Last Saturday, we had the pleasure of dining at Bircos, a modern Indian restaurant that my husband recently discovered. He had visited Bircos with his friends and was very impressed with the food. We were in for a real treat, and the evening turned out to be a memorable culinary experience.
Bircos offers a contemporary twist on traditional Indian cuisine, and we were excited to try some of their specialties. My husband, who always has a keen sense for good food, took charge of ordering a lovely spread for us to share. The meal started with chicken biryani rice, a fragrant and flavorful dish that set the tone for the rest of the evening. The rice was cooked to perfection, with tender pieces of flavorful chicken hidden within, each bite bursting with aromatic spices.
Next up were the fish tacos, a delightful fusion dish that combined the rich flavors of Indian spices with the lightness of fresh fish. The tacos were a refreshing contrast to the other dishes, offering a unique and modern take on Indian cuisine. The cheese naan was another highlight, its warm, buttery layers filled with gooey, melted cheese, making it an irresistible accompaniment to the curries.
One of our all-time favorite dishes, the Palak Paneer, did not disappoint. The creamy spinach sauce, perfectly spiced and balanced, was the ideal backdrop for the soft, succulent cubes of paneer. We also savored the butter chicken masala (another favorite Indian dish of ours), a rich and creamy dish that was both comforting and satisfying. The chicken was tender, and the sauce had just the right amount of sweetness and spice.
The mutton vindaloo was another standout, offering a spicier kick that my husband particularly enjoyed. The mutton was cooked until tender, and the fiery vindaloo sauce was full of bold, intense flavors that lingered pleasantly on the palate. Cass requested the Punjabi samosa, a crispy, golden pastry filled with a spiced potato mixture that was simply delightful. The Methi Paratha bread added a touch of earthy flavor to the meal, its subtle bitterness from the fenugreek and other herby flavors balancing the richness of the other dishes.
Unfortunately, Sherilyn couldn’t join us again as she had dance rehearsals that evening. However, we ordered an extra portion of Palak Paneer for her to enjoy later, knowing how much she loves it. The servings at Bircos were generous, and despite our best efforts, we couldn’t finish all the rotis. We gladly had them doggy-bagged home, extending our delicious dinner to the next day.
The prices at Bircos were reasonable, especially considering the high quality of the food. The restaurant’s ambiance was warm and inviting, and the waiting staff were exceptionally helpful, making our dining experience even more enjoyable.
Bircos has definitely earned a spot on our list of favorite restaurants, and we look forward to returning soon to explore more of their modern Indian creations. Whether you’re a fan of traditional Indian dishes or curious about innovative takes on familiar flavors, Bircos is a must-visit.
