When we think of pista house we think of haleem. But the branch in kondapur has got much more to offer. This is a franchise taken over by a local ang has evrything coming from the main unit.

This now is a casual dine, multi cuisine restaurant. It serves some lipsmacking kebabs , curries and biryani.

Apart from this Pista House introduces itself as a progressive & vibrant bakery & sweet house that offers an excellent collection of the Choicest bakeries, Sweets and Haleem.

Today its a huge brand with branches in the U.S. , bangalore , vijaywada etc. soon planning food courts in Dubai, Malaysia, Saudi Arabia & Singapore.

So firstly let’s get this right, this is not just any other place that is only known for haleem and biryani. But trust me this is a brilliant place for some lip smacking food.
It’s my 4th time to the place but my go to was only biryani. That day was just not the same.

FOOD:

We started of with some mutton bone soup. Amazing on flavour , but had a little too much salt for my liking.

Then came in the kebabs, brilliant ones. Being fair and Frank I just like the chicken based kebabs. The mutton ones were okayish but I’m not a mutton kebab person unless it’s a minced version. The pahadi was the best of the lot, followed by the chicken majestic.
The mutton Mongolian was hard for me and into a Chinese version mutton isn’t a great choice for me.

For the mains , we had adraki murg, murgh muglai (white based gravy)(I am confused if it’s muglai or nizami), palak gosht. Really loved the chicken muglai , rich and yum. The adraki chicken had prominent taste of ginger as the name suggests. Palak gosh still had a slight raw taste of spinach.

Then came the king. The biryani. Apt amount of masala, perfectly cooked mutton and the well cooked rice. Definetly a star.

The desserts I feel need some work and efforts to be put in. They were slightly oversweet.

We had Gajar ka halwa, rabdi, kala jamun and qubani ka meetha.

AMBIENCE, PRICING AND LOCATION:

You actually have a good place. It a fully air conditioned. It’s not a fully well done multi cuisine. But the food here definetly speaks.

Sometimes you might have stained table cloths which could be a problem.

It’s reasonably priced. With the location in mind the prices and the food go well with each other.
