If you’re a biryani lover, this place is a must try! The biryani is packed with rich, aromatic flavours and cooked to perfection. Every bite is full of spice and depth. The customer service is excellent. Tried the shahi buriyani, chicken tikka and achari. All were great.

Excellent food, service, and atmosphere. Was my first time trying Indian cuisine and I couldn’t get enough of it! Also had the samosas which were HUGE, filling, and tasty. Will definitely be back if I’m in the area :)

Amazing place for Indian cuisine. Price was very reasonable for the portion size you receive. Would highly recommend the butter chicken as it is super tender and falls apart in the bowl. Really lovely service and great people to talk to. 10/10 would come again.

Im new to the area and decided to try this spot. I got the veggie Thali with chana mandala, dal mahkni and rajma. The food was fresh, spicy and delicious. The price was reasonable and I would definitely return to try the remainder of the menu.

If you grew up eating authentic Indian food like me, you’d love Student Tasty Biryani. I had their Dum Biryani and Chicken Curry - both were seasoned and cooked to perfection. I love how they both came with huge chunks of tender chicken pieces; spiced just enough to also be able to enjoy its other rich ingredients. The quantity definitely didn’t disappoint too! For the price, it was so worth the visit. Shoutout to Noor for providing really great customer service. Student Tasty Biryani’s definitely one for the books. Would order again.

Tasty Student Biryani in Courtice, ON, is an exceptional culinary destination that delivers both authentic flavour and heartfelt hospitality. As someone who appreciates genuine South Asian cuisine, I was thoroughly impressed by the depth of taste, the generous portions, and the consistent quality across the menu. The highlight of the experience was, without question, their signature biryani. It was perfectly cooked – the rice fluffy and aromatic, the spices well-balanced, and the meat tender and infused with flavour. Whether chicken, beef, or vegetable, each variation held its own charm and was clearly prepared with care and expertise. The accompanying raita and salad were fresh and complemented the dish beautifully. Beyond the food, the ambiance of the restaurant is modest but welcoming, with a clean, comfortable setting that is ideal for both quick lunches and casual dinners. The staff were polite, courteous, and eager to ensure we had a positive experience. Their knowledge of the menu and willingness to accommodate special requests added a personalized touch that is rare to find in similar establishments. What sets Tasty Student Biryani apart is its commitment to authenticity and value. The pricing is reasonable, especially considering the portion sizes and the quality of ingredients used. It's clear that this restaurant is not only catering to students on a budget but to anyone looking for a satisfying, flavourful meal that captures the essence of traditional South Asian cooking. In short, Tasty Student Biryani is a standout addition to the local dining scene in Courtice. I highly recommend it to anyone craving genuine biryani or desi comfort food done right. I will undoubtedly be returning – and next time, I plan to explore more of their extensive menu offerings.
