I had placed an order for an event at my home a day in advance, but when I went for pickup, I was told there was no order. This is very disappointing and shows poor customer service. Such mistakes cause a lot of inconvenience, especially when planning for special occasions

The worst restaurant I have ever visited in my life. I wouldn't recommend anybody anyday anytime to go and eat unless you are dying that second.
No cleanliness
No taste
There are bones and rice on the table people are not even cleaning the tables unless we ask for it.
The roti is also worst and the taste of the curry was a deadly worst combination.
Please do not waste your money and time by going to this place.

Took home Chicken and Mutton Biryani. Did not resonate with my taste buds at all. You will get 3x better tasting Biryani in the same or lesser price at other popular restaurants like Ali's Nihari and Bundoo Khan. May be they make Biryani according to south Indian tastes. Cash only, so be ready to spend $2.5 more at their ATM.

What ever you take... Please don't take meals in the morning hours before 12pm..
I threw the Rice and Roti... Rice was really very hard and Roti was stale.
Ask what is fresh before you order...
Otherwise restaurant is Good.

One-line Review: Hyderabadi Haleem Heaven!
Quality: 4.5/5 Value for Money: 4.5/5 Service: 4.5/5 Hygiene: 4.5/5
➡️ First Impression:
I stopped by Hyderabad House at 2225 W Devon Ave, Chicago, IL 60659, for my second visit, craving some authentic Hyderabadi flavors. It’s a small spot, but the real taste it offers made it feel special right away.
➡️ What I Ordered:
I went for the mutton haleem and mutton biryani. The order came to around $32, which felt like a cheaper price compared to other places.
➡️ Taste & Quality:
The mutton haleem was a standout—absolutely delicious with a rich, well-spiced taste that screamed authentic Hyderabadi style. It was so good I could’ve eaten another portion, but the biryani was next! The texture was perfect, and it left me craving more. The mutton biryani, though, didn’t hit the same high note—it was okay, with decent flavor, but fell short of my expectations after the haleem. I managed to finish it, but it wasn’t as memorable. The sides—onions, raita, lime, and what I think was sambar (apologies if I got the name wrong)—were a nice touch, adding freshness and balance to the meal. The quality overall felt authentic and freshly prepared, especially the hot food served.
➡️ Portion vs Price:
The portions were very sufficient, especially for $32. The haleem portion left me wanting more (in a good way!), and the biryani was filling enough. The price felt inexpensive compared to other restaurants, offering great value for the taste and quantity.
➡️ Service & Environment:
The service was great—the guy who served me (I forgot to ask his name) was super nice, hardworking, and made sure everything was perfect. They only accept cash, which was a bit of a surprise, but it worked out. The restaurant is small, clean, and not too crowded, with a nice environment that felt cozy. The food took a little time to arrive, but the hot, fresh delivery was worth the wait.
➡️ Final Thoughts:
Hyderabad House in Chicago is a gem for real Hyderabadi mutton haleem—loved it so much I’m already planning my next visit! The biryani was okay but didn’t steal the show like the haleem. The friendly service, clean space, and affordable $32 meal make it a must-try, even with the cash-only policy.
If you’re near 2225 W Devon Ave, Chicago, Hyderabad House is a small, tasty haven for Hyderabadi cuisine—don’t miss the haleem!
