I went to Paradise Biryani Takeaways in Sandringham to grab some dinner, mainly because I’d heard good things about their biryani. And to be fair, the menu is impressive — heaps of options, from chicken and mutton biryani to curries and veggie dishes. The portions are pretty decent too, so no complaints there when it comes to variety or serving size.
But honestly, the experience left a lot to be desired. First off, the customer service was pretty bad. The staff barely made eye contact, seemed rushed and impatient, and didn’t even bother to acknowledge people properly. It felt like they just wanted to get through the orders without actually dealing with customers. Not a great vibe, especially when you’re spending good money.
Then there’s the parking — an absolute nightmare. There’s barely any space, and with the number of people that go there, it’s a constant mess. I had to circle around multiple times before I found a spot, and even that felt like a gamble.
And here’s the kicker — they didn’t even offer a bag for the food. you have to pay extra thats a SHAME….For a busy takeaway place, you’d think they’d be better prepared. It just came off as stingy and felt cheated.
The food itself was okay, but definitely on the oily side. I also noticed a strong artificial taste, and after doing some digging online, turns out a lot of people have complained about them using too much MSG and food colouring. It kind of took away from the whole experience, knowing that what you’re eating might not be as fresh or clean as you’d expect.
So yeah, while the biryani was decent and the portions were filling, everything else — from the service to the parking and the way they handle customers — made the whole trip way less enjoyable than it should’ve been. I probably wouldn’t go back unless they seriously sort out those issues.
