Went sunday afternoon 12pm chennai style chicken briyani Rs150 with box 639 grams. For Rs150 two decent size pieces 6grams rice with good masala it's worth for money. I would recommend to visit this place in afternoon, in night dinner I don't think briyani is fresh always in night. But in afternoon it should be morning cooked briyani and it taste good. Dinner can't say it's fresh becoz it depends on afternoon sales. Chennai style briyani mild spice and no after burn effectives..... Overall it's good briyani for afternoon time

See all on GoogleNice hot biriyani even during midnight hours. The biriyani was flavorful and served fresh. Perfect late-night food spot near Marina Beach for midnight cravings. They’re also famous for their Baklava, which many people visit specifically to try. The place has become a recent Insta-hit and attracts a good late-night crowd. Nice vibe overall for quick food runs near the beach.
The Hype vs. The Reality I recently visited Zaara Biriyani and spent around ₹1,600. With all the social media buzz lately, I wanted to see if it actually lived up to the "paid" hype. Here is my unfiltered take: The Highlights Chennai-Style Biriyani: This was the star of the show. If you are coming here for the Biriyani, you won't be disappointed. It was flavorful and well-cooked. Cheese Kunafa: Surprisingly good! It was a great way to end the meal and definitely worth ordering. The Letdowns The Haleem Situation: I went in hoping for Mutton Haleem, but they had already run out and only had Chicken Haleem available. Unfortunately, it was not up to the mark—lacking that rich, authentic texture. Dum Ka Tandoori: This was a major miss. Instead of a smoky tandoor flavor, it tasted like a basic chicken curry. It was "okay" when paired with Rumali Roti, but it’s definitely not a standout dish. Mutton Sheek Kabab: Honestly, the worst kabab I’ve ever had. I would suggest skipping this entirely. Service & Logistics Wait Time: Expect a rush. Even with a 15–20 minute wait, the place stays packed. Value: At ₹1,600, it feels like a mixed bag. You're paying a premium for a meal where only half the dishes truly shine. Final Verdict: Go for the Biriyani and the Kunafa. Skip the rest of the starters and sides, as they don't match the quality of the main dish. Note to Content Creators: Please keep your reviews genuine. Paid promotions are misleading and directly impact the customer experience when the food doesn't match the "viral" claims
Biriyani is okayy but every other thing here is a scam and their chennai biriyani tastes like a normal biriyani but charged at higher price and their hyderabad biriyani tasted like rice cooked in pressure cooker, it was very rubbery but the masala was good but it came with just 2 piece, worsttttt
One of the best wedding style briyani in chennai. We always buy bucket briyani not even single time it has disappointed. Mutton is so soft and tender very flavourful mutton briyani with sufficient pieces of mutton. Highly recommend this place. Authentic bhai stye briyani 👍 now my all time favourite spot.
