Absolutely loved the food at Manna's Food express The biryani was flavorful, aromatic, and perfectly cooked. Their South Indian dishes were just as impressive—crispy dosas, soft uttappas, and delicious chutneys that tasted fresh and authentic. Great service and a cozy vibe made the experience even better. Highly recommend for anyone craving real South Indian flavors!

I gave them a try again and trust me they have fixed the issue. This time there were quite good paneer chunks and cashews in the biryani with perfect spices and salt.
Finally, the perfect old taste is back.

“They used to be better, now I don’t find adequate paneer pieces in biryani. On top of it, there is too much salt and spice everytime.”
