Bilal’s Kabob House - Ottawa, Ontario

I stayed in Ottawa for two months and this restaurant has become by far my favorite in the area. The first thing you notice is that the chef is very friendly and welcoming. If you order any of the lamb dish, he will proudly tell you that you are served ... fresh local lamb and not frozen New Zeland lamb. Not sure what to eat? If you don't mind a dish that uses quite a bit of oil, I recommend the lamb karayi which at the end of the meal you will be cleaning the plate with your naan bread (I had this twice and both time I forget to take a picture). As for appetizer, I recommend the chicken tikka rolls. The attached picture is what you would get for an order of the lamb shank with the tikka roll. I will definitely eat there on my next visit to Ottawa and hopefully remind myself to take a picture before eating. Read more

I went to eat here tonight. My spouse and I wanted to experience something new and were pleasantly surprised! Everything was cooked fresh and well seasoned. I had chicken and my partner had beef- both were well done. We had their ice cream and a sort of rice pudding. I ... would recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants to experience new flavours and culture! Great service too! Thank you :) Read more

Staff is also very friendly, delivery is fast, and store is neat and clean. I would Rate ... it 10 STARS! Read more

We have tried several Afghan style restaurants in Ottawa, and this has to be the best by far. Not only it serves delicious Afghan food with generous helpings, but it is also unmatched by the excellent service and hospitality offered by the owner and his son. We have ... been to the restaurant several times, and we have always had an excellent experience. Our favorites are Shami Kabab, Karayi Kabab and the Eggplant dishes. We highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants to try a unique Afghan food experience. You will not be disappointed. Read more

Tiny quiet place at dinner time. Fantastic food. Their kabab is phenomenal.
