This is hands down the best zabhiha halal food in the Bay Area. We absolutely love their Chennai-style chicken biryani and chicken tikka masala. The service was warm and friendly, and their chai was also delicious. Highly recommend! Muslim Razi2024-12-14Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were a group of 6, and the service and seating were fantastic. The naan was good quality, and the seafood curry was tasty. The spice level was a little on the milder side but you can request more spicy. We had gulab jamun for dessert and it was warm, fresh, and tasted superbly.Google rating score: 4.1 of 5, based on 799 reviews
