Located on Portage Ave, across the street from the Juniors, Biryani House Ethnic Restaurant opened in early October 2011. I have to say the name is a mouthful! This place serves up a small menu of predominantly Indian dishes in a very small and clean…More »

Been eating here for years...it feels like it's under the radar a little bit as everyone seems to know more about Viva (on the same street). But they've been around for a long time and their food is legit - great flavour, generous portions and decent…More »
