When it comes to authentic Pakistani cuisine, Village View Pakistani Buffet and Restaurant is setting a new standard in Welland. Stepping into this newly opened hotspot, I was immediately struck by the enchanting ambiance and beautifully appointed decor featuring design elements imported from Türkiye. The attention to detail here is impeccable, setting the stage for a memorable dining experience.
Authentic Spices and Fresh Flavors
The buffet, available from 11 AM to 3 PM, features a wide array of traditional dishes that are as fresh and flavorful as you’d expect from an à la carte menu. Weekday buffet prices are $24.99, and weekends are $27.99. Children aged 0-5 dine for free, and those aged 5-10 can enjoy the buffet for just $15. What truly stands out is the authenticity of the spicing—each dish bursts with unique flavours that tantalize the taste buds, making it hard to believe you're dining from a buffet.
For those who prefer à la carte, the restaurant offers a diverse menu of Pakistani favorites throughout the day and evening, making it an excellent choice for any meal. Whether you’re there for a casual lunch or a celebratory dinner.
Every Visit Feels Like a Special Occasion
Village View Restaurant has a way of making every visit feel like a sumptuous special occasion feast. The naan bread, served freshly made to order for each table, is a standout. Hand-stretched dough is baked to perfection in a tandoor oven, resulting in naan that is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The large pitcher of water provided at each table was a thoughtful touch, appreciated by all guests. This attention to detail extends to the rest of the menu, ensuring an exceptional dining experience every time.
The State-of-the-Art Kitchen
I had the unique opportunity to don a hair net and tour the newly installed, glisteningly clean kitchen. Equipped with not one but two tandoor ovens, this state-of-the-art facility is a testament to the restaurant's commitment to quality. The second tandoor is dedicated to traditional tandoori grilling, ensuring that every piece of BBQ is expertly crafted over glowing charcoal.
Village View Restaurant’s menu offers a variety of delectable dishes:
- BBQ Sizzlers: Savour the smoky aroma and succulent taste of 100% halal BBQ.
- Halwa Puri: Available every day, featuring fluffy puris, sweet halwa, and savory chana masala.
- Naan: Hand-stretched dough, baked to perfection in a tandoor oven.
- Curries: A wide selection of curries bursting with authentic flavours.
Additional notes:
There is additional parking for 30 cars behind the Tim Hortons lot next door and a huge outdoor patio will soon be open at the rear of the building, perfect for enjoying meals in a relaxed outdoor setting.
