Hyderabadi lamb biryani
Lamb and basmati layered and sealed, with saffron, mint and coriander.
Authentic Indian and Hyderabadi food in Chelmsford
We started cooking from our home kitchen in 2020 and we have been on Moulsham Street ever since. Hyderabadi dum biryani, dosas off the griddle, haleem cooked down slowly. Dine in with us, or take it home.
On authenticity
We source our spices directly from the markets of India.
That is the whole of it, really. We are from Hyderabad, we cook the food we grew up on, and we do not soften it to suit anyone. The biryani is layered and sealed. The gongura mutton uses proper sour sorrel leaves. The dosa batter is fermented, not mixed to order.
Moulsham Street got the first Curry Point in Chelmsford because we could not find this food in Essex, so we cooked it ourselves.

Before you visit
Questions we get asked
Where can I park near the restaurant?
There is on-street parking along Moulsham Street, and further parking a short walk away in Chelmsford town centre. Spaces on the street are limited on Friday and Saturday evenings, so allow a little extra time.
Can I book a table?
Yes. Call us on 01245 561074 and we will hold a table for you — that is the fastest way to get an answer. You can also email contact@tituskitchen.com, though for a table on the same day please ring. For larger groups it is worth calling a few days ahead.
Do you cater for large groups and events?
We do. Birthdays, weddings and corporate events across Chelmsford and Essex, with menus built around what you want to serve. We can also supply chafing dishes and waiting staff. See our catering options.
Do you have vegetarian and vegan dishes?
Plenty. South Indian cooking is vegetarian by default in a lot of places, so the dosas, the vada, the dals and the vegetable curries are all there. Vegetarian dishes are marked V and vegan dishes VG on the menu.
Do you have gluten-free dishes?
Yes, and they are marked GF on the menu. Dosas, biryanis and most of our curries are made without wheat flour. Please tell a member of the team about any allergy before you order, as our kitchen handles gluten and other allergens.
Do you deliver?
Order on our ordering site and you will see collection and delivery options at checkout. You can also call the restaurant to arrange a collection.
