Mirchi is awesome. Prices are reasonable. Usually I order takeout but the one time I dined in the service was fantastic.

Good flavours but meat was overcooked. I will come back hoping that the next visit will be better

Mirchi is one of the few restaurants in the city offering Pakistani Cuisine. The BBQ section is an area of strength. This restaurant is primarily set for takeout, and has just three tables for those wanting to dine in. read more

This place is a dump with slimy bowls of thin curry. I have never been here when the food wasn't 8 hours old, took forever to heat up, and didn't have enormous spots of grease floating in it. Awful place. Not even inexpensive. Learn how to cook your own curry or go somewhere else. read more

This is one Restaurant that we liked every single dish that we ordered... Goat chops are great and bbq platter is also awesome....

I had heard so much about this place from Indian friends but I was very disappointed. I ordered the chef's special which was a goat curry with rice and salad. The salad was iceberg lettuce that was not fresh and an off tasting yogurt dressing. The goat was delicious but I got 3 very small (less than an inch each) pieces of goat meat (one with a bone which I would expect with a good goat curry). This was $15 for lunch not well spent. My colleagues had the butter chicken which was not much better. Same story of great sauce but very little chicken. I won't be coming back read more

Went in for late lunch and was so pleased I ordered a more to take home for dinner. Butter chicken was the best I've had in ages, garlic naan was large and delicious. The rice was cooked perfect. The portions were very generous and if I lived here I'd eat it every week. Would have been 5 stars if the waiter would have came back just a bit sooner to check on me and offer my bill but not a big deal. read more

Great food and service, always! Just wish they would change up the menu, its been the same for ages. read more

Avoid this restaurant at all costs!. Not worth your time, money or toilet paper!. I got extremely sick from the uncooked food. about $15 for 5pieces of chicken in the butterchicken bowl & about a gallon of sauce to hide the 5 small pieces of chicken. they also always close weirdest times... 1 day they are open the next they aren't... then next close early then closed again! Impossible to keep up with schedule. So if you live far from this place MAKE SURE TO CALL AHEAD TO SEE IF THEY ARE OPEN.... even if it's peak time where everywhere is open without a doubt... still call because it's a 90% chance they closed. read more

I bought butter chicken and chicken Biryani to go. The butter chicken quantity was significantly less than it used to be. The chicken Biryani smells bad and it shouldn't be served to animals, let alone humans. If this was reported, it would have led to closure of the restaurant. Unfortunately, I live far away from the restaurant and chose not to take it back. I used to be a regular at this restaurant, but not anymore. Sad to see a good restaurant like Mirchi going down this way. read more

Amazing seekh kababs! Probably the best in Calgary (hint: don't get the spicy seekh kabab unless you have an infinite amount of time for a session at the nearest washroom if you know what I mean) read more

We arrived in Calgary around dinner time, checked Yelp, and were delighted to see an Indian restaurant with fabulous reviews near our hotel. Yelp, you didn't let me down. The vegetarian combo was outstanding! The dal was fresh and gingery, and the mixed vegetable curry was one of the finest I've had in Alberta. We also had the prawn tikka which was very good as well. Portions were very generous, leaving us with lunch for the next day. Naan and rice were included, which made this take-out meal(s) a real bargain for under $30. If we lived in Calgary, I imagine we'd stop by Mirchi often. I suspect we will likely visit again on future trips south. read more

Great little hole in the wall. I wouldn't lick the floor, but I'll eat the food. Thumbs up for good kababs!

Went for lunch with a few people from work. The food is a nice portion and quite tasty! The servers were attentive and quick to bring us additional items. Only complaint is that the rice was not that great and butter chicken was too spicy! read more

Randomly landed here twice through yelp while on travel and enjoyed a quick nice meal... A whole in the wall place that's clean and offers good service. The afghan tikka on a snowy in Calgary night was too good and so was the Wednesday special Haleem. I am coming back here for sure. Give them a try! read more

Absolutely fantastic place. This is kind-of one of those places that you would call a "hole-in-the-wall" except that it's not. It is small but the decor is very pleasant. Now to the best part - the food. Excellent. Delicious. Wonderful. Naan's are great. Butter chicken is super. Hot chai is perfect. read more

Mirchi is a Pakistani Restaurant. The food is so tasty. I had their vegetarian combo and its mouth watering. All their naans are good especially garlic naan. I love the smell of garlic. My husband had kababs and he is in love with them. read more

The place for so horrible that I have actually taken an effort to write down a review. i ordered a takeaway & while being over priced it was under cooked and quite frankly not at all what i expected. We called the restaurant later to give our feedback but that too was not taken very positively. I am actually surprised to see positive reviews here - i keep on wondering how this place still stays open for business . read more

Great Indian food, definitely must go place in Calgary.

I work on 11th Ave and needed something quick, so I ran over to Mirchi. I wanted the vegetable curry but all that was left was the Daal. I came in right before 10pm after my shift so that's to be expected. I was Leary as iv never tried it before but he suggested I give it a go. I ended up getting the Daal with Rice and Naan.... Omg it was so good. Thanks for helping me venture out from my usual. It was delicious. The staff was extra friendly as well... Also sorry for coming in right before close. Much love. read more

Went to dine in with my wife on 8/30/17. We told the cashier we will take a seat so that we can look at the menu and decide the items to order. My husband went to the counter to place the order. They told us they will come to our table to take the order. When they came to take the order they said sorry this table is reserved for someone. They wasted our time and money. We took a uber to go to their restaurant. Really disappointed with their service. If a seat is reserved put a reserved sign on the table, don't waste people's time and money!! read more

A staple of Calgary's Pakistani restaurant scene. For a long time, this was the go-to place for authentic Pakistani bbq and curries. Their service has improved and the food is still excellent. I would recommend the lamb chops and any of the karahi. read more

Went for lunch today. I must say the food is very tasty but super oily! I ordered the vege combo which comes with a choice of 2 veges plus rice OR naan. The choices were daal, aloo bengan, and mixed veges. The daal and aloo bengan were excellent...except for the oil! The non-veg options were haleem and butter chicken. My friend had the butter chicken and said it was very good. The naan was simply amazing...made fresh in the tandoor. The food came with raita and salad. I was bummed that they didn't have gulab jamun since I'd read good reviews on it. I paid $15 for my vege lunch combo which I think is pretty reasonable for being in downtown Calgary. read more

We we dined in have had take out. Stay away from the biryani, we've always been dissapointed. It's not to Pakistani standard, rice is not basmati rice (the ideal rice for biryani), its very stale, has a strange smell and clearly heavily microwaved. The kebabs are made fresh and taste good, but are a bit overpriced at $10 for 2 pieces. The kofta are also quite good. Generally it is better to stick to the grilled items. read more

One of the best in the city. Been coming here for years for my Indian fix. The Butter chicken and garlic Naan always hits the spot.

There meatball curry was undercooked and you could see the pink ground beef inside and the spices was over the roof I wished I had a bucket of water beside me instead of a glass of water. Their restaurant is most filthy place you can ever see I believe their Naan oven hasn't been cleaned in ages as you can see even dirty oil dripping from their cooking area . Highly recommend to people who want to get sick. I wouldn't be surprised if one of these days they get reviewed by health Canada. read more

The food was greasy, he service was not top notch and it made me feel sick after... I would have had better food at a fast food joint.

Really good pakistani food. Great ambiance. Reasonable prices. Hospitable staff. And meat is fully halal. Will definitely be there again.

I love this place. The spices that they use are exclusive to this restaurant - you will not get them anywhere else. The best thing on the menu, in my opinion are the goat chops. They are extremely tasty and you get a good portion at an excellent price. The staff are friendly and will help you make an informed selection, it is not the fanciest place in the world but it is great for takeout. Highly recommended. read more

The chicken biryani was very dry. I saw the cook microwave the biryani before packing it up for me. When asked if it was microwaved, they claimed that it was prepared fresh on that morning. The chicken was very dry and didn't seem like it was made fresh. A restaurant serving yesterday's microwaved food is just pathetic. This restaurant used to be good. read more

We ended up here after heading to Sahara (which used to be in this space) only to find it was closed and Mirchi was now the restaurant. Had a fantastic meal, the goat was amazing and the butter chicken I keep dreaming about. Service was slow and needs sone work, but the kitchen is pumping out some of the best in Calgary. read more

Amazing food! Great service, convenient location for awesome down town eats! Will come back in a heart beat.

awesome food!, very affordable!, I absolutely love the butter chicken here!. I can see why they have won multiple food awards. great vibe, friendly staff!. very small with only 4 tables and 4 seats per table eating in is sometimes difficult because it's always busy! which is a good thing people line up to eat here. my fav take out is.... Butter Chicken, Beef Tikka & 2 garlic nombread YOU CANT GO WRONG!. price to food ratio is second to non! will fill you up and leave you with left overs for another great meal. (reheated MIRCHI'S food is just as good as it is coming off the grille). I'm just rambling and talking away here.... I make a 20min drive from the south east just to eat here... I've never had a bad experience eating at mirchis i don't understand the negative reviews people have given this place. i am 100% certain that mirchis is EASILY the best indian restraunt in Calgary. if people don't agree Id love to hear where a better place is to eat indian food. mirchis DO NOT CHANGE A THING YOU ARE DOING EVERYTHING GREAT!!!. keep up the good work!. read more

Mirchi Restaurant - butter chicken !!! - Indian Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

very bad service. Chicken was uncooked, waitress was very rude I have to call her again and again for things, they should know we buy food from there restaurant not get it for free. If you really want to taste good east Indian food my suggestion is to go N.E and look for kebab hut restaurant. read more

Fantastic and affordable food. They are always quick and have orders reading for pick up on time.

Horrible! The staff are unwelcoming and the food is expensive and boring. The vegetable curry was made with frozen veggies and had very little flavour. The beef ribs were more fat than meat. They didn't have several items we ordered available. Who is giving this restaurant 5 stars--we were misled and hope you aren't too!! read more

i m very lucky to have mirchi located just minutes away to my house. Price is low as compared to the rest of indian/pakistani restaurants and food is greater in taste. i will definitely go again read more

"VERY POOR Customer Service". The food was good but their way of service is way too bad. Me & my friends felt embarrassed the way they treated us. I'll never ever go to this place again, for sure. read more

Just ordered the vegetable curry. Before I ordered I asked how large it was and he said it served for two people. It's tiny cup. Dishonest business people that I won't do business with again. It was a takeout. Lost all future business and I live curry bc Dishonest sales tactics. read more

this is worst restaurant in canada, i ordered lamb karahi and it was full of oil, tasteless and very expensive and very less quantity, and then rotis are very hard to eat, even animals can't eat this food, i wish there was minus rating for this, i recommend don't visit this restaurant, they don't have seating capacity and looting all customers with high prices read more
