Description
The kitchen prepares dishes like chicken biriyani, sheekh kabab, and beef biriyani cooked with spices like cardamom and cinnamon. Diners frequently describe a fresh, home-cooked feel backed by attentive service, though visitor reports point to inconsistent food quality. While certain menu items draw repeat visits, others—such as the beef biriyani—have been criticized for mild seasoning and sparse meat.
