We recently visited Pista House Artesia and tried the Nizam Chicken Biryani and Mutton Chukka. The biryani was flavorful, with well-cooked rice and tender chicken pieces that carried the right amount of spice and aroma. The mutton chukka was delicious too rich, well-spiced, and cooked to perfection with soft, juicy meat. Overall, both dishes had authentic taste and good portion sizes. A satisfying experience for anyone craving Hyderabadi flavors.

Wish I could give it a zero. Visited Pista House on a Sunday with many expectation but we were disappointed. The naans were cold &store brought. They weren’t prepared freshly, just reheated in an oven. Tried Apollo fish, didn’t taste like fish. It was just drowned in sauce. Regret spending money here
Out of Stock for Days - No Clarity on Haleem Availability
I’ve called Pista House multiple times over the past few days, specifically asking about Haleem and every single time, I’ve been told it’s “out of stock.
Today is Tuesday at exactly 6:00 PM, and once again, I was told the same thing. I asked if Haleem would be available tomorrow, and they said no and that maybe it might be there on Thursday, but even that wasn’t confirmed.
What I don’t understand is: if Haleem is not being made right now, why is it still on the menu? There’s no clear communication or transparency. Either the front desk doesn’t know what’s going on, or they’re just giving generic responses without checking with the kitchen.
This is frustrating for someone who lives nearby and genuinely wants to support the restaurant. If Haleem is only made on certain days (or not at all), customers deserve to be told clearly. Otherwise, it just feels like poor management.
Better to go with other restaurant ig.

I am never going back here. Ordered to go Hyderabady chicken biryani it was not even close to biryani. Just full of coloured rice with one piece of chicken which tasted burnt and was dry, half egg and a piece of bone in it.

The perfect South Indian Hyderabad Dum Biryani! Authentic taste, great aroma, and perfectly cooked meat and rice. One of the best Hyderabadi biryanis I’ve had in recent years. The waitress was very welcoming and made sure everything was good with the food. A must-visit spot for Hyderabadi people.

Not good experience as a customer, bathroom condition was not good, food was not good, they literally just put together paneer and biryani rice. Even if they follow a YouTube video, it would have been good.
