Biryani Pot Express

We took a takeout while on our way from Northern Cali to San Diego. Chicken biryani and samosas were both fresh and flavorful. And the lady who took our order was sweet and made sure to get our food as soon as possible.

This place is not a speciality biryani place but they claim to have item across different varieties . Here are the rating based on feedback from 4 folks including me. Paneer Biryani 4/5 . Egg bonda 3/5 , veg chap - 0/5 ( not worth the taste / quality or value ) . Recommendations for this place would be for Bhiryani only .

Please is not that busy her and folks mot get to go . Not lot of sitting area . Service could be improved . Customer service seems to need some scope of improvements .

Vegetarian options: Not much option for vegetarian here .

Dietary restrictions: No description on gluten free .

Kid-friendliness: Not much space here or facility . It’s fast food

The rice was perfect, the ladies working were so nice and the dosas and daal reminded me of the food my friends mom used to make. So happy it’s so close!

Getting the family pack for the biryani has been a delight. Very well cooked and the masala is perfect. They sent complimentary chicken munchurian twice! Nice of them. The raita is also worth it.

Without a doubt, this place serves the worst Indian food ever. The Lamb Biryani was very dry and way too hot in temperature. The amount of meat served was miniscule. I had to complain to get more meat but that serving was mostly bones. They provide very little naan and the sides were all cold! The Masala Tea wasn't hot enough. The rice was dirty which means that was mixed with the meat before it was served.

For $15+ dollars you get two very small slices of naan, three small pieces of lamb, six if you complain. about three ounces of chicken masala, three ounces of vegetable korma, 1.5 cups of dirty rice and three very ordinary sauces. Nothing here is good.

Will someone please open another Indian restaurant nearby put these people out of business.

Amazing place to dine at or order food. I normally don’t enjoy Indian food but this place changed that for me. The mutton biriyani and Malay kofta were personal favorites. The schezwan noodles are great too, especially for the kids. The atmosphere was really welcoming and the service was great. I would 100 percent recommend this place for tasty authentic Indian food. Don’t miss out. Best biriyani place in Irvine.
