    The restaurant ambience is very good. Looks pretty neat and clean. The cutlery is also classy. Valet parking is available. But am then 3 stars out of 5 because although the food tastes good, it isn't excellent by any means compared to a few other places I have been to and the price they charge is again unreasonable honestly. The extremely hyped MLA Potlam Briyani was presented very nicely but taste wise there is nothing too special really. Only it would look normal, had they had presented it in a normal Briyani pot. For Menu they ask us to scan the QR code and not everyone can do that or not everyone has the means to scan the QR code. So go ahead and give it a try but be mindful that you don't really get to eat anything exemplary for what they charge.

    Food tastes great and Spicy as the name suggests. Loved the MLA Potlam Biryani and Dragon Chicken. Apricot Delight is a must try! The hardest part is the waiting you had to do. We waited for approximately 20 minutes to get a table. Overall, a great experience!

    Food is good here and really spicy. If you are not used to Andhra spice then tell them beforehand to make it mild. Some of the original andhra dishes can not be made milder though. Deserts are also unique and delicious.

    Located at Siripuram circle near Ironhills brewery..the restaurant has its separate fan base for the cuisine they serve and for the usage of level of spice also. There is a waiting period of 15-20 mins on an average. Ordered Loose Prawn and their signature dish MLA Potlam Biryani and Apricot Delight. Prawn was tasty. Biryani was somehow dry. Dessert was good undoubtedly. However, personally felt that dishes are overpriced compared to the quality and quantity. Overall verdict- recommended once for change of taste.

    The food will be good for localities. The outsiders like who lives in Hyderabad, food will be okay okay for them. Dont compare food city to city. We tried mla pottlam biryani, lamb biryani, soups, starters and paneer biryani. Waiting time will be high, please reserve you table before 30 mins.

    Spicy venue, Vizag, was truly a good place to go have dinner. We friends went mainly coz we are all a fan of their apricot delight. Other dishes we ordered, both veg and non veg, were good. Especially the Garlic Prawns.

  • 5/5 Vivek G. 2 years ago on Google
    It was a very busy restaurant and the famous item is MLS potlam biriyani which costs around 400 and servers for two people approximately that biriyani will be a bit Spicer so after having that biriyani try apricot delight that was a famous desert that will be a great combo😊

  • 5/5 Vamsi K. 1 year ago on Google
    I love visting this place often. Of course MLA Potlam biryani being my favourite. Took my buddies from btech after a long time. They totally loved olavacharu and potlam biryani. Royyala fry and chicken lollipop is amazing too. Bit spicy tho. But thats how it is in spicy venue. You should be specific about your spicy levels while ordering if not you end up getting spicy stuff. Over all a good experience. Would recommend going again. It gets busy around 1:30 to 3 especially on weekends. So plan accordingly

    We visited this restaurant due to the hype we got from our friends. We reached at 10.25pm but were able to get the table and order everything in time before kitchen closed. Soup: Chicken manchow soup, this should be textbook, but it wasn’t tasting manchow, though it tasted good. Appetizers: Apollo Fish, Chilli Garlic Prawns and Veg Manchuria were too good options. Just no complaints. Apollo Fish was spicy and beat the other two. Mains: Extremely hyped MLA Potlam Biryani was a let down, we couldn’t get the real taste of it due to the sharp spice flavors. Have had better versions of these elsewhere. Won’t recommend. Special Chicken Biryani is the boneless version of chicken biryani. Nothing great, just usual one. Dessert: Again a famous dessert here, Apricot Delight was hyped by our friends. We almost ordered 7 of them for each of us. Luckily we canceled half of them in last min. Too sweet. Recommend eating it there. We were given in to go boxes much before we finished our main course as it was closing time. Ice cream melted by the time we had it. Couldn’t get the best taste of it. Overall an average experience, could have been better for the expensive prices.

    The place has a good footfall due to it's prime location. The food varieties were also tasty. There were no fried rice items but only biryanis when I last visited. The service was also very good. Overall a good place to dine.

  • 4/5 Chetan S. 10 months ago on Google
    So, we had the most hyped MLA Potlam Biryani and it was sooo worth it! The reasons for losing a star are: unusual wait time on a weekday and also the atmosphere could’ve been a bit better!!

    A perfect Andhra food restaurant. The fish pulisu , veg meals , avakai biryani were all fantastic . The potlam biryani is a hype . The apricot dessert to finish a delicious meal is the best thing to do in spicy venue

    Ambience was calm and nice… food was a bit spicy but nice… we had cream of mushroom soup , paneer tikka, MLA Potlam biryani, sweet lassi and apricot delight…. Apricot delight is the highlight of all… potlam biryani was as well good. They have wallet parking too…but, it is generally crowded and you will have to wait during peak hours

    The restaurant is medium in size and good for dine in. We awaited for much time to get in due to weekend rush. The food tastes good and hygiene. Potlam biryani has served nice in quantity and Taste. Apricot Delit has to be the ending signature.

  • 5/5 Tanushree s. 2 months ago on Google • 19 reviews New
    The restaurant seems to be busy mostly post 8pm. We went there on a weekday around 10pm and still we had to wait for more than 30 mins. So do take time and go there, especially at night. But the wait will be worth it. Food is great and quantity is also sufficient for 2 person's good filling. We had MLA potlam briyani, looks & tastes delicious! In dessert, do try apricot delight and triffle pudding, its yummy!!!

  • 4/5 Ankita B. 2 years ago on Google
    Must have the MLA Potlam Biryani. Make sure you are going empty stomach otherwise it's difficult to finish

  • 3/5 Brock L. 2 years ago on Google
    One of the most hyped restaurant in Vizag which is located in the middle of the city, taste and quality not up to the mark, too costly for the quality given, ambience is good but the service is not cordial MLA potlam biryani is not at all recommended in Vizag when compared to Hyderabad as it’s too dry and spicy

  • 4/5 Vivek J. 2 years ago on Google
    Had to wait for 40 mins to get a table. Food is good. Ambience is good. Service is good. Apricot Delight is awesome.

  • 4/5 Arjun 2 years ago on Google
    Food was good. Starters and main course are yummy but potlam biryani was very spicy due to which it was missing original taste.

  • 4/5 SIVA S. 3 years ago on Google
    Potlam biryani special here, tasty with little spicy.

  • 4/5 The Hungry Vizag G. 3 years ago on Google
    This place is always crowded , no wonder why because the food here is that good. Most important thing to remember is this is the 1st restaurant to introduce MLA potlam Biryani. The mla potlam biryani is something unique in town and you will find it no where else. The biryani is wrapped by a thin layer of omlette and the biryani rice consists of masala which is cooked along with mutton keema and prawns. I also tried vegetable biryani which is pathetic. 😬

  • 3/5 Geethika 2 years ago on Google
    Show me something better than apricot delight and I’ll wait. I’d eat it everyday and still not get bored.

  • 4/5 Ashish G. 3 months ago on Google • 13 reviews New
    Decent place with good food. The only thing which I think was not worth was their veg spring rolls. They were very expensive with ok ok taste. Funny part is that the egg biryani costed 325 while spring rolls were 320.🤣

  • 3/5 David Y. 1 year ago on Google
    I was excited about the potlum biryani but I was disappointed by the flavor. It was way to spicy for my taste. The other food was fine. The butter chicken and Naan were very good.

  • 4/5 pavan t. 1 year ago on Google
    Best spicy food i ever had..and authentic dishes one can find here . Moreover, this place serves a unique biriyani wrapped in omelet..one must definitely experience it

  • 3/5 Priya P. 1 year ago on Google
    We ordered Veg Thali and Avakaya Veg Biryani for lunch. The dishes looked scrumptious but taste was nothing exceptional for the price we paid for and I felt that the Biryani was too spicy. On the bright side, their famous Apricot Delight was delicious.

  • 4/5 Bhumika T. 10 months ago on Google
    The Spicy Venue Restaurant lunch MLA Potlam biryani - this is a unique style to serve biryani( they wrap it inside omelette) MLA Potlam Biryani - The biryani stuffed inside the thingolden-yellow omelet is also not your regular biryani, it is brimming with the goodness of juicy mutton keema and spicy prawns. The omelet is made in a heavy kadhai and seasoned with red chili powder. Once cooked, it is carefully scraped out and placed on a plate, the biryani is placed right in the center and the edges are folded and the entire omelet is used to nicely wrap the biryani. This 'wrap' is then served hot with a spicy curry or salan SEI VEU T10t with a and raita.Apricot Delite in sweet.

    As it was a Sunday, we were searching for a best nonveg restaurant to have lunch in Google and were zeroed down by this restaurant because of their reviews. We reached there by 2pm and they have asked us to wait for 20 mins but it increased and we were seated @ 2.45pm. We have tried their trademark dishes Apollo fish MLA potlam biryani Apricot delight The Apollo fish is very crispy from outside and juicy inside. The MLA potlam biryani is simply delicious, and it was wrapped in an omelet with kheema n prawns biryani inside. Finally, as a dessert, we had their Apricot delight, and it is just WoW n mouth watering. The restaurant is situated on the ground n 1st floor. There is a huge rush of people, mostly families, in spite of their waiting time. We were given the seating on the ground floor, and the restaurant is a little congested, and there is no proper AC facility either. The service is a little slow, and the staff were cordial.

  • 1/5 Santosh K. 9 months ago on Google
    I recently had the misfortune of dining at a restaurant that left me thoroughly disappointed and dissatisfied. From the moment I stepped through the door, it became clear that this establishment was far from meeting even the most basic standards of quality. Let me outline the multiple reasons why this dining experience was nothing short of a disaster. First and foremost, the food was excessively spicy, to the point where it overwhelmed any chance of savoring the flavors or enjoying the meal. It seemed like the chef's sole mission was to assault our taste buds with an unrelenting barrage of heat. It's one thing to have spicy options on the menu for those who enjoy them, but when every dish is drenched in a fiery inferno, it becomes an unbearable ordeal for anyone with a more delicate palate. The lack of balance and consideration for different taste preferences was a clear sign of incompetence in the kitchen. Furthermore, the waiting time at this restaurant was utterly ridiculous.The restaurant seemed to have no regard for its customers' time or their commitment to choosing their establishment. It was as if they thought our valuable time was expendable and inconsequential. Overall, my experience at this restaurant was a complete disaster. From the unnecessarily spicy food to the exasperating waiting time and the lack of consideration for healthy choices, it was a total letdown. I strongly advise anyone seeking an enjoyable dining experience to steer clear of this establishment. There are countless other restaurants that provide exceptional service, well-balanced menus, and respect for their customers' time and taste preferences. Save yourself the disappointment and frustration by opting for a more competent and customer-oriented dining establishment.

  • 4/5 Srinivasa M. 3 years ago on Google
    Place is good... MLA potlam biriyani is famous over there, but it is of mutton and others. It would be better to serve egg biriyani in potlam biriyani style.. so that who don't eat NV would also get the experience of it.

  • 3/5 Satya R. 3 years ago on Google
    Everyone must've heard about this restaurant mostly about 2 reasons- MLA Potlam Biryani and Apricot Delight dessert. We went there only for these 2 dishes. Restaurant was nice, hygiene is well maintained and Social distance too. Without any delay we ordered Potlam Biryani which arrived instantly literally within a minute. Yes, Omelette is not freshly made, it was made earlier, biryani was wrapped in the Omelette after the order is placed. Taste: Omelette is not good with no salt or chili powder mixed in it, just the chili powder was sprinkled across the Omelette after being cooked which didn't blend well. Taste of Biryani is just average didn't meet our expectations, Keema and Prawns are very minimal in quantity. Coming to Apricot Delight we didn't order after eating the biryani not meeting our expectations, we paid 400/- for one MLA Potlam Biryani and 500ml water bottle which didn't feel right.

  • 1/5 Ram N. 3 years ago on Google
    We visited the place this Sunday 24 Jan 2021. We were asked to wait for 30 mins and we waited. They have displayed a big board naming some special dishes. When we got the table and sat, we have asked for the so called specials. The staff says none of the specials are available. It's just like making us forcibly eat what is available after making us wait for more than 30 mins. Our bill has ended up as INR 900+ for eating white rice, mutton curry and country chicken curry which can be even more cheaper in local mess. Mutton mulaga kaya was also pathetic. 2 pieces of drum stick and few pieces of mutton and for country chicken curry which is mix of broiler chicken and bones of country chicken to fool us. Just fooling customers by giving adulterated food. PATHETIC SERVICE. WOULDN'T RECOMMEND THIS PLACE AS GOOD EATERY FOR FOOD LOVERS. This is the the third time we faced this kind of issue.
