Ghumaghumalu Briyani & Curries in Mandapeta

Good service , fresh food , nice variety. If you don’t want to cook and have a home cooked meal , stop by. Weekend breakfast buffet !

One of the worst food experiences we had. I dont even think what we ordered was biryani and it made us sick.

Ordered egg biryani.. too too spicy.. never got such spicy though ordered for double masala in other restaurants

None of the Indians restaurants in the Bay Area could bring the taste of authentic Hyderabadi biryani. I ordered this special chicken biryani today i.e 11/04 I have no idea what is so special in this. It looks like they added butter chicken curry on plain white rice. You can see from the image. Friday mood gone 😂 lol

Had Unlimited Non Veg Thali for dinner. Food was amazing. Chicken Starter, Chicken Curry, Goat, Veg Pulao and many other items. Service can be little better as there was waiting time.

Good food and taste. If they didnt put those extra potatoes in veg biryani, I should have rated 5 stars

Breakfast buffet: Everything is pretty average.

tried the weekend buffet, pretty good experience for $15. you get unlimited puri, dosa, idly, vada, upma, pongal, sweet, tea and coffee.

Superb food. Fish fry was so good and we ordered so much for our table of 14 that we may have finished the restaurants stock for the night.

Biryanis are spicy for me. But I can see that some people might like it.Starters tasted like microwaved cold food. Giving a poor review for this

Don’t order lamb keema biryani. If you order You will get half cooked and non boiled rice with some fresh onions and curry leaves.

Food is good and I am really impressed with their service, they are so quick and serve everything we ask. We went with group of 10 people and everyone was very happy. Their non veg Currys are spicy.

This is my favorite place for telugu food in the bay area! The quality of the food is top notch. I went here assuming this would be yet another ulavacharu like restaurant with abysmal quality of food. Happy to report that these people care about quality.The mirchi bajji and egg bajji will prove it to you. These fried delicacies were so light and didnt taste of bad oil! The egg bajji is a must try, never had anything like that.Ginger chutney and peanut chutney are ah so nice. The gutti vankaya didnt reach the taste pinnacle but i could taste the fresh, rich ingredients it was made from.This restaurant wont disappoint, your body will thank you and its a great place to introduce telugu food to your (spice lovingfriends!

We ordered punugulu it was okay. Then Mysore bonda which was not at all Mysore bonda. It was not at all good. The chapatis were good. But the palak paneer & Paneer masala were not fit for any stars. Then we ordered egg biryani which we virtually threw it. A disastrous outlet. We visited on 7th August 2022.

Stop saying your restaurant is open until 3PM on Sundays if you shoo away families who enter your dining at 2.25pm. Reason given: “Dining closed but you can take to-go”. Start being specific on Google and don’t make people visit your establishment to make’ em aware. Thanks but no thanks.

Centrally located in the Pruneyard, this restaurant offers Mexican Cuisine made with choice materials and great presentation.Plan ahead because Pruneyard is busy and parking may get difficult.

Authentic and very tasty. I am glad I visited this place in my brief trip to Bay Area.

Pretty tasty breakfast buffet

The weekend breakfast buffet is very good. We also like mysore bonda and egg plant masala here. The vijayawada chicken biryani used to be very good but lately it’s very spicy and unbearable to eat.

Food taste good if you dine in or eat it immediately after a take out.

We came to eat bonda and we order 3 plates of bonda.Literally after eating 2 bondas stomach was upset and bondas was deeply fried.Better don’t order at closing time and don’t serve these type of bondas@restaurant teamPlease don’t do this type of bondas @restaurant owner.

Horrible food, stale vada, highly salty Biryani, when called to complain, the concerned people’s uncalled rude behavior in addressing the issue was shocking, after charging somuch the quality is very bad. They need to learn being polite to the customers first.

What ever we tested it’s good but Very bad service 😞 we went for breakfast buffet on Saturday no items are available. Wonder why they take us in when they don’t have anything to serve very bad economics they charged 15 $ each. Our 20 mile drive to test good food has gone bad.

Pls dont provide advertising and close the store..we reached at 9AM but your hotel Closed. Google map showed open. I traveled 40 min in freeway

Tried their breakfast buffet. Peanut chutney was stale. Not at all fresh. Rest of the items were okay.

It was nice! Foods are really good. We are vegetarian so for us it is good. We’ll visit again. 👍🏻

Worst experience ever. If food doesn’t taste good it is still okay but quality is horrible and it is dangerous. Management should think twice to serve such food.

We had mirchi bajji and it was absolute delight!! Loved it !!

After a morning Mission Peak hike GumaGumalu was our spot to rest and devour their unlimited breakfast combo platter. Finding parking wasnt a tough ask as there were plenty to pick from though upon entering the restaurant it looked pretty pack for a morning brunch/breakfast.We were seated within no time and the host clearly knew that we were in for the combo platter :. It took a bit to get those platters out to us though it was well worth the wait. Dosa , poori, some upma, pongal, rava et al to sate your appetite and leave you craving for more.We did order a refill for a few of these items on the platter and kept going till we essentially couldnt take it anymore. The process of refill was a little slow and killed a bit of our appetite though given the volume of folks that were being served such things are bound to happen. I would still rate them a 5 on 5 given the food they serve was top notch and definitely worth making a stop for.Neat and kempt toilet area definitely adds to the rating as well along with the area inside the restaurant being generally clean.

I have tasted each and almost every dish, my personal favourite or I’d rather say FAVOURITES! are Stuffed Mirchi Bajji, special chicken biryani, Ragi Sankati and Goat Dum Biryani!! The rest of the items are great as well! The best Indian Restaurant I have had in the whole of America! Should definitely try it out!!! The staff is great as well.

Breakfast thali is available at this place on weekends from 8 to 11 am. Amazing chutneys and brilliant unlimited south indian tiffins. They have coffee and tea along with unlimited food. Puri Masala was amazing, dosas were brilliant. It gets crowded and busy after 10 btw and they dont usually do refills after 10.30 am.

Good food with reasonable price. Great service staff.Cleanliness level is 5star too.One issue only, plastic fork and spoon don’t do justice to enjoy food. Restaurant should have options for normal cutlery.Rest all excellent. 🙏

Was excited to try this new place. Most of the dishes we tried were flavorless. Egg masala had a good taste, but the eggs were super over cooked and while yolk was green from overcooking and did not taste good. Saag paneer was tasteless, tasted like grass. They also dont offer any tea. Not recommening.

Pathetic service! Dont waste your money. I placed an order for a Chicken Biriyani, but got a Lamb Biriyani instead , and when I called back to report it, I was asked to place ANOTHER order for the Chicken Biriyani! What a horrible customer service! They want me to place an additional order for a mistake they made! I immediately declined and ordered from another restaurant.

Vegetarian is better and non-veg dishes can be better, misses spices and taste

Had breakfast buffet . Superb taste . Freshly prepared and authentic Indian taste

Variety menu.. Appetizers were terrific. Some authentic central indian AP cuisine.. Entrees and paratha were not top notch, but good

To be very frank, this place is the reason my girlfriend is now my wife! My girlfriend at the time wanted to judge my cooking skills as this was very important thing to her! I knew I was a very bad cooker so I looked for some great Indian food places! Thank god this place came up! I knew this was the right place and ordered some dishes she loves like butter chicken and some goat biryani (her favorite). The service was amazing. When I arrived to the restaurant the food was ready for me. I told her that I was going out for some workout as my health wasnt strong at the time and I was looking too big. I worried if I was too big she wouldnt marry me. Anyways from that, I came home and super secretly unpacked it as if I made it. My engineering skills were on their A++ game that day. I only expect A+++ from my children however. Anyways..., I showed her the food with a magical reveal!! She loved the looks and loved the taste! Knowing how much she loved it, I proposed with my 20,000 dollar ring! Although it was a nice ring, she loved the food more and said yes!! I will be really honest with everyone who reads these reviews, this place is the reason I am with my wife today! I am a frequent customer and will never stop going! I encourage you guys to go as well!

Quality of food varies very widely for the same dish on different tastes. Some days it is amazing. And some days it is really not good. I wish it was more consistent.

Good service, good food, good variety. Update: I love their food and have the same reasons why I like their food (chicken Biryani!but their food is so hot I have to go somewhere else Have asked a few times but still too hot. It is so good I eat is anyway but hard to enjoy if everything is hot.

Absolutely delicious Hyderabadi Dum Biryani! Probably one of the best in the bay area. Did not have a chance to taste other dishes. Will go back again for biryani for sure.

Went here for dinner take out and ordered Hyderabadi Chicken Dum Biryani, Paneer Masala and Chapatis.We specifically mentioned while placing the order for the paneer dish that it be less spicy and the rotis be made from wheat. The dish turned out to be too spicy and the rotis - readymade ones made from maida. The rotis However, the saving grace was the Hyderabadi Chicken Dum Biryani. It had a nice flavour and also had a sprinkling of nutmeg. Very different from what we get in the Bay Area. Just for the biryani, I might come back.

Great place for dining. Staff are very courteous and they have contactless dining thats safe for both customers and the staff. Dishes are made to perfection and very delicious. Dont miss to try Mysore bonda and chutneys offered on the side.

Authentic Andhra native cusine and one if the very few places in the world that serve milet rice balls a.k.a ragi sankati with Spicy chicken / mutton / eggplant curry. This is usually not even available in most parts of India itself. Its a surprise to find it being made so well here. Food is great. But I am disappointed with the lack of plexiglass between tables. Seems like they dont care about the customers all that much and thats why a 2 star penalty is imposed.

Ordered punugulu, parthas and baby corn Manchuria . Spicy and tasty authentic andhra dishes . Best punugulu ever eaten in USA. Good and fast service . Must give a try .

Very nice selection of South IndianaIndian food. They have biryani (ulavacharu, Hyderabadi, Vijayawadaand lots of non vegetarian and vegetarian options. They dont serve naan but they have chapati and white rice. Overall, I liked this restaurant, bit I did not like the fact that they used paper plates and plastics spoons, forks, and knives. The decor (see pictureswas also very creative and nice. 5 stars, no major problems for me except for cutlery.

Service- 5 startI have never seen such a fast serviceTaste - 1 startDisappointed with Vijayawada Biryani panner and chicken

I ordered special chicken biryani here (the person who works there said it is the best biryani). I was so excited as its been a while since I ate biryani and i was very very disappointed after eating it. All i got was white rice with chicken on top. Its very bland. I dont want spicy. And chicken tasted bad. But i want flavorful which it isnt. If thats their best, I dont want to taste any other.

Their special chicken biryani is very bad. If you look at the picture the haldi in the gravy is raw and overall it tastes bad.

Wonderful food with an extremely nice unique variety. We have not experienced the dine-in, but the to-go food was steaming hot and delicious. It was a bit spicier than I personally would like, but the flavors were perfect. I look forward to a possible dine-in experience in the future. Order did take longer than quoted, but it was busy and thats a good sign.
