If you are a Biryani lover (specially with a love for the Mughlai blend) or if you like Kolkata style - hot kati rolls - you HAVE to try Lazeez. Ideally located in Koramangala (in 5th Block just near the old Infosys building or near Casa Picola) - this restaurant even seems to have picked up the culture from Kolkata's mughlai restaurants!
Try Chicken/Mutton biryani if you are a good eater but if you really want to pamper your stomach - go for the Mughlai Chicken/Mutton biryani - its got the additional potato/egg in it which is quite filling. You can always have a chanp with the biryani. The rolls are made with maida parathas that are literally "floating" in oil so only have it if you can take in all the calories :) But the taste is fantastic. For the veggies - there are aloo, paneer rolls and for the meat lovers - there is every possible variety right upto double chicken double egg roll. The kebabs are very heavy and serve good portions. The curries have generous portions of oil so watch out. They seem to have realized this recently and during the last couple of months - I have noticed that the biryani is not shining because of excess oil (or ghee) but has the same good taste as it always did.
Ambience - its quite ordinary and a typical Kolkata Mughlai restaurant. This is not for a stylish family outing but for simple eating. I like to get food parcelled (they even have home delivery now) and relax at home. If you know the joy of coffee at coffee house - then you will know what I am talking about for ambience! Needless to say - this is not the place to go for expecting high end service.
Style - 1 star
Will I go there again? - I prefer home delivery
Meal for 2 - Rs 350
