Deccan Morsels

What a cute little spot! The chandeliers were so pretty, and the whole place had such a cozy vibe. Loved the ambiance! We ordered quite a few things, so here’s the lowdown: Paneer roll – This came stuffed with loads of paneer wrapped in a soft rumali roti. I miss good rumali roti, so this was a treat! As a vegetarian, I stuck to paneer, but the chicken and shawarma options looked amazing if that’s your thing. They also served a decent portion of fries on the side—crispy on the outside, soft inside, with a touch of masala(spices). Just perfect! The roll itself tasted good—not amazing. My partner liked it, though! My major gripe was the red food color—didn’t love how it looked. That aside, it wasn’t oily(love that), super filling, and came with a ranch-style dip that paired perfectly with both the roll and the fries. Totally worth it! Bun maska – OMG, this was the star for me! Soft, buttery bread served warm with just the right amount of sweetness. It was mild and so satisfying—I’d happily come back just for this! Whether you dip it in chai or eat it on its own, it’s such a treat. Bun malai – This one wasn’t warm, and the malai was a thinner consistency, as they kindly explained beforehand. It’s a little sweeter too. It was decent, but for me, the bun maska was unbeatable. Still, worth trying if you like sweeter treats. Chai – We tried both the Zafrani chai and Irani chai. Hands down, Zafrani chai was the winner! It had the perfect sweetness, and we both absolutely loved it. If you’re a tea lover, skip the free chai at Apni Mandi and try this instead—it’s so worth it. The Irani chai was less sweet but still great. My top pick? Zafrani chai all the way. 10/10. The place was packed with people, but the staff did a fantastic job keeping up with the crowd. Parking can be tricky even though there are plenty of spots, especially since it’s near Starbucks and Apni Mandi. Highly recommended! It’s a great spot for a quick stop, and the food, service and vibe make it worth a visit. Definitely give it a try!

12/27/24 Friday shaahi tukda free sample to try, sweet but taste very good. Saffron chai very good flavor. Goat dum biryani taste alright felt dry n only small 6 pcs of goat rest all white yellow rice. In $20 I can eat buffet @ kabila in union city. Look all negative reviews about biryani's. People should stop buying biryani's from them till they improve quality n quantity. 12/16/24 Monday good location but limited parking, indoor n outdoor seating. Tried Bun malai (pls put more malai), masala fries, Irani chai all taste good. Come back n try more menu items soon. 11/6/24 Wednesday

Service is fine, no plus, no minus. Tasted only the bun maska, Irani chai and fries. Irani chai / bun maska (was a little in the sweeter side) was as they are expected to be, but fries were just okay, flavors could be better. I guess the food was fine and everything. The place was so overhyped, that the main disappointment was that there the vibe was very indian-y, as in very uncomfortable for girls- just too many guys talking in groups in and out of the store- just too uncomfortable for girls to be in and move around!

Best chai I've ever had in my life - get some bun maska to dip in it and you're transported to an Irani cafe in Mumbai (or so I'm told by my wife who grew up there) Do yourself a favor and try the bun malai too - and if you're feeling dangerous, get some chicken 65 🔥🔥🔥 with rumali (paper-thin) roti!

Initially I have loved this place for amazing food and was our go to late night food place but had a terrible experience recently due to subpar quality and quantity. There was no flavor in the biryani and hardly one pice of chicken. Additionally, the shawarma and chicken 65 has degraded than what they served initially when they opened. They hardly gave us 8-9 fries with shawarma which had absolutely no seasoning( no masala no salt). The only good thing was the tea. We drove 15 miles for this food that we initially liked but would not come back until they revert to the quality and quantity they served when opened.
