If you're in Kampala and haven't tried this hidden gem of a Pakistani BBQ spot, you're seriously missing out! I’ve eaten my fair share of grilled meats across Uganda, but this place? Hands down, the best I’ve ever had!
Mutton Seekh Kebab – A Game Changer 🌟 I don’t usually go for red meat, but this kebab? It converted me. Soft, juicy, and bursting with perfectly balanced spices—it melts in your mouth like butter. Each bite was a flavor explosion, packed with smokiness from the grill and an addictive char that had me reaching for more. If you think you don’t like mutton, think again!
Kadai Chicken – Home-Cooked Perfection Now, let’s talk about the kadai chicken. They serve it straight in the kadai (traditional iron wok) they cook it in, and that extra touch makes all the difference. The rich, aromatic gravy clings to every tender piece of chicken, with just the right kick of spice to keep things exciting. It’s that kind of dish that tastes like home. The garlic naan was also the best soft naan I've had in town!
The atmosphere is cozy, welcoming, and true to its roots. The staff? Super attentive and passionate about their food, making sure you get the full experience.
Final Verdict: This place isn’t just good—it’s a 10/10 must-visit for anyone who loves authentic flavors. Whether you're a BBQ fanatic or just looking for your next food obsession, do yourself a favor and...
Read moreNayab Restaurant is a hidden gem for anyone who enjoys rich and flavorful Hyderabadi food. Their menu is full of mouth-watering dishes that bring the true taste of Hyderabad to your plate. Highlights include their Chicken 65 with gravy, tender Meat Sheek Kababs, soft Butter Naan, and the famous Hyderabadi Dum Biryani — each dish full of authentic spices and aroma.

Read moreHands down the best Indian (Hyderabadi) food in all of Kampala. The food is so good, you'd hardly realise you are eating in a restaurant and not in some traditional Hyderabadi family invite. The "maraks", mirchi ka saalan, the awesome mutton dum biryani, the tikkas abd kebabs.. all authentic. They have chefs from India and Pakistan, so the food is off the hook good. Don't forget the desserts here: gaajar ka halwa, pineapple halwa (the world famous Uganda pineapples meet pure khoya and desi ghee which is homemade by the owner herself).. the top of the tops gulaab jamoons and raas malais which can match the best in Kolkata.
