Bangladeshi restaurant ★4.0 (48)·$10–20

72-27 37th Ave, Flushing, NY 11372, USA

4.0
I ordered chicken biryani and goat biryani and did not like either of them.There was hardly any meat in either dish, it was 90% bones. There were too many small pieces of bone that I kept biting into and just too little meat. The 10% of it that was actually meat was very dry and not marinated. It was also cold.I wouldn’t even call either of them biryani because I didn’t taste any spices or herbs. They used so much cinnamon that the only flavor the rice had was cinnamon. Did not taste like biryani rice at all.The only reason it’s not a 1-star is because they provided napkins, utensils, and paper plates, which shows that they were at least taking into consideration that perhaps I needed them. I do appreciate when restaurants think about things like that. But, for food taste and quality, definitely 1-star unfortunately. - Nicole
