Visited the fusion dining place today with a party of 4 , loved the ambiance, food was incredibly good , from the flat breads to little parcels of spicy potato filling . Entrées were even better tender mutton , corn and beef curry . Did not think I could fit in any more food but the dessert was to die for , crispy pasty on the outside with a rose scented filling of custard on the inside . Great place can't wait to go back and try out the food I couldn't sample today.
Wow. You have to love a restaurant with flavours that give you a punch in your tastebuds. Female chef and owner Noureen is cooking the food of a very diverse family that spanned the globe and global flavours are what you will get here. Do not miss any short rib dish, the paratha tacos are crazy great. I love eating all the apps here and cocktails are super cool. Eat, drink and hang in one cool vibe.
Had to find a place that could accommodate a vegan friend and a gluten-free eater. The menu had plenty of options and as someone who could (and did) eat everything, I was absolutely impressed
A buddy and I checked out Rickshaw Bar Saturday evening after the Jays game, and it was undeniably fantastic.
The chef Noureen is exceptionally talented, the effort she puts into the food shows. Absolutely Incredible. The staff were very helpful, our server Kyshid was great, he was very helpful and gave us his personal recommendations.
I strongly suggest the Ismaili Beef Curry (Beef was incredibly tender). They had a great selection of local micro brews. And the prices were very agreeable. Definitely will be back. My new spot to go.
gorgeous food that was simply delicious and the cocktail menu was amazing! definitely going back.
I dined at Rickshaw Bar last night with two friends, and we were so glad we chose Rickshaw as the restaurant to meet at. The cocktails were interesting and delicious, and the food...outstanding! As was the service. We decided to share a variety of dishes. With one of our party being gluten free, we thought we would be choosing from only a few things, but to our delight there were a number of options. I highly recommend the Ismaili Beef Curry. Wow! Noureen came over and spoke with us after dinner, which was a lovely and much appreciated gesture. Oh, and our server (s) were fantastic. Will be recommending Rickshaw Bar to others for sure.
An amazing food eating experience! Might b my favourite place to eat right now! LOVED it, going back for sure and bringing others
Imaginative and tasty South Asian fusion food. Try it!
Excellent food. Flavours are perfectly combined and have the right heat. Great service. Recommend to anyone who appreciates food quality and creativity in a cool, industrial-esque setting. Awesome.
Creative cuisine that is not easily defined; South Asian/Asian fusion. We always go with the Chef's Tasting Menu for the surprise. What's really amazing is that we take the leftovers home and they maintain their taste and texture for the next 24 hours!
My wife and I were fortunate enough to experience the tasting menu paired with Sparkling white wine, and what an amazing experience it was! Each course was beautifully balanced with such depth that each bite was a new taste as you built off the last flavour. The staff are incredibly attentive and thoughtful, clearing each course at just the right time to keep the meal moving without any lag.
The plating was beautiful with each dish lovingly assembled to highlight the strengths of the food and seemed to pull elements from the ingredients and from the countries/cultures that inspired the dishes. Without a doubt, this was one of the most relaxed, rewarding, and deliciously outstanding meals we have had. No hesitation recommending this gem to anyone!

The Rickshaw bar is a small tapas style type of restaurant that serves food of pan-asian fusion style - but with a heavy Indian influence. The decor is dark, intimate, industrial yet chic.
I came here with 3 other friends and was advised that it would take 1 small and 1 big plate for each person to get full, which isn't too bad considering the prices are not too bad. It worked well for us since all the items on the menu sounded really interesting and yummy.
When the dishes came, a friend commented that they were a bit on the small side, and I tend to agree - each of us gets to have a bite or two of the items and that's about it. The dishes themselves tastes fantastic, so that kind of made up for the portion size.
We shared:
Roasted Caulifolower - nothing special, good if you want veggies
Sesame brussels sprouts - taste good
Chicken 685 - the breading is a bit on the thick side but good flavor. There are two thighs in total.
Lamb Mishkaki - comes with naan and I have to say that the mint chimmichurri was great with it.
Naan Kebab flatbread - it is kind of like a pizza, and the beef, jalenpeno and yogurt combination was really tasty. Everyone liked it.
Ismaili Beef curry - goes very nicely with accompanied rice. I wished there was more of it.
Shrimp Makai curry - the shrimp was very fresh and the dish tasted great.
Overall, I think Rickshaw Bar has some really great things going for it. If they change up the menu every now and then, and perhaps offer bigger portion size options, I think this could become a regular place for me.

Food was so delicious with strong, bold flavors. While there is a lot of curry dishes but they all tasted different as they aimed to imitate curry from different regions of south asia. Small portions though but so so yummy. With all the sauce you should definitely get extra naan or rice to sop it up
LOVED THIS PLACE! Came here for a friend's birthday gathering in the middle of the week and everyone enjoyed the whole experience. Service was top notch, our server took the time to explain dishes and feature menu items. Throughout the evening he was also very tentative with refilling beverages and bringing and removing dinnerware during course changes. We were a party of about 10, and I believe he was the only server working that evening. The food had great balance in flavours and textures (must try: tea leaf salad). The cocktails were also a hit just as much as the food (my favourite: street vendor's chaat). Drinks were mixed well, not overly boozy or lacking booze. A great place to try as well as return to.
Not a big space but an intimate space. A space with a chill minimalist vibe. A place where you are greeted each and every time by a big smile and next up are some pretty awesome cocktails. With one of these in hand the hard part begins. The menu arrives and everything looks insanely good and it is. Ask your server for a bit of help making sure you get a great balance of flavours. Personally I like to grab a ton of Chef Owner Noureen’s nibbles and then the whole fish. Do not miss the fish. Her flavours are bright and diversified coming from India, Pakistan, Africa and Asia. I have yet to manage to grab dessert but next time and that will be very soon.

Really good service. Nice atmosphere, playing old school hip hop the night I went. Only got a taco and some beers. So the taco was fantastic and the beers which I think was barking squirrel, was good too. Nice layout to the place with some cool decor. Recommend.
Foodie beware, I just left a 5 star after only the appetizer! I have never enjoyed brussel sprouts, nor did I consider them a good food. This restaurant has changed my bias against brussel sprouts into a desire to cook my own that don't suck! Thank you Rickshaw for the insperational cuisine! Oh wow:-O I had to add to my post, this place is great and my plate is empty. We had a friend chicken in amazing sauce, just wow and thank you!!
Go for a date, or take the clients out. Clean spacious decor. A bar with lots of room. Relaxing ambient music. Dishes are small, simple and very delicious. Staff are friendly and helpful. I would certainly go back for the beef curry.
