Word of mouth
The handi does the talking.
Just tasted your biryani, and it's easily one of the best biryanis I've ever had! Absolutely shaandaar, lajawab, and full of authentic flavours — every bite perfectly balanced, with amazing aroma, tender meat, and rich spices.
I had a fauji party with my foodie friends. Actually I'm a fan of Biryani By Kilo, so was not very sure about the taste of Baab-e-Biryani, though there were a lot of recommendations. Mr Zaid (owner) called me up and said, I'm sending a sample of biryani to your place… oh my God, it was the best biryani I ever had — better than Behrouz, Biryani By Kilo and Pista House! Baab-e-Biryani, you are the best in Delhi. BAAP-E-BIRYANI ❤️ Taste so sumptuous, soft and tender chicken, perfect match of masalas, and the icing on the cake was perfectly cooked long-grain rice. And the Veg Kathal Biryani nailed all the veg biryanis in the country! God bless team Baab-e-Biryani. Mr Zaid, aapke haathon mein shafa hai 🙏
I've eaten at Idris, Alkauser, and Dastarkhwan in Lucknow, Delhi — but this place is so similar. Pocket-friendly too. The best part? Serve it to your near and dear ones — they'll ask who made this and it'll make you feel special. The aroma, oil level, spice level, rice texture… just wow. Give it a try once and you'll go crazy for it.
As a vegetarian, I didn’t have high hopes from biryani — but this was indeed some biryani and not veg pulao. The masala, the flavour, just wow.

All questions The questions we get most, straight answered.
- Is your biryani very spicy?
- Awadhi biryani isn't built on chilli heat — it's aromatic, layered with saffron, cardamom, cloves and mace. And because a dum handi is cooked in layers (lighter saffron rice on top, marinated meat and richer masala settling towards the bottom), the same handi can serve mild, medium or slightly hot plates depending on where the server scoops from. Serving dum biryani well is an art in itself: a lighter spoon from the top for guests who prefer mild, a deeper one from the base for those who want it richer — all from one pot.
- How much biryani do I order for my guest count?
- Count on 1 kg of biryani for every two people — about 500 g a head. So a 2 kg handi serves 4, 4 kg serves 8, 6 kg serves 12 and 8 kg serves 16. Bigger gatherings combine handis: around 20 kg for a birthday of forty, 200 kg for a wedding. Tell us the headcount and we size it for you.
- Do you cook in ghee or oil?
- Pure ghee, only. No palm oil, no refined oil, no blends — every handi, every size. It costs more, and it is the reason the biryani tastes the way it does: the aroma, the rice that stays separate, a richness that does not sit heavy. Our head chef Khalid Neyazi will not cook it any other way.
- Do you issue a GST invoice for corporate orders?
- Yes. We invoice with GSTIN 07ABHFB0763H1ZK for company orders — team lunches, office parties, offsite catering, board-meeting drops. Bank transfer / company account payment is welcome. Send the WhatsApp note with your billing entity name and GST, and the invoice comes back the same day.
We grow the slow way — one biryani-eater at a time.
