I recently had the pleasure of dining at Zaffran, the newly opened restaurant nestled on the third floor of Hotel Renaissance in Vipin Khand. From the moment I stepped in, I was captivated by the plush interiors and spacious ambiance, which perfectly complemented the theme of Awadhi cuisine.
Zaffran specializes in Awadhi delicacies, and I must say, they truly excel in bringing the flavors of Lucknow to life. For starters, I indulged in their chicken tikka and seekh kebabs, and each bite was a burst of exquisite flavors. The tantalizing aroma of the spices set the stage for what was to come.
In the main course, I had the pleasure of trying their Raan Musallam, a dish that left me speechless. The tender meat, marinated to perfection, melted in my mouth, leaving behind a symphony of flavors that lingered long after the meal was over. Additionally, their variety of chicken dishes showcased the richness and diversity of Awadhi cuisine, each dish crafted with care and expertise.
One aspect that truly stood out was the amazing range of sweet dishes available. From traditional desserts to modern twists on classic recipes, Zaffran offers something for every palate. The presentation of each dish was impeccable, a true feast for the eyes as well as the taste buds.
To complement the culinary delights, Zaffran also offers a selection of drinks that perfectly complemented the meal. From refreshing mocktails to classic cocktails, there is something for everyone to enjoy.
In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Zaffran to all lovers of Awadhi cuisine. Whether you're a connoisseur or a novice, the culinary journey at Zaffran is one not to be missed. Immerse yourself in the flavors of Lucknow and experience a royal dining experience like no other. A big thank you to the team at Zaffran for an unforgettable...

While the place looked nice and the food seemed fine at first (we had starters, mocktails, dinner), things took a bad turn after we ate. All three of us ended up with stomach pain and one of our family members had to be rushed to the hospital due to severe vomiting and diarrhea. The rest of us also needed medication. It was clear that something in the food was spoiled. This was really disappointing, especially from a restaurant that charges so much. It's summer, food should be served fresh and safely. We didn’t expect this from a place...
Read moreWe celebrated my parents’ anniversary at Zafran, and it was an unforgettable experience. The food was outstanding—flavourful, beautifully presented, and cooked to perfection.

He personally came over to wish my parents and made sure everything was perfect. Highly recommended for special occasions or anyone who appreciates great food and heartfelt...
