We were thrilled to try their food at their new Ottawa restaurant after living here for a while. We ordered the Beef Nihari, Paya, Haleem, and Beef Bihari Kebab, and each dish was absolutely incredible! My favourite was the smoky, melt-in-your-mouth Beef Bihari Boti Kebab. It was simply unmatched in Ottawa. The service, ambiance, and quality of the food were all top-notch. I hope they receive the recognition they deserve and expand to reach more people who can enjoy this culinary delight. Highly recommended! Will visit again!
