Rickshaw indian takeaway in Walsall

We love this place. We do wait over 60 min for delivery and when I do chase the staff are lovely. Were local and probably order twice a month. Food is beautiful!

Online order for 7:30pm and arrived outside and parked my car to collect. Kept waiting for 37minutes. Made our way home. Parking notice arrived today with a fine for £85. This is a honey trap and clearly designed to rake in profits from arbitrary fines. Threats if not paid will be sent to debt collection agency. Many other people have been subjected to this unfair practice.

delivery times are just too long and not what you are told when you place the order

We've being using the Rickshaw for almost 2 years and every delivery we receive takes about 2.5 hours which is a long time but the food is very good. Today we ordered at 6pm and received it at 10.10pm. We called twice and was told 20 mins each time, still we waited. Finally 4 hours later it arrived. No food is worth waiting that long so we will be looking for a new restaurant from now on.

Such a shame. Great food, but we've now been let down on two separate occations. This evening, we have been waiting almost 3 hours for our delivery. Every time we have called to chase its "give us another 10 minutes" how long are we going to play this game? I absolutely understand and sympothise that there are busy nights, but there needs to be an automated warning to let people know of wait times so that they can go elsewhere to lighten the load. And whenever customers call to chase there needs to be some honesy. Otherwise it is a complete waste of everybody's time.

This is the worst Indian takeaway restaurant I have ever been too....ordered at 17.54, phoned them 5 times when I actually got through following ordering to find out where the curry was, got fobbed off every time we rang, was answered on the 4th time, told he would check, phone was left on the side while he dealt with other customers for 14 minutes, 2 cancelled while I was waiting.. ..I put the phone down and rang back, got through and they tried to fob me off again so cancelled the order at 20.45.....over 2.5 hours later....absolutely rubbish, avoid....we will never use them again

Waited 3 1/2 hours for a delivery kept being told it was 10 minutes away … absolute joke.. never even turned up but was constantly told it’s on the way

Food is always good and staff are so so friendly

Ordered for delivery, arrived 30 minutes with order and food was lovely, had the tandoori chicken balti and it was great. Will use again for sure.

Tbus is a takout restaurant only, nice food

Been using here for well over 10 years! No loyalty to customers what so ever! Although the food is great the wait time is awful and we even collected to wait 40 minutes in the shop to then receive a parking fine from outside the shop! Not bothered what so ever in losing a customer! No offer of any compensation to put to wards the fine! I suggest you have delivery or your curry will end up costing you almost £100! Awful attitude will never use here again!! 🖕🏻

Husband ordered, when arrived told they didn’t have his order even though had proof on his phone he’d spoken to them for1.5 mins to place his order. They said wouldn’t have taken order for chapatti as they weren’t cooking them, so basically called him a liar! When he asked how long would his order take, 1.5 hrs!! No apology or offer to push through. Shame cause always enjoyed food but another one crossed off our list to use. Had Chinese from jasmine house next door instead.

Placed order over phone for 730pm to collect. Went to collect told no order placed even though had proof of phone call on phone. No apology or offer to push order through, just told 1.5 hr wait. Shame have always enjoyed our takeaway from here but will not use again. Basically called us liars saying hadn’t placed an order. Phone call records do not lie!!

Food ordered at 6.27pm After 3 phone calls it was delivered at 9.30 pm with items missing If it hadn’t been paid for when ordering it would of been cancelled Very disappointing

Took over 2 and a half hours for delivery. Phoned twice, not once did I have an apology. Maybe they should think about getting existing orders out before taking any more, or give a realistic timeline to anyone who orders. Probably won't bother ordering again from them. Disappointing.

Always have a good curry from Rickshaw. Fully recommend and one of best in Streetly.

Never fails to provide excellent curries. We eat a lot of Indians and always rate Rickshaw’s amongst the top.

Ordered a takeaway Sunday 30th July 2023 absolutely superb service 1st class food 1st class price great BENWE LIV IN STREETLY THIS IS A GREAT TAKEAWAY ALWAYS CONSISTENTLY GOOD WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND 😀

Best local takeaway. Would highly recommend.

We've had a few takeaways from here but the one we had last night was terrible. All I had was Veg Samosa and onion bhajee. Both of these were very doughie no crisp batter on either . Samosa hardly looked cooked. My husband and son had a chicken tikka and apparently it hardly resembled chicken or didn't even taste like chicken. We all have upset stomachs this morning

Been ordering with family pretty much weekly my whole life and no other Indian takeaway compares!!

Had the best Chicken Korma I've had in along time from here. Large portion & very tasty.

The food is good but the inconsistent deliveries really let this place down.For 2 simple meals it took over 2.5 hours to deliver with no calls stating this even though we accepted it would take 1.5 hours originally. It probably would have have been longer had we not chased. Really poor.

FOOD IS NOT FRESH AND STAFF INCLUDING THE MANAGER IS RUDE. FOUND A HAIR IN OUR CURRY AND THEY SAID IT WAS NOT FROM THERE SHOP. DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE.

We've been regularly ordering from here since I was a child and it's still my favourite takeaway option

Driven past Rickshaw many times but finally decided to drop in and grab a takeaway. So many years wasted... The Chicken Tawa is one of the best curries I've had. Highly recommended.

amazing food & fresh prawns. one of my favourite places

Amazing food and excellent allergen labelling made it very easy to order a vegan curry 👌🏻

Best curry we've ever had. We've moved to Lincolnshire but still drive back regularly to see friends and family, and will be collecting their delicious passandas to take back with us and freeze till the next visit. Never been able to find a better curry than at the Rickshaw. Wish we still lived nearby just to still be able to order a takeaway!

We lived in Streetly for 30 years and always bought our takeaways at the Rickshaw and always to the highest standard, we moved to the East coast of Scotland 3 years ago and couldn't get a curry anywhere near, so when we drove back to Streetly we bought some curries from the Rickshaw to take back to Scotland, we gave some of our neighbours a taste and they asked me next time to bring them some back, I'm now on the 3rd trip and just brought back over 30 curries, in fact me car has been nicknamed the Tesla Tandoori. I take the best Scottish Smoked salmon back to Streetly so I don't drive to England with an empty boot.

Ordered a chicken biryani which was tasteless. It was chicken and boiled rice, no flavours whatsoever! The vegetable sauce to go with it was ok.

Food is always delicious, always need to wait but for me that tells me the food is freshly cooked!

Have been going here since it opened many years ago. it’s very good unfortunately having moved away from the area it’s always my go to when visiting family. I struggle to find anywhere that comes close to rickshaw near to where I live. I’d give the place 10 out of 10. Prices are more than fair and delivery drivers have always been friendly and polite. ( Mr Dyson )

Takeaway delivered 50 minutes late, luke warm and missing a main meal. Phoned up to complain. They said they'd phone back (presumably because they were too busy) but they never did. Very poor.

We order regularly online,everytime its 40 - 60 minutes late rarely with an apology,tonight 45 mins late, poppadoms so broken they were bits,and onion salad missing,the most annoying part though is when you call to find out where the food is and they ask you to hang on while they answer the phone and take another order

I ordered a plain curry sauce to have with sides as Im a vegetarian.I was eating the leftovers today and I found small traces of chicken in the sauce! It’s disgusting and made me feel ill! I don’t know if they scooped some sauce out of a chicken curry or cooked it in the same pan but it should be separate.

Best curry around, I live in Sheffield and when I come to Birmingham to visit friends I always make sure I get a rickshaws curry. If I could give it more than 5 star I would.

Great food one of the best I have tried

Ordered two main meals with Nan breads, one was a chicken meal other was a lamb meal, chicken meal was ok, lamb meal was like chewing rubber, nice sauce but ruined by the tough, hard and tasteless meat

Excellent tasty food and great service

Best take away around! Consistently good. 🌶 🌶 🌶 🌶 🌶 app also makes ordering and pre-ordering quick and easy

Tried Rickshaw for the first time yesterday. They state Indian Take Away, but it is actually Bangladeshi cuisine. Different taste to Indian food. Had the Chicken Pakora which was the one stand out dish - would order it again. Chicken Biryan was very bland. No spices or flavour. Veg Samosa which was ok, bit soggy. Chicken Chaat was a portion of Jalfrezi type dish on a Poori / Batoora. Wasn't expecting that 👎. The mint sauce was made with sweet yoghurt - again, wasn't expecting that 👎. Halal food.

Waited nearly 2 hours, food was foul, worst take away ever, waste of money, went straight into bin, don’t order

Me and my family have been ordering from Rickshaw’s since I can remember. We’ve tried many other places as a one off but always come back to this!! I have a cousin who drives for half an hour just to get Rickshaw’s because nowhere else compares!! Ticks all the boxes for a perfect takeaway :)

The food from Rickshaw is first class. We have been customers for many years. The staff are helpful and polite. Good value for money. Highly recommended.

Don't live in the area anymore, but whenever I'm back to see the parents this place is a must. One of the best Curry's I've ever had outside of India. Old man had been coming since it opened in 95 and won't ever stop.

Order 2 hours before you want your food, not one for normally putting reviews especially negative one's but last 3 times I've ordered it's been at least an hour late sometimes 2 hours, food is very nice but they don't even communicate to say their running late until you call to ask where your meal is!!!

Dreadful service. Order food at 6:20 for delivery. Two phone calls later, it finally arrived at 9:05. No apologies!

Ordered Tawa chicken, kebabs and Nan bread. The food was very nice, arrived hot, chicken was tender and kebabs very tasty.

The food was really good. Ordered online, took 2 1/2 hours, even after phone calls to find out where the order was!!

Had a few from here. But last 1 really was the last. Doubled with stomach cramps both me and hubby. You can imagine what else. Called them to complain but they just didn't care.

Ordered click and collect, arrived at the given time and ended up stood around waiting for another 20 minutes! Otherwise really good food, but they need to sort out their service!

Very impressed. Ordered on line and paid on line and collected it. Was recommended by a friend and was full of flavour and just the right about if spices etc. A good varied menu. The shop looked very clean too and the young guy who served me very friendly . Will definitely use them again. Normally prefer to eat out but although we are unable to now, may have to stay in more and do take away

Amazing food, flavours and meat very very good!! Would defo recommend and we’re curry mad! Glad we’ve found a takeaway so good! Will defo reorder 🤩

Catered for a party excellent food and delivered on time

King prawn Bangladesh was delicious.

Guaranteeeed good food, the guys who work their are top class. You can see your food cooked. They cook the best veg balti in the area and the madrass is a madrass with flavour and heat.

Well decided to have a home delivery. Never again!!!! Took 2 hours and the food was medioca. Such a shame. Usually quite good. Had a pashwari naan and it was like a lump of dough. Maybe they had forgot about the order. Rang twice.

Great takeaway veg biriyani full veg. If I could fault anything and it is not a fault bit mean on the onion salad but just order extra one not a problem ... Will return.

Fantastic freshly cooked food and efficient service

Food is cooked fresh and kitchen can be viewed through window. We have a coeliac who loves their byriani!

We frequently have takeaway from here - the food is exemplary. We have occasionally collected our food but 99% of the time we have it delivered which is mostly on time.

First time having a takeaway from Rickshaw. Was not disappointed. Drove by the shop a few times and thought it looked really clean, vibrant and somewhat different.. All of that can be said for their food too. After ordering online we were given a reasonable delivery time and the meal even came a little earlier than expected which was a nice change. The meal itself was presented perfectly, the starters in cardboard trays, opposed to plastics, it was fresh, no grease and so tasty. The mains equally as good. Spicy, but not overbearing and again really flavoursome. They even gave us a complimentary rice and extra poppadoms which was a nice surprise. The delivery man was really pleasant and after ringing back to thank them for a great meal the chap on the phone was great too. There are so many mediocre Indian takeaways around these days, credit where it’s due this is up there with the best. Will definitely be back for more. Thank you.✌️

No More Home Delivery changed mile radius in last few weeks after having home delivery 2 weeks ago !

We eat from here every Saturday the food is excellent it's reasonably priced plenty of dishes to choose from the staff are friendly and helpful. The food is very tasty and superbly cooked well recommended.

Excellent food everytime. Wouldn't go anywhere else 👍

Had a lovely conversation last night asking if they could prepare something vegan for me. The chap I spoke to was very helpful. Told me what was in their normal base and offered to make one suitable for me. When the meal arrived I had been given a separate bag and in it was my order plus I’d been given complimentary poppadoms and onion salad which I hadn’t been expecting. The food was lovely and I really appreciated the ease at which I had been accommodated. Thank you very much.

Better than my local, these guys make the best saag paneer. They’ve got the magic touch on this one. Great takeaway. Friendly service and a spotlessly clean front of house.

Ordered for 1st time, me and my m8 fishing on our local syndicate lake and had food delivered to us. 😁Friendly helpful staff and lovely food, definitely ordering again.👍

Good quality, flavours were good, little short on the quantity of meat

Been coming here for years and I don’t think we have ever had a bad curry. It’s a takeaway only. Always busy (meaning the wait for a phone order can be up to an hour) but it’s always worth the wait. I do think they either expanded elsewhere or sold the business a few years ago but the service remains the same even though some of the faces have changed.

The food used to be brilliant but it's gone downhill over the last couple of years which is a real shame. The staff are always helpful. The rice was ropey for a while, but has got better. Unfortunately there have been too many errors in recent times and the food has not been as consistent as it used to be. When it's good it's great, but it used to be good all the time, now its not.

Great food very tasty and good portions great staff very friendly local to Streetly but parking can be abit tight

Ordered from here four times twice it's been the best curry we've ever. Twice it's been binned.

Fantastic food... best Jalfrezi I've ever had. Side dishes were superb!... definitely ordering from them again...

Food is always fantastic, great customer service and delievered in good time. The best Indian in Streetly.

The food is always nice, never an issue there. Occasionally they struggle to keep up with demand on a busy weekend - leading to excessive waiting times over what's promised upon order.

Nov 2015: Decided to try this place as it's quite near and also delivers ( despite the fact that one review talked about them getting the order wrong and being slow) so decided to collect for the first meal. Ordered the food by phone and said that it was my first time using them. Advised of a 50 minute delay. Arrived 50 minutes later. When I tried to pay, the man announced that there was no card reader. When I pointed out that this was unusual and that it would've been helpful if he had warned me on the phone , particularly since I said it was my first time using them he just ignored my comment and no apology offered. Suggested I should go to a local cash dispenser to get some money out. Waited another 15 minutes until my name called. Took the food home. One of the naans was missing. Popadoms were nice but onions only roughly chopped so too big to easily eat. Cream yoghurt sauce bland and artificial tasting. We had all ordered chicken tikka in various sauces but the chicken was white with no appropriate tikka colour nor obviously flavour either. Curries were generally too spicy for us, despite us being regular curry eaters in Birmingham. Overall generally disappointing meal. We will stick with Shaban in Boldmere High Street which is consistently excellent even though it doesn't deliver - it's worth the journey though!

Always great quality- just can't find their menu anywhere!

My take away meal was horrible. The onions with papadoms were sharp and tasted weird. The tandoori mixed grill was undercooked and the lamb pieces too tough to eat. The chicken tikka balti was not like a traditional balti. It tasted like a chicken korma with raw onions

Would have to say one of the best indian takeaways i have ever had food is always great kitchen is spotless ans u can watch ur food being cooked
