" In my opinion, Pista House is worth it for the biryani alone! I loved the spice and flavor, it was one of the best I’ve had in the area. The only downside was that the dessert selection was limited. I could have spent more time enjoying my meal, but the staff was quick and attentive. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have to say, the Hyderabadi dum biryani was absolutely delectable! The seasoning and flavor profile were brilliant, truly an authentic experience. There was slight delay in service, but the staff was friendly. Would recommend to friends and I am excited to return for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" The food here brings back memories of Hyderabad! True flavors that resonate with authenticity. Thanks to the whole team for their hard work. Although they were busy, the service remained acceptable. I will be coming back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" Each dish I tried tasted freshly made, especially the biryani! The price to portion ratio is fair. The ambiance feels casual yet lively, which adds a nice touch. I would definitely return anytime I have a craving for authentic Indian dining. Anyone who loves biryani must try this restaurant! " (*Curated Review*)

" Pista House is a mix of good food and chaotic service. The biryani is worth the visit alone! Flavors brought me back home. However, the seating could be more comfortable, and the staff seemed overwhelmed with the rush. A bit more attention to details could enhance the experience massively. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Pista House again for the umpteenth time! Their goat biryani continues to impress! Rich flavors and the spiciness is perfect. The staff seems to be friendly but a bit overwhelmed at times with the crowd. The cleanliness could use some work, especially the restroom, which was below expectations. That said, I keep coming back for the food alone! " (*Curated Review*)

" I went for a takeout order and was so pleased with the authenticity of the Haleem! It brought me back to my time in Hyderabad. The service was polite and quick too. If they continue to maintain these standards, I see a long-term future for them. The only recommendation I have is they need to provide more options for vegetarians. " (*Curated Review*)
