Very very very good biryani here. The portion is decent and the food is constant. I’ve been there many times at different times. Good spice and flavor but a little bit greasy. Establishment is clean, wait is not bad. Best to call in advance.

Go in the evening especially on a Sunday. This place is totally empty for dine-in at that time. Definitely recommend chicken lollipop, chicken biryani and chola bhatura! DECOR: This place is more like a take out joint with a banquet attached to it. The décor us very simply with hardly any place to sit. This place can at the most accommodate may be 10 people. However, it was very clean. FOOD: We ordered chicken lollipop, chicken biryani, chole bhatura and aloo paratha. I loved them all! Totally reminds me of how it exactly tastes in India. I read quite a few negotiate feedbacks about this place but trust me the food is excellent for the quantity and price. The spice level was Indian spicy(on a scale of 1 – 10, the spice level was 6). SERVICE: From the look of the guy at the counter I was worried if he will speak and understand English. He totally surprised me by speaking good English. He didn’t even take any tips from me, totally denied. The food was served between 15 minutes from the time ordered. You need to walk up to the counter, place and order and then find a place to sit. Your food will be brought to the table. Our server was very humble too. PRICE: Our total was about $ 30/-which is more that Paradise Indian Restaurants happy hour menu but the quality and taste totally justifies the price. 5 stars for the taste of the food !

Goat biriyani, chicken biriyani and pepper chicken are the best here. Clean place to dine in. Proud to say that these staffs are from South India who speak Tamil. Nice service and 100% satisfied.!!

This is my FAVORITE Indian spot that I have found ANYWHERE(aside from my Indian auntie’s home cooking of course). LOVELOVELOVE it’s prices and flavor. All of the Indian places in the city(Bmore) can’t begin to compare.

Carry out food was supposed to be ready at 6. We arrived at 6 and were told 5 minutes. It’s 6:30 and still no food. Unacceptable!

We had the chettinad chicken with rotis, chicken biryani and veg biryani. The portion of biryani was so huge that none of us could finish one serving inspite of starving for the entire morning. Their spicy is really spicy. You’d feel the authentic flavor of Indian spices coz apparently their spices come from India. What’s more. We paid only 19 $ a person for the quantity of food to suffice for two meals.

We were a party of 12 and we visited this place on a Saturday Afternoon. This place is more of a take out/fast food, but we decided to dine in. The menu is majority South Indian with a few North Indian dishes. The menu card seems confusing at the beginning as the protein is donated with colors rather than names Ex: Biryani — Blue Red Yellow* *Blue — Chicken *Red — Shrimp *Yellow — Paneer. This is a bit confusing because it takes some time to match the colors with the protein. Since we are a party of 12 we ordered a variety of items Chicken Drumsticks — Cripsy, juicy, and rightly marinated. Apollo Fish — Its a bit bland and adding a bit more of spices would have made it perfect Goat Biryani — The goat is very tender and succulent and the texture of the rice is right where it needs to be. Chicken Biryani — I liked the goat biryani better Egg Fried Rice — it was just as expected and the perfect mix of Indo Chinese Chilli Chicken Wet– This can be passed, it was just okay We tries different types of desserts as well and all of them were delicious. Overall the quality of the food seems great. The reason I am giving 3 stars to this place, it lakes a bit of coordination. People kept bringing wrong orders to our table and serving our order to some other tables.

Best biriyanis in town. But don’t call them for pre-order, your order will never reach the kitchen. It happened twice. Once they compensated with fried rice and second time they said they are closed. So get on there to order even for take away.

This is a very casual Indian restaurant located in a strip mall. It’s very no-frills and doesn’t seem especially crowded but is fine for a casual meal. The biryani is generously portioned and very good compared to other local options. I would return if I’m in the area and try other entrées.

An experience. Lots of space without a lot of people. Crazy dancing/singing videos streaming on two walls. Counter orders and table delivery. We ended up here by pulling off the highway and looking for the first food plaza we could find. My guess is we picked the best of the four or five places there. Vegetable biryani, spicy chicken tandoori, and samosa chat got shared by four and fed us all well. Being cautious, we went for medium spice all around and that was wise. Plenty of heat, yet still shy of too much. Friendly and willing counter help and a neighborhood feel in a «mall zone» made this a good stop. Sometimes you get lucky.

This is a great place to get really authentic South Indian food. The food is fresh and delicious. The service is fairly nice and I have no complaints about this place.

I initially gave 3 stars for this place. But I revisited yesterday and everything I ordered tasted really good. I don’t know if chef was having a bad day before, but. Here are the dishes that won’t disappoint you. — Chicken Fried Rice –Chicken Lollipops –Naan and Chicken Chettinad(extra spicy) And do not order Veg Manchurian !!! That’s a big NONO Biryani tastes better than any other place around but still not up to the mark.

I was at the Toyota Dealership getting my car serviced when I decided to search Unilocal for something other than the Double T that’s a few steps away. I checked out the reviews for this place and thought I’d give it a try. OMFG, this is the real stuff. I’ve ordered biriyani at different restaurants before, but never somewhere that specialized in it. I read a review that said something about there being a lot of Indian people in the restaurant, which proved to them that it must be good. Holy shit they were spot on. Tons of Indians up in this bitch at lunch time. My chicken biriyani came on a plate with saffron rice, infused with tons of different spices that you can actually see… No bullshit spice or curry powders here folks. The chicken was hidden inside, and tasted soo good that it had to be marinated for a crazy long time. I wonder if they use the traditional«Dum» method where a huge cauldron is layered with rice, meat, crispy fried onions, spices, eggs, n errthang good. They def used ghee too. I could tell. My plate also came with a lime wedge, a slice of fresh red onion, half of a hard boiled egg, and 2 little ramekins filled with what seemed like a ghee based spicy sauce and cucumber raita. I’m glad I didn’t order any bullshit sides cause this was enough. I didn’t even finish it all cause I’m trying to keep my sexy figure in check. Ya’ll Indian lovers need to check this place out. #Merica

Paradise Biryani Pointe is the best authentic Biryani we have had so far in the US and it even beats many good places in India. Generally when you go to Indian restaurants in the US the taste of the food is modified to suit the local palate and it loses its Indian flavor. This food is as authentic as it gets. It is difficult to categorize the Biryani as they have brought out the best of both Hyderabadi and Awadhi(Lucknowi) Biryani. The spices are a mix of both places and they also ‘dum’ the Biryani. The goat meat is cooked to perfection(bhuna masala) and the rice smells of ghee, a rarity these days. From our experience, whenever we hear the cook signing, the Biryani is fantastic! If you can eat spicy food then ask them to make the dishes hot. This makes it all the more tasty. Some of the dishes which are good here 1) Goat Biryani(the best dish here — a must have) 2) Goat/Chicken pepper(spicier the better) 3) Goat/Chicken chettinad 4) Chicken tandoori(quite good) Enjoy!

I haven’t been to any other Paradise locations.(always wanted to but never got a chance) But this one fulfilled my expectations of tasty biriyani. The food did not look nor taste like all the other generic Indian restuarants. Instead it ha flavour and taste and an actual Indian food feel. I was looking around at other tables all the other items that people ordered looked yummy and felt like being in India…

Got here on the cusp of 9PM one night and thought for sure they’d refuse me, but happily, they let me place an order! I liked the diagrammatic menu and variety of curries; chose a green variety with vegetables and sat down to wait, feeling very much like the only white girl around. Oh, wait: I was the only white girl around. I amused myself by trying to guess what everyone around me was talking about. My food was ready quickly(10 – 15 minutes) and I took it home to eat, since it really did look like they were shutting down for the night. The naan was delicious: piping hot and charred in a few places, as it should be. I was mystified as to why they included a 2-cup container of curry and only a 1-cup container of rice, but it was easy enough to make more at home(seriously, though?! Rice is cheap!) The curry itself was good, but not great. I should have just ordered something I knew I liked; instead I got adventurous and went with the hariyali(green) curry. It was very green! Super flavorful, but a little odd: both sweet and spicy, notes of coriander and mint. There weren’t as many vegetables as I would have liked; it was mostly sauce. I’d like to try one of their classics to see if I like it better. I will definitely return to do so.

This place is incredible! We were the only non-Indians in the place, which I take as a good sign for an Indian restaurant! Tucked away in a little alcove off of Rt. 40, about a hundred meters from Double T Diner, lies Paradise Biryani Pointe. The staff are friendly, though our person was occasionally a bit difficult to understand. The food was delicious. My friend got a chicken Malai Kabob, which I thought sounded so boring, but I was wrong! I never knew chicken breast could be so moist and delicious! A fantastic yogurt marinade is the key, and it blends beautifully with the basmati rice. I got a chicken Tikka Masala, probably a good litmus test for the rest of the food on the menu. Thick sauce and spicy! YUM! I had made Khadai Paneer at home a couple of times and wanted to try theirs. Similar(but fantastic) flavors, though theirs had a good bit more sauce, which is totally fine with me! When you order, you’ll see that for most dishes, you get to choose the«star» of your dish: beef, chicken, fish, goat/lamb, paneer, vegetables, eggs, shrimp, gobi(cauliflower)… I had never seen an Indian place do this. I think it’s brilliant! Most dishes can be modified according to the level of spicy you prefer as well. This control over the dishes ensures that you’re going to get a winning dish every time. Most of the others patrons ordered the variety of biryani dishes. I had never had it, but the big mound of flavored rice, mixed veggies and meat looked fantastic. And, seeing as so many people were ordering it, and the restaurant even has it in its name, I will certainly grab a plate of it next time I come in; it’s gotta be good! The mango lassi was very thick, but not overbearingly so. Very rich and delicious. I’d definitely get it again. The prices were fair — not affordable for every day, but definitely doable for once a while(even once a week). Totally recommended.
