    Great food at affordable rates. They offer yummy foods at budget friendly rates with consistency in taste for each time i went and had food there. There is big sitting space for around 100-120 persons at a time. They have dedicated parking space also. The atmosphere is neat and hygiene. The service is good but need lil more improvement in terms of service time and coordination as sometimes wrong product is served and mixing up of table orders do happen. Recommended ❤️

    A good place to have mandi varieties in authentic taste. Their Turkish peri peri chicken is a must try one. The place is a bit crowdy. The rates are reasonable. I won't recommend to buy salads from here, it was only cut veggies and fruits with no dressing in it.

    Food was good but not that much good, because I had food from there. The taste of the food was something different. Please don't miss understood, what I meant is only taste of the food is different. Interior is good, atmosphere of this restaurant is good.

    One of the best dum biriyani spots in trivandrum with 2 large tender nad juicy chicken pieces and masala immersed in perfectly cooked rice. Been a regular here since 2016. Grill items are a must try, tandoori being my favourite. Good quality quantity and budget friendly. Good service and nice ambience. A cute little space for children to play too. Amble parking space for more than 10 cars. Do visit and have a go at this place. Recommended for biriyani lovers and other foodies too.

    I visited Halais Dum Biryani in Trivandrum, and I must say, it was an exceptional dining experience. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm hospitality and a cozy ambiance. The restaurant's interior was tastefully decorated, creating a comfortable and inviting atmosphere. The staff was attentive and friendly, ensuring that all my needs were met throughout my visit. They were also knowledgeable about the menu and provided excellent recommendations. Now, let's talk about the star of the show - the biryani. Halais Dum Biryani truly lives up to its reputation as one of the best biryani places in Trivandrum. The aroma of the spices filled the air as the biryani was brought to my table. The presentation was impeccable, with each grain of rice perfectly cooked and the meat tender and flavorful. The biryani had the perfect balance of spices, with each bite bursting with a harmonious blend of flavors. The meat was cooked to perfection, melting in my mouth with every bite. The portion size was generous, ensuring that I left the restaurant feeling satisfied and content. In addition to the biryani, I also tried some of their other dishes, such as the chicken tikka and the butter naan. Both were equally delicious and complemented the biryani perfectly. The flavors were authentic and reminded me of the rich and diverse cuisine of India. Overall, my visit to Halais Dum Biryani was a delightful experience. The food was exceptional, the service was top-notch, and the ambiance was inviting. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for an authentic and memorable biryani experience in Trivandrum.

    Usually I try their biriyani but this visit we ordered Mixed fried rice, garlic chicken and porotta. All the dishes were good, neat service and clean. Overall a fine experience. The restaurant situated opposite Infosys in the bypass, has plenty of seating.

    We tried Alfaham Chicken Mandi and Chicken Dum Biryani. Both were good but Mandi was very tasty! Dum Biryani was Kerala Style(rice was steamed) but flavours were less ( I am a fan of Hyderabadi Style more!). Chicken Pieces of Dum Biryani were soft and well cooked. Alfaham Chicken was lip smacking. Highly Recommend it! We also tried Mint Mojito. Very very refreshing and totally worth the 70Rs charged . Ordered a second glass too 😜

    I had ordered Mutton biryani which cost me Rs 340/-.Food was very good and with quantity for two persons with medium appetite. Although the price is more, the food quality and quantity speaks for the price

  • 5/5 Reshma L. 8 months ago on Google
    Nice food with good quantity and quality, neat and clean restaurant and washroom....kids have a small play area to be engaged.

  • 5/5 DEEPAK V. 4 months ago on Google
    The food is a bit costly compared to the other restaurants. Food is really good here in this restaurant. The quantity of food they serve is also very high. No complaints on the quality of food as well. The only drawback I have observed is the wash room. The gents toilet was unhygienic. There was no water in the toilet. It is always such a crowded restaurant and they could have kept a house keeping guy to clean the wash room area every now and then.

  • 1/5 Aadarsh S P. 1 year ago on Google
    Fraud activity is done by restuarant. When we order a quarter portion of Chicken alfaham they serve a small portion. Please do visit a good restuarant a study what is meant by Chicken's quarter portion. This is there usually activity, myself I faced it two times. Earlier days it was ok, but during rush they do such fraud activity and cheat customers like anything.

    I went here with an accomplice and had their special chicken dum biriyani and mint lime, which was nice and good despite the fact that it wasn't budget friendly (if you're searching for one). The restaurant is located on the main road and has a designated parking space. They also offer a huge seating capacity (>100 seats) and a separate entertainment area for children (4 years). The restaurant is clean and tidy. It was my first time at this restaurant, and we didn't have to wait long for our orders, which pleased me.

    I tried the ghee rice and chicken roast here. There was a huge rush even after 3 pm here and I obviously thought it would be because the place is pretty famous here. The staff is polite and responsive and good service. Maybe because I'm from a different city I didn't find the food to be amazingly good but its alright. I've heard quite good reviews about the people who stay here though

  • 3/5 abilash b. 1 year ago on Google
    The restaurant looks fine. Has enough space to accommodate people. Also there is a small kids play area.There is also parking area and is ample. Noticing these I had high hope for the food. I ordered a dum biryani and it was noon. The quantity was quite enough to fill a person.But once I tasted the biryani, I felt quite disheartened. The food was not warm enough and the meat was chewy. Few of my friends also had the same opinion.

  • 3/5 Anuroop S. 1 year ago on Google
    Had tikka and kuboos, tikka was over cooked😕 not very peak time. Also had afgan tandoor and butter naan, it was ok. Parking is good, service is good, neat and clean place. Waiting period was high😕

  • 5/5 Hari K. 1 year ago on Google
    Best spot for mandi, biriyani and rice items. There's peri peri chicken is a must try item. Spicy and hot chicken flavor. Nice ambience and cool place to go with family or friends. Rates are correct. Not high or not low. They are also giving open air seatings but when the time I went, its closed for some reasons. Overall good experience
