    This place really is a 4.5/5! So good. Ambiance: Modern with a beautiful backdrop. Located walk distance to Angel Stadium. My only complaint is that parking may be difficult during rush hour. Service: Order at the cashier and they bring the food out to you. Everything was served very fresh and hot. - The Nehari Roll: 5/5 Full of flavor with the right amount of crispiness. It even had a little kick for spice level. I will say it seems a little on the smaller side because it wasn't very filling, but nonetheless, I ordered other items also. - Masala Fries: 4/5 - Chicken Samosas: 4/5 Could be better. Chicken was a little flavorless. - Potato Samosas: 5/5 I'm usually a meat only girlie but the potato was surprisingly better than the chicken. - Green Sauce:5/5 - Raita: 4/5

    So yummy! Such a fun twist on Pakistani food, the wraps are so good and made me question why I never did this with paratha before! The meat is great and the service was top tier! It was our first time and they allowed us to try all the meats so we could decide what to get. Ambiance is great as well! Cute place with cute decor! We're way too full to try the drinks but will be back to try them and the dessert! Great find!

    I always pass by Asian, Mexican, and Italian restaurants while I'm driving. So when I saw a Pakistani restaurant, I knew I had to stop by. I dropped in on a Friday evening and found ample seating for my party of two. No line so I just went up and ordered a spicy bowl with Karahi chicken and a fountain drink. Minimal interaction with the staff, but they were friendly. I appreciated the nice personalized decorations of Disneyland and Angel's stadium with a touch of Pakistan along the walls. Like the food itself, it really brings a touch of the owners' culture to Southern California. The food were brought to us and I mowed down the bowl like there was no tomorrow. The spices really added a nice kick to the rice and chicken. I believe they called the sauce a yogurt? But that one was a nice touch. The fries also had some seasoning that I really appreciated. I'm glad I stopped by. The portions and sizes were very appropriate.

    Anaheim Chapli Kabob Burger...mehhh
    Linette P.

    Biryani Boys in Anaheim had some really good drinks, honestly one of the highlights of our visit. Flavorful, refreshing, and well made. The food itself was good, but the portions felt a little small for the price. It did come off slightly on the stingy side, though I do understand that food and grocery costs have gone up everywhere, so I'm trying to be fair about that. One thing I really appreciated was that they have their own parking, which makes a big difference in Anaheim and takes away a lot of the hassle. Overall, a decent experience with good drinks and convenience, just wish the portions matched the pricing a bit better.

    Great food and really great service in a fast casual setting. This was my first time here and the hostess gave us samples of their most popular protein options so we could try. You order by choosing your entree (bowl, wrap or burger), your choice of protein and sauce. I got the bowl with biriyani, karahi chicken, and green sauce. Super good. The chef also gave my group a complimentary burger and fries, both were also delicious.

    Don't taste like anything, just milk and cinnamon.

    Sorry to say but this place missed the mark. Was excited after reading about this place and their story. Staff was friendly but it took 30 minutes to get our food. Hopefully they change things up in their new location. In my opinion the flavors resembled more of Mediterranean and Mexican cuisine than Pakistani. Nothing about the briyani bowl made me think this was something I'd order in Pakistan.

    Biryani, Wrap and Fries  !

    We were craving for some kebabs and Biryani and found BB via a quick yelp search. This is nicely tucked in a residential/retail building. The place was clean and well kept. We got the Sindhi Biryani , a Wrap (malai kebab) combo and a Samosa. Biryani and Wrap were good. Not great but good. Samosa was a huge let down. Felt air-fried from a frozen pack. Service was very good. The lady at the counter was really nice. Overall , not bad.

    Seriously very good Pakistani food. I have nothing but good things ti say about every item I had here when it comes to the flavor and the accuracy of how it tasted back when I visited Pakistan. Even though it's called Biryani Boys, I had to try their Chapli Kabab Burger just because it's been such a long time since I have had it. I made it a combo with their Masala Fries and Premiun Drink Upgrade to Iced Kashmiri Tea. The food was ready and the flavor did not disappoint at all. Great job on the balance of flavors and spices and the Kashmiri Tea was phenomenal. It was so good I had to try their Falooda which was one of my favorite desserts. Once again it didn't disappoint. Now unfortunately while everything was great here. The only thing I would say is the portions were very small the burger looked huge in the picture but it is a smash burger so it's very small and so was everything portion wise. For $11 just the burger itself it might be something after the first time people may wonder it's worth. Same with the Falooda. It was so small and not even filled to the top that while I enjoyed everything so much, I can see why the place wasn't packed during peak hours. The ambiance is nice and I loved the art work inside. Will still return but the portions need a reality check if this place wants to survive these critical times.

    Malai chicken
    Purbali S.

    Wow what a fun concept and delicious biriyani! We got our food delivered and everything was delicious. We had a Malai chicken wrap and added the green sauce and chilies. The chilies are spicy warning! The pickled onions and flavors all inside the fluffy wrap was delicious. We also tried the gulab jamon cheesecake which was tasty. Middle did taste like a gulab jamon an was a fun fusion dessert. We also had the potato wrap and was so impressed that a fried potato was able to have so much flavor.

    Tried 2 biryani bowls and a roll ... all items were excellent. Service was great - they let us try samples of each protein so we could choose the right spice level before ordering. My favorite was the Karahi chicken.... If you like spicy, the nehari was great too. Atmosphere was very nice - clean, relaxed/casual vibe with cool decorative art/murals on the wall (see pics). We also had the mango and mango/guava lassi which were also flavorful and balanced out the spices nicely. Overall highly recommend and will be back again.

    Structure parking Few spots available Lots of indoor and outdoor seating! Good for big groups The ambiance is lively. Lots of lovely wall art The staff was so helpful and offered suggestions on what is popular They have samples as well, I go to try different biryani and chicken to see which is want I went with the sindhi biryani with karahi chicken The biryani was flavorful and delicious The karahi chicken also has such good flavor, moist, and juicy. I also got the guava mango lassi ! They also gave Raita on the side The format is the food is like halal guys like lot said rice and meat on sides with sauces. Also it's is all HALALA! I enjoyed my food here I'd recommend to others!

    Pulao Biryani Bowl
    Yasmeen E.

    Yummm this place was so good. You order at the counter either the self-order kiosk or with staff. You pick your rice, protein, and sauce. We really wanted to try the Sindhi but they ran out. However the Pulao was great. The chicken Karahi was perfect and really want to try the other ones. I do think the sauce containers are way too small and could be slightly more flavorful, and I wish it came with more of the vegetables. But overall I would definitely come back here and try out the other items.

    Vishal S.

    The biryani is delicious. Spicy just how I like it. If it's too spicy had some yogurt. Service was quick. The restaurant has a nice patio if you eat there. We ordered the Palau chicken and the Karai chicken biryani bowls. For desert the gulab jaman cheesecake. We took ours to go. Definitely a fan and will go back again and again.

    Is that easy for find the parking?

    Yes, parking inside the building!!

    How do we unlock the free pink chai offer if it's pick up only? The man at the front didn't know anything about it.

    Just shoot us a text at 714-257-5577 and we’ll have someone come out and give ya one :)

    Are gluten free options available, if so what are they?

    Hello, all of our biryanis will be gluten free including our meats other than the Nehari Beef. If there is a gluten allergy I would avoid our parathas (flat breads) which do contain gluten.

    Is the chicken machine slaughtered or hand slaughtered ? Looking for answer from the owner thanks.

    Assalamu Alaikum, Our chicken is Halal Zabiha certified, albeit machine slaughtered rather than hand… 

    Can any of the chai's be made with no sugar?

    Hello, Yes, we make your chai with no sugar upon request : )

    This is the first ever Yelp review I've made, but I simply had to write something after coming…read morehere. From the jump, my friends and I felt so welcome, all thanks to our man Jake, who so attentively took our order. This man was such a vibe and provided top-tier customer service in spite of being short staffed. He always had a smile on this face and handled everything so well, especially the 11pm rush that came shortly after we ordered. I can write so much more about him, but he honestly set the stage for what I think of the best dining establishments I've ever been to. Shoutout Jake! The food? No notes. It was tasty, scrumptious, divine, exquisite, all of the above. That food was made with love and care -- shoutout to the kitchen staff! I got the crispy chicken sandwich and woah, what a revelation! Eggplant on the sandwich? Such a game changer, like some next level stuff here honestly. My friend got a burger and oh my god, I only had one bite, but it was honest to god one of the best burgers I've ever had in my life. My other friends got chicken tenders. Tender doesn't just describe the chicken but also the souls who prepared and served this amazing platter. They honestly put every other chicken tender I've had to shame, I'm afraid I won't ever have another chicken tender without comparing it to YoYos. Sides were scrumptious and the sauces that came with them were so good too. I don't know how they did it, but the soft drinks had something special too. Nothing disappointed, I'm telling you! I wish I took more photos of the food but it was just so good that I didn't have time for that. I had such an emotional experience eating here, and I wasn't under the influence or anything -- it was just that good! I could preach to the choir and write a whole song (maybe album) about how amazing my experience was here. It was so magical, I nearly cried thinking about how lucky I was to eat here and break bread with friends. I live in west LA and I would honestly drive however long it takes, even in traffic, just to eat here again. It was simply that good. It's one of those places that you just can't gatekeep because I honestly think a visit here would heal so many traumas and bad days. This was the perfect end to a day with friends, and I will be coming back sometime soon. You will not regret coming here, I guarantee it! If you do, I just think you're lying for clout because I firmly believe this place could not disappoint anyone! P.S. just in case I didn't highlight Jake enough, I need everyone to know that he is the man! The experience would be nothing if it weren't for him. P.S. again: if I were on death row or another situation with a "last meal" type of arrangement, YoYos would need to be a part of that final meal so that I could die so happy and enlightened

    I came here on a Tuesday evening with two of my brothers and a friend came here to hangout. Me and…read moremy friend are not lamb fans and was a bit hesitant on ordering the food so we did hold off on ordering for ourselves. And said we decided to share and eat off of my two brothers plate before we decided to consider coming back or eating more. There was only one worker that was working at the time, but she did a phenomenal job, considering she was holding down the fort for the restaurant by herself. She also mentioned she doesn't like lamb, but she would eat the one here herself so it gave me a pretty good first impression thus far. We ordered the lamb skewers, grilled rib, shank over rice, homemade yogurt, and Cole slaw. Lamb Skewers - 4.5/5 the portion was very generous! $15 for 3 large skewers that was about 1.25 ft length each. Was perfectly grilled and did not taste gamey at all. I believe it was Szechuan pepper that seasoned the skewers. I didn't eat enough to recognize if there was any numbing, but the bite that I took was amazing. Outside was crunchy inside was chewy enough to enjoy, but not tough. Grilled rib - 5/5 I was very pleasantly surprised at how although it was very charred and crunchy in the outside that the inside was very soft and fatty. The meat literally fell off the bone. Again, no gaminess and very pleasant to enjoy. Shank - 5/5 I would have to say that this was the hero of the evening from all the dishes we ordered. The meat was extremely soft, fatty, and literally fell off the bone as I was holding it up. It was very similar to pork flavor and extremely enjoyable for me. On a separate note, I enjoyed that so much but because I had already eaten before this dinner, I came back a separate day to have that dish for myself. The rice seems to be cooked in some type of protein broth and if I had to guess it's probably lamb broth along with carrot. It also came with size of pickled items to lighten the fatness from the meat as well as a small bowl of lamb based soup. Homemade yogurt - 4/5 had a slight tartness to it and light sweetness, but was more leaning towards the sweet side of things. I enjoyed it with the dried raisins and the granola for texture and it was a pretty good ending to the entire meal. Coleslaw - 3/5 it tasted average and didn't seem to be anything special. Though it was good to have it along with all the other protein items to lighten up each bite.

    Growing up in Hong Kong ,…read more lamb wasn't something I ate very often. It wasn't until I moved to SoCal that I discovered all-lamb restaurants like M Joy. It's basically a dream come true for lamb lovers -- almost every meat dish on the menu is lamb! This popular halal restaurant specializes in Xinjiang-style lamb dishes. The lamb rib with rice was incredibly tender and practically fell off the bone. The grilled lamb shank and grilled lamb ribs are also must-orders if you love bold, flavorful dishes. And don't miss the lamb skewers! They come in both spicy and non-spicy options. One thing that really surprised me was their classic sweet tea. They also have a salty version... but we definitely went with sweet. Oh, and you can request extra side dishes and soup too! Definitely come hungry. IG: socalhkfoodies
