This restaurant is so famous for its name since ages i would say. We never regret to travel 30 kms to just grab some awsomeness
Must try:
1. Mutton pulao
2. George Supreme
3. Chicken biryani
4. Mutton chops
If you are a tandoori and butter chicken and biryani lover and haven't been to George, you have definitely missed the best in the city. Old is gold!
Ambiance is good and it gives cozy vibes best for families.Speciality of this place is surely the nonveg food.Food is served with proper hygiene. It's too crowded on weekends space isn't sufficient.If you are in Pune camp area one must visit this place surely it won't disappoint you. My favourite dishes are chicken tandoori, chicken lollypop(because I'm big fan of their starters), I always prefer to order chicken kolhapuri and chicken tikka masala as I'm not big fan of their other garvy but surely you can give a try.
TIP: Fresh lime soda is iceing on cake with starters.

Rotisserie Chicken is a must try
I'm dying to taste it again
Just waiting for this lockdown to get over go there have the rotisserie click a photo and post it here
Haha it was always so delicious that it never crossed my mind to take a photo first
I could give this place more than 5 stars because I really live the chicken tikka biryani here.I have been coming here since mu childhood days but the taste still remains autheti. As ever.Staff is really nice and well behaved.I cannot pick out on anything negative about the place!Paradise for biryani lovers!
George is one of the legendary restaurant in pune, serving from long time
Had ordered there signature dish the chicken rotisserie and had prawns biryani
Chicken rotisserie is quoted with flavourfull masala right on every bite, from the look of it you will feel that its a regular tandoori chicken, but taste wise its not.chicken was well marinated perfect taste and juicy.
Prawns biryani on the other hand was yummy, prawns was perfect watery and tender
Staff is well aware and ambiance is simple.
Surely a must visit place if you plan to eat around MG road.
One of the Best place to have food in pune !

The classic classic George Restaurant! Such a historic landmark and place that has stood the times of trendy, funky, outlets opening all around it...but it still stays our favourite for the reason that the quality and flavour has not reduced over the years.
Service is super quick, so you must also order super quick ;) This place is always busy and I'm glad they don't have hours for dining. I remember once we were craving a good biryani and visited late afternoon off peak hours. We still got seated and were served by courteous staff.
Here are some of the items we recommend:
• Butter Chicken - Boneless for the lazy ones ;) By far one of the best butter chickens in MG/ East street. So so good and goes really well with naan.
• Masala Papad - How can you not start the meal with this!
•Kebabs - Chicken Banjara, Chicken Tikka, Chicken Pahadi - all good choices for kebab lovers
•Murg Mussalam - Very thick, rich chicken gravy loaded with that good spice flavour.
•MUTTON/ CHICKEN biryani - You can't visit George and not have a biryani! Classic flavours - perfect ratio of the masala rice, chicken and white basmati rice.
• Caramel custard + Fruit salad with ice cream - End your meal with this and thank us later for reviving your childhood memories :')
Some of the best Mutton I've ever eaten. Very juicy ,tender and tasty.
Try Mutton bhuna , Kolhapuri or frankly anything on the menu.
One of the top restaurants for nonveg lovers in Pune..
One of the best Tandoori and chicken biryani in Pune...I just loved it...mouth watering...pure Mughlai food...not at all spicy good amount of Chicken Non oily Prompt service...cleanliness Hygiene...and food OMG I m in love with it ❤
I have never had better tandoori chicken than this one Ever! Just tooooooo delicious.. 🙌🏻
It was very well cooked, tender n juicy just in perfect amount. It had this yummy buttery taste to it. They don't call this restaurant Authentic just for any reason!
Looking forward to go back again soon. 😍
This is very old restaurant in the town which service non veg food , good food , worth to try .crowd is not what you may be expecting at good place .
Me and my friends visited this famous place and got massively surprised. Heres how: food is ‘home’ here. Pure seduction to your tastebuds . Amazing and how! WOW! Anyway staff is efficient and polite and very fast serviced as well. Prices are on the higher side as compared to the quantity. One biriyani for one person kinda situation. Overall i would definitely recommend this place to all. Enjoy.
George is one of the oldest and the best. The George team has maintained their food quality consistently. Though they are not gung ho on ambiance; their focus on quality food and customer service is praise worthy.
The chicken lolly pop and the chiken biryanis are the best. The chicken pieces are soft and tender enough and it just melts in the mouth. Moreover the Biryani rice is yummy. The food is not greasy and you can easily wash them down your throat with a cool sweet lime soda.
I have been to George on numerous occasions and I have never been disappointed. Though the waiting time is sometimes high; however luckily yesterday we could get our 6 seats within 15 mins wait time.
George has been around since before India got Independence. That not only makes this place iconic but also makes this place historic. Lot of changes have taken place in mg road but George has been standing there without flinching a bit. Had been craving for mutton biryani for quite some time. Somehow plans to that side were not materialising so finally ordered from there. The packaging is spill proof. I received the packets piping hot. The chicken clear soup was actually a heartwarming chicken broth. Each spoonful was a heavenly delight. The mutton biryani was wow with the perfect long grain rice. It was just the right amount of spicy. There were 7-8 pieces of mutton. 1 portion can easily be shared between two people. The mutton was slightly stringy. With the biryani you also get raita, lemon wedges and onion slices which is quite rare ever since onion prices have increased. Overall a gud experience.
I ordered chicken biryani and tandoori chicken. Biryani is very tasty and masala is too spicy and not too sweet...it is just perfect. Chicken tandoori is also nice..you must try paneer and naan
This place is situated on the busy street of East Street. It has been the go to place for great food for many people . There is usually waiting in the evening since theres alot of demand but you get seated in 15-20 mins.
Once we were seated we were given glasses for water. Before the waiter could pour water i noticed there was lipstick mark on one of the glasses which shows that they don't clean the cutlery well at all. Due to that i checked all the other glasses and all of them were very very dirty. I still cannot believe i saw i complete lip mark of pink lipstick on my glass.
When i said that , he got new glasses which weren't any cleaner .. then we got spoons and forks... Those were even worse.
There was masala and oil stain on the spoons and forks . Anyone with an OCD will lose their appetite at this point.
Then came the manager. Always in a hurry to make us order food. He didn't let us ordered but instead ordered food for us on his own... By saying mutton roganjosh is good, have that ... Don't have chicken cutlets but have kebab...
Coming to the food , we had , chicken biryani , mutton kebab , reshmi kebab , mutton roganjosh
The mutton dish was very spicy but full of flavour.
Mutton kebab was okay
Chicken biriyani came with a raita and boiled egg... Which was delicious.
Would just like to have good friendly staff
This is one of the oldest restaurant in Pune. Located at MG road, camp area.
The food quality is really good. The tandoori chicken and biryani is the signature dish of this restaurant.
Outside the restaurant there is a pan stall, don't forget to test a sweet cold pan from that stall.

Although we stay other side of the town but we love George biryani and we make sure to pack it if that side of the town. It's the best if nothing works we order from dunzo. Their chicken tikka biryani is the hero of our parties
The first place I went to, that too immediately after checking into my hotel was George. The major reason - their Mutton Biryani. And it was worth it. Simply the best Mutton Biryani I have ever had, huge portion, good portion of Mutton which was brilliantly cooked and perfect taste. My trip couldn't have started in a better manner.
Also had Chicken Cutlets which were decent and Caramel Custard which can be better. What I have surely missed is their Grilled Chicken!
The ambiance is old school and I liked it that way, if places like these start stressing on their ambiance, they would lose the charm. Service is neat and prices are reasonable. Anyways, a must visit if you are in Pune.
We loved the friendly service and great food served in a cozy and family friendly environment.
It was after a very long day that we decided to resort to having dinner outside. Out of all the places around, all the way from pcmc we decided to come here. And I am so happy n glad that we decided for George Restaurant.
We ordered for chkn sweet corn and hot n sour soup ( no pics coz we wanted to have it hot). And then what other than the famous Biryani. We ordered for mutton biryani. Mutton so soft..well cooked and the grains wre delicious. Not so spicy. Just right. Loves it totally.
We also later ordered multi. Mawa kulfi n dry fruit kulfi.... the dry fruit kulfi today is my best flavor or all.... every bite was like hmmmm so yummmm...
Good food..good service. Infact u will see a nepali guy moving around. He smiles at everyone and ensures that everyone is happy.
Great place indeed. Thanks George Restaurant.
The best place in town to satisfy tastebuds.
Everything here is super yumm. Order any biryani or any curry and u won't get disappointed. We ordered
▪️Chicken Biryani
▪️ Tandoori Chicken
Both were super delicious. The chicken was soft and juicy.
A must visit place. ♥️♥️

Wow amazing the biryani

i will love to visit again
and also the service
was so fast ......
Visit here for some amazing Biryanis
After a long lazy delay we finally went to Gorge. This isn’t really just a Restrau but it’s a legend by itself. For more fancy people there is a good Air Conditioning place but considering the atmo, we choose to sit downstairs (which turned out a good decision). Within minutes the place got full and buzzing. The Rotisserie chicken was Ok ish as I felt it should had the marinations deep through however the Butter chicken, Roti and Biryani are really good. Roti particularly was soft and didn’t felt chewy at all. The steal was when the bill came and it was surprisingly super pocket friendly. Worth every penny 😀
The only place in pune which serves good rotisserie chicken. Whenever I am in within 5km radius of it I make sure I go there, not just rotisserie chicken, you'll find their hyderbad chicken amazing. Must visit once.
Good location, an old joint, economical, the sweet corn soup was good, roasted chicken with mint chutney was also well cooked. Had ordered dish of the day murton chops which too was very good. A good place to eat tasty food.
I had been to this restaurant in the last week at the peak hours for dinner. The food is good for the price they offer. Some of the attendants may not be very welcoming but one or two who understands that customers will be leaving the restaurant if asked to change the table twice after occupying the space. Felt sad when we were asked to move to other tables twice. Fortunately one of the waiters guided is to sit at the same place and arrange other tables for more people coming in. Thanks! I was really hungry.
The Mutton Biryani was so scrumptious, the subtle aroma of spices blended completely with the well cooked mutton. This place is treat for a foodie. The staff was humble and polite. For dessert, we ordered a triple sundae, that too complemented our meal very well.
George Restaurant is the go-to place for sumptuous and mouthwatering eating delights. The wooden sitting and elegant support staff adds to the amazing food that they serve here.
During my visit, I witnessed a lot of happy families making nice memories including me.
The butter chicken was smooth and full of buttery. Also, the chicken biryani was bursting with flavours and had an amazing aroma.
First of all, George Restaurant provides a great ambience. We ordered Chicken kebab and Chicken biriyani.
Even though it is bit expensive , taste and ambience provides justice to the cost. I would recommend this place for a classy outing with an expected budget of 500-750 for 2 persons.
There is a reason why old school rock and roll still hasn't gone out if fashion. And the same idea transcends into food. And a classic example would be a chicken tandoori from George's.
Even for tandoor connoisseurs like us, this one tasted familiar yet new and that's magic that only one of the finest restaurants in Pune can pull off.

Food : 5/5
Ambience : 4/5
Living in Pune and not eaten in this legendary restaurant is almost impossible. George restaurant itself is a part of modern and contemporary history of Pune. They are upholding their fame and name for serving best Biryani, kababs, and Parsy delicacies. One of my favorite restaurant. Their Irani Biryani is one of the best.
In frame : Irani Chicken Biryani, paneer butter masala..
Great food and relaxed atmosphere
George is exactly what you expect a famous old food joint to be
Not much to say other than you must eat here atleast once ( a month)
Reasonable food and good portions 👍🏻
This place is so much fun and the food is so tasty. There is an upstairs ac section and in general the staff is quite friendly. There is no alcohol though which I think is okay.
Hi. This is my all time favourite place for non veg food. You will really n delicious non veg dishes. Located on the main road, they have good n silent sitting arrangements. What you like most is the food n courtesy. Thanks
Great experience. The staff was very friendly! Loved the biryani, mutton chops and Bhuna mutton gosht. Must try dishes 💯
I had heard so much about George Restaurant, so I decided to pay a visit. I ordered their chicken biryani, and I must say, it lived up to all my expectations. The chicken was cooked to perfection.
I also tried their lime soda, which was not good.
However, my experience took a downturn when my two vegetarian friends ordered Kadahi Paneer. Unfortunately, it didn't meet the mark and was rather disappointing.
In summary, George Restaurant is a haven for non-vegetarians, particularly for biryani enthusiasts. But for vegetarians, the options might not be as satisfying, so it's a mixed bag depending on your dietary preferences.
Almost a century old restaurant it ensures to carry on a legacy with good food, fast service and decent ambience. The pricing is on the reasonable side & i recommend visiting on weekdays to avoid crowds which is normally high on weekends.
restaurant is spacious but no-parking facility.
we tried the chicken tikka Birayani love that,
for dessert we tried the pudding which is not upto the mark
It is time to review the legendary George Restaurant.. It is the culture of old era .. From 1970..
It is best known for its non veg dishes.
Ambiance : it is clean and hygienic.. However has its old charm intact till today.. I love the simplicity of table arrangements.. It is well utilized.. It is in the heart of the camp area.. So be ready for traffic hustle..
Service : super quick service very well managed by all staff. Staff was polite and humble.. All are very well know their menu.. So might be having some waiting on rush hours..
Food : All knows that geoge restaurant.. Is famous for their non veg cousin.. It is having taste from 1970 or even before.. I have tried their chicken biryani.. (Super soft and tender chicken.. ) just melts in mouth.. Biryani is on bit dryer side , I would love to have bit more masala to manage the rice.. But that is what people love they are serving from years and years.. Paneer tikka masala was spot on love it.. Paneer was soft masala was good 👍
Roti is again very big in size compared to any other restaurant... Overall it cult following... It is just take you in to different era of non veg cousin..
Overall give a try for the culture and flavours of 90'..
Follow me on google, for unbiased reviews and photo and video...
Situated at MG Road, the most happening place of Pune this is a wonderful family restaurant. The old building has been nicely decorated to keep up with changing times. Food is great, service is sincere, the environment warm and friendly.
Highly recommended for dining out with family and friends.

Mutton Chops was just amazing!! Definitely try it. Had also ordered mutton biryani which wasn’t as good as expected. The mutton pieces in the Biryani had too much bones. Maybe I was unfortunate. Taste was it was good not excellent as I had expected. I would have given this restaurant a 5 star if the look of desert was perfect though the taste was usual. Would definitely visit again to try the mutton chops.
This is a very famous restaurant service people for more than a decade. They have a speciality in non veg food options. Most of the times it is crowded and you might have to wait here for a few minutes. But the space is huge so you'll get your seat. There is an AC seating option available as well.
Now about the food. Let me tell you my experience with the vegetarian food.
Avoid going here if you are a pure vegetarian and can't stand non veg.
Also the veg food options were less than average in taste. We tried Hara bhara kabab and they were extremely disappointing. Then we got Paneer Butter Masala with butter roti. The paneer was average. You can way more better options than that.
Now about the non veg food.
In starter we tried Chicken Reshmi Kabab, mutton seekh kabab and mutton fried chops. All of it was delicious.
For the main course we tried Chicken Dum biryani and Chicken tikka biryani. The dum biryani was better than the tikka biryani.
For desert we tried the caramel custard and we didn't like it. It was very bland. The flavours were very very subtle and bland.
Their prices are also on higher side for everything.
So overall it's a good place to enjoy non vegetarian food options.
There is a washroom present here.
Fav place of punekars. 1936 Restuarant still rocking in the city with its delicacies.. Major hits are Chicken Rotisserie, Kababs, Caramel Pudding, Tandoori Pomfret and Mutton Chap Kababs.
Nice place for a meal with family and friends, or even alone. The food is great! Service is generally good, though it may falter on very busy days -- days when you have to wait outside for 5 - 6 minutes for a seat. Staff and manager are very courteous and helpful. Location is very good, though finding a parking spot is always a challenge in this area at any time of day or night and for any type of vehicle.
Biryani?
Here’s your place
George Restaurant- very authentic and famous for its chicken and mutton Biryani!
Whole lot of rush for Dinner and they even got varieties of deserts.
Many side dishes with even vegetarian options for courses
A must try in Pune!!!
Nostalgic experience, we had fried mutton chops and Mutton Biryani.
Mutton was tender and tastey.
Biryani is must have with classic parsi masala.
A restaurant owned by the Venkey’s group. Good selection of non vegetarian food, bun maska, tea/coffee, desserts etc.
Reasonable prices and good service.
One of the old restaurants in town particularly in the camp area. Well known for it's chicken biryani.
They also serve other indian menu options too.
The quantity is little less than average but the quality is really good.
They also have hot and cold beverages options to chose from
They also offer take-outs.
Good place for quick meals.
