Biryani is decent much better than what you get at some restaurants.
Had tried both chicken and lamb biryani on 2 different occasions. Tasted good. Chicken piece was well cooked and so is the lamb. If you are looking for more of a Hyderabadi dum biryani, then you can give it a try. The Mirchi ka salan was not served with the biryani and had to request it but it was bland and a big let down.
This place has been consistently good for the last 8 years I have been going there. Great curries, chicken 65, garlic naan bread, Biryani, I never get tired of them.
Looking for a good biryani in Melbourne? Biryani house is the place to be. Ambience...zero. Service...rushed. Quality...heavenly. My wife had the biryani and it was authentic and cooked to perfection. The rice was long and pure. I had naan with chicken and it was faultless. There's a reason this establishment is crowded and busy! Quality is great, service is poor! You decide...
The most incredible food ever, been coming here for years! Everything is cooked perfectly every time. Best garlic naan I’ve ever eaten. Truly delicious.
Guys this is a place to go, when you are not feeling to cook the places to go in my list would definitely be this. Great on the buds and pocket friendly as well. Even from people around the world have a taste of what India eats at times and why they relish their food. This is a good try for the people who lack the knowledge about biryani.
Though nothing really fancy about the decor but still not a bad try.
My favorite indian restaurant. I ussually go for lunch with their menu in bain~marie. Meat n veggie curry with rice, and it only cost u $8.5. Their portion especially the rice is super generous, it always keep me full the whole day and even nite.

Behold Desi Citizens of the Great Aussie Land... and also the other Homo Sapiens, in search of the Authentic Rice Dish of the Mughals and Nawabs (and others)...... If you like Biryani, this is where you've gotta be...
I have been disappointed by the dim witted, half Indian cuisines that other Indian budget places have offered so far at Melbourne, and I must say.... This place is as Authentic as Authentic can be (Add in the crammed space and little respect to hygiene).... Once you enter, it smells and feels like the rustic old Hyderabad :)
Trust me, if this place was any bigger and cleaner..... They are a serious contenders for a 5 Star rating!
Back to the food ..... One word for their Biryanis.... Amazing!
Price, quantity, quality and aroma.... All are perfect.... I am sure that I can be hanged by the tight necked elite of the Biryani world.... But if you have ever Eaten a Biryani at Hyderabad's famous small shops (Mostly from the small nooks and lanes of the Old City).... You will agree with me, that this place is as close as it gets to the real deal
For me, the real game changer has been their 'TANDOORI CHICKEN (TC)', and unlike the most other places at Melbourne.... Their tandoori chicken comes from a Tandoor! The great Indian Clay Oven... At least, it has been cooked on Charcoals, My nose bears witness to the aroma that still seems to be lingering at the back of my head,,..... You can surely savor far better TC in India.... But remember, this ain't no India.... and this is a good job done by them, for being miles away from home.....
You may wonder at my sheer love for this place, and yet a rating that seems far from my words.... Well, the problem really was the fact, that this place is not fit for a Sunday noon Lunch... I mean, just ask them to parcel it and go home and Enjoy the treats.... But the restaurant itself is very tiny and in urgent need of hygienic overhaul of the places of the calls from Nature...
FINAL VERDICT..... Indians , Countrymen (plus women) and lovers of the great Indian food..... Please visit this place, and 'Take Away' your favorite meal.....
Cheers!
There's an old adage that says "eat where the locals eat". Well in Melbourne if an Indian restaurant is often frequented by Indians it must be pretty good. And BH is simply that - good. Very good in fact. Having lived in India (Hyderabad, coincidentally) and nowadays frequently travel to various parts of India for work, the dum biryani and lamb kurma here is as authentic as it gets. Yes the place is semi-dirty and claustrophobic, but my goodness I don't think you can better better value for Indian food anywhere else. So stop by, hang out with the Indian migrants in this great city and enjoy.
The place where you can crash anytime, the Biryani and other main course are good in taste. My favourite dalcha was very nicely prepared, the main course in lamb are really tasty.
Such a nice experience. Order chicken baryani and I give 10 out of 10 for taste. Rice was cooked really well. Bryani spies were not out of order, they look really taste while you are eating.
Easy going staff, when we arrived it was full house still the way staff was doing its job was remarkable . Thanks for the food. Keep up the good work.
Ordered a goat biryani. Got it with complimentary chutney. Good amount of meat I should say. I was expecting like one or two pieces but it has like 5. Anyways, nicely cooked and tender meat, and delicious overall and only for 14 AUD.
My go to place for biryani.. I've been having their goat/lamb biryani since 2014 and my husband since 2007.. believe me it comes out with exactly same taste every single time. Me and my husband might have had their biryani 100s of times. Fantastic aroma and flavourful rice.. reminds me of Hyderabad. Now our kids love it too.!!
I don’t know what all the hate is about. Let me set the scene: my family and I had just hopped out of the cab and we realised it was nearly midnight. We looked around google for a restaurant and immediately found Biryani House. We ordered a butter chicken, masala and a few other dishes. They came out promptly and we loved it. They close late and the food is good for the price. You will expect to find it a little hard to find a table as taxi drivers are constantly taking breaks inside. Overall really good and a lovely experience.
