Reviews
Here’s what we tried:
Paya/Shorba – 2/5: Watery and overly salty, though the kulcha/shermal was good.
Kheema/Poori – 3/5: Kheema was flavorful, but the poori was cold and oily.
Mutton Marag – 1/5: Full of oil and lacking flavor. They replaced it, but the second one wasn’t much better.
Pepper Chicken – 3/5: Decent.
Chicken Dum Biryani – 3/5: Just okay.
Mutton Dum Biryani – 1/5: Meat was undercooked and tough.
Naan – 1/5: Dry and overcooked.
Was quite excited to visit after seeing the menu, but overall, the experience was disappointing and the food underwhelming.
Since this place opened, I’ve never missed asli authentic Hyderabadi food. The marag is next level. Everything here is amazing. I can confidently say their biryani is the best in town RANK 1 for authentic Hyderabadi biryani. It reminds me of Cafe Bahar back home and it’s my favorites!!
And let’s talk about the malai bun oh my god! Just by looking at the texture, you’d rate it 100/100. The feel, the texture, the taste just wow! After work, I always stop by for chai and malai bun they’re both simply delicious.
I asked Gynashwar whether they make everything homemade, and he proudly told me they make everything fresh in-house nothing is store-bought. I even asked to take a look at their back kitchen and the staff were super clean and busy preparing fresh cakes, pastries, and puffs. I could see the passion in their work and I genuinely loved the process.
From the bottom of my heart I want to say I love you people! The way you’re making food with such care and authenticity you’ll definitely become number one in town very soon, I promise! From cream buns to puffs, pastries, and everything else they truly make the best in town.
I even started ordering cakes from them for birthdays and parties. Everyone who’s tried them has loved the taste and been surprised at how good it is!!!
Overall, everything is top-notch and I would rate it
We tasted mouthwatering dishes – Samosa, Bun Maska, Osmania Biscuits, Paya, Bheja Fry, Biryani and amazing dessert.
The staff, the owners were very hospitable, warm and friendly. The overall experience was memorable, I would certainly go back.
If you are visiting and need suggestions. I suggest seeking the chef’s recommendation. You’ll love it!
Idli and sambar is next level. Idli is soft and they gave with karam podi .
Mysoor bonda is good with less oil.
Their sweet is good.
But as you enter into restaurant there is some bad smell, not sure what it is
On my second visit, tried boti fry with poori and biryanis. Absolutely delicious! You’ll never be disappointed. They have ample parking and it’s away from traffic. Had a pleasant evenings both the times.
Chicken majestic wasn’t authentic. We got chewy hard chicken.
The osmania cookies were good though.
The Highlights:
=============
Exceptional Food: The standouts were the chicken curry, which was rich, complex, and aromatic with floral notes of cardamom and clove, and the savory chicken puffed pastry. Both were delicious and highly recommended.
Excellent Service: The staff was incredibly friendly and patient, offering helpful guidance as we navigated the menu for the first time.
Clean & Pleasant Atmosphere: The restaurant is tidy and provides a decent, casual atmosphere for a quick lunch or dinner.
Considerations for Diners:
=====================
Service Style: Be aware that food is served on disposable plates with plasticware, aligning with a fast-casual dining experience.
Menu Navigation: The digital menu lacks pictures or descriptions, which can be challenging for those unfamiliar with the cuisine. We also noticed some menu items (like Tandoori options) appeared on the screen only after we ordered, and the Biryani was unfortunately unavailable during our visit.
Authentic Preparation: The chicken is served bone-in and with skin, which is traditional for this style of cuisine. Diners accustomed to boneless, skinless meat should be prepared for this authentic presentation.
A Minor Note: We sampled the chai, which was flavorful but had a slightly bitter aftertaste (potentially from evaporated milk) that wasn’t to our personal preference.
Overall, we had a fantastic meal and will definitely return to further explore the menu. This is a great spot for authentic, high-quality food in a casual setting.
