Our story

Built on taste. Kept by a family.

AHMEDIA HOTEL was founded in 1975 by LATE JANAB AHMED BASHA SAHIB, who prioritized exceptional taste and quality from day one. Every dish, especially our signature biryani, is crafted using premium ingredients, authentic masala blends, the finest Basmati rice, and top-grade meat.

Our iconic biryani’s flavor has stood the test of time. The founder’s secret recipes and cooking techniques have been carefully passed down through generations, ensuring that AHMEDIA BIRYANI remains as rich, flavorful, and unforgettable today as it was 50 years ago.

Consistency and excellence define AHMEDIA HOTEL. Celebrated across South India and honored with the National Award for Excellence in Traditional Biryani in New Delhi, we continue to serve our biryani with passion — to make your day better, one plate at a time. الحمد لله, our journey goes on, and AHMEDIA remains a cherished hidden gem of our little town.
