Wow, not often I come across ratings (3.8 in 2023) so disjoint with my experience. Our party of six had an absolutely lovely dinner at this hole-in-the-wall shopping stop restaurant. We might have been the only non-Indian patrons dining, but that really just spoke to its authenticity. Specialty is South Indian cuisine, which is a refreshing change, but also cater to the typical northern dishes one can find everywhere else. Won’t win any decor contests, but super family friendly and pleasantly surprised to discover they serve alcohol. Kids loved their mango lassis, and we loved our dosa specialties with chicken curry, mutton curry, madras fish, and guntur karam (spicy potato stuffed dosa). Our waiter was quick, efficient, polite, and helpful. Definitely a somewhat unsuspecting gem that we’d be happy to return to.

After spending time shopping, finally found a good place to dine in. Delicious food, great service. Briyani and sizzling tandoori chicken is must try. Kids loves the curd rice, we could feel the cook’s maturity in the curd rice taste.

One of the best biryani I ever had outside India definitely recommended this is really authentic biryani house in Rochester City, I ordered a hyderabadi biryani with chicken tikka masala and mango lassi all of the foods are excellent. Definitely recommend this place if you are looking for authentic Indian food place in Rochester City.

4.5 stars. This restaurant had not opened when I was living in Rochester and I really wish it had. This is the only authentic biryani I've had there! We came here on a week night but had reservations. Good thing because it was quite full! While they call themselves biryani house, they have south Indian cuisine primarily, some north Indian curries and the Biryanis. We ordered the Kodi vepudu (chicken vepudu), the Hyderabadi dum goat and chicken biryanis. They take time to get the orders in, so it allows you to actually have a conversation with your group. The vepudu was very good but too oily. That is the reason I give them 4.5 stars. Everything about it other than that was amazing! Spicy, masaledar and well-cooked as far as the chicken goes. This is definitely a dish for spice lovers. The biryanis were excellent! We ordered a spice level of 6, which I (who LOVES spice and always goes for highest) actually thought was decently spicy!! I didn't need to add any raita to calm it down. My brother, who took a 7 on the goat biryani, thought that was a little more spicy than he liked, so may be that would be the perfect level for me. Both biryanis were delicious. The rice was nice and separate. The meat (both goat and chicken) was really cooked well and the spice and flavors had seeped through it all. Quantities were great. We shared a biryani between two people and still didn't finish it. All in all, really happy with this place and will visit when I come back to Rochester!

Food was good. Beware there medium spice is also very spicy. For appetizers they need a little large portion. Plenty of seating area.

Everything was perfectly cooked! Wasn't crowded on a Saturday afternoon, (thus) prompt service. Loved the vijaywada chicken biryani. Chicken 65 is a must. Very different in taste than what we get elsewhere, but very soft and mouthwatering.

I visited for the buffet last weekend and was impressed by the variety. Unfortunately, almost every dish I tried was significantly under-seasoned and lacked the expected depth of taste. While the spread looks great, the execution on the actual seasoning (particularly salt and spice) needs much more attention to match the presentation. I’d love to see the kitchen focus more on quality over quantity in the future.

Do not order online if you want your dinner between 5-5.30pm. They will accept online order hours before 5pm even though the app says it will be ready at 4.45. I called at 5.02 to ask what the status was and they say it will be ready in 15 min. That was lie. They don’t have it ready for another 45 mins.

I used to visit this place in the past and the food quality, quantity and pricing were great. I visited this place recently and noticed the quality isn't like before, quantity is okay-ish and pricing is much higher than before. If the quality and quantity increased with price, that would've been okay but that's not the case here. We ordered Chicken Dum Biryani, Gobi Manchurian, Paneer Kadai and Malabar paratta. The biryani didn't taste as before and had less chicken. Paneer Kadai was good. Malabar paratta was dry and felt like it was microwaved. Gobi was okay, not that great. Overall, not gonna recommend this place. They're over charging and serving low quality food. Avoid this place if you can.

visited Hyderabadi Biryani House a few weeks ago in the afternoon, hoping to try some good Indian food. Unfortunately, the experience was disappointing because of the service. From the start, the staff member showed no courtesy — he just dropped the menu on the table without a word and didn’t even pour water into the glass. I ordered the house special masala dosa, which turned out to be much larger than I expected. Ideally, the server could have mentioned this to help me make a better choice since I was dining alone, but I let that pass. The real issue came when the food was served. The dosa was simply placed on the table in such a way that it was nearly impossible to eat properly. At the very least, I expected basic care in how the food was served. The food itself was decent, no complaints there, but the behavior and lack of basic hospitality left me very dissatisfied. I hope they improve their service, because food alone doesn’t make up for such an experience.

This place takeout is a joke, no matter what spice level you request they always end up putting junk in your order. This is my 3rd time I was ordering biriyani with Mild Spice level, and they end up serving Spicy level every time. And also the food in the takeout doesn't feel fresh, probably just reheated. Not ordering again from here. Spreading the awareness of this shitty service.
