For food lovers , away from India ( especially missing Hyderabad cuisine ) Biryani Pot is a blessing . Amazing food , good taste , excellent quality and amazing owner . Subbu is humble , gentle , ready to listen to his customers, customize food spice level, go above and beyond to satisfy your palate. Even his delivery timing and promptness is praiseworthy. We ordered food for small family gathering as well as on a large community program , in both the situations taste and quantity was unbelievable. We should support and encourage these type of local entrepreneurs, who are trying their best to keep Hyderabadi cuisine alive outside of India .

Tried biryani for the first time and it was fantastic! Unfortunately, the second time (very light and chicken skin peeled off) didn’t quite live up to the first—hoping for more consistency.

The food was delicious, but too spicy. Even though I ordered it mild, mild, mild, it was too hot for most of my family. They kindly gave extra plain rice and yogurt to cool things down. If you love spicy food, this is your place. If your taste buds are not quite that strong, I would choose another place.

Since 2023 I’ve been a regular customer. Weekly once or monthly twice. They never disappointed in taste. It’s a small takeaway restaurant with good Briyani. Chicken 65 Briyani and mutton Briyani is and will be my favourite.

One of the best biryanis I’ve had in years packed with rich, authentic flavour. The Hyderabadi Chicken Dum is a standout, and the Pepper Chicken Fry pairs perfectly with it. Truly gives you the feel of a traditional South Indian biryani experience. Note: It’s strictly takeout only, and parking can be tricky best to find a spot behind the restaurant.
