    This biryani was basic, but delicious and satisfying. Although it's not a high bar, this is still probably the best biryani in the city.

    Guelph isn't exactly well known for it's ethnic food. Since moving here from Toronto, I've noticed a depressing lack of south asian and middle eastern food (two of my fav cuisines). I checked out this place with some coworkers on a whim, not expecting much due to my general experiene of ethnic food in Guelph (or lack thereof). I was SUPER excited when I heard the owner tell someone that the daily special today was Biryani. I grew up eating Biryani in Scarborough and it's a comfort food of mine. Not to mention it's (supposed to be) cheap, filling, and super flavourful when done right. My only other experience with Biryani in Guelph was from Diwa, and it was terrible. The Biryani was way overpriced, especially considering it was mostly flavourless. Helmand Kabab only serves Biryani on Wednesdays, because it isn't traditionally an Afghani dish. It's the owner's wife's recipe, and they make it once a week as a special. The biryani was much better than I expected. Granted, it was a more basic version of the dish, but it was definitely delicious enough to make me want to finish it in one sitting; there's definitely enough food for two meals. The price was reasonable ($10), the meal was satisfying, and the owner was extremely kind and helpful. I only give it four stars because my experience is limited to the biryani. But the biryani carries the weight of those 4 stars wonderfully. I would not be shy about saying this is definitely the best biryani available in the city!

    Took too long to get a lamb kabob so tough that I couldn't eat it. Plus, there was no gas at the gas station!?!!

    What a hidden gem! I'm so glad I found this place online while searching for food. We wanted…read moresomething different and since I know falafel is usually vegan, we decided to stop in. The person working was helpful in answering all my questions about which options were vegan. My BF got a bowl with chicken shawarma and all the toppings- he devoured it! Beware, the bowls are HUGE and you will definitely be full after eating them. I ordered the falafel wrap with all the veggies and just hummus (since the other options had dairy in them). We also ordered a side of fries. They were a little salty but we loved the spice on them. Both of our meals were outstanding. Our last day in town we didn't know where to eat so I suggested coming back again. We had another delicious meal cooked to order! I tried the dolmas that time and they were good, but not my favourite. Would definitely stop in again if we're ever in town.

    Very friendly and patient staff. Order at the counter, fair amount of seating inside in this strip…read moremall location. Good falafel wrap with a proper lavash/pita. Lots of condiments to add if you want. Friend who has never had Middle Eastern food tried the shawarma plate but added too much sauce. She didn't like the pita but liked the pita chips so when she asked what the chips were made from I told her from the bread she didn't like. [grin] The price was exceptionally reasonable, and I think this is a good find in Stratford, where things can get really pricey.
