Great food but biryani is not as spicy and kind of in the bland side. But for the lunch special, it's good biryani. It's clean it seems and simple looking. There is a credit card minimum. read more

Ever have a day where you forget to eat and then get stupid hungry? I actually googled "biryani near me". Enter Biryani Pot. We were too far from home to carryout so we decided to dine in. This place seems almost exclusively meant for take out with just a hand full of tables...and thats ok. This little nook was clean and therefore inviting. We ordered chicken dum biryani, mutton dum biryani, some chicken 65, mutton korma, along with naan and lassi. Both biryanis were great! Perfectly cooked, long, aromatic grains of rice, fall apart meat which was seasoned through. Chicken 65 was good. Korma was good. All with Hyderabadi flair. Lassi was ok. We had to ask for boxes as there was more than enough portioned food. The young man at the counter was helpful, attentive, and answered our questions with confidence. We received our food faster than I could check in on Yelp! If it wasn't for the price of 76.01 for two ladies and myself yet service in styrofoam plates and one tired excuse for a plastic teaspoon, I'd say this little gem is a winner. I'd definitely come back exept carryout the next time I'm in Naperville. read more

Tried their irani tea when i was in aurora. I don't have high expectations from this place, but it totally blew my mind. I did not get any food here as i had already had my lunch. I found their menu interesting, and I would definitely like to try out food the next time i am in aurora. read more

Perhaps the biggest waste of a meal and money ever. Food was poorly spiced and overly salted to the point where I ate about 5 or six bites and threw the rest away. Never ever ever ever eat here. Literally $36 of sadness in the trash. Never ever ever eat here. read more

I was in the burbs and was craving biryani, looked up yelp. and arrived here. The gentlemanan who took the order was very polite...had my food ready when I got there. Disappointed that it didn't meet my expectations at all! Not my kinda Hyderabad biryani. read more

Best authentic Hyderabadi biryani option in Naperville, No mistakes on large orders ever.

Not really a favorite place that I will frequent. I know some of the people might like it, but the food was not what I had in mind.

Fantastic value for Chicken Biryani lunch special. Very tasty and a large serving. Recommend calling ahead

Not at all a good place for food. Unhygienic and the person who was serving food for us was eating while serving. Also the food was not tasty. We ordered bagara baigan which had fried brinjal (egg plant). It is fried so deep that even my black hair looks lighter in complexion. Chapathis ordered were hard. Probably not a good day or a wrong choice. Anyways am thumbsdown for this place. Ambience is not that good and even restrooms were stinking. I prefer public restroom rather than going here. Not a place for vegetarians. read more

Owner is rude Ordered a family pack of biryani that includes an appetizer of chicken 65. Menu clearly states "serves 4." It does not serve 4 people, and def not the chicken 65- had one tiny piece of chicken and rest was all masala. The container wasn't even halfway full of masala. It was embarrassing to even serve. I called up, and explained my concern, asking if we could come to a middle ground for situation to be rectified. He did not want to entertain it at all, started to raise his voice, and interrupted me as I was talking, and contradicted the written menu, saying it doesn't serve 4, "it was given to you for free." He said "take it or leave it." Imo, food wasn't all that to justify putting up with rude owners like that. read more

Horrible service and food. we were a party of 5 and they scammed us by charging us 18% "gratitude" even though they served us the food in plastic plates and spoons. They claimed it's a law to charge a party of 4 or more. I looked it up on Illinoisrestaurants.gov and the law states that "The ruling provides the following illustration of an alleged tip that is actually a service charge: A restaurant's policy of adding an 18 percent service charge to the bill for parties of six or more" read more

I pass by this place all the time. I was in the neighborhood, so I decided to stop in and grab some food. Well, we ordered Krai Chicken, Malai boti and Chicken65, Chicken Biryani of course, along with yummy fresh Naans. Our order arrived in a considerate manner. Food was excellent, not at all greasy. Great vegetarian options. Definitely worth the wait and will be coming back again very soon! Great taste and reasonable price! read more

Biryani Pot - Indian Near Me - Naperville, Illinois

To be honest this place is ok. I really didnt like it. The only thing I like was the price real cheap . Not much flavor or spice .... I had better places I been that serve better and taster Biryani . Over all I do recommend checking this place for yourself and decide but for me I will never visit this restaurant again. read more

This review is for the following items Samosa - Best I've had in a while Haleem - Best I've ever had Chicken biryani - Authentic and tasty! Chicken kebab - Good Chai Tea - Irani chai fosho! Biryani pot is authentic Hyderabadi. You could taste the freshness and authenticity in every dish. Glad we didn't completely rely on the yelp stars and decided to give it a shot. Excellent food and service. Thanks to the owner, the young gentleman at the front desk and the chef. God bless read more

Unfortunately I cannot give it 0 stars. Chicken biryani: worst ever. I ordered the fp4 and we ended up ordering from someone else too because it was basically not even remotely close to Biryani. It was boiled rice with some chicken flavoring. Just sad. read more

I picked up an order of butter chicken today. When I reached home and opened it, I was utterly disappointed to see that it was 99% curry with hardly 2-3 tiny chicken pieces. It's not even enough to feed one person. Very dissapointing! read more

I have had Biryani all over the world. You can say that I am a Biryani Connoisseur. Let me say clearly... no one makes better Chicken Biryani than this place. Naperville is lucky to have this small but unbelievably good Biryani restaurant in its midst. Their mutton fry and Chicken 65 is good but their Chicken Biryani is consistently the very best. Enjoy and thank me later! read more

Not that great experience with biryani. Better options available. Packaging was not great which didnt help

Would definitely recommend. Had a great meal there the flavors are simply amazing, and the service is awesome

The food was amazing and the customer staff is also very friendly. This is my new go to restaurant!

The food was not fresh, old and tasteless. I heard microwave beeps when they were warming up the frozen food.

This place is a perfect example of how Indian restraints fail / lose customers. The first few order in the January of 2018 were spot on. Even the Dine in Experience was wonderful. BUT The past two carry out orders have been pathetic. They used to use premium white (chicken breast meat) in their chicken 65 but They have now switched over to cheaper thigh meat which is full of slimy fat and tendons and down right slimy / disgusting. I called the restaurant to complain and was told that this is not possible and they only use whit meat, when I insisted, I was transferred to the chef who told me that they are trying out a mix of white / dark meat to see how it does (it was all slimy thigh meat), I told him that we will not be eating this, he said to throw it out without any remorse or apology for ruining our dinner. Again I asked him if this change was permanent and he gave me a B.S. answer of "he doesn't know" when i insisted, I was told to call and confirm before ordering. Last night I made a second attempt to order their Chicken 65, that also turned out to be an EPIC DISASTER, the older gentleman who runs the front register and phones has zero communication skills neither in his own native language or English. It took me 10 minutes to explain to him the difference between white and dark chicken meat to no avail, when I asked him again if they were using "BREAST MEAT" in their chicken 65? he kept repeating that yes they were using "FRESH MEAT" and kept insisting that they have never used thigh meat in their chicken 65. I reminded him of my complaint last week and he said that it must have been a different restaurant and I am making a mistake, in the end I gave up and ordered a pickup somewhere else. It is really sad.... these guys had potential, but their greed and desire to save a couple of bucks has lost a customer who would have spent at least a couple of hundred bucks over the next 6 months. P.S. please hire someone with basic communication skills to run your phones / communicate with your customers, you are losing customers because of this. read more

Just from the trust of biryani I had in Biryani Pot,Bay Area, visited this place. This is the worst so called Hyderabad dum biryani ever I had. The rice is not boiled properly and the biryani is so wet moisture of oil & water. And the chicken never tasted like a dum mixed chicken. I threw this out after the To-go. Not at all satisfied. read more

Some of the best real Indian food you can get in Chicago. I've eaten at most of the places considered "good food". But this place is actually authentic Indian food. It's like eating in Hydrobad india India. Would also take this place over anything in Devon. (Would post a pic but the foods all gone) 5/5 read more

We ordered biryani from here and paid $40 + tax. All we got was lots of rice, lots of bones with hardly any meat on them. Very expensive rice we just purchased from this place. If you are ordering food for special occasion, you will probably be embarrassed serving. read more

Got Chicken Biryani and smell in the rice was really not worth eating. Didn't enjoyed the taste and smell.

If you are in mood for authentic Hyderabadi food ( Indian food ) , I believe this is the place to go .. malai chicken .. chicken boti are outstanding ..and not to mention Biryani .. is authentic hyderabadi .. Over all food is unquestionably .. if I was the owner I would work on service and ambiance. read more

The food is not terrible. The flavors and spice Levels where decent. But I have eaten Indian food all through the states and Europe and I can def tell u that their version of 65 is just not proper and in some ways kind of weird. Their was an entire layer of gooey batter on the bottom on the serving dish. And It contained zero curry leaves. Also this restaurant even though being a "whole in the wall" type place can do with a real good cleaning. Not terrible but with all the really good Indian restaurants in the area I will be back. read more

Food is really delicious and pakka Hyderabadi taste I'm suggesting to all Hyderabadi brothers to try food here it's worth of money

Best Hyderabadi dum biryani and Chicken 65 in Naperville . Good for catering as well and very reasonably priced.If you like authentic Hyderabadi Indian food your search end here in Naperville.Don't miss their Chai it's amazing. read more

DENIED SERVICE. PROBLEM CHEF. I had thoroughly enjoyed my vegetable biryani previously at this restaurant so I made the trek again with a friend. We arrived at 8:40PM The restaurant closes at 10PM. We put through our order to the very friendly employee. He said he would have to check with the chef on my friends order. He thought they might be out of that particular item. We saw another man peek through the window in the door to the kitchen. Presumably this was the chef as this is a very small storefront restaurant. Then, the original employee returned and politely told us that they were out of all of the dishes and that we would not be able to order food at all. This seemed strange as the restaurant would be open for another hour and 20 minutes. There was a family there eating food that looked like it had just been served moments before. Also, as we were in the parking lot looking for another place to eat, we observed several other customers obtaining their food both on a take out and dine in basis. All of the other customers appeared to be of Indian heritage. My friend and I are not. I can only imagine why we were turned away as my friend and I were both dressed appropriately and very polite. We were both excited to be eating there again. Disappointing and frankly, hurtful. read more
