Had breakfast at Charminar and loved it dosa was crispy and the chutneys tasted fresh and authentic. The place has a really nice, calm ambience and feels clean and welcoming. Grabbed biryani to go too, and even the takeout packaging was solid and well done.

Visit 2: tried the goat haleem this time and it’s amazing. Perfectly cooked. Usually I don’t review the places much but I wanted to give it a review because I liked the place and people here. The ambience is great here with good interiors and the lighting is great not like other Indian restaurants. Another best part is I see lot of non Indians here enjoying good time unlike other Indian restaurants. Coming to the food, their tangdi kabob starters and dum ka chicken and malai kofta entrees with garlic naan and it’s the best kebob i ever had in the Atlanta metro. My kids loved the malai kofta. We will be back soon to try other items in the menu.

We came in with a large group of 8, and the service handled our variety of orders perfectly. We tried everything from chicken appetizers and Biryani to Haleem and Tandoori Chai. I personally had the Lasuni Soya Chaap and the Hyderabadi Spicy Dosa, both of which were excellent. The Soya Chaap was easily the highlight of the day - so much so that I grabbed an extra order to go for my wife, and she loved it just as much! Highly recommend for anyone looking for authentic flavors and great variety

Very delicious and authentic hyderabadi goat dum biryani. The ambience was great too. I also ordered chicken 65, haleem and achari mutton. They were great, although haleem could have been better. Great experience, will definitely visit again for the biryani!

After trying so many restaurants in Dallas, I happen to visit Alpharetta Charminar, and wow — this Chicken 65 is absolutely keka! Perfectly crispy, super juicy, and coated with amazing masala. The spice level is full on mass, just like authentic Chicken 65 should be. Totally paisa vasool and 100% worth the trip from Dallas!

Absolutely loved the dum ka keema and mutton biryani here. The keema was slow-cooked to perfection—rich, aromatic, and packed with traditional spices without being overpowering. The mutton biryani was equally impressive: tender meat, perfectly layered rice, and that authentic dum flavor that’s hard to find. You can truly taste the freshness and care in the cooking. A must-visit for anyone who appreciates real Hyderabadi-style flavors

We had the chicken tikka masala. We asked for the naan bread to be extra crispy and it was magnificent! The rise was perfect and it even smelled amazing. There was a lot of chicken with the perfect amount of spice and the flavor was next level perfect perfection! And the atmosphere is very sophisticated and beautiful. The music was a wonderful addition it was very relaxing and soothing.

We have always tried the to go food from here and it was our first time dining in. The staff is really friendly and they try to accommodate most of the requests. We tried haleem here, it was good but felt like it was a little pricy and surprisingly they have rumali roti and it’s a must try. We also got apricot delight, it was decent but it was too sweet to my liking.
