I had the Tellicherry Chicken Dum Biryani at Kovalam Restaurant in Tracy this weekend, and it was outstanding. I have tried dum biryani from almost all the Indian restaurants in Tracy, but this one truly stands out.
They use traditional Kaima rice, a short-grain, fragrant rice from Kerala that is different from the long basmati rice most people are used to. The grains are small, soft, slightly plump, and absorb the spices beautifully, giving the biryani a rich, layered flavor in every bite. It makes the dish taste authentic and deeply satisfying.
The chicken was tender and lightly shallow-fried before being layered into the dum, which gave it an amazing texture and depth of flavor. The spices were perfectly balanced, and the aroma was incredible. You can really taste the attention to detail by owner-operator Chef Philip.
It reminded me of authentic Dum biryani back home.
Highly recommend everyone to give it a try. If you want true Tellicherry (Malabar)-style Dum biryani in Tracy, this is the place.

This spot is nestled inside Kovalam Indian Groceries, cleverly set apart yet within the store. We opted for Masala Fried Chicken, Fish Fry, Goat Peralan served with Kerala Porotta and Idiyappam, and Chicken Biryani. While the Masala Fried Chicken was flavorful, it seemed to have artificial coloring added, which could be skipped. The Fish Fry was marinated and cooked to perfection. Trying the Goat Peralan was a delightful surprise; the masala was particularly tasty. Goat is partly chewy, it would have been better softer. The Kerala Porotta was a bit greasy. The Chicken Biryani, adorned with dry fruits and nuts, leaned towards a sweeter side, but the accompanying pickle was a highlight. Definitely don’t miss the pickle—it’s fantastic. Overall, the meal was delicious but a bit oily, with oil seeping onto our plates. It might be worth considering reducing the oil usage.
It’s self service style, you order and pick it up and take to your table. Also, note that there aren’t high chairs for kids at this restaurant.

The restaurant is the same owner as the grocery store next door.
I like the dosa and biryani, but the curries I’ve tried were all on the runny side. Be prepared to wait as there is only 1 person serving the entire restaurant.

Food was terrible. Had Chicken roast and Parrota.
Parrota is very soft. And some of the chicken pieces is uncooked.

Hands down the best Kerala food I’ve had in the US. It’s inside a grocery store, but don’t let that fool you — the food is legit. We came all the way from Santa Clara and it was 100% worth it. Porottas were soft and flaky, shrimp roast was amazing, beef fry and chicken roast were packed with flavor. Appam and chicken curry were on point too. The chef was super friendly — had a great chat with him. If you’re craving real Kerala food, this is the spot.

We went today with 6 of our friends. Hands down the best Kerala food in the bay and the closest to Kerala food.
Highly recommend the beef fry, beef ularthiyathu, chicken roast and prawns roast.
We had a great time and took us down a memory lane when we got food that matched the taste of our gods own country.
