Ask around for the famous food in Berhampur and biryani comes up first, every time — it's the dish the city plans its weekends around. Bombay Kitchen earned its place in that conversation the hard way: a 4.0-star rating from more than 3,100 Google reviews, built one plate at a time. If you're deciding what's actually worth trying, here's an honest shortlist of the dishes that keep diners coming back.
The one to try first — ghee roast chicken biryani
If you only eat one thing, make it the ghee roast chicken biryani. It's our signature and, as far as we know, the first of its kind in Berhampur: the slow, sealed-pot dum biryani the city already loves, built on tender marinated chicken and finished in pure ghee for a richer, roasted aroma you won't find elsewhere in town.
That's the dish regulars send their friends in for — the easiest answer to "what's famous here?"
What else is worth ordering
A good meal in Berhampur is rarely just one plate. Around the biryani, these are the dishes diners pair it with most:
- Tandoori chicken & kebabs — smoky, marinated and best straight off the clay oven, the table's favourite way to open a meal.
- Butter chicken & North Indian curries — rich, comforting gravies to scoop up with fresh tandoor naan.
- Indo-Chinese — chilli chicken, manchurian and Hakka noodles in the bold, saucy style Berhampur orders by the plate.
- Mutton & classic chicken biryani — the weekend heavyweights, for when the ghee roast isn't the only biryani on the table.
Why these dishes earned the reputation
Famous food isn't about one glossy photo — it's about thousands of ordinary meals getting it right. More than 3,100 Google reviews at a 4.0 average is the kind of track record you can check for yourself, and it's why Bombay Kitchen comes up when people ask where to eat in Berhampur and Brahmapur.
It stays genuinely budget-friendly, too — around Rs 350 for two — so the famous plate is also the everyday one.
