Good Restaurant ! Great biriyani , but AC now a days it's not working ! Average price not that costly. Not cheap ! Cold drinks are costly ! We need to pay per glass 30₹ it's very small . And place like that it's doesn't worth that much cost !

Many times I crossed this place but never liked the logo, however I tried online ordering with Zomato. My choice was combo 5 with Mutton Biryani, chicken kabab, raitha and one boiled egg. Biryani tastes good and it's above paradise biryani ( Huh!).

For biriyani, a must visit. It is always crowded and I love it. Try tasting the kebabs, as good as you can imagine. Although I found the service to be a bit slow but when you are with friends, who cares. It is quite Pocket friendly too.

Stepped here during hunger time after having loads of ice cream indeed , which made my stomach to cause more hunger and sweeter ! So to balance my sweetness had spicy biryani ! 

This restaurant is known for its Emu Biryani but never had it here .

This restaurant is divided into A/c sections sharing a common kitchen and waiting hall . 

Very generous and advisable staff  in choosing food and service too . 

The interiors are not upto the high mark but a decent and homely interiors and having a aroma all the time of Biryani , which is a trademark here . 

Had Handi Chicken Biryani , Chicken 65 , curd rice and aerated Drink . 

Handi Chicken Biryani : Perfect quantity for 2 people and the biryani had rich amount of spices and made my appetite happy with balancing the sweetness . The chicken was tender and cooked for its own level of fame and bought on the table with aromas flying through out nose and makes us to have it as soon as possible ! Hot and Hot and smoke popping out from Chicken ! The  Mirchi ka salan perfectly accompanied it and added it more richer taste ! 

Chicken 65 : The 65 ingredients made into literately around 4 to 5 ingredients is this generations techniques ! The Chicken was as usual tender and made it to have a proper fry with sauces and spices to put into it ! Something tasty and makes you less hungry with this ! Perfectly a combo with Biryani ! 

Curd Rice : Too much of spiciness our body can't bare . This made me to have this . perfectly thick and cool curd rice served . Something really relaxing having that tadka upon it ! Something in the end is really divine ! 

PS :
Can drink : If you want to digest your food then you must drink this ! Balance Diet ! 

Not a heavy wallet attack ! VFM :) Will visit again .

One hungry afternoon we landed up here for a party. Ordered for chicken manchow, chicken hot and sour soups. Soups were good maintaining their consistency and taste. Next we ordered chilli mushroom chicken drumsticks and pepper chicken. All of them were equally good, Mushroom could have been a lil on the softer side. For spice lovers don't miss the pepper chicken.Next we ordered for boneless chicken biryani which was blended perfectly with right amount of spices.Decent place with cozy ambiance. Service is quite slow but overall a a good experience.

Really hungry on a weekend and after a movie in PVR, we had a huge craving for biryani a short drive and saw central biryani, as the name suggested ordered chicken boneless biryani and crispy baby corn. Corn is good, Biryani was nicely cooked and tasted awesome. Service was prompt and not too heavy on pocket as well.

Had chicken Biriyani handi, was good and had a kind of traditional taste due to which when I started eating, was a bit impressed with it. Good place to hang out also. Given 3.5 as I want it to improve more and also because I had only biriyani so don't know about its other dishes.

If someone can make the best Mughlai biryani in this world then its Paradise. I can bet a fortune on it. I have't had better chicken & mutton biryani's ever anywhere on this planet. The biryani's here are extremely fragrant & great taste as it should be.
Kudos to this place. I wish they had an outlet in south delhi as well, it would have been a super duper hit.

The first time with family which follows only vegism and that too at a biryani centre, we were not to sure.

But then when we ordered veg biryani and ate it was too good.
The perfect taste of the masalas and the rice blended together was brilliant.

One of the better places to enjoy some Biryani near the Panjagutta area and I rate this probably the best after Meridian in this area. I loved their natukodi chicken biryani apart from their regular biryani. Its something to be really enjoyed.

So finally after hearing a lot of rave reviews regarding their EMU Biriyani I had high hopes and was eagerly awaiting the weekend to drive off and try some different meat for a change.

So the parking can be bit of a problem and after the bike parked and well set for a high-hoped lunch I was guided up the stairs by the Takeaway guys below as couldn't find the stairs, and to find a Today's Special Menu hung by the wall of the entrance. My friend and me chuckled at each other reading EMU as EMO as displayed on the white-board. Then as we entered along a long passageway we were comfortably seated by the waiter and I chose a table for 2 in a corner and it was well past 4 and almost closing time and the waiters were leaving to have their lunch. The restaurant had a minimalistic feel wasn't too overcrowded until then and the waiter who served me I think was having his 1st day and was a shaky to understand the items that I wanted to order.

First up we ordered the Prawn Ghee Roast and as suggested by a waiter some Chicken Nadukodi. The prawns fresh and tender had a distinct ghee smell accompanying it but still something was missing in the dish. So i myself squeezed some lime over it and that bought out a distinct tangy flavor and worked wonders with the Prawn Ghee Roast. Chicken Nadukodi was quite spicy and had a lot of curry leaves as with any Andhra Dish, but the chicken pieces served weren't quite good but the dish in itself quite flavorsome.

So done with the starters and also with a jug of water to calm down my tongue for the Chicken Nadukodi. I was finally ready for the dish that everyone was raving about, the 'EMU' biriyani.

As said before my waiter was having his 1st day at work so didn't quite know how to serve the biriyani and I ended up having all the white rice on top and my friend the masala rice at the bottom and the nearly all the emu meat. So I requested the waiter that it's ok and we shall serve ourselves and divvying up proper mixture between ourselves we sunk ourselves in our biriyani.

Emu meat for me was something that is kind of a middleman between the Chicken and Mutton. Not quite soft and tender as broiler chicken while not so hardened or oily like the mutton. It's quite fibrous and leaves an aftertaste and many wouldn't find a difference with chicken. The biriyani in itself was really good and I ended having a satisfying lunch and great start to something new.

The waiter even though new still hung around and inquired and didn't leave till the last minute and even though our languages didn't match I was quite enjoying his fumbling of the dish and didn't mind the service coz he was being courteous and I should be one to understand the pressure of a 1st day on the job.

All in all a definite revisit from my side and many more dishes to be had and the 'Emu Biriyani' something to tag my other friends along for the taste of something new.

I had heard rave reviews of the Biryani in this restaurant from foodie friends. Recently a friend told me that they have introduced Emu bird preparations in this restaurant as special dishes. This prompted me to visit here for a dinner after a movie show at Imax.

The restaurant is situated on the busy Punjagutta Road. Parking facilities are limited. They have a takeaway on the roadside. A board next to the takeaway advertises the special emu dishes.

The restaurant is in the first floor. The AC Family section has about 10-12 tables and is a clean and nice place. The menu lists Hyderabadi and Chinese dishes. We were quick to order Emu Biryani, Ginger chicken wings and Chicken ghee roast, dishes which were recommended by our friends.

The food came after 10 minutes. We started with the chicken wings and ghee roast along with rumali rotis. I liked the ghee roast masala, but the chicken seemed to have been boiled before and put in the masala at the fag end of cooking - the masala had not seeped it. The wings were a Chinese preparation, tasted decent.
And finally the emu biryani - one of the better cooked biryanis I had. Emu meat is red meat, but softer than mutton. It tasted really succulent. The biryani portion had good amount of masala, which had the right amount of spices. The dish made our day.

At the end of the meal, we were informed that they have emu fry too. But we were too full.

The bill for 3 came to around Rs 750. Will go back here for trying out the other dishes.

Went to this place after hearing fairly good reviews about it from the Hyderabad Foodies Group. My main motive was to try emu biriyani there. I had never tasted an emu before and was really eager to do so.

This is a simple Fishland types restaurant, though the decor is much brighter and happier. The staff seated us quickly and gave us the menu. We had already decided what to order before coming here and quickly told them to give us Emu Biriyani and Chicken Ghee Roast along with Ginger Chicken Wings as starters.

The Ginger Chicken was a little undercooked but the gravy was really awesome. The wings I presume were dipped in some saucy paste and fried like normal batter frys - this is what gave it a unique taste. It was more or less a chinese preparation.

Then came the emu biriyani with the Chicken Ghee Roast. Though the Chicken Ghee Roast was very good, the emu biriyani really stole the show. Emu meat is more fibrous than chicken but lesser than mutton. The biriyani here was Hyderabadi style (not Andhra style) and I can safely say left the likes of Paradise and Sarvi way way behind. After I over-stuffed myself, the waiter gave me a sheepish grin and prompted me to try the Emu Fry the next time I visited. The Emu tasted so good that a part of my mind urges me to go there tomorrow itself :P

Cost for 3 - RS 800/-

Have been to this place umpteen number of times, and each time the food has been really, really good. If there's one thing I love in a restaurant, its consistency in taste. I have experimented widely with the menu, and not one item has ever been bad, or even so-so, and that to me is both astonishing as well as gratifying.

The biryani is really tasty, and I personally like this much better than the much-touted Paradise Biryani. Both the mutton and chicken versions are finger-licking good. Other items to try here:
Ginger Chicken Wings (must must try)
Chilly Baby Corn
Mushroom Pepper Fry
Garlic Chicken Starter
Chicken Ghee Roast (lovely depth of flavour)
Egg Fried Rice
Dal Fry (thick and aromatic, and served in a quaint little bucket!)

There is really nothing to fault on the food front. The place is wallet-friendly as well and a meal for two would set you back by 350-400 rupees or so. They provide home delivery as well and within a decent time interval. However, the ambience is very drab and ordinary, and its a better place to satisfy your taste buds than to spend an evening with friends. They always play a tape of a bunch of Bollywood chart-toppers of the last decade or so, and it can be surprisingly fun to hear those cheesy, near-forgotten songs while tucking into a mouth-watering plateful of food at its best.

I have been to this place and ordered out too alot from this place; and is much better than i expected it to be. The place is normally decorated, not too much show off. The food is good (from what i have tried till now). Must tries are :
Chicken Biryani, Butter Chicken, Prawns Fry.
The waiters are a bit non-responsive when the place is crowded; which is a bit irking as they just ignore you. But i would not take this into the factor to judge this place.
The prices are decent and this place is worth the money.

This is indeed one of the finest restaurants to go for a Biryani treat. I have just tried Veg. Briyani but heard from my friends that non-veg Biryani is too good. Apart from the Biryani, North Indian food is good too.
The ambiance is just fine..
Coming to their service, as soon as you enter the restaurant you are guided to your table and the order is taken promptly, but the food arrives late.. when the restaurant is less crowded, you will find a courteous attendant always around your table, the story is however different when the place is crowded.
Irrespective, everyone should visit this place once in Hyderabad.

This Big restaurant is in Gokul Towers (opp model house) in Punjagutta generally will be missed by people as this road is a heavy traffic road.
I used to work in a company which was in the same building of this fine restaurant. I have been to this restaurant may be 20 times in last 2 years. For me atleast, this is the best Biriyani I've had till now. Most interesting part of this biriyani is that I don't need that mirchi ka salan nor the raita as a side dish, without these also i can have the Biriyani smoothly.
Although many of us may not agree as taste & beauty lies with the be-holder.

Anyways, as we enter the restaurant through a spiral stair case, you can see a fine long area to walk towards the dinning sections, 3 different dinning sections to accommodate customers. Around 350 customers can be entertained at one time. Parcel section is available on the ground floor (Resto is in 1st floor). If you don't get a seat you have sofa's to sit for your turn.

The Food, the BIRYANI is very good (For me), Chicken biryani is really good, quantity served is good too. If you order Mutton biryani, you can be ditched at times. Other items too are of good taste & quantity of the items are also justified. The pocket will not be harmed at all. You will be satisfied.

The service is not very great but not too bad also. Atleast the basic needs are taken care of. As usual most of the waiters are "Oriya ", they will speak Orindi (oriya + hindi). There will be few captains who will guide you to "their" choice of seats. If the seats are full, they will allow / guide you to sofa's to wait for your turn.

Ambiance is Ok, nothing special, yes you can see some crafts, paintings here & there. Considering the location / the service / the ambiance, the price of the items are good, not very costly at all. All the dining areas have AC"s too.

Food / Taste - 4/5
Ambiance - 3/5
Service 3/5
Wallet Factor - 4/5

Final Rating - 4/5... Just because the Biryani was Very Superb !!! So just jump in once !!!

Well famous biriyani in hyderabad, quantity of take away biriyani is huge and may suffice two persons. They are using big long basumati rice, instead of small rice. Since from kerala didnt liked that much since the rice was long and biriyani is dry compared to dum biriyani of kerala. Good and quick service. They accept card transactions also. Located in a too busy one way street. Parking is difficult, but little waiting time only.
