Reviews Biryani Pot

This place is soooooo AMAZING! Everything is authentic, fresh, delicious. The place is clean, the staff is friendly, the prices are reasonable. The garlic naan is something I can eat all day by itself. The goat was cooked well and very tender. Everything is always perfectly made when I come.

Okay, this review may be a tad biased because I've been Indian-spice-deprived for a long while living in far west Texas but GOSH DARN that was a good meal and this is my second meal at this same restaurant in twenty-four hours. That, in itself, is a testimony of how tasty their menu is. Last night, I decided to go grab something pre-made from HEB and spied this little spot off to the side. Hmmmm? As soon as I walked in, I was greeted by kind people, a clean environment, soft and minimalist decor, and the wafts from the kitchen solidified my decision to try this rando Indian place. I ordered some tikka masala paneer (the dish, not the kabob, and not really traditional "Indian" so much as British but...) and it blew my socks off (had I been wearing any socks in this stupid Texas heat dome #2). On the menu, I noticed they had a good platter sampler for lunch times so I informed the young woman working there I'd be back tomorrow. I skipped breakfast and waited until I was good and hungry before arriving. Upon arrival, I was shocked and appalled to see that the place was dead. :( How do people not know about this spot??? Is it new, maybe? I ordered the non-vegan lunch spread, defaulted to chicken, which was $15.99. Oh. My. God. The timeliness, the presentation, the variety, the textures, the attention to detail- five thumbs up! Never would I have thought that I was at a strip center off of a highway in Austin, Tx. This felt like fine dining or at least like average-high India. I ate to my heart's content, enjoying the ginger chicken the most, and still had enough food leftover to-go for a full and lovely dinner, too. I can't wait to be hungry again. I bet those sauces will have had plenty of time to soak by then. The only negative aspect of both meals was that the naan could have been cooked a little more thoroughly. Not so much that it should lose a star, though. It was cooked, don't get me wrong, I just prefer mine with little near-burned spots here and there. Anyway, a long story review all to say... Go here. Try it! Tell your friends. These kind of little food gems should be well known, bustling, and stay in business (so that if and when I return to Austin, I can come have some more ginger chicken). <3

Some of the best South Indian food we have had in Austin. Absolutely love this place we been dining-in there several times, the hostess n server are friendly always greet us with a great smile. The restaurant is very clean and great ambiance all over with neutral white colors. Our order was super flavorful and fresh. The quantity are genorous easliy feeds two people. No wonder they are super busy with the ToGO orders, I've seen many orders packed in large trays of multiple orders. We love there Double-Ka-Meeta and Sweet Pan. Highly recommend.

Good place for Biriyani, decent selection, had the goat dum biriyani as well as the curry and both were good! Very flavorful! Service was fine, it was very quiet on a Tuesday evening.

This place is too underrated!!! They offer the best goat curry and biryani I’ve ever tasted! The curry is soooo flavorful and the goat so moist, soft, and easily off the bone. The biryani contains such aromatic and fluffy basmati rice and tender meat.🥰 I am writing with my mouth watering. Ras malai, dosa and mango lassi are nice too. I hope that they keep it up so I can go there again and again!

Pros: food taste! Cons: Strong phenyl smell in the restaurant makes it unpleasant for the first 15-20 mins until the food arrives Recommendations: methi chaman, chicken mughlai, tandoori chicken, chole, and daal.
