Found this from Google looking for Indian food close to Penn Med Hospital. Ordered the lamb biryani and it was outstanding. Made to order and he asked about how spicy I wanted it. Very friendly gentleman and it was only $8. A real bargain.
I don’t want to get ahead of myself but he has the best halal in the city …everything taste freshly done !!!!!I would spend my last dollar with him
This is the best that I have ever tasted. It was spicy 🌶🥵 just how I like it. I told him that I follow JL on FB and that’s why I came today. I will definitely be back. Thanks for the conversation Nafi. 7/13/22 Went back today and ordered Vegetable Biryani. Delicious 😋 …
Amazing food for amazing prices. First time trying and it’s absolutely wonderful. Definitely coming back next time!
Great food, great prices, great quality. This is very fine Indian cuisine made with high quality ingredients and spices. I’m mostly impressed at how fast the guy cooks, so if you are on your lunch break like I am, it’s great. You can also call ahead and it’s ready when you walk up. Very convenient that they also take credit/debit cards and CashApp and Venmo. I’m a fiend for spice, so I appreciate that the guy doesn’t hold back on the spices for me. Honestly, some of the best Indian food I’ve had since I was in Tamil Nadu.
Mohammed the owner is the nicest guy. Always make it a point to stop for his food whenever I'm in the area. The falafel is awesome and so is the chicken and lamb. I really haven't had a bad dish. He went out of his way to make a fresh batch of rice for us. He accepts all payment forms and even venmo. You can even call ahead and he'll have it ready for you. Great food truck and an even better owners
This Indian food cart is everything! If you love Indian food this is the best place to get it! Love it it’s just so fresh, tastes amazing and they make it according to your spice level. I love spicy food and he made it just perfect! I would recommend this place all time and everytime for quick Indian food!
So far, I’ve tried chicken tikka masala, butter chicken, chicken over rice, and fish over rice. All of these were so delicious!!
Chicken Biryani, without sauce and extra spicy is phenomenal. They use actual green chillies to adjust spice level. The rice is super flavourful and meat is tender. $7.56 total with tax for students, super filling and yum 10/10.
I've been eating from the trucks in this area for 5 years now and Nafi Food Express has become my favorite truck in the area. First, the owners of the truck are particularly friendly and generous to people in this area. Next, I absolutely love their chili chicken over rice. It is extremely flavorful and quite spicy. It's a refreshing and lighter alternative to the heavier foods served by trucks around this area. I can't recommend this dish enough. I also enjoy the $1 naan. I consider it a pleasure to recommend this food truck to people in the area.
