Faisal Kabab Hut

My work colleague introduced me to this restaurant today for lunch. I don’t usually drift this far away from my normal culinary favourites. But the staff at Faisal’s was phenomenal and the food was sooooo delicious. We had curry chicken and rice. The sauce was full of flavour and just the right amount of curry spice. It was so amazing that we had to use the bread to finish every ounce of sauce! One of the best lunches I’ve had recently. If you’re in the neighbourhood, I definitely recommend this small, quaint spot. You won’t be disappointed!

The mixed barbecue platter was outstanding! You get chicken tikka, fish tikka, and seekh kabob. Honestly they were all excellent - beautifully marinated and perfectly cooked and juicy. I slept in a nihari was really good much better than I've had many other places. I would have liked this the meat was a little bit more tender but still it was really well cooked. Light and fluffy naans - no need to say more.

This establishment is underrated immensely. It is damn good. MashAllah!! I have personally tried the Afghani Tikka which melted in our mouths. Furthermore, the chicken biryani was really well made also, the only thing I would change is add more salt to it. However, my wife told me the raita/spicy yoghurt they give with it, when eaten together it solves the salt point. So there's that. I also tried their lunch special wherein I tried the Beef Shish Kebab, which was phenomenal, instead of rice, I got another naan, and then proceeded to make a naan kabab roll out of it with the salad and the raita/yoghurt as a sauce. SO GOOD MASHALLAH. One lunch special is good for two people to say the least, very fulfilling and top notch taste. They serve hand slaughtered halal meat/chicken here, which I confirmed on the phone and in person with the person behind the counter. The kababs are made on a sizzling plate fresh, which adds to the aroma and they come in piping hot. They are sat on a bed of caramelized onions. so so so worth it. Next time, I visit Calgary this is my go to place for at the least lunch. Please do come here and try it out, you will thank me. =]

This is hole in the wall type restaurant. Excellent food - the BBQ platter and kabab are must try. The curry and butter chicken are really good. Not too salty or greasy. The naan bread is good but not the best. Coming from a neighborhood with lots of Indian restaurants, totally surprised and blown away with how good the food is! The price is also very reasonable and food service pretty fast. It seems the restaurant was under-staff and one non-kitchen staff has to do everything.

Delicious food. Consistently tastes the same over many years. The restaurant is small, so we prefer take out or delivery. They never disappoint. We have been eating there for the past 10 years. It's one of our favorite restaurants. It's really good value for money, and food quantity is also very good.
