Pandaga Restaurant — Restaurant in Hyderabad

We recently had the opportunity to dine at your restaurant, and I would like to share my experience and appreciation for the wonderful food and service we received.

We started our meal with a variety of starters including chicken drumsticks, gongura chicken, chicken lollipops, and patchimitchi chicken. Each of these starters had its own unique flavor and taste. The drumsticks were cooked to perfection, juicy inside with a nice crisp texture on the outside. The gongura chicken was especially impressive with its authentic taste that carried the perfect balance of tanginess and spice, highlighting the richness of traditional flavors. The lollipops were well-seasoned, crispy, and a delight to bite into, while the patchimitchi chicken stood out for its spice and flavor profile that truly awakened the palate.

Moving on to the main course, we tried the gongura chicken biryani, fry piece chicken biryani, and lollipop biryani. Each biryani was distinct in taste yet consistent in quality. The gongura chicken biryani was aromatic, flavorful, and carried the signature tang of gongura leaves blended perfectly with the biryani spices. The fry piece chicken biryani was rich, spicy, and offered a fulfilling combination of soft rice and crispy fried chicken pieces. The lollipop biryani was something unique and delicious, combining the flavors of chicken lollipops with the fragrant biryani rice, which made it a standout dish.

Overall, the food was excellent and exceeded expectations in terms of taste, presentation, and authenticity. Each dish reflected great attention to detail and a commitment to quality. The balance of spices was perfect, and nothing felt too overwhelming. We thoroughly enjoyed the meal and would definitely recommend your restaurant to others who appreciate delicious and well-prepared food. Thank you for providing such a memorable...

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Pandaga Restaurant, and I must say, it was an absolutely delightful experience from start to finish. From the warm and welcoming ambiance to the exceptional service and, of course, the mouthwatering food, everything exceeded my expectations.

The moment I walked in, I was greeted with a cozy and inviting atmosphere. The decor is a perfect blend of modern and traditional, creating a comfortable yet elegant vibe. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure we felt well taken care of throughout our meal.

Now, let’s talk about the food—oh, the food! Every dish we ordered was bursting with flavor and clearly made with fresh, high-quality ingredients. We started with the kodivepudu, which was a perfect introduction to the meal. The main courses were equally impressive "muthikale mutton" was cooked to perfection. The portions were generous, and every bite was a treat for the taste buds.

To top it all off, the dessert was the perfect ending to our meal. The "APRICOT DELIGHT"was light, refreshing, and just the right amount of sweetness.

What truly stood out to me was the attention to detail in every aspect of the dining experience. The presentation of the dishes was beautiful, and the staff went out of their way to ensure we had a memorable time.

Overall, Pandaga Restaurant is a gem, and I can’t recommend it enough. Whether you’re looking for a place to enjoy a casual meal or celebrate a special occasion, this is the spot. I’ll definitely be returning soon—thank you, Pandaga, for an unforgettable...

This is the first time I am giving a 1-star review. I visited this restaurant with a group of four, and while the entrance was nice, featuring paintings and crafted items, which raised our expectations, the food was a huge disappointment.

We ordered the Ellipaya Karam Chicken and Chicken Ghee Roast, each priced at ₹449. The quantity was disappointing, with all pieces containing bones, and some even had neck meat. The flavors were lackluster, resembling boiled chicken simply tossed in a masala. The Ghee Roast was equally underwhelming, with no noticeable ghee flavor and a very mild spice level.

For the main course, we ordered the Chicken Tikka Biryani (₹499) and Fish Tikka Biryani (₹599). Again, the quantity was lacking, with only four small pieces of chicken, which were hardly enough for two people with a good appetite. The fish tikka was similarly bland, with the pieces simply marinated in masala and cooked well but lacking any depth of flavor.

It seems the prices are primarily reflecting the ambiance rather than the food quality, which was a major letdown. Based on the quality of food they provide, I doubt there will be any returning guests—everyone seems like a one-time visitor.

Thanks to Swiggy for offering a 30% discount, or else we would have regretted this experience even more. The discount helped cushion the disappointment, but it certainly didn’t make up for the lackluster food and overall...
