Our favorite has been the one in Baltimore (highly recommend their chicken biryani and lollipops). \n\nThat said, when we heard about this place we immediately decided to try it out. We went on Saturday evening. The place is located in a basement. It's a small restaurant with 4 small tables and no customers were present when we went around 7:30ish. There was no one at the reception table but a lady walked in from the kitchen soon after we arrived. We decided to try their special - Paradise Biryani. The food was served within 10 min after after we placed the order. \n\nThis biryani was no biryani at all. Basically it was pulao with fried chicken on top. The rice as well as the chicken was tasteless. There was minimal salt but no spice to it. The chicken was likely marinated in turmeric water and though it was tender and well fried, it was again tasteless and we couldn't appreciate any Indian spices. We had decided to order more food but after the poor performance of the biryani, we decided to leave. \n\nThe lady attendant was nice and polite. During the half and hour we were there, only one more customer came for a pick up. \n\nWe must have tried biryani at least over 100 different places in USA and this by far was the worst one."^^ . .
