Lamb yakhni pulao Net +1

“Lamb Yakhni Pulao : The portion size is generous and the dish is nicely prepared, but it was extremely spicy 🌶️. I consider myself someone who enjoys spicy food, yet this was honestly too much for me to handle. Hardcore spice lovers might enjoy it 🥵🔥, but unfortunately I couldn’t fully enjoy it.”

Mixed feedback

“But the true showstopper was the Lamb Afghani Karahi—tender, melt-in-the-mouth lamb pieces steeped in a velvety, aromatic curry that’s both comforting and indulgent. It’s the kind of dish that makes you pause and appreciate every bite.”

What to Avoid (2)

Food 2

Peshawari haneeth Net −1

“After a 45-minute wait, we ordered the highly recommended Peshawari Haneeth. Unfortunately, the dish was an unusual combination of extremely spicy and sweet flavours simultaneously, which made it very difficult to enjoy. We found it largely inedible.”
Shank karahi Net −1

“🍖 Shank Karahi – This was extremely expensive (AED 140) and not really worth it. The taste was just average, and unfortunately, there was a slight smell which made it less enjoyable.”

The Bottom Line

Rasha Kana is a compact restaurant in International City serving Pakistani, Peshawari and Afghani food, with the strongest feedback centred on hearty meat dishes. The menu is a good fit if you want to order Namkeen Karahi with lamb shank, Chicken Shinwari Karahi, Chapli Kebab or Patta Tikka, then use Peshawari naan or khameeri roti to scoop up the gravies. Several reviews describe the lamb shank as tender enough to fall off the bone, while Chapli Kebab ranges from crisp and juicy to dry in less successful visits.

Portions are often generous: one reviewer said half a karahi could feed two people alongside other dishes. The room has a warm, traditional Peshawari feel and works for casual dinners with friends or family, but it is small, with no separate family room mentioned and limited, sometimes uncomfortable seating. Plan around the practical drawbacks.

Weekend and after-7pm visits can bring long queues, while parking is difficult; booking ahead or arriving early is the safer approach. Food can also be very spicy, so ask about heat if needed. Prices are not consistently viewed as economical, and diners advise reading the menu carefully before accepting recommendations or ordering large quantities.
