Avachi Biryani House

Worst customer service. They open at 8:30 and I ordered food for to go. They took 40 mins to bring the food. If you can't serve food for first customer at 8:30am, then why open at 8:30 am. Also they served others who ordered after me.

Used to be my favorite biriyani places in the bay over the last year. But they changed the Salan which is disappointing. It used to be so flavorful and unique with Nigella seeds and a hint of sweetness and spicy chili peppers. Now it’s just sesame based and bland. Also the meat masala to rice ratio has reduced. The size was always small for that price point but the taste made up for it. Sadly I can’t say that anymore. Not sure if the chef / management changed. Sad! Why can’t any of the Indian restaurants remain consistent in their taste?

Best food I’ve ever had I always get butter chicken and gobi Manchurian

Biriyani tastes like lemon rice so sour

I have never visited the place but it's one of my favorite places to order in Doordash because of the great street chowmein that they make. This time, I ordered street chowmein with egg along with chicken lollipop and fish 65. The latter 2 items were big disapppointments as the pictures themselves will probably show. The drumsticks were very small, extremely dry and on the verge of almost being burnt. The fish 65 is similarly dry and almost burnt. In addition, the portion sizes of those items were also small. Overall, not a good experience with the food from this place.

The Chicken dum biryani is best in Bay Area.

On 15-Feb, I have placed a pickup order for 'Avachi Special Chicken Dum Biryani'. As per the name, it was so special and so fun, I literally enjoyed the time doing a treasure hunt for the boneless chicken pieces in the huge tub of rice without any masalas. Utterly disappointing!!! All I had was plain Basmati Rice, a Boiled egg and a very small portion of chicken with scarcely coated masalas. I am not stepping into this restaurant for a very long time in the future.

Best ponugulu in bay area!
