Bar B Q Tonite

I did not regret this suggestion from a friend. The staff is friendly, service is good, nice place, but most of all the food was delicious. I would definitely recommend.

Best biriyani in GTA. We go here all the time and have never come out disappointed. The Hakeem they prepare during Ramadan season is something we look forward to every year

We have been ordering from this place for last 6 months or so and haven’t been ever disappointed with the quality and taste of food. During the most stormy night and specially when everybody was in closing state, they still managed to give us biryani’s as the kitchen was already closed. Appreciate their gesture.
We have tried almost all of their chicken dishes and they are pretty awesome.

Came here with my group and here is the Good and the Bad
Good:
Food tastes excellent. No complaints at all.
The meat platter is a must order and is well worth the price
Naans are excellent
Bad:
Long dine in times. :We had to wait almost 1 hour for our food to arrive.
Too much rice in biryani.: If you glance at any of the biryani plates there is an abundance of rice with a small amount for meat. The biryani would be worth its price if the rice is reduced by 25% and the meat increased by that amount.
Ambiance: The ambiance is very simplistic and could use a lot of refurnishing .
Long service times: While the service is good, servers are polite, the speed is slow, and the restaurant can benefit from staffing more servers to assist customers needs.
Final Verdict: I will return but only for takeout. I will dine in here if the overall ambiance and service times have improved based on future Unilocal reviews

Their kababs are mouthwateringly delicious!!!
The place is very busy… you may have to wait in queue for quite long, and the food takes another 20~30 minutes to come to your table. But this wait is definitely worth… the food is delicious! The tastes are quite different from the other kaboob places in GTA. We ordered Behari Kabab… well-​marinated beef, cooked on charcoal fire and served on a sizzling platter. Also had Maghaz Masala (cow brain, cooked with spices), this one is quite rare to find in GTA I believe.
The service is good, the servers are very attentive and prompt.
From the parking lot you can get the appetizing aroma of the kababs… I would suggest, take off your jackets and keep them in the car.

This restaurant doesn’t bring great Pakistani food to the GTA, the bring the GTA to Pakistan so there’s no need to travel there to taste how real Pakistani food taste!
If you’re looking palak puneer, a good daal or a cook that’s gonna hold back on the spices for the locals, try another place.
Everything on the menu was amazing from the Bihari kabobs to biryani right down to the eggplant chutney!
Hands down the best Pakistani restaurant in the GTA!

We have really high standards for desi food so finding a good place for those lazy days has been an ordeal.
BBQ Tonight is great! Their bihari kababs are absolutely amazing, the karhai is great, nihari is oily but still amazing, and the biryani is hyderabadi style spicy and tangy.
We still have to try other items on their menu but so far our experience has been great.

The best Bihari kabab I have ever had. We randomly ended up going to this place without having any expectations and boy, were we pleasantly surprised. The lamb and chicken biryani are also really good. However the Bihari kabab trumps everything. So well done and melts in your mouth. If anyone is looking to try good Pakistani cuisine I would definitely recommend this place. Service could be a little better but it’s not horrible.

Food quality is awesome. Biriyani is a must. They should try to expand and improve the ambience considering the rush.

Entrance is a bit shady with loads of hoard right in your face as you walk towards the entrance. Once you are in, the strong beautiful smells of fresh food hits your sinuses. The kitchen area has a glass see through the seating area so you can watch your chef as they prepare your food.
Tables were uncleaned and there were hardly any customer there so that was a little turn off. But we were greeted and seated quickly.
The washrooms probably get a 2 star rating for not keeping them cleaned. For a desi restaurant, I mean it was okay but certainly better than McDonalds washrooms.
Menu now, it is EXPENSIVE!!! Every freaking item on their menu is double the price you will pay at other places. This was probably the biggest turn off for us. $ 7 for a qeema naan and $ 12 for bihari kabab? Are you kidding me? Other dishes were equally priced and the food quantity didn’t do justice for the price we paid of the full meal.
The food came fresh in front of our eyes but thr qeema naan wasn’t the best. It hardly had any meat on it. Bihari kabab on the other hand was alright. The spices hadn’t been marinated fully on the meat but it was just alright.
The owner of the restaurant who sits behind the counter is a typical grumpy desi with no smile and taking personal phone calls and discussing personal family matters on the phone in front of customers.
The food I give 3.5 stars and price I give 2 stars and overall restaurant I give 3 stars. I would have no problem giving 4 stars to my review if the qeema naan was $ 3.99 and bihari kabab $ 6.99 but you can see that’s not the case.
Please see my pictures posted for this restaurant.
Message to the owner and management, please pay more attention to your customers and not your family matters when at work. Keep the washrooms cleaner and tables cleaned faster for better customer return.

This is my absolute favourite restaurant in Mississauga. I go so often my clothes smell of tandoor. I rave about this place to all my friends and family. I’ve had pretty much everything on the menu several times and I’m never disappointed. The best Bihari kabob, reshma kabob, garlic naan, and chicken tikka you can find. Takes awhile since everything is made fresh and to order. I can wait hours for this food and I do. I highly recommend it

A Famous Mississauga joint since the early 90’s! This place has been around and has a reputation for having some of the best Pakistani dishes! They make fresh tandoori naan right in front of you and fresh seekh kebabs! You can see them grilling your food through a see through glass so you know the food is always fresh. I would highly recommend the Briyani, tandoor chicken and seekh kebab. I also enjoy their saag (spinach) with butter tandoor naan. The food is amazing but the cleanliness level is what you’d except for any Pakistani restaurant. they need to upgrade their washrooms!

The service is absolutely horrific. Waiters are like lost puppies. We tried ordering takeout and they hangup on you… And when u call back they pick up and hang up on you agian. I saw the guy put green chutney that was on someone else’s table and give the leftovers to other customers. Tables are dirty… Plates and utensils are dirty, I asked them to change it.
The food is great, we ordered Lamb biryani and nihari but there was barely any Lamb, more like bones. Malsa is really good.

Bar B Q Tonite is Indian/​Pakistani soul food at its finest. Even though the location underwent a renovation recently, it’s still kinda divey. Stay for the the food, not the ambiance; or don’t, and pick up your order like most Bar B Q Tonight patrons do. Bar B Q Tonight is usually very busy. Prepare for long waits if you don’t call ahead. Also, they have been known to run out of popular items from time to time, so best to check ahead if you can.
The chicken biryani is an absolute must have. At almost $ 9.00 its a tad pricier than similar joints in the area, but it is to die for and you WILL notice the difference. Kebabs are spectacular, the naans are super fresh and the chicken tikka masala is amazing. I have even catered food from Bar B Q Tonight for a party of 30 people, and every single one of my overly judgmental Indian dinner guests was blown away by the food. There are a few of these Indian/​Pakistani joints in the Hurontario and Dundas area, but Bar B Q Tonight comes up on top every time.

This is not a bad choice if you are craving Pakistani food. Especially the chargha chicken, kebabs, karahi chicken and naan all great. Price is ok too — higher than take out joints. Service could be better, servers seem a bit confused at times and the place could be a bit cleaner, but that is unfortunately expected in these kind of restaurants.
I would go again for the food.

You have to consider this place in the context of its main clientele, working /​middle class Pakistani families. And as far as I could tell, they love this place. There are few places in Mississauga that have a 30min wait time on a Monday at 10pm for dinner. Also when Pakistani people go to eat bbq in Pakistan, things like table service and clean plates and health code compliance are not really things that exist in a meaningful way. So this place by comparison is amazing.
If you go, expect a lot of crying babies being comforted by there mothers or mothers who don’t give a shit and are done comforting there babies. Large families, in mean like 20 people taking over large parts of the restaurant, people on interracial dates, and families taking visiting grandparents out for dinner
The food is basic Pakistani BBQ, and it’s not the best in the world but it’s very likely some of the best in town. It would have to be, as Pakistani people do not tolerate bad food on a family night out.
We had the Kat-​a-​Kat, seekh kabob, tikka and Bihari kabob, all where good. the tikka was a little dry but that’s pretty had to get right.
All in all it’s an entirely authentic experience, not the only possible authentic experience but one of them. If you don’t like this place maybe try Lahore tikka house on Gerard it’s not much better or much worse.

The food here is worth a three. It’s very good and big portions. This is More a comment on service. Took about a half hour to be seated, which is fine but it took another half hour for anyone to talk to us about drinks and food. Ok. Icing on the cake was it literally took an hour for food to come out when we ordered a relatively simple dish. It was good food, however I would not be willing to travel to sauga again for it. Also, they add a service charge of five percent when there was hardly any service or contact. There was constantly a burning feeling in my eyes because of the smoke in the air. They need better ventilation for sure.

The Chicken Boti or Butter Chicken w/​their Garlic Naan are must try dishes for anyone stopping by. Would have given 5 stars if it was only the food, but their service is average. Not bad, but nothing special.
Their coal oven adds a distinct taste, which I like, that I haven’t had anywhere else. Anybody that’s interested in or wanting to try Indian/​Pakistani food need to come here.

2.5−3* is about right.
Stopped by to pick up a Chicken Biryani for a potluck with some friends. (Was going to go to a $ 5 joint, but the snow prevented me from doing more driving!) When I told the man behind the counter that I thought the Biryani was a bit expensive, at $ 8.99, he tried to justify it by saying that they use really high quality rice.
He also said that he wouldn’t charge me tax + he included another green chilli oil sauce to add spice to the dish. He also promised that if I loved their biryani, I’d be back!
I should’ve eaten more of it, but I thought it was pretty good. Would I have known the difference between the $ 5 vs. this place? Probably not. Portion was the same size.
Verdict? Good Chicken Biryani. Atmosphere itself seems slightly on the dinge-​side.

This would be a 2.5 stars location but the food is 4 stars!
The place is great for meat lovers… as the meat is grilled to the perfect level using charcoal and you can see them cooking live.
I have tired their Seekh Kabab with hot Naan. The Kabab was made from ground beef marinated in awesome spices over open charcoal fire. The food is great and enjoyable.
The place is where the location lost 2.5 stars… The tables were still dirty, the carpet is worn down and the restaurant needs a uplift. The outside seating area is covered by a old dirty furniture. Certainly, this will not be a place you visit for the atmosphere and looking at the surrounding I would question the hygiene of the restaurant.
All in all food is great but the place not so much!
For my Muslim folks –They serve halal meat
