Nawab's Biryani House — Restaurant in Houston

Nawab Biryani, located on Eldridge Parkway in Houston, is a true gem for lovers of authentic Indian cuisine, especially if you’re a fan of flavorful biryani and a variety of spicy dishes. Their Chicken Dum Biryani stands out as a signature dish, bursting with traditional flavors and perfectly cooked rice. The chicken is tender, and the spices are aromatic, making this dish a must-try for any biryani enthusiast.

Beyond the biryani, Nawab offers a fantastic selection of curries and appetizers. We had the Goat Vindaloo, which was rich, tangy, and packed a punch with its heat. The goat was tender and perfectly seasoned, making it a delightful option for those who enjoy bold, spicy dishes. The Andhra Chicken was another standout, with its fiery flavors that showcase the cuisine of the Andhra region. If you’re looking for something a bit creamier and milder, the Chicken Korma is a perfect choice, offering a beautifully balanced dish with a smooth, rich gravy that doesn’t compromise on flavor.

One of the family’s favorite dishes is the Chicken 65. This dish is a hit with the kids, thanks to its tangy, spicy flavor that is bold but not overwhelming. It’s crispy on the outside and perfectly cooked inside, making it a perfect appetizer or snack.

The variety of appetizers on offer adds to the experience, ensuring there’s something for everyone. Whether you’re in the mood for rich curries, aromatic biryanis, or quick bites, Nawab Biryani is an excellent spot for an unforgettable...

This is a takeout place. They do have a dining area... but it's a bit sad. This feels like eating in a low-rent employee break room. We sat at a laminate table missing a chunk of veneer on the outside corner (exposing the underlying MDF/particle-board).

While the counter service was unremarkable (neither good nor bad), the food was pretty good! The chicken Tikka "gravy" (sauce) was excellent. The chicken itself... was a bit dry and tough. Everything is served for carry-out -- styrofoam plates, plastic utensils, and even a plastic to-go container.

I would order carry-out from this place (if I was nearby). I do not recommend eating, there. They have bottled water (and drinks?) for sale. If not for the wonderful flavor of the gravy/sauce... I wouldn't give it another chance. Ah, and there are even signs pointing to the trash can -- as implied, we disposed of our own trash (felt sad -- so much waste/environmental damage). The only thing missing was a sign stating that employees must wash...
