    Nehari Mild Rice (Pulao Biryani) Bowl Malai spicy Mild Rice (Pulao Biryani) Bowl
    Drea G.

    Biryani Boys is right on the corner before The Grove in Anaheim, and let me just say this little spot is a gem. I've been twice already, which says a lot, and the first time I ordered the Malai Spicy Rice Bowl. And the spice? It was spicing. In the best way. So flavorful, bold, and the kind of heat that makes you happy instead of crying in regret. We also tried the chicken samosas, and even those had a little kick to them. 10 out of 10. My husband ordered the Nehari Spicy Rice Bowl and it was absolutely delicious. So good that I immediately thought, my out of town spicy food loving family would devour this. Fast forward to them coming down for Monster Jam, we made them stop here before the show. Zero disappointment. Plates cleaned. Silence at the table, which is the universal sign of good food. On our second visit, we tried the wraps. I was expecting something pita style, but it came in this flaky, pastry type wrap that I genuinely do not know how to describe, other than it was hands down one of the most delicious things I have had in a long time. This time I toned down the spice and got the sauce on the side, which made it super refreshing and still very filling. The staff were amazing. The cook was incredibly kind and even let us try the potato samosas and the masala fries, which were out of this world good. My family loved their bowls and that signature spice kick. What I really love is that you can customize your spice level. Whether you want full heat or something mild, they have you covered. They even have a children's menu, which was perfect since we had three kids with us, including my one year old son, who happily devoured the potato samosa. Yes, my toddler has taste. Everything was very clean, the energy was warm and welcoming, and it felt relaxed, not rushed. It is great for families, spice lovers, and vegetarians alike. We will absolutely be back.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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 : )

They have a call button at each table which grabs the wait staffs attention which is helpful. Stopped by here on a Friday afternoon and the restaurant was pretty empty. They had 3 wait staff working, but they didn't pay much attention to us despite being the only ones in there. The waiter who took out initial order did help out with initial suggestions though, but didn't go into depth about the dishes-just told us what's popular. Ordered the Mandi lamb and the waiter suggested the chicken dish as it was boneless and had a different taste than the Mandi lamb. Small thing to note here- they don't provide water and charge $2.00 for a bottle. Our meal of 2 dishes, a water, and a karak chai came out to $80.00 which is pretty much expensive in my opinion. Most of their main dishes cost $30.00 but are meant to be shared. The Mandi lamb was good! Nothing extraordinary, but the meat was very tender and juicy. It didn''t have any distinct flavor,but did have the slightest tinge of "gamey lamb" taste still. The rice was super flavorful however and not too greasy which I liked. Overall would recommend ending up here if you're looking to splurge, with a big group of people and in the area.

So make your reservation 30min - 1hr before you would normally want to eat. That said. Here's what we ordered the last few times we went, ranked from good to amazing. Classic Chicken Curry: First bites had us really surprised on how fresh it was made. Like this was amazing. Lighter curry with amazing flavor. Just damn good. 4.5 stars for this and we've only started. Khan Biryani: The spice level was absolutely perfect, lifting up every flavor in this dish. Amazingly balanced, just. Probably the best Chicken Biryani I've had in my life, and I've had A LOT of Pakastani and Indian food in my life. Pani Puri: Such a simple unassuming dish, then you put the citrus tamarind water on top of everything. OML this was a flavor bomb that I've ordered a couple times. The only reason I won't order it next time is I really want to explore this menu. Tandoori Naan: We've ordered this a few ways, and to our delight they will make the garlic chili variety. It comes out smelling like the wood fire they use for the Tandoori. Just beautiful. One order is enough for 2 people. As for the best thing on this menu, and it pains me when I don't order it. Palak Paneer. The last time I ordered this I took a look up on the wall and what I saw didn't surprise me. This place got a Michelin award. Not quite a star, but if anything drove that award it had to be this dish. They use fresh spinach, and it ABSOLUTELY shows. It's so freaking good. I can't imagine eating here and not getting this. Sadly, we must explore more of this menu. We will be back, sometimes with friends. Love this place so much.

The biggest downside was the wait--we had to wait quite a while for our food to arrive. Parking is also a major challenge in the area, so be prepared for that.

I've tried every avenue you can consume their food, so I can attest to consistent experiences all around. What we ordered this time: - Onion Kulcha - Basmati Rice - Butter Chicken - Goan Fish Curry - Mango Lassi I always order their butter chicken and love that they use tandoori chicken meat for it. The goan fish curry had a very mild and subtle flavor, and the coconut reminded me of Thai curry. I got medium spicy for butter chicken this time and I swear it was 3x spicier than when I've ordered medium spicy in the past, so I was so grateful we had a mango lassi to cool off with. Our recent fixation has been their kulcha, which has replaced our previous orders of naan.

The Chicken Tikka Masala was advertised as buy one, get one free, but when the food arrived, both containers were barely half full. It honestly looked like one normal order had simply been split between two containers to make it appear like a BOGO deal. If that's what happened, calling this "buy one, get one free" is extremely misleading. Unfortunately, the portion size wasn't even the worst part. This was easily the worst Chicken Tikka Masala I've ever had. It was incredibly bland, had almost no flavor or depth, and despite ordering it medium, there was virtually no heat at all. Even worse, it had a strange, unpleasant bitter aftertaste. The garlic naan was also terrible--completely soggy and unappetizing. I rarely leave reviews this negative, but the combination of the questionable BOGO portions and genuinely bad food made this an awful experience from beginning to end. I couldn't even enjoy the meal. Extremely disappointing and absolutely not worth the money.
