I ordered the special biryani, a mix of chicken 65 and boneless chicken chunks, and it was very flavorful. Every bite was packed with spice and taste, and the chicken was a great touch. The ambience, though, isn't something I'd recommend for dining in. Takeout is the way to go here, and I'd happily order it as often as I can. read more

Can't say enough about Roohi's. It is my family's #1 spot to get butter chicken. They never disappoint and are always fast and friendly. They have the best butter chicken with lots of flavor. Please go and try this place! read more

5star rating for their goat haleem, I've been having haleem from this place for the last 2 years. I can say it's the best haleem I have had here in USA. Goat haleem here costs $22 and it's totally worth your money. Not sure if it's available the whole year but I only had during Ramadan month. Recently tried their chicken 65 and loved it. Tried their spcl Chicken biryani, not so good. read more

We came across this hole in the wall while picking up meat from Shaan Halal Meat( highly recommended) . The food was authentic Hyderabadi and owner Roohi was hospitable and personable. Ambience was simple and we enjoyed the aquarium which Roohi has cared for several years. read more

i ordered chicken 65 and goat biriyani. While their biriyani is out if the world, their chicken 65 was terrible. It was basically chicken tikka massala (dual use) with some curry leaves thrown over it. I had high expectations for 65, but stand very disappointed. Next time I will stick to biriyani only. 65 was a total waste of money. read more

Great biryani and welcoming service I always get takeout highly reccommend the special biryani

I have never wrote a review on a restaurant in my life. This place was recommended to us through a friend of a friend. Well this was a indian food restaurant and it was the worst we ever had. I should have stopped when there was no one in the reasturant and the place looked like a cheap hot dog stand. I am rating this 1 star soley based in the food. The bread was the worst I ever had, the poori was flat and greasy and the naan was like eating white bread with no flavor. We ordered butter chicken and chicken Tikka masala and there was an inch of grease that we had to pour off the top. 1 dish was filled 3/4 full, 1 was not even half full. Since eating the food last night, I have had the worst heartburn in my life. read more

If you like Hyderabadi biryani, this is the place to go. Definitely one of the best biryanis in NJ. Their haleem is a must try. Service is pretty quick and it's a simple place. Nothing fancy about this place, but just good food for sure! read more

My favorite palace to get some chicken 65 and chicken Biryani! Small restaurant but owner with big heart Love to support small businesses! read more

Roohi's would find a mention in the list of top 3 authentic Hyderabadi biryani spots in NJ. Excellent flavors with distinct notes of the garam masala and concoction of spices make this biryani a special one. Whether you like it spicy or mild, Roohi and her team have you covered. The restaurant also has a fairly large variety of other non vegetarian and vegetarian specialties but biryani is their forte. Been there many time and will go there often in the future whenever I get the biryani craving. Food flavor: 4.5/5 Ambiance : 3/5 Service : 4.5/5 read more

So tasty their goat Haleem and chicken dum Biriyani . Highly recommended. Their quality is top notch read more

Best paki style biryani in town! Not to be missed if you're looking for solid home style fare nearby

We have been buying from Roohi for the past 10 years. Long back when she used to have a small outlet in a Food court. I'm so proud and happy to see a female entrepreneur grow in her business and have her own restaurant today. Her biryani is the best biryani from Central Jersey. It is her speciality and I highly recommend it! read more

We ordered a catering tray of Khubani Ka Meetha. Tasted like a kids apricot purée with cream. Very disappointed with the order. taste the item on the menu before you place a catering order. read more

We went in by chance last night Loved the food, perfectly cooked mutton Sookha(appetiser) and equally yummy Keema. The best things were tandoori roti and naan sawere just perfect Food was neither too oily or full of spices I'm going back today again read more

I have had the opportunity to eat Roohi's Biryani multiple times. My favorite is the Goat Biryani. Very tasty and spiced with the just the right amount of flavor, heat and deliciousness. Usually, goat is a fatty meat, but here, they cook the goat enough to help all of the fat melt away and in the process, it loses the gamey smell as well. I enjoyed their food so much, that I took a family portion of the chicken biryani to a friends house who also complimented the food. read more

Ordered some butter chicken, and chicken biryani for takeout from here. Butter chicken- really well cooked, flavorful and good portion size. It was nice and creamy served with a side of decent amount of rice. Chicken biryani - I loved the chicken biryani, it was really flavorful, right amount of spice level, garnished with fried onions and cilantro (yum). It was served with a side of Salan (currry sauce) and raita, which was great. The only downside was it didn't have an egg with it and the amounts of chicken pieces were less. I only got one little thigh and a really big bone in it. Overall, it's a great place to order from as the food is authentic, flavorful, comes close to home cooking, decently priced, and good portion size. On the downside, maybe my biryani was a fluke in terms of chicken pieces. But I will surely order from here again. read more

I ordered a small tray of mutton dum biryani today it was very disappointing with too much of oil and no masala in the rice ... taste was too bland..Not worth the money. read more

The service was excellent and very personal Best chicken biryani, baghare began, chicken curry and freshly cooked chapati. The double ka meetha and Khubani ka meetha perfectly Hyderabadi. We enjoyed talking to the owner who was very pleasant and friendly Liked biryani so much that brought some home read more

Went back here today pregnant and craving something flavorful. Most restaurants are closed on a Monday but Roohi's came through. The voice on the phone was very accommodating took notes on the spice level and delivered to the cause. I'm one happy content mommy! Will come visit again when I'm in the area. Highly recommend the Haleem, biryani, any of the mutton dishes, kurbabi ka meetha(puréed apricots served with heavy cream) a Hyderabadi favorite and khadu ka kheer. read more

Order Haleem and Goat Biaryani. Both are good and i liked goat biryani very much as the goat pieces are tender and juicy, cooked very well. If anyone to eat goat biryani they can try in Roohi's. Owner aunt is friendly. read more

We have eaten their biriyani many times over the last 4-5 years from the time they were in Desi Food Galaxy. The quality control of their biriyani is amazing. The biriyani that we ate their last week tasted the exact same as that 3-4 years ago. The same wonderful flavor in the rice, the same softness of the chicken, and the same aroma of spices. Last week, we also ordered some other dishes like chilli paneer and they were all excellent. Very happy with their food and will be back soon. read more

The biryani is practically one of the best I've had. We always get the family style which feeds our family of three easily. Both the chicken and mutton biryani are amazing. The other stuff on the menu is ok. Haven't tried it but most others have told me their naan breads are not the best. But honestly, for me the biryani is what I go here for. read more

Roohi's Biryani Adda - fork and a salad in a plastic container - Indian Near Me - Franklin Park, New Jersey

The food is quite good. Typically most biryani joints have no control on the spice level. Even when giving specific instructions. Roohi's food is pretty delicious. Love the biryani and chicken 65. read more

Best biryani place in NJ. The meat to rice ratio is perfect and the meat pieces are really well cooked and flavorful. You can taste the quality of meat that is used for the biryani. Chicken 65 and the variety of Goat curries are worth trying. read more

Disappointed. Dropped in today to pick up a chicken biryani for $11-12. The biryani was mostly white rice!!!!! It had little to no flavor, the egg on top was cold... so I just ended up throwing it out. I could've made white rice at home myself lol. Wishing I had gone literally anywhere else for lunch. Can't speak for anything else though but will definitely not be coming back. read more

Unexpectedly good Biryani !! Taste was great, both the rice and the mutton was appropriately cooked and full of flavor. Best part is it's not greasy at all ! Well done Hope Roohi can maintain the quality and taste !! read more

Ruhi is the loveliest lady who used to have a stall at Desi Food Galaxy. I've been enjoying her biryani (and her liver fry and fish fry and chicken 65,l) for several years now and was thrilled to learn she opened her own place. My friend and I stuffed ourselves silly for lunch 2 days ago - we got gobi 65, paneer tikka masala, egg biryani and garlic naan. I love Ruhi's biryani so much that I served her chicken biryani as a Thanksgiving dinner side for 25 of my family and friends last November. Having eaten Indian food all my life, I know that Ruhi has a very special talent with just the perfect combination of spices in her dishes. Cheers to you, Ruhi, and best of luck with your new restaurant! read more

Great food. One of the few places that serves authentic biryani. Others are an apology!

Absolutely delicious! People writing nasty reviews should be ashamed at themselves for tearing down an establishment that is trying to thrive during a pandemic. Keep it up, Roohi! We can't wait to come back for more take out. The paneer Tikka masala transported me back to the Dhabas in India/ so so so good! read more

Adda's special dum biryani: delicious. Crispy, lightly deep-fried boneless chicken on top; bone-in chicken in the rice. haleem: delicious. Well-spiced; cashews and fried onions on top Hyderabadi shrimp curry: incredible. Took the time to cook the onions properly into a rich base. read more

They have removed egg in the last 2 Haleems (which is a goat stew) I bought . That's so cheap of them . Also no lemon. If you look at pics posted here by other patrons, you will know what I'm talking about(the missing stuffs). Number of cashews were also very few. What's wrong with these people? read more

Woohoo!! A hidden treasure in a small plaza... I ordered the special Chicken Biryani, the presentation itself made me happy. The chicken 65 toppings already started looking delicious before i began digging in it. The taste is fantastic, the quantity is sufficient and the chicken quality is superb!! I am waiting to try their haleem and goat biryani, till next time drooling on their biryani taste... read more

The worst biryani I ever had. I am sorry, they don't know what is dum biryani. Their chicken boneless biryani was the worst, they made it with some leftover yesterdays chicken something, the worst it could be, yuck. Never again. read more

Roohi aunty's Biryani is lip smacking. Period. I was big fan of Paradise Biryani on Oaktree road but when i had Biryani from the Adda its the best i have eaten in the US till date. The meat is delicious and cooked really well. The rice is flavorful and non spicy which is the magic of the real authentic biryani. I eat this Biryani every week and iam not bored at all. Top of that Aunty's love in cooking and serving makes all the difference.. read more

Tasty haleem and Hyd mutton dum Biryani...bought twice so far and second time the taste was even better...nothing comes close to Biryani

I was craving for some good biryani and found this place on yelp. I read the reviews and wasn't really sure but decided to go with it. Although a little expensive than other places around the biryani was good, not very spicy but little too oily. It was like the authentic Hyderabadi biryani which is a nice thing about this place. I had vegetable biryani and chilly panner. Chilly panner was okay, wouldn't buy that again but would definitely try their biryani again. And $18 for veg biryani, definitely had a little more expectation from this place. read more

Customer service has gone down. They make mistake is order and tell that they'll honor replacement next time you come. When you call to get replacement along with other order, response is "oh that was so long time time ago" 2 weeks is apparently long time! And this for regular customer. read more
