So far it is just the Indians especially the Hyderabadis talking of dishes from their part of their world. Tastes differ from region to region. Deccan Dewaan's biryani may taste good to S Indians or the Hyderabadis, but it does not satisfy the taste of people from north India or from W Bengal where Biryanis are cooked in totally a different manner and thus they carry a different taste and aroma. I did not like the biryani at Deccan Deewan. One famous dish from Hyderabad is Bagharay Baigan which I guess Deccan Deewan does not make. Almost adjacent to the above is the Zoaq restaurant where the food is much better. No one appears to have mentioned this restaurant so far.
I give just 3* to Deccan Deewan.
