Pakka Local

Stopped by for Lunch after a movie at GVK Mall nearby, is walkable from there, hardly takes 10 mins.

Ordered Mushroom Vepudu, Veg Biryani and Veg Kofta Curry. This is one of the best Biryanis in Hyderabad, right balance of spice and flavours. Other dishes were also very satisfying to the palate.

Ambience of the restaurant is awesome with some brass cutlery adding to the vibes.

It's a lovely place with good ambiance and great food. Don't miss apricot delight here. Loved the beautiful and talented ladies themed dining space.

Not being a localite, the menu was slightly confusing but the chef came to help. Suggested the best items. The food... Was just amazing. Everything was just perfect. The bheemavaram royalla vepudu, the crispy coconut chicken, spicy mini veg basket, and the apricot delight dessert.
The ambience, the service and the food. All amazing.

First of all, the entry is nice 🙂 with their welcome sign and there are two main places one is outdoor and one is indoor, we went for dinner with 14 people and we think 🤔 for night dinner time, outside is good but at this summer times🌞, inside is good because of its royalty 😎 which we can feel like we are in some palace type of thing. There are different places which we can select to sit when we plan with more people. And coming to servicing it's awesome 👍🏻😎 every time people roaming near to us like if we want anything else more, but time to get our order is comparatively more and the really awesome thing is the food taste 😋😋😋 really superb. We have ordered 2 South Indian Palates and 8 types of biryani Items and 13 thumbs-up, 4 types of desserts, which are really so tasty 😋😋🤤 must and should try at this place if we want to experience like Royal type of ambience.

Outdoor seating was quite pleasant with old movie songs running slowly in the background. We ordered Mutton shorba soup, Tawa fish, Telangana chicken fry, nali gosh biryani and palakollu potlam kodi pulao. We could relish the food as the flavours were just right not too spicy.

Great food.
Chitaranjan service has been excellent. Thoroughly enjoyed

It's the one and only place with the nature atmosphere u would love to be surrounded with.

The food is awesome here, especially the Potlam Mutton Biryani cooked by the Master Chef G Salla Rao.

He personally asked us what sort of spices we like and cooked it accordingly, definitely ask for the chef on your visit.

Overall experience was good and the taste of the food was awesome but as Hyderabadi I wont call their served biryani was a biryani.
Instead of pieces we got more gravy in biryani.
Onion served plate was pathetic.

Ambience is perfect for having a private conversation for a long time if you need. Pretty spacious place with a lot of seating on the ground floor, outside seating for smoking in the backyard, level 1 for the family section if in a group. Food is little pricey but if you’re looking for a well spent evening over dinner date then this is a go to place. Besides food, they also serve beverages too. So even if you’re looking for a good place for coffee/tea, you could consider it.

Had the opportunity to catch up with friends over dinner here at Pakka Local on a weekday evening. We didn't make a reservation and came in at about 8.30pm. Valet parking took care of our cars and we found the seating options fantastic (bright pleasantly well done interiors along with the subtly lit outdoor seating option). It gives you the premium family friendly restaurant vibe for sure. We ordered the mutton ghee roast for starters and thoroughly enjoyed it. The butter naan and roti were both very good, paired with navaratan korma and an Andra based chicken curry that I can't recall the name of.

The bill was well priced (600 odd INR per person) for our experience though we were disappointed that we couldn't try the biryanis that evening (we didn't feel like having more). It's a wonderful restaurant and can be great for both meals with family and friends. Will definitely go here again.

A unique place to get different cuisines under same roof. Traditional dishes were equally good as others. Very crowded place. Service was little slow, but fine. Few minor things to be taken care of like on-table napkin and straw holders were having contaminated water at bottom because of which straws turned wet and dirty. They changed on request. Otherwise a good experience.

Absolutely a must go place. Refined and bright decor . The food definitely takes the stars for taste. Well cooked and full of flavor with local Hyderabad cuisine, the food satisfies the customer. The server Manoj recommend the chicken handi kabab and Chinta chiguru veg pulav which was as suggested simply fabulous. Rice was full of flavor and chicken with the right amount of spice.

The best koobideh kebab in Hyderabad. No kidding. Biryani not so good. Chef Shyam excellent preparations! Soup was delicious. Garlic chutney is par excellence

We went to Banjara hills branch. It has great ambience and you can really have a great time with friends or family. This place have a open dining option which is awesome.
But food here is bit expensive when compared to kondapur branch.
For us it costed around 2500 for 3 which is very high.

Great Place with Good Ambience and Amazing Food!

Really loved the presentation and taste of food.

If you want to give your tastebuds some spices, taste the Royalseema cuisine here!

Place has good family crowd, neatly maintained and service was also prompt.

The "Crackling Spinach Chicken and Coconut Fried Shrimps" were simply delicious.

Would definitely recommend this place. Great Job to the Team! 👍

Excellent taste, great service and fabulous ambience in the backyard.

Loved all their dishes. Went back today again with friends.

Delicious dishes and great variety of the menu. Staff team is friendly and top notch. Thanks for the great evening. We are coming back

A hidden gem on the roads of Banjara hills, Ariana by Safi is restraunt serving Afghani and Uzbekistani cuisine.
With its bewitching ambience and heartful staff, I assure that the place will mesmerise you and will make you come here again and again.
Not only the soothing Ambience is a charm but also the food served here works wonders. Was here for a weekend lunch and tried out a few dishes from menu.
Starting with some koobideh rolls.
The tender koobideh mutton under the egg wrapped Roll tasted heavenly. And its a must try here.
Barbeque Chicken wings are another gem here. The flavour and bbq sauce, a complete balance.
Majestic baby corn, chicken tikka pizza, Mediterranean pizza are another picks for starters. Also tried mutton chopan, which is a pick too.
They serve amazing vegetable pasta and chicken pasta too, with your choice of sauce. Starters get good along with some mocktails like Mojito, cranberry and orange juice, watermelon Mojito and various other juices.
Coming to main course, they serve the authentic Kabuli Pulao, and it's a must try upon your visit here. Chicken Curry, lobiya, Palak curry, Mutton Curry, Zafrani Pulav, Chicken Pulao are another try outs from the menu.
But my personal favourite is the Kabuli Pulao without doubt.
For dessert had a bowl of firni, a good mix of cardamom, coconut flavours. Belgian chocolate waffle, churros and Caramel Custard.
A little improvised dessert would be a stealer. But the starters and main course are undoubtedly perfect.
Definitely a solace place from the noise of the city, quite relaxing vibe and ofcourse amazing food.
Highly recommended 👍🏻
Happy Eating 🙂
