Biryaniwalla | Indian Cuisine | Niagara Falls

My friend and I visited this restaurant and we loved it so much I wanted to leave a review! It was nearby the train station and one of the few places open on a rainy Sunday. We were lucky it was open and we got to enjoy some of the best fried rice I’ve ever had. They offer very large portions which we saved and enjoyed on the train ride back to Toronto! Even the leftovers were very good. The server was very kind as well and offered us advice for traveling to the falls. Anyone visiting Niagara Falls by the GO train station I highly recommend you give this place a try!

Exceptional Service at Niagara Location!" I usually visit the Toronto location, but this time I decided to try the Niagara location, and I was not disappointed! The experience was fantastic, and Gurdeep's service truly stood out. They were incredibly helpful, ensuring everything was perfect from start to finish. The attention to detail and friendly attitude made this visit memorable. It’s great to see the same high standard of service across locations. Highly recommend the Niagara spot for anyone looking for a great experience!

Terrible Experience – Avoid at All Costs This was by far the worst dining experience I’ve ever had. We were a group of four dining on Christmas night. From the start, it was chaotic. We stood at the entrance for 10 minutes before a staff member finally approached us. She told us to wait outside for 30 minutes because there wasn’t any waiting area available. After the long wait, we were seated, but no one came to take our order for another 10 minutes. When we flagged down a server, we ordered 2 biryanis, 1 paneer curry, and 1 garlic naan. The service after this was disastrous. First, one biryani was brought out after 20 minutes. Ten minutes later, the paneer curry arrived, followed by the garlic naan another 5 minutes later. Despite repeatedly reminding the staff, the second biryani never came until an hour later. It seemed the restaurant prioritized their online orders over customers dining in. The servers and even the manager had no clue what was going on. When we brought up our concerns, the manager said she’d check on it in 5 minutes, but she never returned. One staff member even admitted she worked in the kitchen and didn’t know what was happening with our order. To make matters worse, a table of seven people who came after us finished their meal before we even got all our food. When the last items finally arrived, the curry was cold, and instead of preparing it fresh, they reheated it in the microwave. The staff lacked basic customer service skills, messed up orders repeatedly, and wasted two hours of our time on what was supposed to be a special night. Their excuse was that they were “busy with a lot of orders,” but prioritizing Uber Eats over dine-in customers is unacceptable. This restaurant completely ruined our evening. Due to their delays, we arrived in Toronto two hours late. If I could give zero stars, I would. Stay away from this restaurant.

Loved our visit here. Priya & Jas was warm & welcoming from the beginning:) Will definitely visit again for the food & taste, decent menu. No seafood though. Suggestion: Can have a separate hand wash area or additional washrooms for men and women.

Kinda disappointed with the food, I eat out three meals a day. But food flavours were all the same. Biryani was top notch, as it should be, southern Hyderabadi style. The chilli chicken was more like biryani spices, the mutton curry wasn’t like curry and totally chop masala. No flavour of mutton. The chicken biryani was indeed properly maid, test of the other foods were far from normal food even. Again, mutton wasn’t edible. Just thick vegetarian gravy with mutton pcs, they tried to replace it with malai tikka which decent at best. Really need help with malai and other spices in top. It was probably cooked to 220 degrees when it needed to be 165, with malai base on top and lots is salt was missing. Hope the restaurant picks up its game. The biryani was actually dum and good. The service was excellent (:

I recently tried the biryani at Biryaniwala and was blown away by the rich flavors and authentic taste! The aroma was incredible, and the first bite was love at first taste. The biryani was cooked to perfection, with each grain of rice separate and fluffy. The spices were perfectly balanced, and the flavor was deep and satisfying. If you're a biryani lover like me, you owe it to yourself to try Biryaniwala. The authenticity and quality of their biryani are unmatched. Can't wait to go back and try more!"

The Biryani Wala delivers an outstanding Indian dining experience with delicious flavors and a charming atmosphere. The decor balances traditional Indian touches with a modern feel, creating a warm and inviting space. Their menu shines with flavorful dishes like smoky Tandoori Paneer, creamy Butter Chicken, and, of course, fragrant biryanis that are perfectly spiced and aromatic. The drink selection, including mango lassis and Indian-inspired cocktails, pairs well with the dishes, while desserts like Gulab Jamun add a sweet finish. With attentive service and a beautiful setting, The Biryani Wala is perfect for any occasion. Highly recommended!

I have been looking for an authentic Hyderabad restaurant since a while and I always travel to gta areas for good Hyderabadi authentic biryanis and luckily while exploring I ended up at this restaurant and I was very happy to find this place. I am a local Niagara resident and have tried local restaurants for good authentic biryanis and never found any until I tasted here. Any Hyderabadi will know the original flavour of our biryani and this restaurant gives that authenticity. This is not paid review but deeply from my own experience in tasting the flavours here. The server Priya was very kind and generous and suggested the menu wisely. She knows the exact spice levels of the biryanis they served and the taste palette as she is also from Telugu speaking Indian. Food is very good. Taste is authentic and flavourful. Biryanis are very good. The portion size is very very good. Ambience is decent. Prices are budget friendly. Anyone visiting Niagara region and looking for good authentic biryani and Hyderabad food this is the most recommended place as a local resident.
