It's drab and dreary inside and the wallpaper is yellowing and the fading plastic table covers give it a cheap tacky feeling - I'll order delivery next time and enjoy the good food at home thank you.

Any place that serves biryani in buckets will always have my back (take out only). This place is a…read moreflavor explosion. They have like 20 or 30 different types of biryani, and they're all unique. They serve North Indian, South Indian, veg, nonveg, Andhra dishes, pulav (weekends only), they have it covered. Their entrees, dosas, and tandoori menu items are also delicious, and sometimes spicy af. Sometimes I feel that the superb food quality doesn't match the ambiance, which can feel like a loud cafeteria but hey, food is priority #1. After all, if its packed, that means its good. In my experience, they have never told me that they don't have an item available, even though they have a pretty large menu. What they serve is always fresh, which can lead to some delay in service, but the food is worth the wait. Some items are so unique, which gives Hyderabad House Biryani place the edge. The aromas, as you exit your parked 1984 Ford Escort hatchback, will take you by the nostrils and pull you in, just like a Tom and Jerry cartoon.

Definitely an underrated place. I wouldn't have known about this place without my friend telling me…read moreand I'm glad he did. Upon walking in, I knew it was going to be a good meal given how many locals I saw. We ordered a variety of dishes and none of them disappointed. I especially enjoyed the cauliflower appetizer. Of note, if you're not used to Indian level of spicy, I would err on the side of mild.

Was record shopping nearby and discovered this place on my way home. I had quickly scanned the…read morearea for highly rated Indian food and this spot showed up. Upon arriving however, I realized that this was going to be a very different experience than what I'd anticipated. First, I would like to call out that this restaurant occupies what was clearly a defunct fast food restaurant. I only point it out because it took me awhile to realize or even consider this. The work that they have done to transform the interior is inspired and at no point did I think that I was anywhere other than an elevated, exotic and refined restaurant. But I don't want to waste any more of your time. I cannot recommend highly enough the experience of Sattvic. And I emphasize the word experience. Because this place is much, much more than dining. Upon arrival, I was immediately greeted by about 5 smiling team members. All of whom seemed much more energized, and friendly than any place I'd been in awhile. It was overwhelming and their eagerness for me to feel at home was real. As I sat, I was brought a bottle of cold water and another carafe of what was described as a buttermilk drink with fresh herbs. To cleanse the palate. Beautiful touches and a nice way to open up your palate and appetite I thought. Next, I received another warm welcome and thorough introduction to the restaurant from one of my many servers. He walked me through the fact that this would be a vegetarian, thali experience. I could eat as much as I liked. There was no menu. And all dishes would be available throughout my time there, including a variety of different breads. Not what I had anticipated.........especially the part about no meat. But I was game and everyone was so friendly. What followed was truly one of the best dining experiences I've had in a long time. A group from the kitchen was dispatched with a trolley of different dishes that I can still remember individually. There were different curries, breads, soups and proteins in the form of dahl made two different ways. I was brought their own homemade spicy pickle, more breads and a rice and lentil mixture that was a great foil to the spicy curries that had been dropped into multiple bowls in front of me. It was a slow food evening, but everything came efficiently and again, with so many smiles. By the end of the evening I was literally swooning from the overall experience and I knew that I had to write this review. There is nothing quite like it, please do yourself a favor and visit this restaurante with open heart, mind and stomach. (It's a lot of food!).

Food: The flavors here really nailed authentic Gujarati food. We kicked things off with the…read moreunlimited pani puri, and the pani itself was packed with flavor. They serve one table at a time for that, which works well overall, but during lunch when people are watching the clock, they might want to rethink that a bit. The main thali came with roti, rotla, and puri, all served piping hot at the table -- a nice touch. It included three vegetable dishes, plus dal and kadhi. We also got a couple of farsans on the side, hara bhara kabab and dhokla. The dhokla had good flavor but was on the denser side -- could use a lighter, softer texture. Rounding it out, there was khichdi and rice, and for dessert, mango ras and halwa. Service: was a mixed bag. Most of the staff were attentive, but a few clearly needed more training -- for an unlimited thali experience, you want staff who are proactively topping off your plate, not making you flag someone down for refills every time. One server in particular stood out as genuinely warm and on top of things -- honestly, he'd be a great person to train the rest of the team. Ambiance: The space itself was clean and thoughtfully laid out for a thali restaurant, with all four-top tables that made it easy for staff to move around and serve efficiently. All in all, the thali lineup was well thought out, and while service has room to improve, it wasn't bad by any means. I'll definitely be back with friends and family to introduce them to Gujarati food.

Once again, one of the few places that actually had everything was so exceptionally delicious. I…read moreordered the chicken curry with the South Indian spices. We ordered chili paneer and chole bhature Let's start with the paneer: super soft and succulent, better than most of the restaurants that are known for chili paneer. Let's move on to the chili bhature, which was spicy but right on the flavors. I know there are a couple of restaurants nearby that are known for their chole but in my opinion this is probably the best, at least in the area Now let's talk about the baturi, which, interestingly, is not made with white flour. It's a little bit healthier because they use whole wheat flour and semolina. It's still fried, so you do have the guilty pleasure, just not as guilty as a regular baturi. It absolutely works beautifully the way they make it of course, my favorite had to be the chicken. It was cooked to absolute perfection, with its moisture and the flavor of the gravy, while the spice was simple and you could actually feel a certain home-cooked quality to it. There was no pretentiousness. Very simple and I just Could not stop eating it. now here is something very different on their leftovers. The container they serve the food in is essentially your leftover container. If you have leftovers, all they do is give you a lid that fits the container beautifully, thus minimizing the use of additional plastics, etc. Even the container they give you seems to be an environmentally friendly one.

Very frustrating experience…read more I ordered food online and was told it would be ready in 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, my husband went to pick it up, only to be told it wasn't ready and would take another 15 minutes. I called to cancel the order because of the delay, but they told me it couldn't be canceled and that the food would be ready in five minutes. Five minutes later, my husband went back, and the food still wasn't ready. When I called again, they told me the food was already ready and asked where my husband was parked so they could bring it out. Also the man on the phone said that no one was in the restaurants to pick up the food, when clearly my husband went it. At that point, I was extremely frustrated. We had waited over 45 minutes, and when I asked to cancel the order, they refused and said the food was already made. I don't even believe anymore that the food is ok to eat, so we just threw it out. Very poor communication and customer service. After this experience, I would not recommend this place. Mind that none of them spoke good English and it was extremely hard to understand them. Customer is never right in their eyes. Now I have to dispute the transaction with my bank

Slow flavorful food…read more Food is a punch in the face of flavor. I tried both the masala and the biryani, both are good. FYI: most dishes take between 15-25 minutes to cook. Make sure you have time to enjoy the food. We were the only 2 ppl there and like 5 take out orders happened while we were there. Staff are friendly. Place is very clean. I got the egg biryani, the egg is hard boiled but it's got some kinda coating that is a bit chewy to get through. You get 3 eggs.Without the coating I would have loved it. It was hard to cut even with my fork. The biryani is very flavorful and fluffy.

So as much as I hate giving one star review, this place doesn't deserve your money. If you saw this…read moreplace on FB Reels or other marketing, save your time. There are many more Indian restaurants that serve good food. I do feel this place is also a scam, as the star chef from India doesn't even own or come to this place. There's a managing partner right here that owns it. Regardless, where do I start? It's overpriced and the staff does not even know how to wait tables. They've got these weird round chairs that is hard to sit on, eat and the wait staff can't go around you. No attention to detail and all the dishes seem they were over masalaed. I will give them that some presentations were great but overall we had a party of over 10 and spent $500 for mediocre food and horrible service. Waiters never asked for water, never bought serving spoons, the dessert spoon was a size of your of your finger. They seem to be trying too hard. I need to go back to basics.
