    Food taste is great (checked Hyderabadi Biryani platter that day)! Didn't try other food at this outlet so can't comment. Service: standard. Interior and seating arrangement good. Fresh room: external, standard and clean. Overall nice.

    Handi is a well known restaurant in Dhanmondi...Environment and interior was okay... Hydrabadi Biriyani taste was bad...Satffs were not professional...overall experience was disappointing...

    It presents a very aristocratic and intricate interior decoration. They served in copper bowl which they call "handi" We ordered hydrabadi biriani which was above average. We had salted lacchi and it was good too. But to me the biriany should have been more spicy. The faluda was exceptionally tasty . Paneer karhai was also delicious but of little quantity

    They have been serving one of the best indian cousine at Bangladesh. The is always satisfying. They won't fill you up with quantity but very decent quality food. I am concerned that the service is becoming slower. Their traditional food choices are remarkable. Must visit a place for lunch and dinner.

    Unfortunately it wasn't the best experience. Food took really long time to be served. Hydrabadi mutton biryani wasn't all that good, it tasted a little like soap to me. Butter tikki masala was the best item we ordered. Special Masala Dosa was really good too. The restaurant needs to do some mosquito management.

  • 4/5 Souradeep D. 1 year ago on Google
    Always liked this place. Although the Hyderabadi biryani’s quality fell a little, it still is pretty good. The most underrated thing in their menu is their jol-jeera which goes amazing with the biryani. Their service is also good, and they have a pretty clean setup. A place to go if you like mild-spiced Indian foods in Dhaka.

    The quality and quantity experienced a significant decline, despite the appealing decor. The butter chicken , hyderabadi biriyani and garlic nun failed to match their previous taste, and the portion size didn't justify the price.

    It’s a family friendly place so you’ll mostly see parents with their kids. The place can get a very noisy too. But if you want to enjoy the indian food, you’ll love their menu. I’d highly recommend the butter chicken and garlic naan.

    All the foods were amazing, we had set menu A, which were consists of chicken Tikka, butter naan, vegetables, and yogurt. Also we had lacha paratha, garlic naan, and chicken Tikka kabab, all were delicious. I liked the vegetables most, definitely a must try. The naan was very soft. Tikka in both dishesh were very tender, masala was just perfect. Amount was good for 2 person. The environment was nice, service was satisfactory.

    So So experience, waiters were lazy, we had to call them several times to bring a glass. and they don't accept any digital mobile wallet payments (bkash,nagad,upay,nexuspay). It's hard to accept in 2022. We tried platter 2 which was good but we ordered a Special Handi Salad they quality has been degraded drastically!! We have only found two pinch of chicken and there was only few cashews, it was all tomatoes and cucumbers and carrots. And they charge 200/= for this low quality salad! Such a shame! I have tried it before in other outlets and those were good. But in this one it's horrible. Avoid if you can 🙂

    For haydrabadi biriyani I prefer Handi. Recently I ordered and got 2 mutton with perfect taste. But there was disappointment due to no cashew nut and mint leaves; a few boiled egg flecks

    Handi is one of those authentic indian places with which you can't go wrong. With traditional indian menu and great taste, handi offers just as they say they do. A great family diner. I recently went to handi with my friends. We took the traditional handi biriyani, and faluda as dessert. Their handi biriyani is one of its class. I wouldn't say it's too oily or spicy. The flavor is clear but moderate, and light to the tastebuds. You can have lots of this biriyani in one sitting, because it's appetizing. And, the meat is tender and sufficiently large. And the faluda was a great refreshment in the end. It was topped with seasonal fruit and jello cubes. The sweetness was perfect. Although the faluda seemed a bit pricey to me, it was worth it in the end. Oh, and for the vegetarian folks, this place offers vegetarian options too.

    Decor is okay. Too many tables in a narrow place give 0 privacy to customers to even talk. Food is not good.

    good place for social gathering like birthday parties or office parties but due to Corona I believe they should make little more space! Tables are close like normal marriage halls (বিয়ে বাড়ি)। 🙄 Food is good. 👍

    I enjoyed the dish I ordered. I ordered a set menu and in that I mostly loved the malai chingri and the chicken was not that tasty according to me. Overall, a bit more than average go to place.

  • 5/5 Asif H. 8 months ago on Google • 24 reviews
    Their Hyderabadi Biriyani was the best to me. Overall the prices are high compared to other restaurants. The environment is cozy and seating easiness was better. Alu Paratha and Chicken dishes are also better. 🫰

  • 3/5 Shajid M. 1 year ago on Google • 20 reviews
    The place is good and suitable for family outing. Clean, hygienic. I will give it 4 out of 5. But I don’t like the food. I have eaten Hydrabadi Biriyani in many restaurants but never tasted anything like that. Hydrabadi Biriyani always tests a little Spicy, Masaldar. But this Hydrabadi Biriyani is too sweet 😑. Also the Korai Gost was also sweet. Quantity is enough. I liked the Alu ka Paratha. It’s one of my favourite and best eaten Alu Ka paratha in dhaka. Recommended

    Interior looks good. Thats only good thing about the restaurant. Food was average or below average. They didnt provide salad with the food, said we had to pay even for salad. We had Hydrabadi biriyani and pani puri. None of it was good. Service wasn't good.

    I tried Their Dosa and Hyderabadi Biriyani, The Side dish that they serve with dosa has coconut chunks in it which was delicious and their biriyani is best.

  • 2/5 Mahmudul H. 2 years ago on Google
    I tried the mutton haidrabadi & chicken biryani. Both of them are not good. Mutton biryani's rice had a wired flavor and the meat was cooked but not tender, it was tough. Chicken biryani had a good aroma but the rice was sweet.

  • 2/5 Saud O. 2 years ago on Google
    Very disappointed with their quality especially after covid. Doi fuchka was cold and bland. Chicken tandoori was okay. Dal makkhani was very spicy and taste did change as if chef has been replaced. Overall really disappointed and ended up having food poisoning.

    Compared to the original Handi in Chittagong, this is not okay. Food tastes really different in a negative way. I hope they get better.

  • 2/5 Shudipta C. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) I took Hyderabadi raw tea, a little sweet ... I liked the meat, but I didn't like the rice. I was looking for borhani with kachchi, he said no. When I told him that there was no salad with him, he said that I have to buy it ..... The service is fine, the environment is good, the food is good but the service is not good. ..

  • 5/5 Maruf Abdullah A. 3 years ago on Google
    Great for all occasions, Indian cuisine style is wide, and fascinating. Ranging from mild Lassi drinks, to super hot curries, to homely flat breads and vegetarian curries, great for non meat eaters, there's something for everyone with Indian food. Good for a small friendly gathering to watch a film, or as a great treat at the end of a long hard week at work, Indian also works for parties. Samosas, Pakoras and other bite sized nibbles are easy to eat and serve. It's also great for sumptuous dinner parties and celebrations too.
