Reviews for UlavacharU Indian Restaurant in Sunnyvale, CA

Loved it. Unlimited buffet for $20. My favorite was Gobi 65. Gobi Manchurian is very common while Gobi 65 is not. I was glad to... find it here. And I was sold when I saw curd(yogurt) prepared in a mud pot. The curd had a nice hay touch to it. You have greatvegetarian and vegan options here. The custard was very good. Filling meal! Parking might be difficult if there are any events.Otherwise, it should be good. Read more

Good place.. they recently did some renovation work so it Looks good now. It's not fancy like other banquet hall, But it's very... reasonable and food is great. You can not be wrong to book this place for your party. Read more

Found foil paper piece in my paneer biryani. Also the taste was weird. It seems they are adding Chinese sauces in the biryani.

Joy of eating a good South-Indian Thali! What amazing food, great service and excellent location with sufficient parking. The... Thali was to die for, and full of flavors that just kept building up. And the Shahi Tukada (Indian Bread Pudding) at the end wasthe finale this meal deserved! Can't wait to come back for some more :) Read more

I walked in here after seeing a YouTube review from a food show and was already to order. When lo and behold I was told this... location does not serve dosas etc...The location on the YouTube review was 2 to 3 miles down the street another branch... SinceI was already here and eat Non vegetarian too I decided to eat lunch here. I quickly looked up the reviews for this location andwas not impressed. They were not good..... I looked at the Menu and decided to order anyways...The waiter was not friendly atall. I saw the cashier walk by so I asked her what should I eat. She suggested Vijaywada Chicken biryani. I generally preferGoat over Chicken. She said it did not come in the Vijaywada style so I ordered the Chicken. For appetizer I ordered thePunkulu... Result.... The Biryani was delicious so yumm6 the meat was succulent and soft. The Punkulu was great too for asnack. A must visit place for Indian food lovers. I have to add although the waiter was not good the server, the man who got thefood from the kitchen was super friendly and nice. He even talked to me about the different dishes and which one is a must try.His name is Ernesto...ask for him if you need suggestions! The menu does not have the right prices. I paid $3 more than what themenu said Enjoy Read more

Went after reading reviews and rest is below. Ordered three items Gobi Manchuria and chicken dum biryani & thumbs up. Only thing... tasted good was the thumbs-up Gobi Manchuria was so sweet, felt like the queen bee just flew out of the plate with herarmy. Lastly the biriyani, frankly I'm still in shock. No flavor no salt burnt spices it was just good looking. Tasteless,soulless felt like I met my ex boss. Egg on the biriyani was right out of the refrigerator, cold as my wife's heart Read more

A quick huddle with a group of friends and we ended up deciding to grab a bite at Ulavacharu. Drive in their and found a... convenient parking spot right outside. They do have a buffet option though the time we arrived in, they were only serving the ala carte menu. We started off with Punukulu and long fin tilapia for our starters ( couldn't grab pictures in time ) along withthe sauce that is served with Punukulu. The fish tasted fresh and was nicely done. Punukulu tasted fresh and good to the palateas well. Moving on to the main course we ended up ordering the Guntur Egg Bhurji, Paneer and Mitch ka salan and Pepperchicken along with garlic and butter naans. To fizz down the spice levels we had to order mango lassis as well along the way. Pardoning the spice level the food tasted decent though there was definite room of improvement in the paneer dish. Egg bhurjicame out a bit dry but was good overall. Pepper chicken was delicious though hot and we had to calm it down with the lassi inalmost every other bite. Overall I would give them a 3.5 to a 4 and recommend them for their a la carte menu. Read more

Some interesting items. Food in general is good but nothing spectacular. The most interesting item was probably the appetizer... which was jalapeno peppers deep fried in chickpea batter (4 stars). Goat Biryani was not that good...dry and plain (2 stars). The chicken dish (forgot the name) was tender and very flavorful (4 stars). Garlic nan was also pretty good (4 stars). Thecurry paneer was a bit on the plain side (3*). Read more
