Noorani Restaurant — Restaurant in Mumbai

Year 2004, I used to work out of Mahalaxmi and heard of this popular eatery called NOORANI. All my colleagues would rave about the food. I love biryani, would bring fond childhood memories of the aroma surrounding my home when mom would cook especially around a memorable family occasion. NOORANI, for me, was reminiscent of that. The Biryani was heavenly, worth the price paid for and I would order to celebrate personal milestones in the work place. Even the Gravy and Roomali were a regular order for me.

Year 2024, 2 decades later, no longer working around Mahalaxmi, Mom is hospitalized. I said to myself, I will order from NOORANI when Mom is discharged so I can take home wonderful memories along the way along with the happiness of a dish I so very much loved.

Unfortunately, what was served was a thick mess of basmati rice, handful of chicken pieces, oil and a thick gravy that one would never even use even in a Biryani.

Disappointed is not even the least of what I felt. Cost 325/- Ingredients and cooking used were not even worth 100/-. I wonder what has happened to NOORANI. One beautiful memory in...

Had ordered food from here They were not picking up the call initially. When picked up they cut the call. There was a lot of rush at the restaurant it seems!! which is always a good sign! So ehen the call finally connected and they didnt cut it, I placed order for one plate chicken lollipop and two plate Chicken tikka biryani!! The food delivery was quick! The food tasted amazing!! The frustration during the calling for ordering was compensated by delicious food! Both the dishes we ordered were yummy! Chicken wss cooked well. Their Shezwan chutney doesnt have a lot of oil, salt and is medium spicy perfect for the lollipops! Give it a try you...

The food was tasty and yum. We had food at the AC Section of the restaurant, while going to the seating area we could literally see their kitchen/store room where chicken and other sorts of stuff were just lying around totally uncovered. That made me feel seriously concerned about their hygiene. The AC Room is pretty small and has just 3-4 tables. If you have a large group of 8-10 people then you'll have to sit at separate tables and have your meal.

Now coming to the food, as I mentioned at the start of my review the food here is no doubt good and quite reasonable as well. Value for money i.e. if you don't fall sick...
