" What a lovely place! Charminar is the perfect spot for authentic Indian cuisine. The flavors were spot on, especially in the Chicken Korma and Palak Paneer. The service was attentive but relaxed, contributing to the overall laid-back atmosphere. I also appreciated the cleanliness of the restaurant. Definitely looking forward to returning to try more dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" Decided to check out Charminar after hearing good things from friends, and I was not disappointed! The Butter Chicken had just the right amount of spice and creaminess that pairs beautifully with the Naan. The mango lassi was refreshing too. The only downside was the wait time for a table, but the wait was worth it. Overall, the experience was enjoyable, and I would surely come back. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the chance to try Charminar recently. The food was decent, but I found the flavors lacking compared to what I envisioned. The ambiance felt nice, with traditional decor, but the service was a bit slow for a less crowded time. I had the Chicken Biryani, which was tasty but could have been a bit more fragrant. Overall, a nice place, but I expected more from the food quality. " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow, what a culinary gem! Charminar served one of the best Indian meals I've had in a long time. Each dish exuded authentic flavors, and the portions were quite large for the price. I particularly loved the Chicken Dum Biryani — it was rich and satisfying. The service was outstanding; our waiter went above and beyond to ensure we were taken care of. The ambiance was festive yet relaxed, making it the perfect spot for a dinner with friends. I highly recommend checking this place out! " (*Curated Review*)

" This was my first time trying Charminar, and I must say I was delighted! The Chicken Biryani was authentic with robust flavors, paired wonderfully with a Mango Lassi. The ambiance is festive yet comfortable, making it great for families. My only complaint was about the service being slightly slow during peak hours, but the friendly staff made up for it. I will definitely be coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a superb experience at Charminar. The Goat Biryani packed a fair amount of flavor and was both filling and satisfying. The service was great, with staff who were attentive without being overbearing. The ambiance felt like a small corner of India! I found the prices reasonable compared to the generous portions. I’ll be recommending this place to friends and family for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Charminar last Friday with high hopes based on recommendations, but regrettably, my experience wasn't ideal. The restaurant had a nice setup, but my Chicken Tikka was undercooked. The staff were courteous and responsive to my comments, which was commendable. They quickly replaced the dish, and the replacement was much better, showing they care about customer satisfaction. I'll give them another chance, hoping the food delivers next time. " (*Curated Review*)
