We went to BiryaniHut (newly opened in Westlake) for the first time today and were favorably impressed with the food and service. It is a no frills restaurant (not much in terms of ambience) but the food was wholesome and tasty. We ordered the vegetarian and non vegetarian thali's (complete platters) which came with a vegetarian appetizer, a curry dish, dal (lentils) naan and Biryani (house specialty). The non veg platter had the same types of dishes, but made with chicken. The biryanis were extremely tasty and were in ample proportions. You can ask for the spice level to be adjusted based on your spice tolerance. We asked for medium and it still had a nice kick to it. The service was friendly and the restaurant is clean. We would surely go again and recommend it to friends.
