    Takeout order.
    Krishna C.

    I had reviewed this place previously a decade ago! Biriyani is still solid! Mutton curry was delicious! Karvepaku Mutton fry was phenomenal! Naan was dry, but alright. Great value on the food. Good amounts of meat in the dishes. Check this place out guys!

    Ordered paneer biryani. It was pathetic. Looked and tasted like fried rice. Service is bad too. No one bothered to give glasses for water too. Not going back again.

    Wow! I really enjoy the biryani here. When I arrived, I asked for a recommendation on a chicken biryani, and they recommended Chicken 65 Mandi, and I really enjoyed it. The ambiance seems like a mostly takeout operation, but there are some tables and chairs to eat inside.

    I have ordered before from here and loved their biryani. They adjust the spice level based on your preference. I chose medium and it seems I got low so it was almost bland though the rice and chicken were well cooked. The paneer tikka was super spicy n the other hand. That said I like the way they cook their biryani unlike some of the disappointing experience I have had elsewhere. Overall an authentic biryani place. It's mostly a takeaway place than sit and eat. Service is prompt.

    Mutton biryani
    Khaja H.

    My first time experiencing food in this restaurant and employee in the front "SAMAY" he really take care of me and food order and he did a great job and Had a nalli biryani today and it was phenomenal! The marrow was rich and buttery, the mutton was incredibly tender, and the spices were perfectly balanced without overpowering the dish. The rice was aromatic and cooked to perfection. Definitely one of the best biryanis I've had!

    the rumali roti was so good and amazing. the halem was okay. my friends like their birthday.

    I really did want to like this place but the food was really meh! What initially drew me to it was the BOGO deal on the Biryani but ended up finishing just half of one and throwing away the other one - the kababs were burnt - not at all well made. However the manager and the service at this cloud kitchen were impeccable.

    Nearby Indian food place. We got Hyderabad Chicken, Hyderabad Mutton dum, Butter Chicken, Shrimp Tikka Masala and Rice. They were all pretty good. Nothing too spicy. Favorite was the Shrimp tikka masala. But the two biryanis were just alright. It didn't taste fresh. Also sauces were just bland and ok. Lacks flavor. Service was nice and inside was small but tidy

    This place is a great late night option, staying open until 10:30 PM. The interior is small, with just a few tables, but there is indoor seating available if you're dining in. Despite the limited space, the atmosphere feels warm and welcoming. The worker who took our order was very attentive. He handed us menus right as we walked in and took the time to answer all our questions. After we placed our order, he brought over plates, utensils, and napkins without us needing to ask, which we appreciated. We ordered the Hyderabadi Mutton Dum Biryani, Mutton Ghee Roast Biryani, garlic naan, and a chicken biryani recommended by the staff. I'm not exactly sure which one, but it was perfect for someone in our group who doesn't do well with spicy food. All the food came out hot and around the same time, which was great. Each dish was packed with flavor, and we were given two different sauces with each biryani that really elevated the experience. Overall, this spot delivered on both flavor and service. Next time I come back I'd want to tryout their curries.

    Back again my go to spot for biryani new menu decent prices delicious food!!! Close to home

    We ordered the Chicken 65 Family Pack, Mutton Family Pack, Paneer Family Pack, Gobi 65, Chicken Lollipop, and the Pan Fried Momos. My favorite dish we got was probably the Mutton Family Pack. I thought the biryani was really good and the mutton itself was super tender and mixed well with the rice. I was disappointed with the Chicken 65 as I felt that the chicken was a little dry overall. I also thought the pan fried moms were average compared to other momos I've had. Out of the appetizers, the Gobi 65 (cauliflower) was the best one! Everything we got had a kick but wasn't too spicy! We got everything takeout style, but the service when we got in was good, and they were very nice!

    My friends and I got takeout for dinner from here and originally I wasn't going to eat but I ended up giving in because I couldn't resist the smell! The wait for the food felt like a good while but they threw in an extra mango lassi for the wait :) I tried everything paneer and I enjoyed it all. We got two family packs. The rice was fragrant. The naan was good. The mango lassi was yummy. I wished got my own! And the butter chicken was good. Only four stars because though the food was good, there wasn't something special that is making want to go back.

    Boneless Chicken Biryani
    Ang V.

    First time ordering from here. Ordered through doordash for pickup. Got boneless chicken biryani mild spice. Pickup was quick and easy. Small parking lot shared with other businesses. I expected more than just frozen chicken nuggets as the "boneless chicken." That's honestly what it tasted and looked like. They give two sauces: raita and salan (I believe) but it smelled expired, especially the yogurt based sauce. Also please look at the picture and notice how white the rice is. Literally gave no spice and tasted very bland. Came with half of a boiled egg which was my favorite aspect of the dish. So many other Indian places in the South Bay that I'll try or pick before I ever go back here. Would not recommend.

Buffet available all seven days, weekend buffet is slightly more expensive but has a larger spread. **AMBIANCE: large floor to ceiling height but the place is small, it felt real cramped during the weekend buffet when it was packed with people. Their service area is also tight. They had to put two dishes in each chaffing dish to optimize. Weekday buffet was not as packed and i infact saw a huge corporate team gathered for lunch. ***FOOD: doesn't feel like a luxurious buffet due to lack of space but they did have a decent spread with 3-4 veggie appetizers, 3-4 non veg appetizers, 4-5 desserts, Pani puri, fresh table side naan (which was done very beautifully), two varieties of biryani, fried rice, indo Chinese items, 3-4 varieties of non veg curries, 3-4 varieties of veg curries, salad, drinks etc. As with any buffet there will be hits and misses, I for one enjoyed the varied options and the unlimited Pani puri though it was on the sweeter side. The weekend buffet was definitely worth the price tag of $23, the weekday buffet on the other day felt expensive at $20 as the number of items were significantly lower.

You can tell they really put so much work into the wall art as well as the installation of a decorative power line, to make it feel like you are dining outside on a nice, balmy day even if it's actually the middle of winter. The pani puri station is so fun and whimsical, the server prepares each bite for you while you pick which sauce you want to go with it. I felt like I was at a night market. We also ordered the pav bhaji which was hot, buttery and delicious. Tied together with an order of garlic naan and chicken tikka masala, our meal was sumptuous and so satisfying. This is our fourth time coming here and we will definitely be back with our friends and family.

This is something that takeout cant give full justice. They have a variety of pani flavors some of which my kids really liked. All our food was brought out in time and the staff was helpful throughout the dinner. Also, the ambience of this place brings out the 90's nostalgia which is a bonus.

We ordered the Pachimirchi paneer, chicken tikka burger, veg puffs, garlic naan, street-style noodles, chai, and falooda, and every dish was flavorful and hit the spot. They are known for their very generous Mandi dish, which is a Yemeni dish that gained popularity in Hyderabad due to Yemeni immigrants. It's a combination of flavored rice and a variety of meats. The restaurant was super busy, which speaks to how popular it is, but the service was pretty slow & they were out of many food items as a result. The restaurant has regular seating and, in addition, cute closed booths where you can sit at a low table in the traditional Indian way. They also have some funky prison booths with handcuffs, etc. If you aren't in a massive rush, the food is definitely worth the wait for some solid Indian fusion and street-style favorites. I will be definitely going back to try their famous Mandi Ambiance: 10/10 Service: 8/10 Food: 10/10 Music: 10/10 Seating: indoor & privacy booths Parking: Ample, free parking available Price: $30-$50 per person

Rich without being too heavy. Mandi is a Yemeni dish that gained popularity in Hyderabad due to Yemeni immigrants to the city. It's a combination of rice and meats. The flavors are more Arabian. Served with Yemeni schug, a green chutney, and tomato onion sauce. I tried fish Mandi and absolutely loved it. The rice was seasoned with hawaij and toasted raisins and almonds, and the fish was nicely crispy and covered in a sauce similar to tikka masala, very tasty. They have a few different kinds of delicious yellow dal that make a great accompaniment to Mandi -- spinach, tomato, mango pickle. The menu is very extensive, with a wide range of Telugu dishes. They have some fun little touches -- Mandi booths and a kitschy jail cell table, which apparently replicates a popular Mandi House in India. The service is very nice and welcoming.

I was seated immediately, no wait, and the restaurant only had a few tables of people. The inside was bright and had plenty of tables. The noise was mainly from the mall. There was a large neon blackboard with the day's special clearly stated. There were two people working the dining room taking orders, cleaning up tables, and bringing out the food. They were friendly taking and confirming my order. The menu covered all the usual dishes you might see at an Indian restaurant. And since one of the specials was butter chicken combo, I ordered that along with a paneer Manchurian with garlic naan. I didn't know what Manchurian flavor meant but it's like orange chicken but instead with paneer. It was pretty good. The paneer seemed to be pan fried before tossed in the sauce and topped with green onion. I would order this again. The butter chicken was also pretty good. It wasn't too heavy with butter and had a good amount of chicken. Chunks of chicken just floating in the sauce. The garlic naan was flatter and crispier than other Indian restaurants I've been too, but it was ok and did its job of being a vessel for the sauces. I would come back to try the wraps and curry next time. Other tables ordered these items and they looked really good.

Naan traditionally does not have yeast in the dough, has to be kneaded in a peculiar manner, is made fresh daily and rolled, stretched out thin and cooked in the tandoor or similar apparatus.. they nail all the points that make naan distinct from other Indian bread types.
