The best authentic Hyderabadi biryani restaurant in Dubai. The best part is the customer service provided by its staff especially Mr. Almas, he always makes sure that the customers are satisfied with the food and service. A big thanks to Mr. ALMAS for always providing the best dining experience. Love the food and taste in this restaurant. Please note this place is equally good for breakfast. Very competitive price with great taste and service. I highly recommend this place, go for it.

T was a fine lunch.. I was worried about the quantity..if it goes high ... I may be wasting..but they was an optionMini biriyaniFantastico....Mini biriyani also had pretty well quantity of rice as well as meat..I asked for mutton but got chicken..Doesnt matter as long as the service (to apologise) is fine and dishes served with taste.

I really love Saif Restaurant but the original Hor Al Anz branch... to be honest i didnt like anything here. The food was not like the Hor Al Anz branch. Not going to this branch again. Would go to Hor Al Anz branch.

SAIF RESTAURANT.,locates in Hor al anz, opp khair Darbar restaurant.Ambience 2/5.Crowded during peak hours.Must try dry fruit rice and kofte la salan on Sunday, mutton biryani, khatti daal talava gosh and plain rice.Good place to have a cup of tea n samosa, you have variety of options during snack.

One of the best restaurant serving hyderabadi cuisine. They have one of the best biryani in town with a very competitive price tag. Restaurant dining is not really advisable due to its congested nature but take away and delivery is the best suggestion. Really a must visit restaurant in Dubai.

Hi Restaurant,I was not going to post any review or rating. Just because of your management response I have to do it.First of all, I forgot to take the name of the driver he was a very kind and polite person, I appreciate his talking skills and behavior, you should give a rise to that Driver.Second I do not appropriate your managers behavior. Kind a negative and less knowledgeable person, sorry but take my advice“Educate your manager”But like your food and driver service,Thanks,Your Customer.

Family pack for 4, mutton biryani the beta one which has some chicken 65 as well as. And the cost is just 65 aed and here you can hang on with your friends for any treat and have a great treat. You would definitely love the Hyderabadi biryani. It is too much rush in Friday’s and every other day as well. And they mange the crowd very well. And they also have a very quick service. Enjoy the biryani which I said you will never regret guys. Common try on. This

This place actually serves the true Hyderabadi Cusine. Try their daily special dish & ONE of the best Biryani in Dubai.Make sure you ask them for tamate ki chutney, dont be shy its on the house.😁

My experience from today’s lunch (31-Jan) ! Ordered their mutton biryani with a Spl. mention for it to be spicy and it came out bland/without masala. Instead of my mutton dish I got a chicken dish. I came from DSO for their famed biryani to get take away and was fully disappointed. Hope they keep up to their name next time !

Review №13

Arguably one of the best Biryani in Dubai, have been here multiple times and tried most of the dishes.Nice little place with great food , u get dishes that u otherwise would not find in other restaurants. I had their bestseller - Tala hua gosht which you can find on almost every table, the khatti dal and roti they serve is also too good. They have other day based specialities like Matki ki phalli ka saalan, . I also had bagaara chawal which is a Saturday special.The Mutton Biryani is one of the best Hyderabadi Biryani you can find in town , definitely one among the top 3, remember to ask for extra masala - it will only taste better. Haleem and Mutton Paaya in the evenings is also brilliant. Haleem can be easily voted as the best in Dubai.Too many good things going for the restaurant - The hustle and bustle of the place add to its character.

Entice your taste buds with traditional hyderabadi cuisine. This restaurant serves variety of dishes from Hyderabadi Dum biryani, Tandoori chicken, Harees, talahua gosth, and delicacies such as double ka meetha, kaddu ki kheer, qubani, and several other dishes to choose from.A perfect place to treat your friends and family and celebrate Food.

To all those who are planning to order food from this restaurant please read this review and then decideFirst the food is delivered after 1hour 30 minutes after u place the order.Second just because the delivery guy delivers the food we cannot see whats inside.when you reach home and open they simply give Biryani rice if you order Biryani.If a complaint is made to the restaurant they say to wait and after 1 hour u call again they say they dont have drivers and they will send good food in the next order.Its a pity and shame that a restaurant which boosts of being from 1978 has the worst kind of service.From the food packing staff who are cheating to the person who addresses the complaints they are supposed to understand that its hard earned money which is being given to enjoy some good food after a long day of work.If the management of this restaurant is reading this please take a note of what is happening in your restaurant..you lost few good valuable customers today ..Requesting everyone to understand this review before you order food from here because finally its your hard earned money that you are loosing and your valuable time waiting for the food.Hope nobody else go through what I have went through today..

The taste of Hyderabadi Mutton Biryani was Epic, in true sense, also double ka meetha was perfect. Only bad thing was the environment of the restaurant, AC was not working at all and small sized portion.

From delicious *Chicken 65* to *Chicken Tikka masala curry* from fresh salad to scrumptious *Hyderabadi chicken biryani* everything at Saif Restaurant would be sufficient to satisfy all your gastronomic needs.Moreover, conveniently located in Hor Al Anz area, finding a parking spot can be difficult. Would love to visit again. Humble and cooperative staff. Two thumbs up.

I have been visiting har al anz Saif from last 4 years, I never had issues but recently their staff (specially a guy called Nasser) have changed their behavior and started behaving very rudely, it looks like they are trying to destroy the image which this restaurant build in recent times...even counter guys are trying to hide his actions, anyways I have switched to Rumaan at clock tower now ...

I would just say wow. The taste is 10/10. Although the place is a little crowdy and in this time of Corona it is not safe to sit there and relax while enjoying their world class biryani. I am from Pakistan but I must say this is the first thing I liked about Indian food. 😂. On the other side of the story is that I dont know much about Indian food either. The restaurant is located in Abu Hail area/ Diera Dubai. If you are in Dubai and you havent visited this restaurant yet then you are missing it big time. It is a must go. i live in Ajman and I do not have any kind of car but still I did go for this restaurant because the hype for this restaurant was too high to miss it. so I asked my friend to take me there and he was surprised to see that I did not go there before. The best thing about this restaurant is you can never leave empty stomach 🤣. They provide extra rice with the biryani to fulfill your hunger which is the best thing. So do go there and let me know about your experience. Cheers ❣️

If you are a Hyderabadi and craving to have some authentic Hyderabadi food then please DO NOT GO to SAIF restaurant.Haleem tastes like khorma with added meat and Biryani doesnt even taste like Biryani. Waste of money specially after fasting for a whole day in Ramadan.

Actually this review is for the newly opened restaurant beside Biryaniwala. I stood infront these restaurants and took time to decide which one to choose as I am planning to take from Saif for first time. Finally took it and tasted it. Personally I feel comparatively Biryaniwala is much better for the taste of meat and rice.

Ordered few itemsDelivery was very late as compared to assured time.One item wasnt available, therefore replaced by other itemMutton dum Biryani was good in taste as well as aromaThree gravies, though name was different (as ordered) but base was all same in taste & color.(Dum ka mutton, chicken boti & kadhai)Chicken 65 was ok in taste.There was no salad served alongside like many other restaurants of same category.3 stars given just because of biryani as curries were not of great taste to distinguish between.Need to improve on many things

Must visit this restaurant if you are a biryani lover. Yummy food specially mutton biryani,prices are very reasonable and the delivery time is also manageable. Very polite delivery boys. Mouth waters when we think about mutton biryani. It been a habit now every week to order mutton biryani from here.. even the mirchi ka salan along with biryani is very yum.The quantity they give for 18Aed is very reasonable.Keep up the quality work..Waiting for your mutton biryani until next week.

Loved it!!! Chaos ensues you once you enter but the food is worth the chaos loved the reception of the people this is the first time in a Hyderabadi restaurant the people serving you listen to what you want with patience. Its always the other way around they will either not be bothered, you are there or else will have a weird kind of attitude which will kill your mood to even have a takeaway from any other hyderabadi hotel.

Review №84

One of the top 5 restaurants mainly for the hyderabadi dum biriyani in the entire UAE started 1979, although renovation completed as of now, still interior desinging to be completed. If you are a favorite biriyani foodie, go for this restaurant and have it. Price is 17 aed/-. But the biriyani is worth. Have extra rice...one full biriyani is enough for 2 persons... same as the sweet over, the old time sweet dish- double ka meettha... awsome one...

I read the review in Gulf news and thought to order.It was a delicious biryani, slightly spicy , but maybe that how dum biryani is.It is clean , unlike the other who stuff the rice with messy masala.the price was slightly high @ 18 dhs, but i think it was ok as per the quantity. The package was good and well organized.Overall a great biryani. definately will order more. Excellent servic e.
