a week agoHighly recommended!! This is a phenomenal restaurant, with a diverse selection of vegetarian and non-vegetarian items (and a few egg dishes listed under meats that would be OK for those who follow lacto-ovo). As a vegetarian, I found the menu especially exciting due to the presence of several dishes that are very hard to encounter in a meatless configuration. Jackfruit Haleem was an intoxicating start to dinner, with the right consistency, complexity of spice, and a bit of unexpected-but-welcome sweetness (presumably from the jackfruit). Following, we indulged in Mudda Pappu Avakaya Annam, a bit mellower but richly savory and punchily tart, complemented by the comfort of fresh omelet and paper-thin, unadorned papad. Delicious all-around. For the main course, two very special vegetarian adaptations: A Spinach "Liver-style" Masala and vegetarian Keema Biryani. Brilliant! Spinach Masala was executed in the general style of Kaleji Masala, but if you are imagining a handful of frozen spinach wandering haplessly through a bland tomato stew, you will be pleased to know this is hardly the case. Instead, what you will receive is a firey curry, almost too assertive, tempered beautifully by delicate spinach dumplings that retain their form until the critical moment when they unfurl gently on consumption. Imagine something more akin in texture to downy kofta or stuffed gnocchi, as opposed to firm pakora. Taken together, these two elements play off each other exceptionally well, balancing finely texture and taste. A delicacy. Lots of meat substitute products lend themselves well to keema preparation, of course, and I suspect many do this at home, as I do. However, giving this the full biryani treatment requires a level of commitment and free time I can't hope to have until retirement (if even then). What a delight, therefore, to find this on the menu. It's a nice alternative to the more common vegetable biryanis, and quite enjoyable when raita and salan are provided. By the way, the staff are very friendly, and quite enthusiastic about the food. The environment was spotless, and the moody, vibrant interior instantly scrubbed away any notion of being in a strip mall. In sum, please do treat yourself to the unique offerings at this great establishment! I'm excited to return.

a month agoThey had the soft opening menu when we visited. The biryani was good but what took me by surprise was the jackfruit haleem. As someone who has had traditional haleem, the jackfruit haleem was a fantastic vegetarian alternative.

2 months agoWe happened to stop by the card shop next door and saw Bowl O Biryani, looked at the menu and came in! They have only been open for two days so we got really lucky. The atmosphere was beautiful and clean. There were two gorgeous murals painted on the walls that we could not stop staring at. The staff were so friendly and knowledgeable too! But… let me talk about the food…WOW! My boyfriend and I love Indian food, and this is a place we will definitely recommend to friends and family. From the presentation to the taste, this place excelled in all areas. I think we said “oh my gosh, this is so good!” at least 10 times while eating. We got the paneer tikka, butter chicken and garlic naan. We will be back to try more!
