For serious biryani lovers, our Mutton Biryani at Shahi Zaika Restaurant is the one to order. Tender, bone-in mutton is slow-cooked until it falls off the bone, then layered with saffron-kissed basmati rice and whole spices — hearty, halal-friendly comfort food in Calgary NE.
Mutton biryani demands patience, and we give it plenty. The meat is marinated with ginger, garlic, yogurt, and garam masala, then cooked low and slow until beautifully tender before being layered with fragrant basmati rice and steamed dum style.
The result is a deeply savoury, aromatic biryani where every spoonful delivers spice-infused rice and rich, tender mutton. It is a favourite for weekend family dinners and gatherings across Westwinds, Taradale, Falconridge, and Castleridge — order early, it often sells out.

“The mutton biryani is outstanding — the meat was so tender and the rice was full of flavour. Just like the biryani we grew up eating.”
