I'm convinced that whoever develops this chain's recipes has desensitized taste buds. What they are selling does not match the typical California palette (thinking spicy versus mild local Mexican or Mediterranean food). I've spent my whole life eating local food, and even the "mild" chicken biryani is about medium spicy. Be careful with this if your taste buds are not desensitized, and you don't need a truckload of spices and raw onions to taste anything. That said, the biryani is flavorful, and the food didn't make me sick, so I'm giving them 4 stars. They also have a pretty good score on Santa Clara County Dine Out https://eservices.sccgov.org/FacilityInspection/Home/ShowDetail/PR0301588 so that's good. This place seems to be well-managed. read more

We took our friends who were visiting us to Paradise on Sunday afternoon for lunch. We were all starving as went right after church. Got good seating and very greeted well and food came in super fresh and hot too. We ordered gobi Manchurian & chicken tikka for starters and than veg kadhai and chicken labadar for entree with 5 garlic naan and than last but not the least veg biryani, chicken biryani and mutton biryani. When we left we still had leftovers which we packed and took. Also left with hearts full and good memories. Their ambience is good too with some great Indian music in the background. read more

The food is good overall, but I wouldn't recommend the gulab jamun with rabri--it doesn't quite live up to the name. read more

Paradise Biryani Pointe - Disappointing to see this ... I ordered gulab jamun with rabri and I got this ... - Indian Near Me - Milpitas, California

The best lunch special in town! Yummy choices of curries along with naan, dal and rice at $12-13 is really hard to beat. I am glad they have finally started lunch specials again after not serving them since Covid. Hands down the best naan and best vegetable biryani in Bay Area. I am a regular here and can 100% recommend the food here. You usually can't go wrong with paneer tikka masala or kadhai paneer. Their egg curry and malai kofta is good too. My usual order is lunch special with paneer tikka masala and vegetable biryani. I always leave with leftovers for next meal. read more

I first found this place while doing a DoorDash pickup, and the smell of spices hit me the second I walked in it was amazing. I've only had Indian food once before and never craved it again until that night! We finally came back to try it, and wow the chicken lollipop was a 10/10, especially with that light, citrusy green chutney. The garlic naan was soft, airy, and perfectly toasted. I even tried the goat dum biryani for the first time & it was super flavorful! I just wish they had a no-spice option, but my fiancé loved the heat. On top of the food being amazing, the customer service was on point. Our server kept checking in, refilling our waters, and making sure we had everything we needed. It honestly felt like I was a guest in someone's home instead of just another customer which is a comforting feeling. The restaurant itself was really clean and peaceful inside, with big comfy booths and plenty of space between tables, so it didn't feel crowded at all. The price was very affordable for everything we ordered. Because I couldn't get a true no-spice option for my meal, I'd give this place a 4/5 for my personal preference but everything else about this restaurant is a solid 5/5. The food, the service, and the atmosphere were all amazing. Definitely a spot we'll keep coming back to read more

Their food is tasty and most of all consistent over the years. Hyderabadi style biriyani is the best. Not sure about onsite service as I mostly do takeout. read more

Awesome customer service from this restaurant! I ordered for pickup at 9pm on Sunday. Hit delays unfortunately and got delayed. I called the restaurant to tell them I will reach after 10pm. But they close at 10pm. I managed to reach at 10.10pm and (I wish I remember the name) and one of the guys was waiting outside to hand off the package as the restaurant was closed! Thanks and appreciate the extra effort! Food wise - Biriyani is great but is spicy! read more

Today, I treated myself with Chicken Dum Biryani and Lime Soda. It was worth a try. Dine-in experience was pleasant unless you don't like trendy Bollywood music that can take you back to your homeland. . read more

I used to be a regular here, but today it was disaster. Ordered Goat biriyani - the meat was so dry and looked like at least 10 days old. It's so horrible to eat. This branch is spoiling the brand name of Paradise Biryani. Stay away! read more

The chicken dum biryani is delicious. However, it's not the same as before. I wish they added some fried onions on top. The flavor profile is different and not spicier more of a masala taste than the true spicy biryani flavor. The service was great. They took the order in and it was accurate in terms of how long it will take. I did have the chicken dum biryani to go, but the restaurant does have tons of indoor seating. read more

Yumm vegetarian and paneer biryani. The family pack easily served 4-5 ppl in my family . Yeh go I Manchurian and paneer 65 were great . I didn't like the chilli garlic noodles a lot though . They were nice but not the best . The double ka meetha was nice . read more

We've always heard about the food at Paradise from friends (obviously its the Biryani). We were close to this location and we ordered a mix of biryanis. We were definitely surprised at the quantity and quality. The veg biryani was good and the meat eating side of the family liked the meat. We did go back to their Santa Clara location and ordered a new set and liked it. They surely have a consistent quality. read more

Ordered family pack paneer dum biryani, cut mirchi, noodles. Cut mirchi, noodles are good and tasty. But though the restaurant's name has Biryani in it, they did complete injustice to the paneer dum biryani. Very less paneer for a family pack, not so tasty base, very dry and no flavor at all to the biryani. Please focus on serving excellent biryani, as that's where you guys started. I don't think it's hard either. We don't want to eat white rice with some dry base of biryani. read more

Note: Spice levels are high, if you're spicy tolerance is low be prepared. Chicken Biriyani: One of the best biriyani in the area, the chicken has a lot of flavor that goes well with the rice. This dish can be enjoyed dine in and takeout, so there's options to enjoy the dish. There isn't much of a taste difference between bone-in and boneless and highly recommend boneless for the convenience factor. Butter Chicken: The taste is delicious. The dish is well seasoned and very savory. It's best enjoyed with butter naan so don't forget to order that. Egg Curry: Another great dish, super spicy and well flavored. One of my personal favorite dishes because of how good it is. Gongura Chicken: A more unique dish, gongura has a more sour taste that's hard to describe. The dish hits differently than the others and is a great addition to the meal. Definitely worth a try if you haven't tried a dish with gongura before. read more

One of my favorite biryani spots in the bay for veg dum biryani. Pretty good spice level and really enjoyed the fried onions on top. Good food at a decent price point. Decent service and ambiance as well. read more

Amazing biryani, great price!! We tried the vegetarian biryani (I know!) and it was fantastic. I wasn't expecting so much flavor since there were only vegetables, but it might be one of the best biryanis I have had. The rice was well cooked and the masala was absolutely spot on. I couldn't even wait to hear up the take out because the biryani smelled too good. The paneer kadhai was also delicious and spicy. The paneer was soft and the kadhai masala was also well done. The restaurant was a little empty, but the take out is very quick and definitely popular! A new favorite! read more

Extremely Disappointing Experience at Paradise Biryani. I ordered it TOGO. I wish there was an option to give zero stars. As a hardcore biryani lover, I was really looking forward to trying the Vijayawada Boneless Chicken Biryani at Paradise. Sadly, visiting on a Thursday was a huge mistake. The biryani was completely bland and tasted like it had been microwaved from some leftover batch made weeks ago. For ~17$ I expected something worthy. Instead, I got an unappetizing plate of food with excessive artificial coloring that ruined the whole experience. Honestly, biryani is not just a dish; it's an emotion, and what I received was a complete insult to it. If you're planning to visit, I'd strongly recommend avoiding this place on weekdays. Management really needs to respect biryani lovers and fix these issues to save their reputation. read more

They have ample parking in the square where they are and good indoor dining space too!! We ordered $30 chicken biryani party pack which seems like 2-2.5 plates of biryani in one big box - perfect for sharing when u have guests over :) They had an online offer going on when u order online to get free appetizer when u order the biryani party pack- we got chicken 65 as the appetizer and it was yummy :) Chicken biryani - 4/5 Chicken 65- 5/5 #definitelyrecommended read more

Personally, after trying so many biryani places. Paradise Biryani @ Milpitas location is the one we keep coming back to. We usually go for the Dum biryani (family pack combo) + Chicken 65/Gobi Manchurian. This usually is like 2.5 meal, so not a bad deal. Their service for pickup is usually ~20 mins, which isn't bad. We prefer eating here on a weekday night as we sometimes we have noticed the taste and freshness is a miss on the weekends (esp Friday/Sat dinner) read more

Ragdi Gulab Jamun tasted so bad that it was inedible(watered down extremely sweet milk with bad texture is how I would describe it). See the pictures in other reviews. Also ordered a Mild biryani that was too spicy and in my opinion hardly edible. This is when my spice tolerance is average, I couldn't eat their mild biryani. read more

Ordered a rabdi gulab jamun today for celebrating an occasion. Only to see it melt down like the syrup used in making the dessert (picture attached). What's more appalling is the attitude in receiving a feedback where the desk person just tossed it into a trash saying that's how rabdi is supposed to be. Please update the descriptions and images to accurately reflect the dish, so you don't waste people's time. Used to be a good restaurant and service. Gave an extra star only because I got my money back. read more

They seem to force unwritten rules. Got to the place at 11:15 pm asked for family pack and guy told it's only until 10:00 pm I go there every other week and order around 11. The front desk people know me every well I spend around $250 a month at this place but not anymore. Rude attitude Customer service is getting bad day by day . This Was my last timehere if the guys will read the review they would know who I am. You lost a customer and I am vocal so hope people read this . read more

Tried veg paneer dum biryani. It was good but a bit more on the spicy side. I usually like spicy food but it was beyond my tolerance. Egg curry was good but 16 oz or 1 order will only have 2 eggs. So order accordingly. read more

Be aware if you are a strict vegetarian (like me) or and ordering from this restaurant. I ordered Veg Biryani combo which comes Veg Manchurian.

Usually our go-to for biryani and curries because they've been pretty good and consistent. However, today we were served undercooked chicken and sent it back. Although we didn't get charged for it, this shouldn't have happened in the first place. Quite disappointed that this wasn't caught in the kitchen and the diligence before serving food is lacking in an establishment that serves so many people. read more

Excellent Goat Biryani! I wish pricing was little lower though. Best biryani of all places. read more

We always order the Vijayawada boneless chicken biryani from here. It comes with half an egg , salan and raita . The masala has been the same fragrant one . We keep coming back for the cozy feels of the masala and the tender pieces of chicken. read more

Have been to their Sunnyvale location a lot of times so it was time to visit their new Milpitas location. Have been to this place only twice as it is located little further from the main street, where there are lot of shops. Ordered just biryani and found it ok. It should be little more spicy but we didn't find it that spicy. But we were hungry so just ate it. Biryani comes with Salan and raita. Both were good. It was really crowded the first time and not so crowded the next time. Best thing about this place is they are open till late on Friday and Saturday night so you can go there for mid-night food or late dinner. Bathrooms are clean. Staff is friendly. They play nice music in the background. Atmosphere is generally lively. read more
