Editor’s Note
Last updated 21 Jul 2026
We think Koothurar Nasi Briyani is a strong contender for one of Singapore's best Mutton Dum Biryanis, with many reviewers highlighting its moist, fluffy rice and generous, tender mutton portions.
The mutton briyani consistently receives high praise for its flavourful gravy and substantial size, often noted as enough for 3 pax.
The fish briyani also gets a nod for its succulent quality.
However, the chicken briyani can be hit-or-miss, with some finding it a bit hard, though its gravy is still well-regarded.
Expect significant queues, especially during noontime, and be prepared for a small seating area.
There have been isolated reports of miscommunication regarding orders, particularly for takeaways, so it's advisable to confirm inclusions like egg and cucumber.
Overall, the flavour profile is rated highly, often an 8/10.
We recommend going for the Mutton Briyani, but be prepared for a wait and confirm your order carefully, especially for takeaways.

Good, but not worth queuing for more than 10 mins. Fragrant and tasty rice that wasn't very consistent due to some less seasoned chunks here and there. Mutton was good sized and while it was soft, i…
I had heard a lot about this place and had waited a long time to eat their Nasi Biriyani but the wait had always put me off. Today the wait was manageable. The Biriyani was ok I waited for 10 mins. I…
Great biryani in Singapore. If you go there in noontime, then you have to line up. Mutton and fish biryani are the best ones, but I like chicken as well. Extra gravy, egg, and pickles provided add up…
