Deccan House in Reading

Very good food, chilly chicken was amazing, will recommend.

Along with food , Kalyan anna and Sakshi hospitality is wonderul

The service is very good by Kalyan and I tried four times, the taste is very good.

They provide authentic biriyani’s. We have had food from here couple of times and it was always a pleasant experience. Must try!

The staff is amazing the food is wonderful the atmosphere is awesome definitely recommend it!

a brilliant mix of all tastes of india, but a showstopper when it comes to biryani.

Briyani tastes good. Disappointed with chicken fried rice and chicken pakora.

Great food and great services. The mutton dum biryani and chicken pakora both have rich flavours. The waitress was considerate in telling me how to eat the biryani.

Food is very good and staff are very friendly.

I visited 3 times to Deccan restaurant because 2 times my son and me likes food. So 3rd visited on Sunday but we totally disappointed on Sunday. We ordered non veg talli first time and I got smell from chicken and my son also didn’t eat food. I requesting to Deccan manager we are paying £15 for talli so we should give proper quantity of food and fresh . We should give always fresh food because we are coming with our kids. Staff was good very helpful. Chicken Manchurian and chicken biryani was good . But talli was disappointed 3rd time. So giving 3 stars . heath is important so please so please cook fresh chicken . I hope you understand.,thank you.

Amazing biryani (the best I have had in the UK)

A hidden gem in Reading. Beautiful South Indian dishes, the chef clearly knows what they are doing, everything was cooked perfectly and full of flavour. Lovely attentive, genuine, kind service. A real gem.

Very tasty food and our favourite is Mysore bonda We enjoy this place as a family here

Poori and mutton curry must try.

Food served by sakshi , hospitality brilliant .

We went on 18th October. Place was nicely busy, but service was fast and attentive. Waitress very helpful in explaining the menu. Food was am-az-ing! Plenty of choice up and down the spice range, amazing melt in the mouth dosa's, lovely chilli paneer, superb dahl and chicken curry. We could go on.....Highly reccomended.

Veg biryani is very good is taste and very authentic. Prices are very reasonable. Happy to come again.

Well I was picking up too good to go package here (basically leftover food for the day) and it tastes delightful and quite an amount, can imagine the rest of menu being absolutely delectable

Authentic Hyderabadi food with decent ambience, reasonable prices and welcoming service by Sakshi

Love the chicken dum biryani. Worth a try

Amazing find and very flavorful

Food was nice ambience was nice

Special thanks to Sakai for such a great dine experience

Good place with taste good food

We had lunch at Deccan House yesterday afternoon following a recommendation on Edible Reading. We weren't in any way disappointed - the waitress was so friendly - really helpful in advising us as to what dishes we might want to order. They were also able to tailor the spiciness of the dishes to our tastes. I especially recommend the chilli chicken, gobi manchuria and the biryani. Really good value too. We will definitely be back

So happy to have found this place. Amazing food and flavours which tastes fresh and homemade. Highly recommend the pav bhaji, chole bhature and paneer butter masala. The bread that came with the chole bhature was especially good. Loved that it came out in courses so we could make the most of each dish. Friendly, helpful staff. And the great prices just topped it off. We will be back!

Very good customer service and the food was amazing. Would definitely recommend!

We booked a lunch reservation for 12:15 PM through the restaurant’s website, and the booking was accepted. After a 30-minute walk to the restaurant, we were informed by a woman at the reception that they only serve thali from 1 PM due to a large catering event for 150 people. She suggested we return at 1 or 1:30 PM. Understanding their situation, we roamed around the area and returned at 1 PM. This time, a kind man received us. We ordered chicken biryani, a non-veg thali, and a starter 65. The starter was fantastic, and the biryani was good too. However, the newly launched thali was average; the rice was cold, and the curries were not warm. The mutton curry and prawn were nice, but the rasam was missing and replaced with sambar. Overall, the thali was below average. Additionally, the papad had a hair in it. When I informed the lady, she laughed and brought a new one, saying it wasn’t homemade. I expected a small apology, but the girl was not very welcoming. Despite this, I wouldn’t try the thali again, but the starter was the best part of the meal.

Absolute best biriyani in Reading . Highly recommend.

The food was amazing. We have ordered two mutton biriyani, one chicken lollypop and one chicken pakora. All the items tasted so good with good quantity and quality. Mutton cooked so soft and really nice. Highly recommended. Parking is still hassle but can be sorted on the streets nearby or can check with restaurant to find more info.

We came couple of times to this restaurant from Basingstoke. Both the times we had wonderful experience. First time we have veg meal and 2nd time had biryani.

Amazing food, one of the only Indian restaurants where I can say the food is as good as mums.

It's a wonderful place to visit, and the food was incredibly delicious. The staff is very welcoming, especially Sakshi, and her service was exceptional. I highly recommend this place.

Very good good superb service Love biriyani

I liked the bonda as it was served with a delicious chutney

The service was very fast , it was very clean and the food was great.

I loved the chili panneer and veg noodles

Fanstsic place, pull the Mrs in, great game in front of house money saved. Staff are spectacularlar a high shout out to hina. The man of the house great personality

One of the best desi food places.

The Food is Very Good and Delicious.

Amazing food. Honestly the best biryani in the area. Super polite staff.

Had Good Chicken Biryani....loved it....Must recommend for who loves Dum Biriyani and Mysore Bonda...

Thought of trying and really surprised by delicious food. We tried chicken dum biryani and dal Tarka. Would highly recommend and will definitely visit again IA.

Overall experience was very good. Biryani seemed authentic. Paneer tikka masala curry could have been better.

We had an amazing experience at Deccan House, always warmly welcomed by the friendly staff and the service was incredibly fast, serving delicious starters and Biryani’s. Biryani was almost same as the one we had in hyderabad. Visited few times and the quality is consistent every time .

The service here was very excellent 👌, delicious food and great service, brilliant atmosphere and a warm, cozy feel. There was a waiter called Pritam he was very nice and welcoming, and he took care of our food for us and was very helpful.

We visited Deccan House today for lunch and really loved the food. The service by Saksi was excellent, she was very friendly. Food was cooked in a healthy way, as I don't prefer too much oily food. I would recommend to try out Mysore bonda and Mutton biryani.

Me and my family visited Deccan House today for lunch and really loved the food. The food was very tasty. We loved the Chicken 65 and chicken lollipop. I would recommend to try out Mysore bonda and Mutton biryani too. Mutton was very soft as requested by us. Mysore bonda is my new favourite. I Would highly recommend visiting.

Must visit especially for non-veg dishes 👍

Very awesome and tasty food i enjoy a lot

Authentic Hyderabadi dum biryani I ate so far in the UK

Lovely vibe and foods were yummmm❤️❤️

Food was amazing. Plus the service is really nice. The one who was serving was extremely accomodating and polite. Recommended

Today afternoon, we had the opportunity to be the first to try the new Andhra Meals at Deccan house, and we are happy to report that we are still alive and kicking! The meal offered a delightful mix of flavours and textures, creating a memorable dining experience. The Andhra Meals plate came with an impressive variety of items: a hot (crispy small Vada), a sweet (delectable Payasam), rich Chicken and Mutton curries, flavourful Prawn fry, tangy Rasam, and refreshing curd. The star items for us were undoubtedly the Mutton curry and the Prawn fry. The Mutton was tender and bursting with spices, while the Prawn fry had the perfect crunch and a delightful seasoning that left us wanting more. The Chicken curry, while tasty, could have benefited from a bit more spice—though this might just be my personal preference for a hotter kick. One notable missing item from the meal was Pappu (Daal). Whether you're indulging in a non-veg or veg meal. Including Pappu would certainly elevate the authenticity and completeness of the Andhra Meals. A special mention goes to Sakshi, who looked after us throughout our visit. Her attentive and friendly service made our dining experience even more enjoyable

Excellent quality and taste biryani.

This place serves the authentic Hyderabadi biryani and you can just enjoy the food here.....

Food is delicious, ambience is great. Staff was very welcoming.

amazing food, armosphere and customer service😍🥰👌

place was full of nice vibes and beautiful paintings, design and lighting perfect for photos😁 Food was amazing and finger licking good…. This one waitress called sakshi was so sweet and funny she deserves a shout out😊

Had chicken biryani which tastes good

The best Hyderabadi food I have ever eaten. Most authentic flavours. Reminded me of home for real. Definitely should try out. The service was really amazing too

Original taste of Hyderabad, Loved the Service!

We enjoyed Hyderabad dum biryani and chicken 65. It was really delicious!

Food is great, need more items, my recommendation is chicken65 biryani, we manually made it but looking forward to have it as a menu item❤️

Mutton biryani is amazing and the service is very friendly.

We ordered Mysore Bonda and egg noodles. Authentic Andhra taste. Must try.

Wow!The food was amazing!The waiters were also nice and sweet.this place definitely deserves a 5star review ,this place is the best Indian I have been all my life! If you want to try this amazing place out, then I recommend trying the chicken lollipops, poori and dosa.I also recommend mixing all of the curries together. Really try this place out it is fantastic!

Nice Gobi65 Hyderbadhi style! Veg biryani not that great but still nice, will visit again to try Mysore bonda and breakfast Buffet, thank you.

First time visited for breakfast buffet with family. Food, service and hygiene are top class! Had great experience and will come back again!

Absolutely delightful experience! The rich, authentic flavors of the dishes transported us straight to India. The service was warm and attentive, making us feel right at home. Highly recommend for a true taste of Indian cuisine!

The taste is really good, you will get the original taste of indian food(especially biryanis)

Awesome place Taste just like Hyderabad biryani Street style noodles

I really liked the place.....the food is good. Chutneys are also amazing...Sakshi also was very good in welcoming and communicating to the customers.

Tried Chicken Dum Biryani and as good as authentic Hyderabad biryani.

The food was really really good with great portions !

I am a regular customer and love their food - biryani, mutton curry and mutation biryani - all are amazing . The staff is very sweet and kind too!

Very good service and amazing food. Do recommend their chicken dum biryani.

Authentic Hyderabadi Biryani. Really enjoyed the Chicken Dum Biryani. Must visit place if you are looking for Hyderabad Dum Biryani

amazing food nd great place for indian food

Chicken biriyani is actually good and not that pricey. The chicken pokoda starter was dry we tried adding lemon but did not work. There was no sauce provided as well if you care about one. And the main reason for star on food is because we were given Pesaratu (Probably left out from the morning breakfast buffet on a weekend) when we actually ordered Masala Dosa which is ideally supposed to be made from Rice batter. Obviously there are people who will recognise and not prefer such swaps when a specific order was placed. It was a waste of money as we were not able to consume that. It looked more like a mix of different batters. Disappointed as there was no need to take the order if it cannot be fulfilled

All the food was excellent...will definitely come back again

Service is very good but the food is worse i went with my family nxt day i got a very bad stomach problem i checked with my friends late even they had the same we billed around £180 we order most of the dishes in the menu but other then chilli chicken rest all are so bad …

Good taste . And good service ,could definitely visit again.

Very nice authentic Indian foods.

Very kind staff and customer service..my go to favourites are cut mirchi n chicken dim biryani

We enjoyed biryani and starters!! Yummy!

Awesome taste like in Hyderabad

Pav Bhaji is a must try. Loved it

Amazing hyderabadi food with decent prices.

Excellent Service and excellent food… we all enjoyed so much!!

Amazing food, ambience and reasonable prices as well.. bonda is a must have….

Very tasty food must try bonda and cut mirchi. Sakshi was very nice and patient with all of your questions. Must try place

Food is yummy!! Sakshi was very good I suggesting good menu

This place is amazing. I ordered veg dishes, tastes homly with no over masala s and spiced. Must try, sambhar vadai, gobi Manchurian,mysore masala doasai, benne dosai

It’s a fantastic spot for authentic and mouth-watering Indian cuisine. The food is aromatic, and absolutely delightful. The decor is beautifully done, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere. The staff are friendly, welcoming, and go out of their way to ensure you have a great dining experience. Highly recommended!

Deccan house is the best if you look for authentic food. We tried many dishes. All are yummilicious and our favourites are Mysore Bonda and cut mirchi. Even the chutneys are so delicious.Whenever possible we will be here for weekend breakfast buffets.Also they maintain good ambience and good service

Food was really bad this time. Earlier i have been to the restaraunt and had few chicken starters which was really good. This time ordered chicken manchurian. The taste was good but i feel the chicken was not fresh at all. Also ordered poori masala which is a dish which will be basically tasty in all places. Here in thia restaurant this time, the masala was really very tangy unable to eat.

Food is really authentic and taste is good
