Across the bustling streets of Hyderabad and the peaceful towns of Andhra Pradesh, a remarkable culinary tradition has blossomed over the past four decades. Deeply rooted in family values and regional pride, this journey captivates food lovers with authentic Andhra cuisine’s bold, rich flavours. At the heart of this legacy stands Srikanya Comfort, a proudly family-owned fine-dining chain where food is a sacred responsibility. Every dish reflects generations of tradition, uncompromising quality, and heartfelt service, creating not just meals but meaningful experiences that guests cherish and return to, time and again.
This family restaurant traces its origins back to 1975. What began as a humble vegetarian eatery by Peddi Raju has now blossomed into a beloved culinary destination across Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, known for its authentic Andhra cuisine and heartfelt service.
The journey began with a simple goal, which is to serve honest, delicious food with warmth and integrity. Over time, as the family gained experience and learned more about the preferences of their patrons, the vision evolved. A new restaurant, Srikanya, was launched with a focus on non-vegetarian Andhra specialties. It quickly became popular for its bold flavours and uncompromising quality. Encouraged by this success, the family introduced ‘Srikanya Comfort’, a fine-dining experience that preserved the same authenticity but with a renewed focus on ambiance, comfort, and hospitality.
Today, Srikanya Comfort stands tall not just for its culinary excellence, but also for the values it upholds. Quality, hygiene, and customer satisfaction are not just standards, they are a way of life. Each dish is crafted with care, using time-honoured recipes passed down through generations, especially from the East Godavari region.
From the fiery Kodi Pulav to the unique Mango Mutton Curry, every bite tells a story of heritage and regional pride. Among its signature offerings, the Fry Piece Biryani reigns supreme, aromatic bagara rice served with spiced chicken fry, a combination that has won the hearts of thousands. Another favourite is Chicken RR, an in-house fusion that reflects the brand’s ability to innovate while staying rooted in tradition.
Rooted in Values & Growing with Purpose
One of the most unique aspects of Srikanya Comfort is its hands-on management. Each branch is directly run by a core family member, ensuring consistency, care, and personal accountability. Srinivasa Raju leads the KPHB branch in Hyderabad, Venu Gopal manages the Somajiguda outlet, and Sitarama Raju oversees the Rajahmundry operations. “Our family-first approach has allowed the brand to grow steadily without compromising its values. In an industry where expansion often dilutes identity, our fine-dining eatery stands out as a true example of what a family-run restaurant chain can achieve”, says Pardha Saradhi Varma, Partner, Srikanya Comfor
Over the years, the restaurant has marked several key milestones. From serving small-town families in Andhra Pradesh to earning loyal patrons in Hyderabad, it has grown into a cherished destination. For many, Srikanya Comfort is more than just a dining spot, it’s a place filled with emotion, tradition, and lasting memories. Complementing the restaurant experience, they offer banquet halls for large events and private dining rooms for intimate gatherings. It also provides takeaway services and full-scale outdoor catering, bringing authentic Andhra flavours wherever they’re needed.

Challenges Met with Heart & Leadership
Urban dining often comes with the headache of parking, but Srikanya Comfort has this well covered. The KPHB branch, located in a spacious mall, boasts over 1 lakh sq. ft. of parking, making visits stress-free, even during peak hours. The restaurant also blends tradition with technology seamlessly. While the kitchen is steeped in ancestral recipes and time-honoured methods, front-end operations benefit from modern tools like food delivery apps, digital reservation systems, and real-time customer feedback platforms.
Hygiene has always been a cornerstone of Srikanya Comfort’s ethos, but in a post-pandemic world, it has become an even more stringent priority. Every aspect, from kitchen practices to food presentation, follows enhanced standards. As diners increasingly crave authentic, regional cuisine over generic fare, this restaurant finds itself right where it belongs, serving meals that feel like home. Yet, the journey has not been without challenges. Managing unchanging quality across locations and meeting high expectations remains demanding. But by ensuring each branch is run by a dedicated family member, the brand has preserved its values while delivering a consistent, top-tier experience.
Most importantly, to maintain consistency and quality in every serving. All masalas used in Srikanya Comfort’s biryanis are precisely measured and hygienically packed at their facility before being delivered to the restaurant.
Future Rooted in Values
The feedback from patrons continues to inspire the team. One customer raved, ‘Best chicken fry piece biryani in Hyderabad’, while another praised, ‘Tried Bommidala Pulusu and Mango Mutton Curry, both were fantastic.’ Families also appreciate the kid-friendly approach, as dishes can be customized to suit younger palates upon request. Looking ahead, Srikanya Comfort remains focused on preserving what truly matters, which is quality, consistency, and the founding values that built its legacy. Expansion is not pursued for scale alone, but only when it aligns with the brand’s commitment to care and excellence. Every new step is taken with thought and purpose.
In conclusion, Srikanya Comfort is more than a restaurant, it’s a space where memories are made, bonds are strengthened, and tradition is honoured. It’s a family legacy carried forward with pride, one guest, one meal, and one warm smile at a time.
