The Karahi Goat was one of the best dishes I’ve had in my life The Lamb Biryani was also the beer Biryani have had It takes a hot minute to get your food, around 40 min for us with few occupied tables, however after the first bite it was worth every minute - they are clearly scratch cooking back there 10/10 I would fly back to Oakland just to eat here

I’ve been a regular customer here, and this takeout order was absolutely fantastic—one of the best I’ve had anywhere. Last time, I wasn’t fully satisfied and shared my feedback with the owner. This time, they clearly took it seriously and went above and beyond to make things right. I ordered the lamb biryani and chicken tikka with bread, and everything was incredibly fresh, flavorful, and spot-on. The lamb biryani was perfectly spiced and aromatic, with tender, melt-in-your-mouth lamb and fluffy, fragrant rice. The chicken tikka was juicy, beautifully marinated, and had that perfect smoky char—truly some of the best I’ve ever had. The bread was soft, warm, and fresh, pairing perfectly with the dishes. Even after the drive home, everything tasted like it had just come out of the kitchen. What really stands out is the care and pride the team puts into their food. The owner is genuinely kind, approachable, and clearly passionate about making customers happy. It’s rare to find someone who listens to feedback and responds with such excellence. This place serves authentic, delicious Indian/Pakistani cuisine with heart. They’ve more than earned back my trust—I’ll be ordering again very soon. Thank you for a wonderful meal and for being so wonderful to deal with! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

MashaAllah, this is one of the best restaurants in the Bay Area. it's my #1 pick when I want to eat out . They have good customer service, good varieties of dishes, good price, I usually get biriyani but today I tried the lamb shank with rice, MashaAllah it was very good, the rice is a little bit sweet because of the resins so if you like sweet you will definitely love it.

I’ve been in Oakland for weeks, exploring all the local halal eateries, and nothing compares to the incredible flavors at Biryani Tika Kabab (برياني تكا كباب حلال) on 14th Street. If you’re craving genuinely authentic Pakistani cuisine, look no further—this place is an absolute gem! First off, the food here is outstanding. I ordered the biryani and chicken makhni, requesting a spicy kick, and both dishes exceeded my expectations. The biryani was perfectly cooked, aromatic, and flavorful, each bite delivering an authentic taste that immediately reminded me of home. The chicken makhni was beautifully spiced, rich, and creamy, with just the right amount of heat. Every dish felt freshly prepared, bursting with authentic spices, and balanced perfectly in terms of flavor and texture. Beyond the food, what truly made the experience special was the warm welcome and friendly atmosphere. The host, currently preparing for the USMLE, was incredibly personable and attentive, ensuring we were comfortable and satisfied throughout our meal. The place itself is impressively clean, adding to the overall pleasant dining experience. Having tried numerous halal restaurants around town during my stay, I confidently say that nothing else matches the quality and taste found here. The authenticity is evident from the first bite, reflecting genuine Pakistani culinary traditions. Whether you’re a local resident or just passing through, Biryani Tika Kabab is a must-visit. It stands out not only for its superb taste but also for its hospitality and cleanliness. This is unquestionably my top recommendation in Oakland for anyone seeking delicious, halal Pakistani food. Trust me—you’ll leave delighted and eager to return!
