Kebabs & Kurries at ITC Kakatiya is a must-visit if you’re in Hyderabad and in the mood for a luxurious Indian dining experience. Inspired by ITC’s legendary restaurants like Bukhara and Dum Pukht, this place blends classic North Indian flavors with royal Nawabi influences, and it does so with style and finesse.
The ambiance immediately sets the tone—think candle-lit pathways, elegant interiors, and a semi-open kitchen where you can catch glimpses of the chefs at work. It feels classy yet warm, perfect for a special dinner or a quiet celebration. The staff is equally impressive—attentive, polite, and always ready with thoughtful recommendations. People often mention staff members like Shekar and Prashanth for making them feel right at home.
Now, the food. The Galouti Kebabs are an absolute highlight—so soft they practically melt in your mouth. If you’re a meat lover, don’t miss the Sikandari Raan—a slow-cooked leg of lamb that’s rich in flavor and incredibly tender. The Dal Bukhara, a creamy black lentil dish simmered overnight, is another classic that lives up to the hype.
Vegetarians are in for a treat too. Dishes like Labgeer (a beetroot kebab delicately flavored with cardamom) and Pudina Paneer Tikka are full of depth and flavor. For seafood fans, the Tarare Jhinga—jumbo prawns marinated with chilies and herbs—is bold and delicious. And the Chooza Biryani, made with saffron and yogurt-marinated chicken, is rich, fragrant, and pairs perfectly with Burhani Raita.
One thing to be cautious about: while they do label gluten-free options, people with serious gluten sensitivities or celiac disease might want to double-check with the kitchen. There have been some reports of cross-contamination.
Overall, Kebabs & Kurries offers a refined take on traditional Indian cuisine, and every detail—from the decor to the service to the food—feels carefully crafted. Whether you’re a local or a visitor, this is the kind of place that leaves a...
