Biryani has a devoted following in Silicon Valley, and in Sunnyvale, Naan N Masala at 161 S Sunnyvale Ave is the address that consistently comes up in the recommendation. Made using the dum method, the best biryani here is a slow-cooked affair: fragrant basmati rice and marinated protein layered and sealed before going into the oven, building a depth of flavor that quick versions can't replicate. The Sunnyvale location serves chicken biryani, lamb biryani, and vegetable biryani, each with its own spice profile and preparation. The lamb biryani in particular has developed a following among South Bay regulars who make the trip from Mountain View, Santa Clara, and Cupertino specifically for it. ![]() All meat biryanis are prepared with halal-certified chicken and lamb. Raita and a simple salad accompany each order, with optional garlic naan as a complement (though biryani is a complete meal on its own). Biryani is available for dine-in at 161 S Sunnyvale Ave, as well as for takeout and delivery. The restaurant's late-night hours, open until 3am Thursday through Saturday, mean it's also a viable option for anyone with a biryani craving after midnight in downtown Sunnyvale.
