Hyd Mahal @ Church st.

Hyd Mahal located on Church street serves Hyderabadi and North indian food. It is located alongside the RR restaurant. (its part of the famous RR Andhra restarunt, i hope)

The food is quite tasty, but the best thing about this place is their biryani. Though its not the perfect Hyderabadi biriyani, i'll say its the closest to the Original Nawabi Biriyanis served in Hyderabad. A perfect blend of spices and flavor, i wud say its little more spicy, but still it adds to the taste. The ambience is good, dim lighted, suitable for date too..

But the service is not in par with ambiance and the taste, they misses a dish each in all the three courses we ordered.

we went for the regular murg shorbha (chicken soup) and kali mirchi murg for starters. I just loved the shorba, other than all those soups served in most of the eateries as clear soup, sweetcorn.. $%%^@!$, this is no nonsense soup, just a tasty spicy chicken soup . (It just reminded me the taste of soups we get in rural places)

We ordered the mutton biryani, ymm.. it was damn good..  with clear mix of spices perfectly cooked cubes of lamb.. slurrp... it was really really gud.. other than those biriyanis served in nagarjuna's or nandhini's.. again i'll say.. it was close to the perfect. :)

We had a taste of  Boneless chicken/Nawabi Murgh Roti/Lassi .. nothing to blame.. i wud say. A good decent restaurant, in all ways [taste, ambiance, economy].

If you just enter in the church street from brigade, just as soon as u get in to the street u'll see on the right hand side, HydMahal, sitting alongside the other well knwon local restaurant Andhra RR.

good service and nice ambience
