The best biryani in Singapore. Period. Very very passionate people who want to get the best food for their customers. Great quality ingredients and a place we go to over and over again!

Edd

Wasn’t love at first sight/taste but the fluffy fragrant af basmati & well-seasoned tender fall-off-bone chicken really grow on u. No gravy no problem. +Spicy chicken chop if u need ur poultry fix.

Rupesh Kumar

Well the review says it. Must try dum biriyani . Defo authentic . Chicken biriyani is better than mutton , still mutton lovers go for it, as it is kid goat and very soft n no raw smell. Kulfi must try!

Fairuz Zainal Aarif

Fluffy and fragrant briyani is a must try here. The rice was kinda spicy at 1st, but once your tastebuds adjusted, you can really enjoy the succulent meat (lamb/chicken) and appreciate the taste.

An awarded bib gourmand Michelin HALAL resto, located between bugis-Little India, I strongly recommend their mutton biryani , the tender and juicy lamb in its rice was fantastic #culinarySingapore

The Kulfi (or Qulfi) is a nice dessert to end the meal here. It's a golfball-sized ice cream with pistachio bits in it.

Ryan Nguyen

Mutton briyani is the best I found in Singapore so far. Try the ice cream as well .

Supraja Muthukrishnan

The baby goat biryani is the best mutton biryani I have tried so far. The lamb chop bhuna is a must try as well . It's very soft and you will definitely savour it ❤️❤️

Jess Thia

Big portion of nice fluffy-textured rice , but so-so portion of meat for the expensive Biryani in an old coffee shop environment. Dessert : Kulfi (thick creamy ice-cream with some nuts ) is unique.

Luxsho Logan

While not the most attractive looking restaurant , Bismillah offers some of the most authentic biryani in SG . Try the mutton - you won't regret it!

The free plain water being referred to is tap water , available at one corner at the back of the seating area. An ice box is also there

Less sweet lassi stays true to their mission statement: "Making money is our secondary objective. Making good tasting and least unhealthy food is primary. Taste counts but your health matters most."

Jay V

Having tried Yakader, Alauddin, Islamic and several others, I rate this one the best - Not heavy and oily like some others, even if it is more expensive .

Discover Singapore

Eating the dum biryani here is an absolute must. Cooked with passion by ex-adman Arif with fresh, (relatively) healthy ingredients , it certainly lives up to the claim of being the best in Singapore!

Cheen The Curious

Their briyani style is the dry rice type, served without any gravy — unlike elsewhere in Singapore. Fragrant & spicy though. Just not something I enjoy eating again

Dave D

Biryani is fantastic, one of the best I've had. Lime juice also very refreshing.

Ishan

Mutton biriyani , kebabs , mango lassi

Sawit K.

Baby goat Biryani , very tender meat serving with raita . Quiet good portion.

Cheen The Curious

My $9 serving of chicken briyani was mostly dry, many mouthfuls of over cooked rice . Didn't enjoy this style. I’ll stick with Gayatri & Sakunthala nearby, or Zam Zam & Victory along North Bridge Rd

Serious Eats

Moist, tender meats and fluffy-not-sticky grains of rice .

Omprakash Rudhru

Better than what I have tasted in tekka centre. Hope they give some gravy . Biryani is dum n it needs little hyderabadi touch ????

Yuri Kraymar

Best Dum Biryani I had in Little India, hands down! Pair with the Mango Lassi and get the Kulfi for dessert .

Sanjayvarman Ravindran

Best dum briyani ever had !!!...the briyani is perfectly moist...one can just have with without any curry

Sawit K.

Tandoori is tasty. A bit small. Serving hot and juicy

Lewy Jones

Order a kulfi for dessert and lick, don't bite so you can savour the complex flavours of the caramelised milk

Jordan Sim

All the Indians come here. Highly recommend the mutton biryani . Generous serving with great taste for less than $10.

Travis Scavone

Definitely the best biryani I’ve had. Mutton is definitely the best choice.

Q

Really authentic . Cramped up sitting area & in Singapore humid weather, the place is not for those who love aircon areas only.

Sawit K.

Kulfi , so small but good for ending meal

Sen Chew Lua

Awesome briyani . Try the goat briyani if you get the chance

ⓨⓤⓓha ヅ

Chili chicken and naan plain bread , its nice

Cheen The Curious

For an established & mature restaurant , I’m surprised by the lack of communication between the cashier & the kitchen. The kitchen doesn’t know you hv ordered & paid for your food

MAC

Goat meat briyani is super expensive at $15. Chicken briyani is $8. Kulfi is very creamy at only $2.50.

Michelin listed :)

Mutton Biryani is the best ✨

Ling

the yummiest biryani i've had in sg

Xiulian Lin

Would've been pretty epic if they include side dishes+curry in the biryani set. As for the rice being the best, I really couldn't say otherwise.

Robert L

Great kid goat biryani ... best i have ever tasted including India !

Mark Ashworth

The rice is really tasty. Good enough for Anthony Bourdain , good enough for me.

MAC

Briyani rice is softest around. But note that it's Pakistani style. No added gravy , quite dry.

Ben Mayson

Super popular little place. Delicious biryani .

Hasham Muhammed

Reach here before 8 PM. It's a small and simple place but food is really awesome!
