Marhaba Indian Restaurant (Halal) in Middlesbrough

Worst Experience of my whole life

I eat 65 biryani, it is delicious & very tasty 😋

It was amazing taste like Hyderabadi biryani

Best biryani ever tasted in uk, not exaggerating it always tastes like proper hyderabadi style like back home, they never compromised in quality and quantity.

Great taste nice atmosphere. Well respected staff...

Could be better. It would be ideal if food colour is reduced for chilly chicken

Chicken 65 biryani chicken was worrest chicken was block color

I am a big fan of Marhaba food … i love it

I have ordered something else and delivered something else

I hadn't received the whole order

Due to the food color used on chicken 65 on April 4 2024 I got food poisoning

Received less quantity and not hot

We recently had briyani , one dum briyani and chicken 65 briyani, the quantity is okay , but I worried about the quality of chicken which they gave as chicken 65 , chicken peices are in brown colour and goey texture , taste okay for briyani but not happy with the chicken they provided , asked a person over there no proper answer and said chicken is cooked with blood that's why colour is like that , if that is answer they must have washed properly and cooked , if fresh chicken then why the colur is brown ? seriously not happy with the answer and no proper dine in set up to eat , no hand-wash area and bathroom, which should be need of upgrade and they have to look and check quality of chicken before giving to customers and really unhappy as a working girl in restaurant reheats briyani on microwave which show it is not freshly prepared.

Food taste very delicious, that’s the reason I order here. The only problem is there is no proper management and no body knows what they are doing. Not sure what time they are open and what time they close. No clarity. Once placed an order they say the food will be ready in 1/2 hr once gone there to pick up there will be 1 hr waiting time. Very very poor management, I hope your will have some taking time in improving the service. All the best.

today the biriyani was too spicy, otherwise mouthwatering

I’m customer of this restaurant but the food arrived yesterday tasted bad and I have vomited after 4 hours of eating it

``Marhaba Indian Restaurant offers a delightful array of tasty dishes. The aromatic flavors and rich spices make every bite a memorable experience. The cozy ambiance adds to the overall dining pleasure. Definitely a must-visit for food enthusiasts!`` Specially sunday's lamb biryani is mouth watering.

The real Hyderabadi flavor. Reminded me of my home. Great taste, great quantity, great price(affordable). It was totally worth it.

Of all the biryanis I have tried in Middlesbrough, I would say Marhaba’s biryani is really delicious. Both the chicken and lamb biryani are flavourful. Also would recommend to try their fried rice, chapati and different curries.

We are regular customers of Marhaba due to their quality in food and service. The portion for Chicken 65 biriyani is really appreciated. Other biriyanis' are also really good. Spicy but tasty.

Some food was very good. One plate went in the bin hence 3/5. Thanks

I ordered chicken fried rice, they took 20 minutes of time but wen I came home and opened the lid there was some plastic kind of broken pieces in the food and also the food is very bad with sour taste, and the chicken pieces are smelling very bad, absolutely disappointed with the food. Please double check whether the packing is good and has something in it or not. It’s really harmful for people who’s going to have the food,I would not recommend this to anyone.

Absolutely disgusting avoid had the chicken 65 not 1 Piece of chicken was edible spat out and chucked in the bin. Massive portion served within 30 seconds of ordering. Waste of hard earned money up your standards the chicken texture is nothing I've ever experienced 🤮

The food was absolutely delicious, bursting with authentic flavors that transported me back to India. From the savory curries to the fragrant biryanis, every dish was a culinary delight.

This restaurant offers an exceptional dining experience with its authentic Hyderabadi biryani and haleem. The biryani is bursting with flavor, perfectly cooked rice, and tender meat, while the haleem is rich, hearty, and full of traditional spices. The ambiance is inviting, the service is top-notch, and the prices are reasonable for the quality of food provided. Overall, a must-visit for anyone craving delicious Hyderabadi cuisine.

The first restaurant I have tried having food and trust me when I say this from the day I had food here to till now I have sticked to Marhaba. From the moment you step inside, the rich aromas of freshly ground spices and simmering curries transport you to the vibrant streets of India.The chicken dum biryani is equally impressive, the basmati rice infused with a harmonious blend of spices and vegetables. The flavors are bold, complex, and true to traditional Indian cooking methods. I would highly recommend this restaurant and I promise it meets your expectations.

STUPENDO FATABULOUSLY FANTSTICAL MAGICAL TASTEY BIRYANIS I HAVE IN MARHABA THANKS MARHABA FOR GIVING THE TYPICAL AUTHENTIC TASTE OF HYDERABAD IN MIDDLESBROUGH

Food is Amazing and delicious.Being here in UK we are getting taste of our country HYDERABAD.top of all they give more quantity compare to others..everybody has friendly nature.

Very poor quality and taste. I ordered a fried rice which is very bad. First time I am having a fried rice with curry leaves

Delivery was quick apart from that food was shocking popcorn chicken was cremated to a point there wasn't much chicken in them got chicken tikka curry for me and my daughter that is supposed to be mild it burnt my mouth of yo a point we couldn't eat it was supposed to get chips with popcorn chicken didn't get them will not order again waste of £26

Today chicken pulihara was good so called biryani

Can't stop dreaming of those fragrant rice. We'll be back soon!

Marhaba delivers flavour explosions without breaking the bank. Veg samosas, oh my!

I bought a chicken65 biryani. The food was very tasty and more than adequate quantity. There was enough quantity for two people to eat. I have a suggestion that the food coloring is a bit too much. It would be great if it could be eliminated/reduced.

Marhaba's naan is impossibly fluffy & curries are mind-blowingly good. Don't miss the paneer makhani!

Marhaba's presentation is as stunning as the food. Vegetable biryani symphony!

i visited many time great food especially chicken 65 biriyani i just love that. but atmosphere for dine-in is boring and quite no music or radio and need to increase the size of side with biriyani . Moreover highly recommended to try this place especially chicken biryanis and chicken 65 .

Hyderabadi Biryani, to me, is not just a dish; it's a culinary journey that transports you to the heart of the vibrant city of Hyderabad

The worst Indian food I’ve ever had I found hair in my keema bread everything was awful

The Hyderabadi Biryani had the perfect balance of spices, and the tender meat was cooked to perfection. The long-grain basmati rice was fragrant and complemented the dish beautifully. It truly transported me to the streets of Hyderabad.

Best place for authentic Biriyanis ,curry and naan

Didn't expect a worst one i never had before. Had a chicken 65 biriyani but wasn't good at all. Im not going to try that again. It was coloured and salty.

Ordered a chicken 65 and chicken 65 biriyani. Didnt like either, cos it was not upto the level i expected. 65 was full of with color and tasteless.

Biryani's are too good and so delicious. Didn't like anything apart from Biryani's. Chicken tikka naan is too thick and isn't tasty. Quantity is a huge plus point.

My haydrabadi biryani hunt brought me to this amazing place called Marhaba. I have been missing the authentic taste of haydrabadi biryani and trust me I have not been disappointed. Luckily I have been served by one of the owners and have got a chance to know all about the quality and staff and all the effects going into bringing the authentic food. Portion was very good for a one person I have even take home for dinner. At least my cheat meal every week is sorted. ☺️

I have ordered chilli chicken The worst dish I have ever ate. It is so sour with so much of tamarind flavour in it and it is so salty. Don't ever try this restaurant 🙏🏻

Food tasted extremely salty and bad. Chicken popcorn was nuggets and was old and tasted extremely bad. Parathas were burned. Biriyani was extremely salty. Chilly Chicken tasted like puke. We lost £30 and had no other option but to bin it. Very disappointing.

I have lived in Hyderabad for quite good time. I must say the biryani here it is an authentic hydrabadi dum biryani ( both chicken dum biryani and special biryani are awesome). Thank you guys.

Unfortunately I had to dine here. We ordered 2 Masala Dosas They brought the first one and we started waiting …. Waiting ….. waiting… the first one finished …. And again waiting … waiting …. The filling was very cold inside, not cooked well, tasteless. Definitely not the place to dine for Dosa.

Marhaba Indian Restaurant indeed showcases the rich flavors of Hyderabad, but to elevate their culinary experience, they could consider enhancing the presentation of their dishes, perhaps by adding more vibrant flavours, incorporating more regional spices could further diversify their already delightful menu. The chicken piece is biryani was Juicy and Tender.

First time ordering from here the Chicken Dum Biryani was so flavourful and hot, and the Samosa was so tasty and delivery was incredibly quick. Will definitely be ordering from here again soon !!

Being from Bradford I have high expectations of curries. They were not met. The tikka masala was too sweet and the chapatis were dry and tasted stale. Won't be ordering again.

The delivery was later than expected i was already asleep

Full thing in the bin as found bones in the lamb madras took photos absolutely what a waste had to spend more money to get from elsewhere. Awful

It is soo good to have Hyderabad Biryani.

The food is very salty, very bad service and delivered at late

Very good food and lively staff

Very tasty, very spicy! Some cooling accompaniments for the biryani, eg mint raita, would be great!

Best fried rice going anywhere, Lamb curry is also superb, I'm glad I give them another chance the food has never been an issue just the service which has improved now would like to see more back on the menu. Thanks

Chicken 65 Biryani was good. However, also, had Veg Fried rice which was normal tasty but resulted in dysentery within the next 3-4hrs. Not recommending or ordering food from here anymore.

Food missing and disgusting attitude from the guy who answered the phone. Service absolutely abysmal! First and last time will be using this place.

Ordered biryani it's was really good. Proper south indian taste.

One of the best Hyderabadi Biryani's. Chicken dum and 65 biryani are must try here. Affordable. Wait time is little more than what they mention. Even if we order 30 min prior need to wait for 10-15 mins extra. Faster service will be much appreciated.

Food taste very tasty, poor management and too much of waiting time. Not sure why the delivery driver has charged extra £1 while paying. Poor management. Food taste very delicious.

Close your shop if you don’t know how to do business. Never ever had food that had in the menu. I came many times for chicken 65 or fried piece biryani but never served. Still I have called the restaurant before I started even though after reaching restaurant ni food available except that dum biryani. Close your shop or sell it to someone. You are not deserving people to run this business

First time trying Chicken Dum Biryani here and surprisingly it’s super authentic, delicious, cheap and big portion … so highly recommended!!! The place is small and only accept cash or bank transfer … so remember to bring some cash 💷! We chose to eat in this time for dinner but Utensils 🍴provided are all plastic and very flimsy, so not very convenient to eat meat based dishes … So next time will be only ordering take-away!

These people waste of running this restaurant. They don’t even have any food at any time. Anything you ask them in the menu they will say no we don’t have them. I don’t know what they are doing business in the name of restaurant. Something is running inside it other than food.

Sometimes the restaurant could be a bit dirty, but good is definitely one of the best in Middlesbrough

I'm surprised by the quality of your Biriyani! I had zero faiths before I placed the order for the spicy one but to my surprise,this is surely the best Biriyani in town ,10/10 ! Must try 🙌🏻

I like the food very much this is not the first time I bought food from their it's so tasty and reminds me of India which is miss the most....overall I love marhaba❤️

Wonderful mouthwatering hyderabadi biryani🤤🤤🤤the taste resembles of shah ghouse and rumaan 🤭not missing them though🫣

The biryani at this Indian restaurant is amazing! It's flavorful and the perfect level of spice. The service is also great.

Extrodinary ambiance Charan is the best chef overall

I have tried Haleem real Authentic taste with pure Ghee....Just love it.

Indian food - Quantity and taste is good .

Worst For the first time in the UK had food that had me an upset stomach. Went to have Masala Dosa excitedly thinking it would be nice Did not get it the first time Went back again the next day Firstly, the sitting space was not clean and had a weird smell. Ordered 3 masala dosa Each dosa came with approx 10 mins intervals All of us had to wait so that we could eat together by the time the food had turned cold. Dosas were fine. The sambhar and the chutney had foul smell to it as if it was 2-3 days old or maybe more. Sambhar was so less in quantity even after being only watery. Extremely disappointed Never going back again

I ordered chicken biryani 65 & masala dosa. It was delicious. I will order again from there. 😊 lovely people aswell.

Ignorant imbeciles. Don't waste your time or money

I ordered chicken dum biriyani, chicken 65 biriyani and chicken fried rice. The taste and quantity is good. If anyone looking for Hyderabad/Telangana food, this is the place

This is my fav place for the Authentic Chicken Dum Biryani

Not worth the money more rice than anything tiny bit of curry sauce won’t be ordering again

To be honest food tastes good but service not upto mark delay in delivery 2hours, food is not hot , need to maintain some hygiene quite upset with food

The Biryani is Fantastic here, and gives an Authentic taste of the Hyderabadi Dum Biryani.

authentic biryani served beat yatste

Please update the menu if only biriyani is available also don’t cancel the order after one hour some of us have other things to do

Poor Management...They don't properly answer the calls from the customers

One of the very best Biryani’s I ever had after a longtime. This purely reminded me of the Authentic Hyderabadi Dum Biryani and can still feel the flavour of it. Feels like #GharKaKhaana… Kudos to Omair for quality food and great customer service. Wishing you all the very best.

Nice food, but service is slow, and staff doesn't cooperative.

Food is nice. Will ses you again.

Food was very tasty and delicious

Nice Food the sweet dish was amazing freshly prepared

1. Staff is so arogant and giving preference to the known ones instead of giving to first come first serve. They dont know how to treat customers please try to learn some manners and how to deal with customers. If you dont enhance definitely you will loose customers like me now. I am not willing to go again. 2. Food taste is not improved and quality is not good. 3. I was a regular customer but not anymore now 0 stars based on my experience with the staff and food.

I ordered food first time very delicious and tasty food see you again 😊

Was the most oily thing in the world and so watery . Would not order. SOS it is Bad

Good food and very friendly custumer service

Food is really good after so long time i eat dosa with the proper test biryani also so authenticit like Hyderabadi biryani 10/10 and good price also not expensive see u soo again for Dosa she is really good 😊😊😊😊

Poor food quality. I had special biryani. Biryani was cooked in microwave and chicken pieces are in precook condition. Definitely not worth the money.
