This place is a little off the beaten trail, and it’s tiny. But I have to tip my hat, they prepare a mean dish. It was as good as many other more prominent Indian restaurants. I visited it alone and grazed my way through the buffet, and everything tasted as if your Indian auntie made it. In a second visit I had the curry, and it was very flavorful.

Finding breakfast without sugar in US is extremely hard. So we had a light breakfast at Starbucks and then proceeded to see the Cathedral Basilica of St Louis. We got hungry fast so we decided to hit Priyaa Restaurant which was a little further away then we wanted. So, when we arrived I wasn’t expecting much as the location didn’t look very good. The ambiance was not pleasing, but the food was palate pleasing. They had 5 different appetizers – idli, upma, vada, mirchi bhaji and puri chole. They had so many options that I was fill from just the appetizers. The upma tasted as if it was made at home, the idli was so soft my son gobbled it down asking for more (which he never does), the mirchi bajji was just the right amount of spicy, and the vadas weren’t oily at all and were perfect. The brinjal fry was perfect and tasted yum! The sambar was so tasty I just had an entire bowl by itself. The rasam was good too, but the sambar tasted better. The Chutneys were on point and tasted absolutely delectable. I can’t emphasize enough on how good the food was.

We ordered two tandoori thali, and one chicken dum Biryani. Tandoori didn’t taste good . It didn’t even seem like it was cooked in a tandoor oven. It lacked the actual tandoori flavor. Now let’s talk about the chicken dum biryani. This is basically basmati plain white rice mixed with some spicy chicken curry that is extremely spicy especially when we ordered “medium “. This so called chicken dum biryani didn’t have any flavor or characteristics of an actual chicken dum biryani. There was no biryani spices, no color, no taste , nothing. Like I said above, it was basically a basmati white rice mixed with some spicy chicken curry. Also, they advertise one price and charge you a different price which is way higher. This is false advertising and a cause for a law suit and penalty from the state. You can’t advertise one price and charge a different price. Overall, $57 dollars down the drain. don’t waste your money here. This place has some shady business practices. If you order a chicken biryani, don’t expect it to taste like chicken biryani. It will taste like rice with some curry dumped on it. This is a disgrace for biryani. All these negative reviews you see here are true. One of the worst food quality I have ever experienced. And, the audacity of them charging higher than the advertised online menu price for such a poor quality food is just crazy to me. Don’t fall for some of the fake “5 stars” reviews here.

What can I say? This is, hands down, the best Indian food I’ve ever had. I have tried many other restaurants that are closer in proximity to my home and I am ALWAYS disappointed and irritated that I wasted money on something I end up throwing out vs giving my money to a place that I love. The owners are wonderful, and I miss being able to go in for their buffet. (They only do to go orders currently: covid sucks). Definitely give this place a chance if you’re looking for yummy food and courteous service!

For the past decade, my family and I have been ordering food from Priyaa Indian Cuisine and they have never disappointed us. We have always had a big order, and they have always prepared our food exceptionally well and on time and they are so kind upon taking our order. Their food has always been fresh and flavorful, and they adjust well to our desired lower spice levels. We drive over 100 miles to get their food and will continue to do so. I highly recommend this restaurant, especially their gobi manchurian, masala dosas, and poori aloo!

I ordered for chicken biryani ,where i got chicken curry mixed with normal rice not even basmati rice, and they charged for $16.26which is too much worth. I was in an rush and forgot to take the bill .i don’t know why would they charge more than the normal price when its not even an biryani .Never i will order here in my entire life.

Delicious, quality food served by a very kind staff (I believe they are a family). Tonight we put in a large order and picked it up curbside. About 5 minutes after we left, the resturant called us and told us they forgot a part of our order. Not a big deal, we weren’t far away. We drove back and they not only gave us the missing food but a complimentary lassi. We also realized that there had been an issue with our payment and we didn’t leave enough tip. I asked the staff to add an additional charge for some more tip. They were very grateful but refused to take anything else. They just said “next time.” We will definitely be going back soon!

In error reading the good reviews I bought biryani from this place. It was “Horrible” , even a hawkers stall in India would have served better food. It was utterly lack of everything but chilli and boiled chicken. It was horrible, unhygienic and not recommended
