Each portion features layers of slow-cooked meat or vegetables infused with saffron, cardamom, and cloves to achieve deep, complex flavor profiles.

Patrons select from various protein options complemented by sides like fresh raita and spicy salan sauce designed to balance the intensity of the heat.

Don't rely on them-your guests could end up waiting. The problem is they accept the order & then cancel it for no reason. Sometimes the store even shows as closed at 10:30 PM after taking the order. It's better not to order from DoorDash since they can shut down service anytime without notice. This is already my second order they've canceled.

Samir is a Rockstar!
Amazing biryani & Haleem. Would be nice if the chef stays around late to try their fresh naans.
Only improvement for Mr. Zaheers amazing biryani would be add potatoes to give it an authentic Karachi taste.

I'm a regular customer at Student Tasty Biryani & I've always enjoyed their food, especially the chicken paratha roll. However, today's experience was extremely disappointing.
The paratha was clearly stale & not fresh at all, & the sauce tasted really off it completely ruined the roll. I've never had such a bad paratha from them before, which made it even more surprising.
It's frustrating because when you're a loyal customer, you expect consistency. The quality of food should be the same whether it's dine-in or takeaway, but unfortunately, that wasn't the case today.
Very disappointed. I hope they seriously work on maintaining their standards.

quality has dropped unfortunately, non-veg thali used to be great. Recently ordered & the curry was completely watered down with the two smallest pieces of chicken in each. Also they somehow completely burnt the inside of a samosa. Such a shame, used to be my go-to place.

I came here a few times before & enjoyed their food. This time not so lucky, I waited 1h15 (not joking i checked the time of my receipt) for a chicken byriani when the store was empty. The owner was kind enough to give me a free drink, but my mood was pretty bad. I was gonna give it a 1 star but I saw a few boxes filled with takeout orders, so they might of been really busy. Anyways I'm not gonna back to this place.
