha halal. When you first enter the restaurant you can either order at the counter or at the kiosk. I placed my order at the kiosk and took a number and once my food was ready it was brought to my table. I ordered the Crispy Chicken Burger which came with pickles, coleslaw, and their signature sauce. I also got to try a bite of their Wagyu Burger which came with chimichurri, jalapeño aioi and romaine lettuce. Both were super good and super messy. I don't know about ya'll but something about a messy burger hits the spot for me. I also ordered some loaded fries to share. The loaded fries I got this time around was the loaded fries jalapeño smash. All I can say is I definitely threw down. Overall, it was easy to order. The food came out at a reasonable time. My food was nice and hot. The overall appearance of the inside of the restaurant was clean. The only area in the restaurant that needed a little more attention was the restrooms.

    Halwa puri, Smash Burger
    Tiffany C.

    Ordered the smash burger, husband got the chicken sandwich, we shared the Halwa Puri and a small masala fries! All for takeout. Hey! I was hungry haha. It was delicious! The burger was a bit on the saltier side but I would say the star is the Halwa Puri, comes with three dips and 2 of which are a bit spicer and the 3rd one is sweet. The puri was nice and crunchy. I loved the flavor. Great quick service. They have a well run operation of someone at the front, someone to check the orders coming out from the kitchen before they go to the tables or for to go, and the kitchen staff. It's chill, can get kinda crowded. We've been here once before and couldn't find a table but were able to sit at the small bar by the register. Very friendly.

    Definitely a place worth trying! It was so clean and simple inside. Plenty of tables for anyone who comes and eats in. I do wish they had smaller menus by the register to look at while ordering instead of the one big screen to the side. It was cool to see the big screens though with the food they serve. I got the crispy chicken loaded fries hold their special sauce. I enjoyed my dish but did wish the fries were a bit crispier. Towards the end, the fries did get soggy with all the cheese and chutney sauce sitting on them. It did have a nice kick to them still without the special sauce. My two other friends enjoyed their meals as well. For their special sauce you can change the spice level. My friend got the medium level and thought that was very spicy so beware.

    Chatpatay wings
    Aleeza A.

    I ordered the big cheese with pulled beef which was served with a chutney to dip in. I thought it was yummy and so were the wings. However we also ordered a Shikanjabeen (Pakistani lemonade) but it was so small and for $5 we're expecting a little more. The chai was however rlly tasty. The Anda Shami was kind of basic and just wish there was a bit more of a kick to it (just didn't really stand out to us). The overall vibe of the restaurant inside was nice and cute though.

    Lamb Chops

    I typically breakdown each food item I get but will skip this time around because EVERYTHING was fantastic! I was so impressed! The wings, the pulled beef, the chicken sandwhich, the beef burger, the fries- everything was so scrumptious! Chai was perfect. You can also get a slider for smaller portions or a burger for a standard portion. Prices are cheap! Combo options are awesome for those who can't decide. The service was great, they let us bring in a birthday cake for post dinner. The food came out relatively fast! It's a super clean restaurant with cool art work in frames on the wall. Wish I lived closer, I'd definitely come more often. If I am in the area, I'll swing by again. Amazing!

    Anda Shami
    Susie D.

    Khoka in Piscataway, NJ where Pakistani meets American fusion. I did takeout but the ambiance is clean and modern. The service though brief, was very helpful and good. The spicy talk is the food! I ordered the crispy chicken sandwich, loaded fries with pulled beef, anda shami (chicken and chickpea patty with egg omelet), and their smash burger (2 beef patties). This can come with their Khoka sauce which is HOT and yummy. Definitely ask for it on the side. The food was different yet good. I'd order again - just next time I'd get the loaded fries with crispy chicken - pulled beef wasn't my favorite.

    We went to khokha a couple of more times after our initial visit and an update was due. This time around the food was absolutely delicious and I felt the need To bump up my previous 4 star rating to 5 star. We again ordered the following items: Khokha fries 5/5 Nashville hot sandwich 5/5 Pulled beef sandwich. 5/5 Khokha fries were absolutely del ious. Chopped duo jalapeños. Chutney and their sauce with chicken smothered on the French fries. I got the cheese on the side. Nashville chicken sandwich was a classic. Chunky tender juicy chicken breast with the fixings. It was very well seasoned and I could feel the tingling sensation on my lips with the hot level. Pulled beef sandwich was very good. The meat was tender and delicious. And finely chopped with the fixings. Plenty of space to sit and a wonderful experience.

    Veggie burger naked style and masala fries
    Charlene S.

    Been waiting for this place to open and drove past it today. It was open! Lol I've been wondering what type of food or service they were going to offer. Walked in and place is spacious and clean. They serve halal burgers, rolls, fries, shakes. I ordered the veggie burger and masala fries. Veggie burger naked style (meaning the lowest amount of spice). They have 4 different spice levels. Masala fries were good! Liked the seasoning but a bit salty for my tastebuds (I don't eat that much salt). But they were good dunked in ketchup! :) veggie burger naked style was interesting. I like how they placed their own cultural spin on it! It had a mint chutney sauce to it. It was super good! Nice and light and flavorful! Service was great! Host was super friendly and explained to me certain flavors and the level of spicy. I'll have to come back and try their kalifi (spelling?) shake! I've had the ice cream and it was good! It was definitely nice to have something different! Definitely recommend this spot if you want to try an Indian spin on American classics! :)

    This place is good and spacious. Service is fast food is fresh. They have a lot of options. The flavors was not my cup of tea, but thats just personal preference. I would recommend this place.

A few logistical tips: while there is street parking, a public lot is conveniently located right across the street. The dining room is quite intimate with only about ten tables, and since they don't seem to take reservations, I recommend arriving early or being prepared for a wait. If you don't want to wait, they do offer takeout! Another suggestion is to browse their menu online before you arrive, the selection is extensive! We showed up without a game plan and needed several minutes just to decide because there were so many tempting choices! Luckily, our waiter was incredibly patient and helpful, answering every question we had. Once we decided, the real fun began. Every single item, and I'm not exaggerating, was phenomenal! We started with the fresh squeezed orange juice, which was sweet and perfectly portioned, along with a vanilla latte and a cappuccino. Both were classic, rich, and creamy. For the main course, we chose the "Chill + Qill It" Chilaquiles, which featured traditional corn tortillas topped with cotija cheese, avocado, pink sour cream, eggs, and your choice of protein. We also tried the Parkside Classic Sliders; the chicken was exceptionally crispy yet tender and juicy, served with eggs on a brioche bun. We opted to upgrade to the truffle fries, which were delicious! Although our sliders accidentally came with pickles, the staff was so kind and immediately offered to remake the dish or swap out the bun. Finally, we had the Grilled Chicken Egg Ranchero. It was like a breakfast version of nachos, loaded with beans, peppers, onions, an egg, those same crispy tortillas, and more of that signature pink cream! We couldn't leave without satisfying our sweet tooth, so we finished with the Cinnamon Roll French Toast. It tasted exactly like a fresh cinnamon roll, the glaze was incredible, and the bread was perfectly crisp on the outside while remaining fluffy inside. I honestly cannot wait to go back and work my way through the rest of the kitchen's creations. This restaurant is a absolute must-visit for their unique combinations and superb flavors!
