Fragrant and packed tightly, I was very excited to try the boneless chicken biryani because many of my classmates and colleagues have recommended this Indian restaurant for its authenticity. However, I found my dish to be a little too indulgent as it was oily and salty to me. Honestly, I definitely overate though because it was delicious. I find myself having many contradictions about this place. This one bowl lasted me three meals though! The chicken to rice ratio is veryyyy nice. I tried to be conservative with the spiciness, but I realized quickly that I should've gotten it spicier. I think I'd be open to trying Biryani City again. Maybe next time, I'll get a different kind of meat and ask for more spice. It was good, but not as good as my boyfriend's mom's biryani :)

The restaurant is completely self service and you'll be given to go boxes even if you decide to dine-in.A little stuffy and hot inside so most people prefer take out.It took almost 40 minutes for an order of dosa and chicken biryani to be ready. Food is good but service/ambience could be better.

If you are looking for authentic Indian street food you have found your go to spot. W/ just a little bit of guidance anyone can roll in there & done like a pro. Before coming pack a small package of Clorox disinfectant wipes, a reusable shopping bag (leftovers ), hand sanitizer, a table cloth & small candle, nice disposable plates, a couple coasters to slide under the legs of the wobbly table, a wine bottle opener, and some silver ware. When you get there order. Right away! The whole order. Then find a table, clean, shim the legs to make it stable, spread the table cloth, lite the candle & then get your drink on. The restaurant provides paper plates and cutlery but since they are of low quality bring some better quality items as listed above. I patronize Biryani City for one reason and that is I love the Mysore Masala Dosa. This shit is the truth!!! Then I chop up the Vegetable Manchurian & gobble it down all together. For the table we ordered Shrimp Curry, Chicken Butter Masala, (out of this world amazing) onion kulcha & butter naan. Since all the food is brought out in to go containers it is very easy to share everything & haul it home.Don't get me wrong, the ambiance in this place is horrific at best. The food comes out as it's cooked so you might be halfway thru the meal & still not see your naan. The cleanliness is questionable at best & the rest room is scandalous. After all is said and done paying is simple & since there is no service staff tipping isn't required. I love BC & would love to give these restauranteurs 5 stars. The quality of the food demands it, however, the complete disregard for ambiance, cleanliness, & customer comfort drips the rating to 4/5. I will continue to patronize BC but my fervent hope is that the managerial team gets their act together & make this place a lot more dine in friendly.

Ordered from here a few times while traveling for work to PA. Consistently good. Not a big fan of any of the appetizers. But the veg and chicken biryani, dal and roti have always been good. Will continue to order from here when I need a quick Indian fix while in the Philly area.

Went to a new place for lunch! First we were dissapointed we could not sit in for the lunches from the old pictures online people raved about. You can sit in, but they will give you food as take out. None the less, our food was flavor packed with each item we ordered. Okay so, we both came with a lunch budget, co-worker and I, but left with bags of dinner. (We were hungry) she bought, veggie somosas- jam packed with flavor, fresh and hot, cauliflower 65-with crispy red sauce a bit spicy for "regular", and chicken tikka masala-slammin flavor not too tomatoey, with garlic naan.I too, purchased the chicken tikka masala, lollipop chicken- (which was the best thing I ordered) comes with sweet cooling sauce, and garlic naan. All food was fresh and hot and full of saucy seasonings. I want to order other things on the menu now.

The food is great but the portion sizes seemed really small considering the price. There was a long wait to get the food.

I ordered via doordash and waited an hour for the absolute worst meal ever. The naans were stale and tough, clearly cheap Costco or Walmart rejects. The butter chicken was completely tasteless. The Apollo fish was flavorless. Their quality has hit rock bottom. When I called to complain that the naans weren't freshly made, they tried to dodge responsibility with lame excuses about being busy and having a new chef. Pathetic and unacceptable. I'm never ordering from them again.
