The one and only real Hazi Biriyani!
At Nazira Bazar!
Price was okbut unfortunately so much disappointed by their services and food quality.now a days this Hazi Biriyani is just running by their name thats it!
The real Hajir Biriyani of Dhaka. This the main branch of Hazi Biriyani. Two other branches are in Basundhara and Motijheel. But the taste of biriyani is decreasing.
This is real Haji Biriyani shop, You will find hundreds of biriyani shops in Dhaka, but most of the people dont know the location of real Haji biriyani. The crowd around the shop tells rest of the story. If you are planning to go with your family or friends at off day or lunch time you have to prepare for a long time wait. You might end up getting bored and getting into another biriyani shop, but you patience will worth it for the Biriyani of here. Despite being a popular food shop in Dhaka the location is bit cozy and hard to find and they do not do the marketing by putting any board near the road or shop. The shop doesnt even have the identification name over it. Place is little small, you may fine the place not very hygenic but the food worth the money💰. Giving it 3 star because of lacking of sitting capacity and the hygenic concers.
Special Kacchi Biryani restaurant. An Iconic food place of the old town. They cook biryani with mustard oil. Famous since their opening.
One of most popular and famous traditional chef's food shop "Haji Biriyani" is named by it's founder. Their biriyani is still so popular in our country & also one of the most iconic food of Old Dhaka.
They are popular! As the market is changing they should improve customer hospitality.
Biriyani of this restaurant is renowned and traditional food of Dhaka city. There are many restaurants named as Haji/Hajir Biriyani, but this one is the original.
Location of this restaurant is not very good. And to me the Biriyani also tasted ordinary. I found nothing special. So if you are planning to go there from a distant place it might not worth your travel. The place and food not seems hygienic either.
Taste and quality satisfactory but miss the old & original mastered oil flavor which was actually Hajir Biriyani's real uniqueness. I'm talking about the time back 30-35 years.
Haji Biriyani is very famous store only for Special Biriyani. They don't sell any other item except Biriyani which is very testy. This business was established by a Dhakaia at Alu Bazar, Old Town in Dhaka many years back.
Taste is good but meat quantity & quality can be better.
Good biriyani. Price is very reasonable. Overlooked the hygiene situation because of the low price.
Its a lovely place for biriyani, the name of haji. But quality now very poor. But its famous still now. Loving it
