Haji Nanna Biryani in Tower Hamlets

We had Morog polao with chicken roast.They also served salads and gravy which was nice as complementary. I have read many reviews mentioned this as Biriyani.But they call it “ Sahi Morog polao “ they also have chicken biriyani but I never tried. Quantity wise ok but rice size is small which is normal in Bangladesh polao I have heard in other restaurants nearby . Service was quick as well and friendly.

Having read very mixed reviews I was rather dubious, but persuaded by family in a spirit of adventure. And what a nice surprise! Fuska starter brought 7 light fried potato & pea-stuffed samosa-like patties with a delicious tamarind sauce; lamb naga bhuna was excellent, very hot but not silly; the chicken satkora was a delicious revelation with a delightful citrus undertone, kachchi biryani (though missing its sauce though we didn’t notice at the time) was wonderfully aromatic and a huge portion. Parathas were hot and fresh as was the pillao rice. Polite and efficient service too. Admittedly the surroundings and furnishings are not the Savoy, but a delicious and generous meal for three hungry and critical people for under £50. - what’s not to like? 5 stars from me.

Awful meal- very rude waiters, put too much chillies even though we said to make it mild. Awful taste in their biryani. Try and avoid this place at any cost . There are plenty more nicer Bangladeshi restaurants around. Will avoid it in future, and will spread the word .

Food quality was so bad . Me and my friend got food poisoning. We told them that something wrong with the food but they didn’t listen. Very rude staff . Will not go again .

sorry but the worst biriyani I've ever had. o assume that they didn't have even eat biriyani in their life now they're selling biriyani

no frills. very traditional. super friendly staff. £8.45 for curry, 2 parotta, can of pop and bangladeshi tea. i'll have the signature biryani next time - can't wait

The best biriyani I have ever tried in the UK. We tried kacchi and mejbani beef and borhani. The mighty kacchi and mejbani was at their best, the borhani could be much better. Still I recommend this place.

La comida fue horrible. Qué vergüenza por su terrible cocina y el horrible sabor de nuestros platos de autor. Soy un bangladesí y cada vez que extraño comida de casa visito el área de Whitechapel para comer comida deshi. Pero esta tienda en particular acaba de decepcionar el nombre de Nanna biryani. ¿Por qué no pueden dar poco esfuerzo en los platos? Por qué tenían que pensar en hacer dinero. Bhuna khichuri era tan maloliente que tuve que tirarlo. Kachchi biryani no tenía sabor y el morog polao fue una gran decepción porque el pollo en el morog polao estaba duro y maloliente. Los compré como comida para llevar y vivo en East Sussex. Así que no pude regresar para arrojarles esta comida a la cara. Desearía poder darles de comer estos alimentos insípidos. Tal vez no se molestaron porque era comida para llevar. Tuve que pagar por esta horrible comida. Desearía haber comprado comida de un restaurante diferente. Por favor piense en nuestra cultura nuestra gente. No pasará mucho tiempo, la gente informará sobre su restaurante.

Have been to both the branches, prefer the whitechapel one, can’t go wrong here, best biriyani around.

if you want a touch of real Bangladeshi biriyani, go for this place. awesome food. I also had bhuna khichuri another time and that was good too.

Fueron muy groseros y poco acogedores, actitud grosera, sin recursos porque ni siquiera tenían suficientes platos para servirnos y nos dieron el plato cuando estábamos terminando. Tuvimos que pedir constantemente cosas que se les dieron a todos. Otras personas se quejaban y esperaron diez minutos para recibir el servicio.EL PEOR RESTAURANTE IVE SIDO.

We ware looking for a good food recommendation and someone local on the street recommended this place. Food was super aromatic and fresh. Service was fast and super friendly. Portions ware more than enough.When we are in London next time we surely will visit.

La mejor parte de este restaurante es su enfoque para los residentes de origen bangladesí en Londres. En su mayoría hacen entregas a domicilio y personas que quieren almorzar y cenar regularmente. Obviamente, al gusto no le gustará exactamente Bangladesh porque debe comprender que Bangladesh está a 8000 km de distancia. Ellos cocinan frescos después de la orden.Hasta ahora el mejor hallazgo en la UE y el Reino Unido.

La comida era horrible! ! Sin sabor, sin olor. Estoy realmente avergonzado de llamarlos cocina bangali que no tenía ningún sentido de banquete en absoluto. Soy de Dhaka (de la parte antigua), la capital de Bangladesh. Conozco muy bien mi comida según gusto. Perdí mi apetito mientras comía. Sin duda no voy a ordenar de ellos otra vez. Esta fue mi segunda orden. El primero era tan aceitoso, tuve que tirarlos. Piensan que si ponen mucho aceite, su sabor es tan real como el de la comida mogol. ¡El chef no sabe nada sobre la comida de Mughal! ! ! Así que, por favor, no trates de hacer el auténtico Kacchi de Bangladesh (que era como Bland como nada) y Borhani (era muy acuoso)Traté de comprobarme que estaba equivocado, así que pedí la segunda vez, pero no, estaba en lo cierto y nunca tuve comida de NANNA BIRIYANI. ! ! ! ! Deberían haberse avergonzado.Gracias

Comida increíble y muy fresca. Pedimos el kacchi biriyani, pollo pulao, pollo kebab, Faluda, Fushka. Simplemente increíble calidad y super servicio. Cualquiera que desee probar algunos auténticos bengalíes, especialmente el famoso Kacchi de Dhaka, debe venir aquí e intentarlo. Lugar pequeño pero muy limpio y excelente servicio. Volveré a intentarlo la próxima vez en Londres. Recomiendo encarecidamente el lugar si busca biriyani realmente bueno.

We ordered biryani which wasnt fresh. Salad onions were even dried nd not fresh at all.. you can see it nd tell.. taste of biryani was ok ok .. nothing extra special .. not typical ..

Esta fue nuestra segunda visita familiar para cenar y pensamos que el sabor será al menos igual o mejor que antes. Desafortunadamente, encontramos que su comida no era fresca (tanto arroz como ternera, cordero y pollo) que pedimos. El arroz ya estaba cocinado o cocinado a primera hora de la mañana, por lo que no estaba fresco y no lo encontraba sabroso. El cordero tiene que masticar duro. El pollo era igual que la carne, no hay mucho sabor! ! ¿No podríamos convencernos de llamarlo Biriyani y Tehari? ! ! Creo que la gerencia debería ocuparse del negocio, ya que perderán clientes como nosotros. No recomiendo realmente!

Visité algunas veces, más recientemente el sábado pasado. Tanto mi esposa como yo somos de Dhaka y echamos de menos los alimentos tradicionales de Old Dhakaiya.

Leí todas estas críticas y pensé que lo probaría mientras trabajaba muy cerca. He probado el peor biriyani en mi vida. Ni siquiera lo llamaría biriyani, ya que no estaba cerca de ningún tipo de biriyani. Tuve varios biriyani en la India, que incluye a Hederabadi Biriyani en Paradise Hederabad, Ayoadhi biriyani en Shiraj Kolkata, Arsalan también hace buenos biriyani, en Kochi tuve un agradable estilo biriyani de Andhra y en Gurgaon probé muy bien Lukhnow biriyani y Punjabi Biryani. El biriyani incluso con tantas versiones tiene una cosa en común que sabe a gusto. El biriyani que tuve en este restaurante casi me hizo llorar, ya que esperaba tener un buen biriyani, pero era una especie de puré de arroz con mal sabor a trozos de cordero que ni siquiera eran carne fresca. Aweful nunca yendo o recomendando a nadie.

I've been there to try for the first time Biryani rice, even though I pop up late they were really nice and let me seat. The place is pretty clean, the food is tasty but what impressed mostly to me was the generous portions! Suggested if you're in the area.

Had dinner here for the most part of our stay in London. Fulfilling meal reasonable priced. Tried all the different Briyani and it was all delicious. A nice hot meal on a cold London night.

Gran sabor, fresco, limpio, bien de comida, gran porción.

Very nice beef bhoona khichuri.👍 Good service and clean toilet. Definitely looking forward to revisit.

The Murg pilau was recommended to me by a friend. The wife ordered Rupchanda bhuna and plain rice. My son ordered beef tehari (biryani).

The biryani we had was quite nice but it had too much ghee in it. The meat was quite tender, the buhani was also nice.

Went with lot of feedback and was not disappointed. Lip smacking biriyani - Kachi ghost biriyani and beef rezala . Oh man this review itself is making me drool. Definitely worth a second visit and it will be very soon .

He oído acerca de que muchas veces y finalmente visitamos para el almuerzo. Pedimos la famosa y Biriyani rezalla Kachi. Fue simplemente excelente sabor y mucho sabor. Nunca he tenido un rezalla tan bueno. Incluso la simple ensalada de tomate cebolla era fresco. Buen servicio. Definitivamente volveré de nuevo y de nuevo y de nuevo! !

He escuchado comentarios favorables del lugar, así que finalmente decidí darle una oportunidad. Probé el Fuska para empezar, y este es, de lejos, el único lugar que encontré que sirven phuchkas como lo hacen en Kolkata. Sin duda, simplemente por el phuchkas solos. Luego tuve chitol ilisi shorisha y peti, el pescado era tan buena o mejor que Kasturi en Kolkata. Absolutamente increíble, y recién hecho. No sé por qué tantas críticas tienen al diablo con el lugar por su ambiente - el lugar no tienen que ser un excelente restaurante. No estaría pagando ese precio que pagas encontrar restaurantes. Pero bastante limpio y bien presentado, y la comida es tan buena como puede ser. El servicio era amable y agradable. Estoy definitivamente regresaremos, y pronto.

Vive en Londres y comer en restaurantes sylheti falsa biriyani fue doloroso. Lo siento de la im ninguno restaurantes londres sabe cómo hacer Biriyani o auténtica comida de Bangladesh hasta esta NANNA Mia abrió sus puertas. Insto a probar Sylhetis y aprender lo que realmente es (Bhaat biriyani biriyani moshlaay bhaajlei biriyani nUH). Buena comida y sabor auténtico.

My love and passion for Bangladeshi food takes me to Haji Nanna Biriyani restaurant, in East London. Haven't tried most items off their menu. But would definitely recommend their Biriyanis; almost as good as home. Kacchi Biriyani and Bhuna Kichuri are real good! Those who...

Wir waren neugierig und fanden ein gutes, preiswertes Essen, allerdings in einer eher einem Imbiss gleichenden Atmospähre (Einrichtung und Mobiliar)

This is a tiny restaurant that serves authentic Bangladeshi Kacchi Biriyani and Fuchka in addition to Naans Parathas Kebabs and Curries. The food is simple and tasty but the place needs a face lift for sure if it wants to attract more customers. Service was...

Alojarse en la zona quería una para llevar mi habitación de hotel que no era la verdadera mediocridad sirve en Brick Lane y encontramos Haji Nanna. Pedimos en la barra y el camarero muy amable lo que pedir. El biriyani Fuska era bueno, pero el...

Wow. They have transposed the food of Dhaka onto the face of London and I can imagine that this is only the start. The food is wonderful although the restaurant itself is very plain. Frequented by bangladeshi's, do not let that put you off from being bold enough to go in and order a kachi Biriyani. Or any of the other dishes for that matter.This truly is a gem and its hidden in plain sight. Go in and try it all and the only thing you'll find everywhere else that is served here is the drink.

I came in U.K. for eating Nanna Biryanis ....I like & love to eat always biryanis but hear I don't found the original old Dhaka cities Nanna biriyani..Borhany was also so so but Fish Ticca was good ..I hope in future I will find hear more batter.....

Unfortunately the toilet was blocked on our visit. There was a nasty smell. The food however was very good. It's more about what standard you are willing to accept. Good food but not enough to warrant 4 stars ... sorry guys but make the effort.

A la recherche d'un restaurant indien, nous somme tombé sur celui-ci, le personnels est correcte mais il manque une clim pour les journée d'été. Ayant l'habitude de la cuisine indienne est bengali, le repas était assez ... industriel, comparer au restaurant indien du sud de la France. Petit soucis a la fin, le serveur ne voulais pas accepter au début notre carte bancaire car celui-ci était française.

Interior is very poor, no air conditioning, customer service is also not up to the mark. But I tasted the real taste Kacchi Biriyani here. I tried Kacchi Biriyani in many Bangladeshi restaurants in East London. But this one had the real taste.

Went there two times just to eat the kacchi. The food was amazing and reminds you of that from back home. Must visit the place and try the food if you are in East London.

I've been here many times, whenever I get nostalgic for food from my hometown of Dhaka, I pop by for some proper Kacchi Biryani - they have all sorts of delicious things besides biriyani, like haleem and fish dishes straight from Bangladesh, so if you're looking for something truly authentically Bangladeshi rather than the more fushion-esque food that tends to be served in Bangladeshi-owned restaurants and described as 'Indian' here in London, this is one of the spots to head to! I have yet to sit down and have a meal there, I usually get take away but I'd be happy to sit in one of these days.I should add that it's not a traditionally nice place with table cloths and things, more of a hole-in-the-wall vibe but perfectly clean and well maintained, the service is great and there's clearly a neighbourhood atmosphere to the place. There are other spots down that stretch of road towards Whitechapel station but they seem really rather grubby and dingy by comparison, I don't have the guts to try them. This place, on the other hand, I love.

I go there few times and always find good test which is remind me about original old Dhaka food. Last time I had vuna kichury with salad , the test was excellent. I definitely visit again...

I used to go "KOLAPATA" last week one of my friend push me to go "NANNA BIRIANI"I been there last Wednesday, 2 waiter working in the field and one guy sitting on the table and drinking tea, most probably he is the owner or partner of this restaurant,my girl friend wanted to place order and she call "BHAISAB" can i place order" sylhety people must know the meaning of "BHAISAB". The man who was drinking tea he just getting angry and said there is no "BHAISAB" call "BHAI" !!! He was so rude with us, i was very disappointed. I am from sylhet and i felt insulted. Whitechapel is a sylhety area i strongly recommend to sylhety people not to go to "NANNA BIRIANI" they are RESIST .and they has one star in food hygienic which is so bad. "KOLAPATA" serve 100 times good food then nanna biriani and kopalata has 4 star in food hygienic. And their service is 1000% better then "NANNA BIRIANI"

This place looks unimpressive from the outside - but then in London, there's no correlation between how good a place looks and how it actually is - so I gave it a try, and I'm glad I did. If you like rice, you'll be in heaven here, the portions are huge and the fish (Elish) I tried was really nicely cooked. It's true what other reviewers have said, the place has very little atmosphere or comfort, but I hope it becomes a success as it is adding a slightly different style of food to the area.

We descended to try out their biriyani on a windy Saturday evening. Here is what we recommend and we ordered for ourselves:Murag PulaoKacchi BiriyaniChatpatiWe liked the food very much, the level of oil was perfect and the mix of ingredients, spices was great. The meat was tender. We also ordered a take away.Price range around £5-£7 per Biriyani dish.The place had a strange smell inside, poor interior or no decoration as such. It is a sad observation that Bangladeshi restaurants in the UK in general treat interior design and aesthetics as the least important. There is a lot of room for improvement in the interior department as having a meal is about an experience and where the meal is consumed is part of the deal.

Ambiente agradável. Serviço rápido e atencioso,porções generosas. Fui mais apenas para provar o tal arroz indiano, e é saboroso. Muito bom!!!

Best Biriany in uk is Nanna biriany. Excellent taste, no competitor can beat it . Now Nanna Biriany is one of the best brand of Biriany in india and Bangladeshi cuisine.Brilliant and gentle, service by Russel makes it best of bests. Thanks all of Nanna Biriany

This is a truly magical restaurant who has managed to achieve the impossible by bringing the true taste of Bengali food. The biriyani is perfect and the staff is really friendly and helpful. The only thing they can improve is the speed of food made when it gets insanely busy even though it takes time to prepare.

Shocking food. Murog polau lacks flavour, which means no taste other than just easting the rice. Just shocking. Even the fuchka was overdosed with lemon spray or either made the day before and only 6 pieces for more that £2.50

waste of time and money.I never eat any rubbish food like nanna biriyani in london. Please chamge cheef as soon as possible.

Chitol fish curry, Mutton Biryani, Elish Biryani, Elish Bhapa awesome in taste. Service is good and staffs are very friendly.

That was a great dinner with my friends. I liked their dishes very much.They were friendly & their service was good enough.I like their environment & biryani.

wanted to taste their Biryani so went with friends and can confirm foods were tasty however people should not compare Biryani with same taste that you can from authentic source in Bangladesh. There are some young men works and appreciate their service, attentive and friendly. Can recommend for a standard meal.

Hatten großen hunger und waren finanziell eher nicht so gut ausgerüstet. Da haben wir uns für dieses Restaurant entschieden. Eine richtige Mahlzeit zum satt werden inkl. Getränk hat etwa 10 GBP gekostet. Die Ausstattung / Möbel im Restaurant erfüllt seinen Zweck, der Wirt war super freundlich und das sehr gut gelungene, lecker indische Essen wird innerhalb von 10 Minuten nach Bestellung serviert. Waren anschließend satt und zufrieden. Vielen Dank!

I never ever eat any horoble birayani in my life like nanna biryani.. i have seen thats old dhaka birayani thats reason i went there with my wife and sister after got dishes there was only 2 bone with bit meat and taste was horoble.. i am not recomemded this nanna biryani

The biryani here is exactly like Bangladesh wow guys u need experience this place truly back home food service is excellent worth my journey all the from Enfield

Nice ambience. Quick and attentive service,Generous portions BUT the Kachhi Biryany had no taste, aroma or the left over smell in your hand afer finishing eating and washing your hand. Alas the memory of Dhaka remained unfulfilled. Suggest raise price for Kachhi and have a proper preparation and NOT insult the memory of the old renowned chef.

Living England last 2 years. But I haven't eat this kind of tasty food in last 2 years..Sapor in very very good.. Nice and friendly atmosphere here.. Thanks to chefs for making this tasty food... It's good value... And I think every Bangali should have try at least once..I try time when I was in my country.. And I feel same taste like before..

Large portions for take away rice naan dishes curry and spices very tasty. Will never forget how it tasted, the flavours are exactly how it should be for asian people. When u come in the restaurant u will feel like these people will cook a nice meal for you and just let u recommend some of their best dishes. Highly recommend for people living in whitechapel/brick lane.

A humble restaurant with a great service.Great food and not expensive at all.Had a chicken doner with nan and the 'kuchi biryani' which comes with a special gravy.What can I say, just awesome!
