" The experience at Dhamaka was great! Their Chicken Biryani is a unique twist of flavors; I really enjoyed it. The service staff were amazing, always smiling and eager to assist. We felt at home! The atmosphere is inviting, which makes it suitable for both casual and formal dining. Highly recommend to anyone who loves authentic biryani! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had an enjoyable evening at Dhamaka! Their Mutton Marag was rich and flavorful, truly one of the highlights of my meal. The staff were very attentive, which made the experience even better. I will definitely be coming back to try other popular items on the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" The food here is respectable, with decent portions and a good variety on the menu. However, my Chicken Biryani could have been better seasoned. The service was cordial, which made up for the couple of setbacks with the food. I might return to give it another shot. " (*Curated Review*)

" I enjoyed the food at Dhamaka but found it to be a bit standard compared to some other Indian places. The service was friendly and prompt, but I guess I was expecting something extraordinary. The atmosphere is also nice for a casual night out. I might explore their menu more before making a definite verdict. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had dinner at Dhamaka and the experience was mixed. While the service was friendly, my meal was cold when it arrived. I ordered a vegetarian biryani, which had an interesting flavor profile, but it just seemed a little bland. The ambiance was warm, making it a cozy dining spot. I may give it another try considering how lovely the staff were, but I'm not in a rush to return. " (*Curated Review*)

" Delighted by my experience at Dhamaka! I took my parents there for a family dinner, and it was a hit. Everyone enjoyed the variety: the mutton curry was tender and flavorful, while the lemon rice was a refreshing side. The service was friendly, and they even made custom spice adjustments to suit our tastes. The price was reasonable for the quality of food we received. We will certainly return! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a fabulous dining experience at Dhamaka! The flavors of each dish were vibrant and true to Indian cuisine. The stuffed parathas were delightful, while the chicken Korma had a rich, creamy gravy that made you want to keep eating. Service was very friendly; they genuinely cared about our experience. I’ll certainly be back to explore more of the menu! " (*Curated Review*)
