Review Charminar Biriyanis - Chennai (Madras)

Natheem Irfan
Charminar Biryani Centre - A haven for biryani lovers! Their Chicken Biryani is a must-try in this non-vegetarian paradise. They offer both mutton and chicken biryani, including bucket biryani. While the dine-in space is small and standing-room only, it's fantastic value for money. The area can get quite crowded, so car parking is a challenge, but you'll find 2-wheeler parking nearby. Note: Cash only, no card or online payments. #CharminarBiryani #BiryaniDelight 🚗🍽️

The meat is very tender. The spice is subtle and the entire biriyani is juicy. The flavours are not hard hitting but subtle, cooked in basmati rice almost tangled up with each other

Favorite spot from Child wood. Biryani with reasonable price. Cost photo uploaded on 16th Oct 2023. Taste is ok. but cost effective.

I really want to know that how they make this like delicious foods in meat!! I ordered Tandoori Chicken with Naan. It was Very nice. Taste was Good. But, It's mostly serve delivery only. No enough space for dining here. Curry was little bit more spicy than average. Maiones was not so much good. But okay. They said that It's pure Halal. And accepted online payment.

Chicken Biryani taste is good, but Briyani smell is very less. Chicken Biryani starting rate 70rs. Chicken Tikka semma taste. Self service only and no place to sit. Timing after 6pm only

Already had from this shop before but this time I went personally to feel the vibes of this place. It is located in the busy streets of Royapettah area. Easy to locate though with Google map. Both the sides of the road is having the same shop and selling the same. Basically they are for parcel. A small room is there incase someone wants to eat but have to stand and eat. I took my parcel of Mutton Biryani at 200₹ and also one half biryani at 140₹. I also got a pack of Chicken Tikka at 70₹. Both the foods were so yummy and the price is so reasonable. Very fast service. Available in food delivery apps as well. You go, pay the bill, take the coupon and a wait for a minute for your parcel. I definitely recommend having Biryani from this place. Though it is bit messy but doesn't matter.

Food taste is amazing, don’t miss the Chicken Biryani there and its a pure non-vegetarian hotel, you will not get any veg options there, for Dine-in its a very small place where you have to stand and eat but still its a great Value for money but the area is too crowded, definitely you can’t park your car or even go by car but with some difficulty you will definitely find 2 wheeler parking on road side.
S Prashanth
The shop was small. They had totally three shops nearer. We need to dine by standing, no chairs. If you're ok with it it's a great place. Price was affordable. The rice was well cooked and it tasted great. One of the best biriyani in chennai. They'll accept digital payment only if you had no other go, other then that they prefer cash so keep that also in mind while planning to visit this place. Raita n brinjal gravy was kept at one place you can take as much you want.
Nikhil Abraham
This is one of those places where the chicken biriyani tastes much better than the mutton biriyani. I know, it’s usually the other way around! <br/>Usually super crowded, I remember the first time I ate here. It was incredible! But I tried it today, not sure if the chefs changed or what happened to it. It just seemed like an average biriyani. It’s definitely worth the money you spend though!
Arun Viswanath N
Best briyani in Chennai, I have tasted most hyped places where foodies claim to be the best. But this place is Awesome. Quality-Quantity. If you are a lover of Brinjal curry - this is the place !

It’s probably one of the best Briyani I have had in the recent times. I am quite a finicky person when it comes to Briyani. Don’t like it if it has lots of masala and unwanted stuff in it to give that extra flavour. <br/><br/>Heard about this place and went there for dinner. It’s surely not a place where you can sit and eat with the family. It’s just too crowded and the place is on a very busy road. Park. Parcel and leave is the best way I guess. <br/><br/>But I can surely say that it was well worth the effort. The mutton Briyani was hot. Absolutely perfect 👌🏼 like what you would expect to get from a proper Muslim wedding. The portion is a bit tricky here. Make sure you buy a full. That’s what they call it. The full will be good enough for one person who eats good. <br/><br/>Worthy in every sense and will be on my Briyani places list forever without a doubt.

Pocket friendly , great taste , good quantity. Quite a popular place in the area with good crowd flocking to satisfy their palate.
John Prabs
As an occasional visitor, I took the time to join the feast. Best briyani of all time, all the other briyani centers should take a bow. I have tried briyani's elsewhere and every single rupee which i spent for the chicken briyani was worth it. Too good and definitely meets expectations. Only those who lost their taste senses would write a negative comment..
Imran
My All time favourite with mesmerizing taste.Their briyani vessel says it all,as it keeps get filling round the clock and pocket friendly !!!
Mohammed Tanzeer Shaveez
Lost it's charm, This place ain't like it used to be.
Thillai Eshwaran
I tried the chicken biriyaani... was subtle with gentle flavors. The good thing about this place is that they serve half plate biriyani for 70rupees. Worth a visit!
Praveen
Had traveled all the way from navallur to triplicane to taste this over-hyped biriyani. Mutton biriyani wasnt there and the only choice was chicken biriyani. Have got full chicken biriyani and being in the all day fasting, any biriyani should be the tastiest ever. But it didnt excite to any extent, the biriyani was very very average and the chicken piece was so tender. The brinjal curry they provide was awesome, anyone would die to taste that. They shouldnt call it as full biriyani, as the quantity was very less for so called 'FULL'. <br/>Not much masala, oil, taste. but its worth to taste by the localities and it is not at all worth to taste by travelling a lot.
Ashis Das
Excellent quality and quantity
Mohammed Faisal
One of the best briyani centre’s in Chennai ! I have been eating briyani at this place from last 10 or 12 years and I still the taste hasn’t been changed !
Siva Mani
One of the best biriyani in the city served hot.
Krishnandaya
It's very good biriyani and good taste. Love this biriyani from Charminar
Shanmathi
It was on my bucket list for so long! Finally tried their chicken biriyani 😍 So worth the try. Juicy tasty and perfect hot steaming Biriyani served with the yummiest brinjal curry! Loved every bit of the Biriyani. Rs 120 for a full plate of chicken biriyani. A must try in Chennai ❤️
Andrew Nelson
I tried this place after a lot of buzz in the social media and the hype about the chicken they use for their biriyani. I have tried biriyani from all over Chennai and am writing this review with absolute discontent.<br/><br/>Pro:<br/><br/>Unique chicken used (white leghorn)<br/><br/>Cons:<br/><br/>1. ABSOLUTELY WORST customer service- the guy at the billing counter was extremely rude and offensive.<br/><br/>2. All the types of biriyani are WAY OVERPRICED- believe me if you go to every other famous biriyani joints in and around Chennai you'd get money's worth. Ex: ya mohaideen,sukkubai,Salem rr , ss Hyderabad and so many more<br/><br/>Ok guys.....even if we turn a blind eye to the above two points the next one is unavoidably the worst one.<br/><br/>3. When we were eating A COCKROACH flew onto my friend's shoulder and when we complained about this the workers didn't give a single f**k.<br/><br/>So to conclude DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY by going here when you can eat at many other wonderful places.<br/>
Rk Marrapu
Worst biryani, that is not chicken, cat meat. Don't order any item in this hotel, please, there is no response after that. No taste, just added masala only.
Muthu M
Tasty biriyani. But biriyani serving person having Sore in hand. with the same hand he use to server biriyani. Please avoid this otherwise everything good.
Sathish Balaji
To start with, this is not a typical restaurant. You come here, take your food, eat in a corner and leave. And ofcourse you can have an option of takeaway.<br/><br/>Went on a Saturday evening. Fully packed crowd. There are two centres in the busiest street of Triplicane. On one side, they serve hot plates of chicken, mutton and beef biriyani. On the opposite side, they serve naan, rotis, tandoori and tikka.<br/><br/>We started with a plate of chicken biriyani. The biriyani was very good and the pieces were perfectly cooked. Then we went on to order a haryali tikka along with a naan. We got a thick tomato gravy as a company for the naan. Everything was perfect and we again order a plate of Kuska to complete the meal!<br/><br/>Very very very pocket friendly and total VFM! Need not to say, one of the best biriyanis in the city. Plan your visit as you won't find a good place to park the vehicle but you can sneak in somewhere.
Deepak MR
The rice was less spicy and okay but overall hygiene level was 0. The chicken piece had blood over it and next day I had continuous lose motions. I don't know how so many ppl are writing positive review about this dirty biryani yucks
Pran_eats
After seeing from many youtube videos i went to this place with a really high expectations. But this biriyani was really mild i love spice in my biriyani and taste wise it was good thas it i would say. Worth for 60 rs
Rings Of Kitchen
🍱 Briyani Alert<br/>It was a weekend and we were in a rush to get something for lunch, and came across this place for briyani and being located in prime location you don't get to have a proper parking space rather if you're driving to this place by bike. And the pricings were very much nominal and most importantly the quantity and quality for the price.<br/>Pricing : 4/5<br/>Quantity : 4/5<br/><br/>Rings of Kitchen
Krishnasai Emmidi
Best chicken biryani in Chennai. The rice aroma is heavenly even before eating. No unnecessary masala in biryani. Very economical and the biryani quantity is good.
Arthi
One of the iconic places in the town for biryani..<br/>Small out let.. no seating.. A plate of mutton biryani with two pieces of mutton ND egg costs Rs100.. accompaniments raitha ND brinjal curry . Biryani was full of flavours with long grain basmati rice , soft and succulent pieces of mutton.. will definitely be in my repeated list..
Sakthi Priya
Recently tasted their Mutton briyani that definitely need to be rated by briyani lovers once. Not supportive for dining, take away is advisable and can be enjoyed thoroughly at your place..
Vignesh Rohin
superb briyani.... but little quantity😢<br/>shop at traffic place.. you cant park even your bike here... chicken or mutton this is best... you can't sit and eat here..
Bharath Doraiswamy
So after hearing lot of reviews by almost all youtube food reviewers, I ordered chicken biriyani via swiggy for 180rs. It was neatly packed with brinjal, pachaddi and bread halwa. I personally thought that biriyani was not spicy enough. It was like the biriyani was taken from top of the drum without mixing fully. The uppu/ karam factor was also missing.<br/><br/>May be because I had major hopes about the biriyani, I was disappointed when it was not towards my liking. On the other hand, the bread halwa was very nice and tasty.

Being an erstwhile Biriyani fanatic, Charminar biriyani was in my bookmark quite some time. Got an opportunity to step in for a dinner on a busy Saturday eve.<br/>Its located in Royapettah, adjacent to the bridge after new college and near to meesapet market. This is one of the oldest biriyani outlets in Chennai, and it’s very much active more than 35 years.<br/>The road leading to this is outlet is always packed n bustled, so don’t ever ever have a thought of parking. I parked my car quite some where ahead and the same for 2 wheelers. <br/>I wanted to taste their chicken biriyani, as I have heard my fellow foodies heaping laurels on chicken biriyani than their mutton. Went for a full plate chicken 🍗 biriyani accompanied by egg 🥚, brinjal gravy and raitha.<br/>Now coming to their biriyani, it was bloody scrumptious. The masala was quite minimal, less oily and the meat was so tender and succulent. And above all it tasted so damn good. A full 5/5 for their biriyani alone!!!<br/>This is not an ideal place to dine in, as they offer only to have their blissful dish on standing. Moreover, it’s always jam packed and might need to squeeze in to find a place especially during the prime time. There are leverages to taste their biriyani with half plate and full plate. Apart from biriyani they also sell some tandoori varieties, which sells like hot cakes!!!<br/>Would recommend to get a parcel of their biriyani and taste it slow n steady 😊 The best part of Charminar biriyani is their price, it’s an awesomatic VFM as their full plate chicken biriyani costs 110 bucks. <br/>Indeed one of the best place in our Chennai to taste ever satiating Biriyani!!!<br/><br/>VFM - 5/5<br/>Taste - 4/5<br/>Quality - 4/5<br/>Quantity- 4/5
Shashankh Yalamarthi
Delightful Chicken Biryani is available here.<br/>Mix of Southern Spices makes it More Good to Taste.<br/><br/>The Gulab Jamun to taste here is a must after a tummy full of Biryani.<br/><br/>The Lassi available here is worth the money to taste.<br/><br/>Food: 4/5<br/>Service: 4/5<br/>Ambience: 3/5<br/><br/>Do Visit This Place For all the Biryani Lovers !!
DraG
Charminar bhai biryani is one of the best Muslim style biryani in chennai. But getting into the place is very difficult you cannot park your car anywhere on that street, so it is best to park your car away from that street and go for a walk to the shop. The shop atmosphere will be very loud and polluted because of the never ending traffic on that road.<br/>With all the difficulties you faced just disappears when you start having the biryani it just gets you to a new world seriously their biryani is Vera level. It is definitely worth waiting in ques, parking you car away and getting yourself walk into that busy street.<br/>Best recommended for a takeaway and have it in your home I usually do that only and the quality of the food and the taste just remains the same as dine in it won't be oily as some other biryanis if we take a parcel. Online delivery also available provided by other online delivery partners I have tried that too and the packaging will also be good.
Mohamed Afrose
A busy afternoon , we stood in the crowd for about 5 minutes to buy the biryani . We bought Chicken biryani . The price was normal but the quantity was less . We can try it for a time .
Gladwin Manoah
Went here on a Sunday afternoon, the place was jam packed lucky that we were able to get ourselves our plates quickly. We ordered chicken biriyani (Full plate). Chicken was well cooked, biriyani tasted great, and the quantity was sufficient. Will defenietly visit again on a weekday.<br/>Pic courtesy : Raph Vj
Jeric Ashwin Fernando
It's a WOW.. The best biriyani in chennai I say.. Pretty reasonable price.. The only thing is there is no seating and its the only drawback. I loved the chicken biriyani to the core.. Must vist place always.. Fun to hang out with friends and hate a plate of biriyani..
Vani
They definitely serve you the best biryani in Chennai. Special mention are the smoky chicken and the mutton pieces in the biryani. Even the add ons Raita, brinjal and the bread halwa are so good.
Syed Reyaz
Cheap and best biryani in town.. The traditional chicken biryani served here is with skin and they use the lagaan chicken which is their USP. The biryani masala is rightly mixed and the chicken is soft to chew. Taste good..
The.dining.chennai / RAGAVAN
Its located in streets of Royapettah, chennai<br/>It has its own trademark of CHICKEN BRIYANI. fr less price & always wit a crowd of people.<br/>Though its cheap it has oly less quantity .. and one can need 2 go for another round of Briyani .. ! Tastes high .. becoz of crowd ..the service is poor .& oly need 2 stand & eat not have chairs or table<br/><br/>Food 4/5<br/>Service 2/5<br/>Ambience 1/5<br/><br/>
Kavin
This has to be one of my favourite Biriyani spots in India. The street is very crowded making the experience even worth while. Again as al elaf there absolutely no parking in that place. Especially no cars. So if u want to come here u have to come by a motorcycle.
Gajesh Kumar Vasudevan
A Busy noon, A Busy Briyani place, this place is busy as hell, no matter it's weekdays or weekends... To add fuel to the fire, there is no seating available at the place, the only choice you are left with if u r planning to dine in, is to have the food standing, starters are prepared in the shop opposite to this place.. And when it gets busy the place becomes Too crowded to even stand. The three stars are just for the briyani they serve, taste is okay, nothing out of the ordinary, served hot, chicken pieces could have been better. This is a 'Can try once' place.
Nirmal Henry
One of the best #biriyani in #chennai - We went at 3pm on a Sunday wondering if biriyani would still be available but not only was it available, it was steaming hot. Half plate costs 60rs and it wouldn't be enough - so better go for a half biriyani + half kuska or one full plate.<br/><br/>There are no seating arrangements and the place is usually packed but for that taste you get, you'll be ready to ignore everything else.
Rajesh Harikumar
Charminar Briyani Center- "60 ruba chicken briyani"<br/><br/>Twas a cooooool sunday afternoon at Royapettah. Mine and Ashmitha AR's tummy scratched for food and since twas sunday we wanna eat some 'Hunted Food'.<br/><br/>Suddenly this place came to our mind and we headed towards it. We walked walked walked for 1.4 km.<br/><br/>Heard that 'Tung Tung Tung' sound and joyfully entered the shop and ordered chicken, mutton and egg BAERIYANIIIII.<br/><br/>Athuku apram ena?? Nalla saptu mudichitu, Kai yu kaluvitu kelambitom..<br/><br/>About the place:<br/>Situated in one of the busiest place in chennai (Peters Road, Royapettah). They have two shops which are opposite to each other. One for mutton and other for chicken briyani. Service was fast and good. Seating not available but has clean place to stand and eat.<br/><br/>About the food:<br/>Their briyani tasted different and was decent. Served with raita and brinjal. Meat were perfectly cooked.<br/><br/>On the whole, twas a 'satisfying briyani', budget friendly place with good service.<br/><br/>P.S: Quantity was not enough 'For Me'.<br/><br/>
Sivashankar Sms
The quantity is a bit less but mutton biryani was great with good pieces but my favorite would be the chicken Tikka which is nice and charred and is at a very reasonable price
The Luscious Tummy
The best & cheapest tandoori shop in town, they have four types of tandoori’s very hygienic in taste, but the ambience in this shop is really worse, Check out some fresh & different flavours of tandoori’s (Malai, Garlic, Mint, Chilli) the chicken is too juicy & tender. But the price is terribly low. One piece of chicken is just 60₹ & half chicken is 120₹ & full chicken is 240₹. They also have chikka tikka which is very cheap.
Aksshay Sainath
this biriyani shop has been there for a very long time. Its pretty famous too, so thought of going to this place to try the biriyani out. It’s a small shop in the heart of the city. Its really crowded cause the biriyani over here is very very good. I tried chicken biriyani. It biriyani is hot and the aroma makes you fall for it. The chicken in the biriyani is very tender. The combination of biriyani + brinjal curry + raita is really good
Navanish @
Seriously i don't know why this Biryani outlet having this much of rating. Today i tried Chicken biryani , Tandoori chicken and Pudhina tandoori , Everything is like a normal one not a special hipe for what we expect to eat. So dont think this is the best biryani shop in Chennai.<br/><br/>Cost - very convenient<br/>Quantity - huge quantity<br/>Chicken - Very hard not a juicy<br/>Biryani - 2/5<br/><br/>Bettet go early and have a mutton Biryani. Dony try the chicken biryani here.<br/><br/>
Divyan Raj
Quiet different in taste the rice was not dry it was having that good saucey flavor like a tomato rice so that saucey flavor made the briyani taste good<br/>Even their chicken Tika was really good .The rate was really cheap 60rs one plate chicken briyani and even Tika was 60 which had 5 pieces
Arun Mitra
Top among one of my favorite biriyani spots in the city. Biriyani melts in your mouth with every bite. Mutton biryani and 4 flavours of tandoori. Must visit place in Chennai.
Gajapati NS
This restaurant is located in Mirsahibpet Junction.<br/><br/>They are serving Chennai's best biryani and also they have small shop opp to this there will get tandoor and naans.<br/><br/>Chicken Biryani superb with brinjal and onion.
Satish Kumar
My Dear Charminar!!!<br/><br/>Your the best!! You never disappoint me. Whenever I eat you, you give me the greatest satisfaction as if am eating you for the 1st time. Even if I eat you daily.. you have never ever disappointed me!! <br/><br/>Love you so much ❤️❤️❤️<br/><br/>No other Briyanis can compete with my Charminar!!! 😘😘😘
Dhilip Pugalenthi
This places is so close to my heart. Top among one of my favorite biriyani spots in the city. Take a left towards beach from Royapettah govt hosptial after a Km there will be on busiest shop in one of the busiest roads in Chennai. You will realise its Charminar. This place dont need any introduction for the Chennaiites. This is a most recommended place to my friends from me.<br/><br/>Biriyani with 2 or 3 bigger vessels with the spoon knocking sounds, it is a noise for a non-foodie and a soothing music for a foodie. The biriyani cooked and kept with aroma is served hot from 1st plate to the last.<br/><br/>The mutton or chicken piece in the biriyani is so tender that no other hotel had given this soft. Biriyani melts in your mouth with every bite. Eating it with brinjal or onion pachadi or without it doesnt matter at all.<br/><br/>Taste : 4/5<br/>Ambience : 2/5
Fenn
This place is located in Royapettah on the road toway marina beach this is a really nice place to have some biryani. The flavour of this biryani is really amazing and tasty too. This is really famous place so can find full crowd during peak hours in afternoon and in the evening around seven really nice place everyone should try.
Yamini Vijayanandan
<br/><br/>Located right in one of the busiest streets of Royapettah,though this place lacks a proper fine dining area,it’s always a task to even get your take away..this place is always brimming .. <br/><br/>Think no further..head straight to Charminar for the best briyani treat you can ever experience.<br/><br/>
HungryArchitect
It’s one of my go-to place for a pocket friendly yet Tasty Biriyani in town. Even though Seatings are not available, the place gets overcrowded in the afternoon. My usual order would always be Kuska and Garlic Tandoori. The Amalgam of the rice with spices was in place to give a flavourful taste. It’s a bit spicy though. Garlic Tandoori is prepared straight opposite to where Biriyani is served. Their Tandoori chicken is so tender and juicy making it more tasty and mouth watering.
JB Marshall
Different! The first time i tried after hearing so much about this place i was little disappointed. But after somedays i felt trying it again. It was like a slow poison that had its effect later. The next consecutive times were satisfied. 1st of all the quantity. The quantity for tat cost is decent. And when you see such quantity u dont feel 'moonjila adicha maathiri..' I liked tis place for tat. And the difference is the type of chicken they use is white leghorn. The chicken is juicy and addictive. Atleast better than broilers. Its not a place to dine in as the crowd floods ,added its a standing dine. Cost, taste and quantity makes this place different from others.
Aa Harem | ആ ഹരം
Indeed, Charminar biriyani is famous. Let try how good is it. Taste wise this biriyani is good. Price for the quantity also fair. The amount of meat served is in less quantity there Yaa Mohiyudeen wins. Also the experience wise it is a little funny to get mutton biriyani you need to cross the road and get from other side........
Mohammed Faisal
Best Biriyani in Chennai. There tandoori is amazing and cheap. Every time I visit my aunty I buy chicken biriyani from there. Good quality and best taste
Srinathh Varadaraj
This place undoubtedly falls under top 10 or top 5 biryani places in chennai. They serve country chicken biryani ,mutton biryani and 4 flavours of tandoori.
Vidhya Rajangam
Really worst experience. I ordered 2 - 1/2 kg chicken biryani but it's only 360 gms. Very less quantity. Un cooked tandoori chicken. Over all bill Rs.240 but I paid 288rs. Feeling irritated<br/>
Sathish
The briyani you can't miss! Worth for money!! Half Chicken briyani + half mutton briyani + 2 eggs and pieces costs just 160/- quantity is less but is enough for the tummy. Briyani gravy comes with it is really good.
Shabbu
Grown up eating the biryani from here. As it is located near my house. From my childhood to till now nothing has been changed. Taste quality and quantity remains the same till now. This place is heavily crowded always for there biryani. You can also try there tandoori naan at evening time.
Avinash Stark
This biryani is good but it's more like tomato chicken rice . But it's totally different from other BIRYANI places because in this biryani all you can get is the flavor of tomato and chicken mixed and it's very good . Other places people would find it little bit of spiciness and they might not like it but this place is all about keep the taste buds rolling and wanting to ask more and more.
Arun Kumar
One of my favourite briyani in Chennai.. never disappointed me.. mildly spiced, with min irritants.. the brinjal gravy which comes along with also very good .
Rasha Ashraf
The first time I ate Charminar biryani was at a wedding function... Expecting the same I decided to try their outlet in Triplicane....<br/>There is no seating or parking space... If you get a parking spot ur lucky...<br/>We ordered mutton biryani and they said they were out of it... So we settled for One and a half chicken biryani...<br/>The chicken in the biryani came with skin which was a put off in the first place.... The masala also did not taste great... Felt as if I was eating biryani at a roadside stall...<br/>Very disappointed as was craving to eat it for a long time...Won’t visit again... <br/>

This is one of the places which was in my wishlist for a long time. Jumping straight into the review.<br/><br/>Food:<br/>Charminar biryani is in itself a brand. And the biryani was sumptuous without any frills doing complete justice to the reputation. Unlike other biryani places, this spot served the most tender meat. The rice was cooked right with moderate spice level.<br/><br/>Ambience:<br/>This place is cramped in between tiny Streets and finding a spot for parking and dining needs a keen eye. Not much can be complained since this is only a biryani joint. Right opposite to this place is where you can get grill chicken. Worth a shot.<br/><br/>Price:<br/>Among all the other places I'd say this place is the most economical One for Biryani. Quantity can be less but the price too is way down. Definitely recommendable for biryani lovers.

This is an another biriyani joint where u can always find crowd till closing... That's an impact it created for chennaites... In Chennai there are some places where u can't find even water to drink but u can find an biriyani shop every nook and corner that's the extent we love biriyani...<br/>Highlight of this shop is they cook biriyani only with country chicken not broiler chicken that's an healthy one.. Taste wise it's an superb one and they provide biriyani starting from 60rs where u can't find that rate in any joint...<br/>If u haven't tasted it still just hit the shop when u r roaming around royapettah or EA mall...

Chicken biriyani was excellent, Rice quantity could be better but you wouldn’t mind it for the taste. Must try place in Chennai :) Remember parking could be a pain
