“ I had both lunch and dinner experience at this place. This place is perfect for family and friends. I tried chicken biryani, paya shorba (must try), kebabs (which are quite famous), etc. Khubani ka meetha was delicious as it was my first time trying it. Service is quick and very friendly. Washroom is available. All types of payment modes are available. There is ample of parking as well. It is a little pricey but worth the taste plus food is good so you won't even upset your stomach. I had a great experience and enjoyed dining here. ”
“ I recently visited this restaurant, and my experience was absolutely delightful. The chicken kebab and biryani were both outstanding in taste and flavor. The only downside was a slight unpleasant smell inside the restaurant, probably due to the rainy weather. Apart from that, the food quality was excellent, the service was good, and while the prices are a bit on the higher side, the quality definitely justifies the cost. ”
“ Oh my god, The taste of chicken Tandoor here is just awesome. Believe me the best tandoori chicken I have ever had. The taste is just fantastic. I was impressed with the juiciness and quality of the tandoor the moment I had my first bite. But the chichen biryani was not upto my expectations. Definitely recommend their tandoori chicken. Service is average. Ambience is good. ”
“ The appetizers were well-received, and the gravy and roti selections were particularly enjoyable. However, the biryani was a letdown. The Khubaani ka Meetha dessert is highly recommended. ”
“ Absolutely Exceptional Chicken Tikka Biryani! I recently visited Kareem's in Aurangabad and had their Chicken Tikka Biryani, and it was truly a fantastic experience. The biryani itself was rich in flavour; the chicken pieces were perfectly cooked and marinated in a delicious tikka spice, blending beautifully with the aromatic, long-grain rice. Easily one of the best Biryanis I've had in a long time! Beyond the food, the ambience is good—it's a very pleasant and comfortable place to dine. A special mention for the team: the staff is so kind and attentive, making the dining experience even better. Plus, the location is perfect, making it very convenient to visit. Highly recommend this place for a genuine Mughlai dining experience! ”
