Review Aasife Biriyani - Pondicherry

The Khana Lovers
Worlds best biryani as they say. Food: 5/5 Cost: 4/5 Ambience: 5/5 Location:5/5 Staff: 4/5 Service: 4/5 Cleanliness: 4/5 The ambience is mind blowing and great. Located in the perfect place. Food has great quality and has amazing taste. The chicken biryani is very tasty and also the egg. The service is little not great. The music played is very good and it has its wave on the songs. The biryani is must try. The hotel has no parking space in the basement. Overall the plAce had family crowd and is good for visiting with family.

They claim to have the best Biriyani in the world. Reality is pretty far away from that. Having said that, it might be the only better place to have Hyderabadi Biriyani in Pondicherry. Ambience is good, service is too fast in dine-in. Don't know about take-out. Equally good for family dinner or couples.

Two outlets in pondy but I like the one in bussy street for its ambience. They have a variety of tandoor and grill items after 7pm. Tried their mutton biryani and chicken lollipops. Biryani is tasty and spicy. It also has flavours quite similar to paradise biryani Hyderabad (both are from Hyderabad so can't deny their similarities :P ) but it's really nice. Their tandoor items are also delicious and should be tried. A good place for family outings considering their spacious seating arrangements. Food -4/5 Ambience 4/5 Service 4/5

Biryani is awesome. Hospitality and ambience is so good. Must be aware of some dishes before you order other than biryani. They might be disappointing.
Dr. Vibhuti Jadhao
Absolutely amazing place Perfect ambience, with a perfectly designed transparent kitchen, polite waiters and just perfect food I am a vegan and I had ordered Veg Biryani, and to my surprise,it was the best Biryani i have ever had I just cant imagine how delicious the non-veg food must be. Totally in love with the place โค๏ธ

I think it is one of the best restaurant in Pondicherry. Mughal Biriyani was excellent. Must try it. Other dishes also good.
Keertana Nair
Nice place, cosy, food is also wonderful. Place worth visiting of you are in pondi. Suitable for groups and heavy fooding ๐Ÿ˜‚

Pardha Krishna
Best place in Pondicherry, who are searching for known brand quality restaurant.
Akshay Kanhere (aONE)
Try prawns biryani at Asife Pondicherry.
Jeet Gupta
Nice place to for dining and take away. Ambiance is good. Low medium lights makes the place more attractive. Food is also tasty. We ordered only chicken biryani (1/5) plate. We thought it wouldn't sufficient but yes it is very sufficient. Best part is that i saw first time here that biryani is selling in kg. Overall good place and nice taste.
Habitart India
Very cordial staff who are keen to cater to your needs. Great ambience. I am not a biryani fan so cant comment on their claim on 'world s best biryani'. They are a very chicken-mutton place. Would like to see more seafood on their menu. Taste of food is good - not overtly spicy yet totally Indian.
Dr. Vinit Singh Urologist DMSH
very tasty biryani must try
Debabrata Dash
Ordered chicken dum biryani and masala prawn .Prawn dish was good but biryani was pathetic.chicken was half cooked and chicken skin were intact n not removed before cooking.disappointed..
Tejaswi Prakash
The most pathetic service Iโ€™ve ever seen. The biryani was cold and lifeless. Please donโ€™t get swayed in by the store frontage,this place serves very bad food. I canโ€™t stress enough on how bad the service and food is.
Afnan Fathima
Pathetic service one of the worst restaurant in Pondicherry.
Prudhvi Raj
veg biryani not good
Chris Mitchell
Enjoyed their biriyani and tandoori chicken
Abin
Chicken and Mutton Biriyani was decent for the price, wheat paratha and babycorn masala was sour and chicken manchurian was too sweet.
Amrita
Food was tasty but service was poor. Cutlery was dirty, had to ask to bring clean ones. Wouldnโ€™t visit again.
M Ansari
This is the foto of Biryani in the menu, and when it arrived it was egg fried rice with raw onions ans boiled chicken. Shameful Biryani
Dimsum
Yummiest dum biryani! We packed from the place a couple of times, when we went there to pack they had a nice family restaurant like ambience. This place is good along with others in town like Salem Biryani (more authentic, food served on a banana leaf)
Naveen9948
Pathetic food. Avoid this world best biryani restaurant. Half cooked food and it will be nightmare if you order veg food. Service is also pathetic as the service guys are lethargic
KIRAN NARU
Shit food and pathetic service. Having great time in pondicherry then this restaurant happened.<br/>half cooked food and exorbitant prices. Please avoid
Arunprasath Alias Karthik Jagadeesan
Briyani wasn't up to the expectations at all. Chicken is so dry. Please add more flavour/spices to the biryanis. Dragon chicken is superb and would recommend it.
Mohammed Zohaeb Sait
Firstly monday evening,8 30 pm there qas no chicken or mutton biryani available.<br/>Below average food, ordered for prawn biryani got exactly 5 pieces of prawns in it with multicoloured super spicy rice.<br/>Next up was naan which came burnt but was replaced on request so one star for that.<br/>Ordered chicken 65 as starters which only had coating fried and given.<br/>Utterly disappointing and even worse was shabbily dressed staff.
Shiva Keerthi
It was my best friends birthday treat.....we went for dinner.....the place was good....we ordered...<br/>1.chicken mughalai Biryani......it was absolutely good.....we loved it..<br/>2.crab lollipop......we felt it little oily.....but tasted good...<br/>3.pepper chicken.....it was ok.....not as expected.....with lots of masala....not so dry<br/>4.mutton chukka.....they literally forgot to add the salt in it....we complained it to our waiter....he took that to kitchen....and brought again....but it was not good....
Bn Balu
Cheating hotel for online customer worst hotel waste...this is the size for biriyani parcel online payment dont order in online they are cheating us
RAJ
i ordered combo5 mutton biriyaniย  total value 299. but they delivered the product worth for Rs 50. as per combo menu they have not given anything mutton biriyani has been given in small silver pack like 20 Rs lemon rice. 100 gms of rice 50 gms mutton and three piece chicken 65 seperately. lemon juice 150 ml in a plastic cover like onion cover wrapper. i dont know how they gave this for 299 .ย  they mentioned egg in combo but not placed because the biriyani quantity box is very small. i contacted the restaurant about this they told we will inform this to manager and the combo menu was withdrawn . but i was got cheated because of zomato they are creating new combination and collecting the money .ย  kindly zomato should solve this issue.
Sudarsan Jaisarathy
Worst ever briyani I ever tasted worst food waste of money order combo 2 the food was suppose to be made with basmati rice but made with some other rice its ridiculous food
Sudharsan
Good food to eat<br/><br/>The food is cheap and good and it is tastier and spicy compared to all other restaurants in Pondicherry<br/><br/>The quantity is somewat little but it is okieee<br/><br/>
Ragu Varan
Hi, i have ordered mutton biriyani through zomato but while opening the pack its chicken biriyani..i get disappointed and its not worthy for what i paid .Please respond me
Simran Bedi
We are a big fan of dum biryani so in first place we're afraid to try it in but I must say they are serving an amazing dum biryani in south. We tried their special aasife chicken also which again turned out to be lipsmacking. We so much liked the food that we dined their 2 days in a row.
Abhishek Sharma
The service is so bad that they've mentioned egg biryani and chicken Biryani seperately, and they provide the same bowl with chicken and eggs in it. THERE'S NOTHING SEPERATE! And the worst thing is they don't even mention it until you see it and poke them.,, is
Srikanth Menon
Grilled chicken was good but Vanjaram fry was not good and very expensive to the portion given.<br/>Grilled chicken was worth the price and good portion size

Worst biriyani I ever had. This biriyani had tasted like tomato rice. There is no biriyani smell at all. Even chicken 65 is over cooked it is al most blacked.<br/><br/>Biriyani lovers pls don't think about this restaurant.<br/><br/>Road side biriyani shops are more better than this....
Cb K
Its egg podimass briyani . With some mutton fry . It also only bones . In zomato its mutton mughalai briyani. You have to specify egg podimas with briyani ok. You simply display as mughalai briyani. This world worst briyani in my life .<br/>
Tom
Saw this place listed on Zomato and decided to check it out. Staff were very nice, cool A/C and comfortable seats made for a pleasant start. We order chicken biryani, daal fry and garlic nan. Portions were good and all of the food was tasty. Would definitely go back.
Shubhangi
The order I received was not what i ordered.
Kenny Gh
Awesome food quality. Seriously one of the best biriyani is served here. Must try place for people those who love North Indian cuisine. Keep up the good food #Aasife Biriyani.
Dr.SenthilKumar
Another TN branded restaurant opening it's branches in Pondy....Ambience and service is really good.....Food was tasty and in good quantity.... Reasonable pricing...
Hangout With Me
The less price good Food.................I was looking for lunch .So my friend told me about aasife restaurant .The restaurant is nice ,The menu is also ok..I was hungry so directly I ordered main course, The Chicken gravy taste fantastic ,but the Garlic Naan was not good it's should be be little thick .<br/>And<br/>Service is good but it's should improved ,<br/>Waiter's they are taking order in mobile .They should Carry one note.<br/>It was nice experience thank you
Vatchu
The ambience is decent. The service is great.<br/>Not the best biryani in the location. Total let down.<br/>Does live up to the reputation. Perhaps too many branches has compromised the quality.
Nilay Shah
This place gets a 3.5. The food here is quite affordable and very delicious. The ambiance is pretty much of a family dining and the service is something they can improve on.
Arunima Kumar
A typical North Indian will love this place in Puducherry as they serve the right and perfect North Indians Hyderabadi Food.<br/><br/>They are well known for their Biryani and believe it or not, they have the best ever biryani I ever had.
Ashish Prabhakaran
They claim to serve the World Best Biriyani, though the Biriyani was good but I don't agree to their claim completely. Moreover compared to other eateries around pondicherry they are slightly overpriced & also the quantity is less.
Kashish Mittal
Aasife biryani is quite a popular name in Tamil Nadu, and they extended the same to Pondicherry<br/>They have recently started a fine dining restaurant in MG ROAD. The restaurant design is fantastic and so is the food. This one is till date the best aasife restaurant which I have dined. The service is quick, the staff is very courteous.
Janani Mohan
Best Biryani in town... Good flavours and perfect cooking....I mainly like the chicken lollipop Manchurian they make, mouth watering dish...
Sreemoyee Biswas
Ambience 4/5<br/>Very spacious with comgortavle sofas. But can get noisy and crowded.<br/><br/>Timings: open at odd hours in the afternoon like 4-7pm when everything except for tandoor items available. <br/><br/>Food: 3/5<br/>Biryani is ok for the limited options in pondicherry. Tandoor items are good. <br/><br/>Service:4/5
Anil
The spl bbq has nothing special . Chicken marination was less. It was tasteless inside. The chicken lollipop was full of color only. Finger fish was cooked in old oil and it had that old oil smell. Will not visit again
John
Very bad service. Nothing tasted as it should actually taste. We waited for 45 mins for our order to arrive whilst the one's who came after us got immediate service.
Ram Dass
Ordered 2 chicken briyani parcel yesterday night. Both were foul smelling. Seems like two to three days made food. Will not even think about buying here in future
Azoz Al-attas
Nice Ambience with decent service!<br/>But to the Management! Time to change the tag line that 'worlds best biryani' or whatever! Bcse seriously I doubt that it's best in even pondichery sorry.<br/>Please work on your tandoori items specially roties.. if you wanna charge that much for a single bread, better deliver the quality as well because my jaw still hurt chewing on to the rubber it becomes so quickly!<br/>A little more proficiency in the staff will also help the customers a lot! Thank you!
Sreemoyee Biswas
Timings: 4/5<br/>Open throughout the day, so if u are looking for food at an odd time then turn up here. Tandoor items however start from 7pm. <br/><br/>Ambience: 4/5<br/>Most asife outlets have a fairly good decor, particularly this one with dim lighting, spacious arrangement and comfy sofas. <br/><br/>Food:3/5<br/>Biryani is one of the best in pondicherry but if u are a seasoned biryani lover then u may not like it. Also they give a bowl of sambar with it, which u can ignore definitely. Raita is not upto the mark. <br/>Tandoor items are good. <br/><br/>Service: 4/5<br/>Very courteous and polite. :)<br/>
Little Miss Foodie
I don't know why people leave bad reviews for this place. This is one of the most well designed Aasife Biriyanis in the whole of South India maybe. Their biryani is good too unlike in places like Chennai. This place deserves a better rating.
Neha RS Kesharwani
crab lollipop is the good .... biryani was bad and service was horrible ....they didn't bother our presence<br/>cold food and plz don't go on weekend
Andre Pacheco
checked out this place as it had good ratings on zomato plus it was walkable distance from our hotel.<br/>the ambience is decent, live kitchen facade surrounded by tables. The service was quick and the staff was very friendly. Now coming to the food, we had chicken biryani,prawn masala and chicken chettinad and rotis.<br/>the biryani was good, have had better in Goa and elsewhere but the flavor was good and I would definitely order it again. The prawn masala and chicken chettinad were very good! we were stuffed and couldn't eat more.<br/>would definitely recommend this place as it was quite affordable and the portions we're great!<br/><br/>avg dish cost:180 to 200.<br/>ambience: 3.5/5<br/>food:4.5/5<br/>portions: 4.5/5<br/>price:4/5
Dr. Manthan Sheth
I visited this place around 11:15 pm when almost everything was closed in Pondicherry. But the staff here was well mannered, manager was modest too. Tried their Fried rice and noodles as they were running out of options.<br/>Taste: 3.5/5<br/>Ambiemce: 4/5<br/>Service: 5/5<br/>Packaging: 4.5/5<br/>

Visited this branch on 2nd April 2018 with colleagues. The interiors look like a pirate ship with ropes and bulbs. It was not crowded. We ordered Mughal mutton biriyani, prawn varuval etc., No doubt biriyani was awesome, but still the "Seeraga Samba Rice" biriyani of dindugal thalapakkati still remains my priority. Mughal Mutton biriyani is same as mutton biriyani with egg choped and distributed like it is done in fried rice. Not satisfied with prawn varuval, it doesnt worth the price both in terms of taste as well as quantity. They take around 15 to 20 min approximately to deliver the order to the table, which seems little more compared to their peers in Pondicherry where the deliver the same within 5 minutes even on a crowded day. Just go for the awesome biriyani's.
Nyrmal Kumar
I was just passing by in the M G. road and I read world best biryani... and I fixed my mind to try this place one day... went with the huge expectation their ambiance was good and I ordered for a mutton biryani....to be honest the restaurant met my expectation their biryani was good and the very next day I took my friend who will really go mad for biryani.... and again we ordered for chicken and mutton biryani....we loved it. I am not sure about their other food I hope it will be good but I have a plan to try them someday but whenever I go to their place I always end up in having biryani.
Hemanth Kumar
Stands to serve the best biriyani โค๏ธ in the town..! ๐Ÿฒ<br/>Mutton mughal biriyani with prawn masala and vanjaram fish fry ๐Ÿ˜ makes the best combo ever .. though the prize is lil bit high , it melts with the delicious taste they feed in ๐Ÿฝ <br/>Ambience and the quick serving complements the food ๐Ÿฅ˜๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’™<br/>
Dishanth Deva
Hello am dishanthdeva am order for lollipop Manchurian is very Nice and spicy chicken briyani is amazing in assife .Mr.sivakumar staff service excellent and good ambeiance good hospitallities good place in Pondicherry then come with time family's friends . thank you
Aravindan Sb
The Biryani is Okay. But not creating the cravings for tasting often...<br/>The Price is too high for this Biryani...It doesn't fulfill the taste and quantity ...<br/>Rating:3/5
Guga Chitra
They can never claim it's the world's best briyani where I have tasted the best briyani in Pondicherry which is far better than theirs...The briyani didn't taste like briyani at all...but their service and their home delivery punctuality is really appreciable.....
Himaja
This place has the best biryani I have ever had. But just the biryani but every dish of theirs is worth it. Lip smacking and worth each penny. We ordered chicken lollipop, aasife roast, chicken biryani. All of these were very tasty. I had chicken kothu parantha for the first time and it was just amazing. Parantha chopped into pieces and chicken pieces added to it. <br/>The ambiance was pretty good. It's a huge place and well maintained. Service was good and quick. One will never be be disappointed.<br/>They should open up in Bangalore too.<br/><br/>Ambiance: 4/5<br/>Food: 5/5<br/>Service: 4/5<br/>Price: 4/5
Suresh Chaudhary
Manger don't know how to behave with customer..<br/>Showing wrong menu card.. then asking more money they don't mention whether it's or full plate in menu and after billing said like you should ask earlier..<br/>Very rude behavior of manager<br/><br/>Late order..<br/>Why they hire a manager without management skills.<br/>It's feel like we are on some roadside shop
Garima Nichlani
Thanks place is simply pathetic.. aroma wasn't well at all... The quality of food was not at all up to the mark (don't know about the biryani ) the guy took the order and after half n hr came up to us to tell that biryani was over... We then ordered egg masala n babycorn which were just okish... Nothing enchanting about the food about the service or the ambience... Won't go ever again there thanks
Satta Nathan Viswanathan
Actually i Ordered for home delivery Chicken Biriyani & Prawn Biriyani worst no biriyani taste, it tasted like tomato rice. my Hyderabadi friends got big disappointment about tamil Nadu biryani taste.๐Ÿ‘Ž๐Ÿ‘Ž<br/><br/>In pondicherry small restaurant giving better taste its not easy to survive if you maintain like this.<br/><br/>Try to improve your taste, quality & quantity as well.<br/><br/>
Augustine Kumar
Nice ambience. Staffs are welcoming and friendly..............................................................................................<br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/>

Great Ambience. Service offered by Sasitharan is excellent. Great Food and best service offered. If you ever visit Puducherry please visit This place.
Suneel Banka
Seethaaraman's service was good we enjoyed every item we ordered , EXCELLENT FOOD.<br/>We ordered mutton biryani mughalai prawn biryani chicken pepper barbeque seer fish and brownie with icecream .
Saravana Prakash
Worst customer service. Had to wait for 1 hour still people who booked past me where allotted tables by the manager. When it was our turn they said biryani was over. Also these people were bit rude to customers. Would prefer to give negative ratings.<br/><br/>The other branch near IG statue is far better in service and hospitality.
Swati Nambiar
The prawns was not cleaned, in nathili fry...the fish was stale....and veechu parotha not cooked properly. Overall a disappointing experience.....
Shubhranil Deb
Excellent customer service, great food reasonably priced, ac was perfect, nice ambience. Food wait time is absolutely balanced between starters and main course and desserts. Extremely satisfied.
Anushiya Navneeth
Briyani was good.<br/>Grilled chicken was nice.<br/>Quantity and quality were great.<br/>Service was good and quick.<br/>Ambiance was cool.<br/>Affordable prices
Deepa Jayachandran
They claim to have world's best biryani. Well they don't disappoint you. We ordered 7 starters and 11 biriyanis. They were quick enough to serve the starters. No doubt abt taste. Biriyanis was well cooked with rich raita.<br/><br/>Ambience is great too. Service is ok.<br/><br/>Overall, it's worth trying here.
Ritvij Saxena
Worst aasife biryani I have been to. The only thing good was the kind staff and the worst thing being the food itself. Ordered 3 chicken shawarmas.It was pathetic everything was there except chicken. Cabbage , carrots , onions , tomato ketchup , might as well put soya sauce and give it to us. It was really nasty , we ended our order right there and left. Eat biryani or eat nothing. Think twice before going to this place, they don't know how to make few dishes or never had there own dishes personally or actual authentic food.
Guru
Restaurant is newly opened, ambiance is good, but not welcoming staff. Ordered chicken briyani & fish finger . briyani was not that great less spicy & felt chicken was under cooked. Fish finger was a nightmare it was dry very oily when I complained they didn't bothered of it. Staff was not that friendly they don't even care of their customer's, have to search for them every time. They gave a feedback book when I went through the comments most of them stated the same on fish finger but no action taken. Had really a bad experience
Janani Ramesh
The best biriyani i had in pondy.the service was good. The ambience is lik perfect. The aasife spl bbq chicken is the best. I wud love to eat there again.
Heena Shamsheer
Iโ€™ll never ever order food from Aasife for real. Itโ€™s been more than 2 hours and I still did not get my order. Do you want me to eat my lunch in the evening as a eve snack ? So disappointed with your service!!!!!!!!
Anshuman Danda
Good food but as they as claim the world's best biriyani which is not . AWESOME ambiance. Hotel service and staff are very friendly. Only good place to have sahi food in pondy
Ragav S
Popular among college and family crowd, one of the best biriyani's in pondicherry. Beautifully roasted and spice marinated tandoori's. Pleasant service, just have to wait for the table.
Samiksha
A non- vegetarian's paradise for sure. Sea food, mutton, chicken, egg, you name it and you will get it. Amazing range of food, from baked to grilled, to soups to biriyani... One of my favourites.
Md.ajijul Hoque
Ambiance and services are good. We had Aasife's BBQ fish, Grill chicken, chicken and Mutton biriyani.<br/>Foods were very tasty. Specially loved Mutton biriyani as mutton was very juicy and tender. Couldn't support their claim "World's best biriyani" but taste is really good. This place id worth for value and money.
Kannan Vanangamudi
Already visited a couple of times. First time I had mutton biryani. It was awesome. Succulent mutton pieces and flavourful rice. Probably the best Biryani in Pondicherry if not the best in the world as they claim.<br/><br/>The egg gravy that we ordered was brilliant too.<br/><br/>The falooda was not special.<br/><br/>The second time, we went light. Ordered chicken shawarma and veg kothu parotta.<br/><br/>Shawarma was not great. But the kothu parotta was delicious. A must try I would say.<br/><br/>The restaurant is spick and span and the ambience is fantastic.<br/><br/>But a serious complaint. No parking is provided by the restaurant.<br/><br/>Otherwise great experience
Vignesh Vadivelu
Very good ambience coupled with good serving team. Food was good. Definitely a go to with family. Price is reasonable even with GST on the top it.
