Best Chicken 65 Biryani in Chicago
“Chennai's red-fried bar snack buried in biryani rice. Fusion with a police record of deliciousness.”
What the real thing tastes like
Chicken 65 — Chennai's crimson, curry-leaf-crackled fried chicken — folded through and piled over seeraga samba biryani rice. The fried coating half-soaks into the rice, the curry leaf perfume runs through everything, and two south Indian icons become one plate that traditionalists side-eye and finish completely.

Reviews confess the guilt and order it again — the crisp-gone-soggy chicken edges in spiced rice are described as the point, not the flaw. Curry leaf and red chilli perfume gets flagged as the aroma that sells the table next to you.
Order it here when it has
- half-soaked coating
- double icon plate
- curry leaf perfume
- shameless joy
Walk away when you see
- purists object loudly
