There are also numerous events held here throughout the year, such as ‘Dinner on the Pier’, which is a unique outdoor eating experience. If you’re a foodie you’ll love the wide selection of eateries that call Windsor home. With so much on offer, it can be difficult to know which are the best spots for halal. Scroll below to find out the best halal restaurants in Windsor, Canada.
1. Biryani & Grill
If your taste buds are watering at the thought of something freshly cooked in a family-run restaurant, look no further than Biryani & Grill. This popular Pakistani spot is perfect for dinner.

The prices are excellent and the portion sizes are big. It is worth noting that there are only about 25 seats in the restaurant, so this place is not suitable for large groups.
