At NTR Biryani, we bring the flavors of home — India's diverse culture expressed through South Indian cuisine. Our unique and exquisite Indian flavors carry your tastebuds from the plains to the coasts of Andhra and South Tamil Nadu, and everywhere in between.
Our mission is to serve exquisite, authentic South Indian cuisine to San Francisco and beyond — representing our culture and the legendary culinary heritage of Telugu traditions in every dish we offer.
Our highly experienced chef-owner and family opened NTR Biryani at the corner of Valencia and Mission — bringing the best to the table using authentic, home-made ingredients and the freshest produce to create heavenly aromatic and robust recipes.
Come join us, and indulge in food that makes your home feel close.
