Simple, unfussy strip-mall eatery offering quick-serve, straightforward Indian standards.

The service at Biryani Express is excellent, and the food? Phenomenal. We ordered the chicken curry, tandoori chicken, chicken dum biryani, the Manchurian chicken, Chana masala, paneer 65, garlic naan, and the Gulab jamun. Every single dish was delicious. Gulab jamun was over the top amazing- soooo yummy! This place DOES NOT DISAPPOINT!! Two thumbs up! Highly recommend!!

We celebrated Valentine’s Day here, and it turned out to be such a memorable experience. The ambiance was warm, festive, and perfect for a special evening. It was elegant without feeling overly formal, and the service matched the mood beautifully.
The Indian Churrasco Night theme was a standout. The variety and quality of the food made the whole experience feel indulgent and thoughtfully curated.
Buffet:
Salad, Appetizers, Curries, Chicken and Goat Biryani, and Live Omelette Station
Premium Churrasco-Style Meats
The highlight of the night was the tableside service of premium meats, each one cooked perfectly and seasoned with bold flavors. We enjoyed:
Tandoori Chicken, Chicken Murgh, Parmesan Chicken Wings, Lamb Tenderloin, Lamb Chops, Goat Chops, Jumbo Shrimp and Lobster Tail
Every item was tender, well-seasoned, and served hot. A great fusion of churrasco-style service with Indian spices.
Overall, it was a fantastic Valentine’s Day experience with great ambiance, attentive service, and delicious food. If they host another themed night like this, it’s absolutely worth attending.
We were also able to meet the chef, who generously took the time to talk about the recipes and share a bit about his background. His passion for food and creativity really came through, and it added a personal, memorable touch to the evening.

Just came back from the lunch buffet at Biryani Express. I was impressed by both the kindness of staff and presentation of the food. Food tasted fresh. The service was outstanding. Our server saw I had my hands full and brought water to my table. On top of that when I said I wanted naan she insisted she bring a fresh batch- which they allowed me to bring home. They were so sweet to my 3 year old who was all over the place. Will definitely be back to get my Indian food fix.

Tried the Gobi Manchuria—perfectly crispy and delicious. Loved the ambience, it felt welcoming and comfortable. Special mention to Bhargav for his excellent service; the way he checked in with us truly made it feel like home.

Did the buffet lunch today. Food was not hot enough is pretty much the only bad thing I have to say. Goat meat very tender. Things not too salty, not too spicy, tasted just right. Happy to see chicken wings!

We have been there multiple times. Almost every Friday, even when they have moved to new location – still we tried our best to go quite often. They should value customers and their service. We have asked for one onion / chili (no salad). They have charged $1 for chilli. $4 for one onion? Come on, should respect Indian community at least. If this have to be paid / charged – sure, happy to give but the plz do keep this in your menu. Don’t just loot people. We love helping community driven shops or small businesses but doesn’t mean charge customers whatever you feel good. In-fact, post dinner, we have requested if you could adjust, no luck. Even if they could have mentioned this before dine-in, we would have ordered and paid. Very bad experience, never going back and you lost forever 3 customers. Good luck.

In the past I’ve had their lunch buffet (weekdays). The buffet offers many protein options including goat, among others.
I loved the goat and chicken.
The food is definitely worth the price.
The staff is kind and friendly.
They are becoming one of a few restaurants that I will support on a regular basis.
I highly recommend them.

We literally make a 30-minute drive on weekends just to eat at Biryani Express—and we’d do it again without thinking twice. This food is MOUTH-WATERING. Not trying to be cheesy at all—this is the honest truth. It’s that GOOD.
The Chicken Dum Biryani, Chicken Chettinad, Lamb Biryani, Egg Puffs, and Masala Chai are all PHENOMENAL. Every single dish is packed with flavor and tastes like it was made with real care and authenticity.
On top of that, the customer service is always polite, warm, and welcoming, which just makes the whole experience even better. Amazing people + finger-licking food = a place I can’t stop raving about.
Don’t forget to ask for “Shri” ⭐️
Highly, highly recommend ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
