Couldnt continue eating , I ordered the chicken tikka masala and it was extremely oily so much I had to drain the oil out on the sink and use another plate to just add what was still left of the sauce … I was really excited to eat Indian food again after moving to NJ but first experience was really bad . Also the rice too oily , the samosas are ok but the outside of it is salty ,not sure what it’s covered with but its not necessary.. the mango lassi was great. Honestly not worth the price especially since it doesn’t even come with rice . Also on Uber Eats it says Biryani Adda but online it has a different name under this address ? But this is the address my order came from .

Great food, very courteous staff. Not so spicy like I expected for the dishes we ordered, but nonetheless great quality food.

I’ve ordered so much food from them several times in the last 4 yrs, you should be able to find a good review from me earlier. We have moved away from JC now and still picked up food tonight because I remembered it used to be good. The chicken 555 was completely stale, but I would have still given them another chance had it not been for their terrible customer service tonight. They asked me to bring back the food and only then would they replace it with a fresh batch. I said I live 12 miles away and did a 25 mile haul just to pick up, forget any sense of appreciation - the man said he wouldn’t be able to do anything even though I’ve been a customer since long. So much that will working in Jersey city, we used to frequently do corporate orders as well. I mocked him by asking if I should have tasted the food on the streets prior to driving back home & he actually said “Yes” ? I’m angry and amused at the moment. Talk about people in the restaurant business not knowing basic customer service!

Sorry about writing a bad review . Completely disappointed with your deccan special biryani.Never ever will get any food from your restaurant.I had just 10% of biryani and thrown rest in the garbage. You guys charging like a huge amounts why don’t make customers happy with some taste.Waste of my money with empty stomach.

I ordered today Goat Biriyani and there is only one goatPice in my order , not disappointed

The food is good. Service also is good . This restaurant is a lot space. We went in Friday night due to other restaurants were busy but only here empty.We ordered three main courses.Samosa in other restaurants only $5 dollars here charged $9.99We have been visited this area and order same type food so many times.This restaurant only provide bottle water ( yes not free)And rice charged 1.99 per order. To be honest,the price is higher than Manhattan.It isn’t a fancy restaurant but prices is fancy .I can got same prices food in Manhattan.I finally understand why dose the restaurant is always empty during peak hours.Because the prices isn’t reasonable.Actually the food is good . I can understand the owner for maintaining the business have to upgrade the prices .I believe if lower a little bit . It would bring to you more profits.

Tried a jackfruit biryani there for the first time and I was impressed. It had a chicken like bite to eat and tasted suberb. Loved the mirchi ka salan ans the raita as well. Cost is on a higher side but was super tasty. Staff was very polite and offered a great service. Must try.

the worst experience I had on the indian street. There are lot of things that went wrong at this place. 1st the plates that were placed for dinner were broken, which could have led to bleeding. I asked the manager to change them and he did it in polite manner. The food here was the main concern from quality and quantity respective. I have ordered egg biryani and it turned out to be veg Biryani with 2 boiled eggs and that was big disappointment for me. Even my fellow mates who had joined me for dinner faced same issue with their order. I do not encourage anyone to visit this restaurant. Its not worth of money that you pay. In any other restaurant the final check would be around 40-45$ but here the total cost was 75$. Big NO NO from me...

Chicken 555 and jackfruit biryani was good!! Nice flavors and tasted really good. Although place vibe is okay, not a fancy place, but will go for their food.
