Srinivasa Biryani Restaurant

Srinivasa Biryani Restaurant is on Durgaiah Street in Governerpet. The exact door number is 27-19-51. If you find the Big Bazar lane, we are right there opposite to it. Vijayawada is a hot city, and our kitchen makes it even hotter. We start the fires early to get the big handis ready. You can hear the sound of the heavy lids clanking and the scrap of the metal ladles. It’s a noisy street, so there’s always the sound of horns and people shouting outside. We have a few tables inside, but they are pretty basic with plastic chairs. The walls have some old pictures and a calendar that’s usually a month behind. Our staff is just a few local guys who know how to handle the lunch rush. In 520002, people really like their spices, so we go through a lot of chillies every week. Sometimes the floor gets a bit greasy from the steam, so we have to be careful. We don't have a website or any of those things. Most people just find us because they smell the food while walking to the bazaar. It’s not a fancy dining hall. It’s just a place to sit down, eat quickly, and get back to your work. We keep the water jars filled and the fans running as fast as they can go. It gets sweaty and loud, but that is the way a biryani shop works.
