We sauté fresh veggies, caramelize onions till golden, and layer everything with love—just like it’s done in the kitchens of Hyderabad and Lucknow. The result? Every bite is aromatic, deeply spiced, and layered like a memory from home. No bottled sauces. No frozen fillers. Just old-school technique, modern freshness, and soul.
We’re proud to offer biryani for every diet—because no one should miss out on great Indian food.

Forget factory-made sauces and reheated bulk rice. At Surya Veg n Dosa Company, we grind our own masalas, chop our vegetables fresh daily, and prepare biryani batch by batch with care.
> Our saffron is hand-bloomed in warm milk.
> Our chutneys are ground each morning using fresh mint, cilantro, and lime.

It’s labor-intensive, but that’s what makes our biryani different. Every dish is a reflection of home-style Indian cooking—where flavor takes time, and every spoonful tastes like someone cares.

Not all biryani is created equal—and at Surya Veg n Dosa Company, we take our layers seriously. Here’s what sets our biryani apart from the rest in Massachusetts:
🍚 Aged Basmati Rice Only
We use extra-long grain basmati rice aged for over a year. This ensures fluffiness, aroma, and zero stickiness—each grain stays separate and soaks up the masala beautifully.
🌿 Handmade Masala & Fried Onions
Our biryani masala is ground fresh from whole spices like star anise, cardamom, and cloves. We also hand-fry our onions daily for that classic sweetness and depth found in real dum biryani.
🧈 Ghee Tempering & Saffron Infusion
Instead of artificial color, we bloom saffron threads in warm milk to tint the rice golden. A final ghee drizzle adds aroma and richness you can smell before your first bite.
🔥 Skillet‑Cooked & Layered, Not Stirred
We follow the traditional dum method—layering rice, veggies, and protein, then cooking them together so the flavors infuse naturally. No shortcuts, no pre-mixed rice bowls.
“The Vegetable Hyderabadi Biryani took me straight back to the wedding feasts of Hyderabad. The aroma of saffron hit me the second I opened the box. Each grain was fluffy, fragrant, and spiced to perfection. The cucumber raita added that essential cooling balance. I ordered it during a rainy evening in Cambridge—it arrived piping hot in under 40 minutes. Total comfort food delivered with care.”
“I follow a strict vegan diet, and let me say—the Plant-Based Chicken Biryani is a revelation. It’s spicy, hearty, and packed with flavor. The soy-based protein was surprisingly juicy, and the vegan mint chutney added a tangy finish. Delivery was quick, and the heat-retaining packaging meant I didn’t have to reheat. Easily my go-to for Friday nights.”
“The Paneer Tawa Pulao is my study session savior. The paneer was seared to a golden crisp, and the rice was buttery and loaded with veggies like bell peppers and peas. It reminds me of Mumbai street food—only cleaner and delivered right to my door. Consistently fresh and still steaming when it arrives. I keep ordering it every week!”
“I’ve eaten biryani from almost every Indian spot in Cambridge, but Surya’s Hyderabadi Biryani is on another level. The layering of spices is subtle but deeply satisfying. No greasiness, no dryness—just moist, perfectly seasoned basmati rice with tender vegetables. The leak-proof packaging is a huge bonus for someone who eats at his desk. Five stars all the way.”
“Ordered the vegan biryani for a small dinner party—and it was the star of the night! Even my friends who usually prefer meat couldn’t stop raving about it. The flavors were bold and smoky, the texture was spot-on, and the eco-conscious delivery container felt premium. We’ll definitely be ordering again for our next get-together.”
“After a long workday pitching investors, the Paneer Tawa Pulao is my reward. It’s luxurious, filling, and feels like gourmet Indian comfort food. Delivered hot, with that amazing buttery aroma still trapped in the box—it’s indulgent without being heavy. It travels well, tastes fresh, and never disappoints.”
“”Finding a gluten-free, nut-free Indian biryani that my kids love? Impossible—until Surya. Their Veg Biryani is flavorful, mildly spiced, and packed with veggies. My kids adore the cucumber raita, and I appreciate the allergy-safe kitchen. It arrives fresh, labeled with clear ingredients, and it’s become our Sunday night tradition.”
“Honestly, I didn’t expect a vegan biryani in Cambridge to rival what I’ve had in NYC—but Surya crushed it. The ‘chicken’ is tender and flavorful, the rice is fluffy and fiery, and that chutney? Pure magic. Delivered in just 35 minutes, still warm and aromatic. This is gourmet vegan comfort, no question.”
“I keep a Paneer Tawa Pulao in my weekly meal rotation. It’s lunchbox-friendly, reheats beautifully, and doesn’t leave me sluggish. The portion is generous, the flavors are layered and rich, and it still tastes freshly made—even hours later. It’s my power lunch during back-to-back Zoom days.”
“Being on the road all day, I’ve had my share of biryanis—but Surya’s consistently surprises me. I’ve tried all three: Veg Biryani, Paneer Pulao, and Vegan Chicken Biryani. Each one delivers a distinct flavor profile. What impresses me most is the packaging—always sealed tight, labeled well, and warm upon arrival. Even as someone who delivers food, I trust them every time I want a quality meal.”
