The Gongura Paneer Biryani is an absolute revelation, bursting with a symphony of flavors that dance on your palate with each delightful bite. The harmonious blend of tangy gongura leaves and creamy paneer envelops your senses, delivering a robust, spicy experience that’s truly captivating. Complement this fiery delight with just the right amount of cooling raita to turn every forkful into a heavenly indulgence. If you’re reading this review, take it as a divine sign: this biryani isn’t just a meal; it’s an emotional journey. Treat yourself to this masterpiece, and let your taste buds revel in the bliss of exquisite flavors.

The gongura chicken is so damm good. The spice level is just perfect. Its gonnna burn , but you can also taste the food. I have been trying this type of briyani all over the u.s and yet i have not come close to how this restaurant makes this special dish. A must try if your in the bay area… !!!!

Ordered for catering! Not cheap but really excellent food. Chapatis were really very soft and hand made so not like the ones that come out of machine that looks and feels like a cardboard!! Unsure about how good the buffet is but it it is like the food for catering, pretty sure you won't be disappointed!

Excellent South Indian based Indian Origin restaurant in Sunnyvale California USA. Their menu has both South Indian as well as North Indian dishes with starters, deserts and alcohols too with main course. Tried their Mirchi Bajji (chilli pakodas type) it was just simply awesome your can try that. Unmissable is fry piece prawn biriyanis with Coke which was delicious and yummy. Garlic Naan and butter Naan with paneer mirchi salyan was bit spicy but authentic taste. Finally done with tea and sweet paan. We tried their Gongura chicken and donne biriyanis (bought home packed) dishes awesome. Didn't try their desserts, should be excellent as well. They have door dash and Uber deliveries also. Will definitely visit again.
I am not sure how people hate biryanis at this place, we frequently come to this place after traveling 35 minutes just to eat biryanis for lunch.I would recommend gongura chicken biryani which is on the spicy side, gongoura mutton has similar flavors but isn't as softly cooked but a good change once in a while. Chicken dum biryani is pretty good as well, filled with thick curry masala medium spicy flavors.

Everything was up-to par in Sankranti. Everyone working there was very friendly to me. I went to the buffet today and had all the delicious and fresh food made by them. Every single food tasted good and made me felt full and happy when I came out. Also, they have single items like Biryani and South Indian food. Everything is top notch there.Kid-friendliness: Kids were also eating there and having fun.
THIS PLACE IS AMAZING! I COME HERE AS OFTEN AS POSSIBLE! I found it a long while ago, I can’t stop going since I found it! It was seriously delicious. I bring all my friends and family here. Literally so good!In the photo attached was a pic of my family and friends having eaten every single dish to completion!!! It went so fast!! So tasty!Vegetarian options: HALF THE MENU IS VEGETARIAN!!

Whoever is putting the eggs in biryani, please check if the eggs are fresh or not! The egg I got is days old after boiling! My stomach gave out instant vomit sensation the monent i put it in my mouth. Someone is gonna seriously fall ill with the food these people are serving! If you want health, please avoid this place. Worst biryani ever.

Sankranti: A Weekend Feast at an Unbeatable PriceTucked away in a Sunnyvale strip mall, Sankranti isn't much to look at from the outside. But step inside, and you're greeted by a warm atmosphere and an incredible spread of food that's sure to leave you satisfied, especially if you visit on a weekend.The star of the show here is their weekend lunch buffet, a steal at only $18.99. With this price tag, you might expect a limited selection, but Sankranti goes above and beyond. They offer a mind-boggling variety of dishes, catering to all appetites.The lunch buffet itself includes four delicious breakfast items, so you can indulge in a morning favorite alongside a full lunch spread.And a vast selection of vegetarian and non-vegetarian options. Six veggie curries ensure there's something for every palate, from mild to spicy. Three types of rice provide the perfect base for soaking up all the delicious flavors.But Sankranti doesn't stop there. Meat lovers will rejoice with a selection of five non-vegetarian options, including chicken, mutton, and fish. And no Indian buffet is complete without biryani, a flavorful rice dish. Here, you get not one, but two biryanis to choose from!After indulging in the savory options, don't forget to visit the dessert counter. Three sweet treats will tempt you, the perfect ending to a delightful meal.And here's the kicker: the buffet also includes naan, chaat, curd (yogurt), and believe it or not, even beer! At this price point, it's an incredible value.Sankranti might not be a fancy fine-dining establishment, but it offers a true feast for the senses. With its wide variety of dishes, friendly service, and unbeatable price, it's a hidden gem in Sunnyvale that deserves to be discovered...especially on a weekend!
