Excellent food and really lovely ambiance. The service was also wonderful! A must visit for sea food lovers. :)
An average haiku for an excellent restaurant:
Oh my, your Khao Soi
Is so deliciously yum
Will be back for more
Loved the food, the ambiance and the service. However , the tepanyaki didn't come with the traditional tepanyaki performance. That was the only let down.
Awsome food 🥘 guyz u have to try. Tq haiku for an excellent food great job 👍
Delicious food , great service and lovely ambience.

LOCKDOWN DINING REVIEW (vegetarian)
Tl; dr review
Food - 5/5

Value for money- 5/5
Detailed review
Visited Haiku for lunch during the lockdown and was pleasantly surprised to see the standards maintained despite the hard times.
They are on par with the required safety protocols and one can dine without any fear and worry.
We started with a sushi platter made with crispy rice (kakiagi maki) and Vietnamese money bags and thoroughly blown away with the flavour and taste.
The sad part is that there aren’t enough.
You could never have enough of these dishes.
For dumplings we ordered Gyoza, which is a dumpling with more filling and less covering; which just adds to so much more to the palate.
The noodles we had ordered were the “Veg Indonesian chilli ban mee”. Quite a mouthful to just say it, right? Wait until you’ve tasted it. It’s a really pleasant tasting noodle dish, hitting the right tones of sweet and spice, with the crunch of fresh carrot and cabbage and beets.
The ambience is always cozy and the service is pleasurable. Added to the joy is the Zomato pro discount.
Overall, a fine experience.
Would I go back? For the sushi, YES !
The place does not serve alcohol, pork or beef, catering beautifully to the pluralistic character of Hyderabad!
You'll get authentic Japanese experience and not feel like just sitting in a random restaurant.
Go for 'Pannacotto' in their Desserts Menu.
One of the best place in Hyderabad to have an Asian cuisine
A delightful experience with extraordinary ambience and really powerful oriental flavours. And non-unmentionable trail of desserts! It was the best Haiku I had ever read 😉
Not gonna lie it was an amazing experience at haiku
I had sushi for the first time it did not disappoint a bit
We also had gyoza which was good
Chili Thai cilantro noodles were also full of flavors
Haikus special fried rice was the best
One of the best sushis I have ever had!! Definitely coming back!
As they promise Asian cuisine they give there 100% ! Perfect BAO I tried presently , siu Mai the shrimp was so juicy, Thai coconut prawns too I can still find that taste on my taste buds and not to forget Indonesian chilli ban mee ! Just love this place!
Ambience-5/5
Taste-4.7/5 ( I think Thai drunk noodles should be better )
Price-4.9/5
Overall -4.9555/5
Nothing to say but love to visit haiku.. Manager Palsang and all staff were so good..
Absolutely loved the service
Decent place but the food was not matching up with the expectations may be because of the hype. The most disappointing part was Thai Green Curry was made using readymade paste.

Hmmm. What can i say? We were bowled with the taste of the food. Be it the delicious baos, the crab avocado stick salad, the yummy Indonesian noodles or the lip-smacking fruit bubble tea. Everything here is true to the Asian taste and delicacy.
Love Haiku! Amazing flavour, it’s an excellent mix between comfort food and good quality asian food
Ebi tempura maki, chilli basil fish are my favourites and a must have!
Umakanth is our favourite staff -he is so proactive and courteous
Excellent place , the manager at Banjara hills is also very good
We had good dinner here. Every single item we ordered from Soup, sushi to main course noodles we liked the quality, and taste. Staff was courteous and had made good recommendations. Enjoyed the dinner time. Puia was very good.
Haiku is a must try place..... the place is very calm and the service is great....the staff are very courteous and also help you out with the menu if you are new to japanese cuisine....
Being an ardent matcha fan, the matcha lemonade satiated my taste buds. The avocado sushis and stir fried veggies in Thai sauce were delectable as well. A must go place for Japanese cuisine lovers.
Fabulous service and food!
A first visit. Lot of variety on the menu. Interesting food. Dessert tasted awesome. Ample options for vegatarians too.
Excellent food, great service. All the staff members were excellent Palsang is one of the best managers i have seen so far
Haiku has become our go to dine out option. We adore Asian food like anything. Haiku satisfies our Asian food urge which happens quite frequently.
We have tried multiple options from the menu. Starters Chilli Basil shrimp, Sesame fried chicken are flavoursome. Tom yum soup is light and soothing. Once, we tried Ebi tempura maki which is a Prawn tempura roll that was delicious. In main course their Thai curries are really good.
The decor is worth mentioning and gives your experience a very nice backdrop. Having a beer or good cocktail is a missing link right now.
But overall Haiku is a fabulous place to go to.
Wanted to check this place out for sometimes now. Went a little away from the conventional sushi with an avocado one which turns out to be good gamble. Vietnamese fried rice is must try and goes well with green Thai curry. The staff is courteous and helpful. Ambience is great but the lighting could be better. They got some interesting mix of ice teas Macha was my choice which a decent subtle flavoured one...end of of the day you don't want your drinks to steal away the taste of your food
This place is good for Asian cuisine lovers. It has open kichen with lovely interior. Loved the food. Authentic dishes with great vibe.
One of the best asian restaurant ever visited in hyderabad
One of the most authentic Asian food I’ve had in Hyderabad. Always go back for the vegetable maki, chill ban mee and bubble tea! Heaven!

Haiku has become a very popular restaurant in the Hyderabad food scene. It serves pan asian dishes and also showcases Indo-chinese creations.
❣
Go there to indulge yourself with some amazing Japanese sushi, they make it fresh upon order 😍.
The food is very close to authentic food from the country of its origin. The restaurant has put a conscious effort to make the food taste palatable to Indian taste buds. 😇
My order:
🍗Spicy miso glazed chicken wings
🍤 Singaporean black pepper prawns
🍝 Thai spicy drunken noodle
🍹 Matcha Lemonade
🥃Fresh fruit juice bubble tea
.
The ambience is quaint and has eye catching interior. It is a very spacious restaurant with 2 levels of seating.
There are two murals , one on each level. The ambience is similar to that of Japanese restaurants with a lot of work using wood and earthy colours.
Go there and try some of the rest Asian food in town.
Pretty interior. Service is kind of slow. All their vegetarian sushis taste the same. They don't play around with spice, when we asked for spicy soup we got really spicy soup! Overall, food was pretty good.

The ambiance is alright, not to fancy and not too cheap, pretty cozy and what really made it interesting was the stage set for the chef's to show off their skills. The food was gooooooood. The service was promt, the staff friendly and observant. I really loved the experience here and had a great time.
PS. It's the first restaurant to get 5 stars from me and that's mostly because the food was so good.
This Asian themed restaurant gives a exotic vibe and is situated in the centre of the city which is easy to locate to have some lip smacking Asian food! This is my favourite dish - Salmon Steak with teriyaki sauce. It's a little pricy but I think it's worth it. The salmon was super soft and the skin was crispy, the sauce had the right amount of flavours.
Overall a 5/5
Good place with a good looking ambience, serving traditional Japanese cuisine.
Ordered for the Yaki Soba, Combodian fried rice, salt and pepper water chestnuts, crispy vegetables and honeydew melon bubble tea.
Everything tasted amazing, every dish had its own unique flavour. Dessert menu was good as well but they had only three options available when I visited.
Gonna visit again for the tepanyaki and to try out the desserts!
One of the few places in Hyderabad I really enjoy eating at. The food is authentic and amazingly tasty here. Some of my personal favorites are the Sushi (all of them!), the soba noodles, and Ebi Furai. I have been here quite a few times and the only item I felt was overrated was the miso glazed chicken wings. Do try the volcano roll, the prawn tempura, and other sushi items.
Pro Tip: Try getting a place at the sushi bar. The chef's skills are unparallel and a treat to watch!
The best First experience🥰 of trying the Japanese Cuisine..🍣..Ahh... I loved everything from vegetable Maki to the Indonesian Chilli and the best was the Lavender Tea...💖💖💖💖💖
Starters were good, lotus stem, water chestnuts. However, the price was a bit higher for the portions served. One thing people should note in particular is that they are adding service charge of 7% (legally they should not charge) in the bill, when I asked them they agreed to provide me with a new bill minus the service charge (nevertheless I did tip them, but they should not add it in the bill ) .
I felt I would have been taken for a ride if I didn’t notice (FYI: I tipped them 5%)
Visited the place on a Saturday evening, despite I called for table reservations, the person who attended the call did not reserve the tables. The place looked like an authentic Japanese restaurant. The Tempura sushi was not so great but the avocado was much better. The. We tried dimsum which were a 3.5/5 . Some how it did not hit my taste buds. Overall it is a nice place with courteous staff .
There are a few places with good Japanese cuisine in hyderabad and Haiku is one of them
One of the BEST sushi in town
I ordered momos which were exquisite , the filling was amazing
They were juicy and the dough was really thin.
Thai noodles were average , could be better with a little more seasoning but the quantity was good
The corn sticks were a no no ,just didnt like them
Overall service is great ambience is clean calm and relaxing.
Definitely recommend you guys to check it out.
Value for money 4.5/5
One of the best Asian Cuisine restaurants in Hyderabad. It's a tad bit expensive, but the taste makes up for it. The sushi is a must try! The ambience is pretty good too, with warm lights!
It’s a really nice place
Food is really yummy
The best noodles I have ever had in my life
Has the best service and the person who attend was very polite I’m sry I don remember his name it ends with Ashish with some prefix I’m sorry
The food is great. Liked the ambience but it could be a bit unpleasant on a hot day because its outdoor with drapes. I'd recommend for Japanese food lovers. Will definitely try again.
Wonderful food and very peaceful ambiance. Loved the soup and sushi. Service was a little slow for my taste. But I would definitely be visiting again.
Impressed. This was my first time at Haiku.
Loved everything about the place. From their impeccable service, ambience and the star is ofcourse their food!
Most of all, we were very happy with our server Snehasish's service. He took time to explain every dish and took extra effort to accomodate our dietary requirements.
I only wish the restaurant had aircon.
Haiku is one of the few wonderful Pan-Asian delights set amidst the popular Banjara Hills.
From a range of sushi to premier pan asian food one can be assured that they would be satisfied.
A few dishes that I tried were : water chestnuts, Jasmine rice and green Thai curry. The watermelon-coconut combo was soothing and mind blowing at the same time.
it was a great time in Tuesday 😊 we went with friends and had dinner at haiku . amazing taste food and service was mind blowing specially thanks to Mr Ajit who great as and taken care of our table he suggested as very good sushi and some special Momo ❤️ it was wounderful time with my friend and some thing he suggested prawn shrimp curry it was mouth watering and definitely it's value for money great and keep it up the good work.
Visited Saturday night This is an amazing place with a casual ambiance the food is excellent delicious starters was world class love this place happy to have this gem in town
Its was awesome night, in haiku the ambience is nice and we ordered jade tofu and soups and Thai bubbles tea etc...it was fabulous. Thank Phira for your service and suggestions we loved it and will be back soon...
This is for all the Asian food lovers. If you're in Hyderabad, do check out Haiku, Banjara Hills @haiku.hyd (Instagram) .
You'll get a wide variety of sushi and noodles, and man, these are delicious🍱. Loved the vibe, and everything 😍
For first timers, spy out:
1. Ebi Tempura Maki sushi, which has fried prawns wrapped in sushi rice, served with wasabi and soya sauce. 🍤🍣
2. Thai Chilli Cilantro noodles. It is spicy, it is saucy, it is yummm🍜

Amazing taste. Food is mind blowing. Thai food at its best But ambience is a nightmare at night. Mosquitoes swarm to eat you depriving you of joy.
Heard about it and decided for a visit, its a pan asian restaurant located in banjara hills, it has a beautiful calm ambience with deemed lights it was a bit hot though may be for the weather they kept it low, coming to food we ordered singaporean prawns with black pepper, prawn lover,Thai fried rice , indonesian chilli noodles and also tried tender coconut with watermelon . Taste was amazing and it was worth the visit.
Best sushi place in Hyderabad!!!! I’ve tried sushi in other places but haiku offers the best. Prawn lover and Angel maki are my absolute favourites.
Best place to find some amazing Thai Food. Must try their Satay Chicken, Tangy Lotus Stem and Haiku Special Sesame Fried Rice. And, do not miss their Deserts.
Tried Sushi, Chicken Soup and some thai rice! Each o the dish was well prepared and had a great taste. Highly recommended place for people looking for SE Asian food in hyderabad
Amazing variety of food, but can work on the menu as there is no plethora of items. Bubble tea is good with mild sweetness, far better than the bubble teas which I have tried so far, had great expectations on Korean fried chicken but it is way too sweet for Indian palate.

One of the best restaurants for Asian Cuisine. Great ambience (we need more such casual ambience restaurants in HYDERABAD). Great food. The Sushi is definitely worth trying and so is the Tom Kha soup. Thai Green Curry rice is another good one here. The price is slightly above the average price but the food certainly is special and the overall experience is good.

Haiku
Well I'd like to start with the name originate from - A "Haiku" is Short Japanese poem it is a way of looking at the physical world and seeing something deeper, like the very nature of existence🥰
I have gleaned about this restaurant before making it to my list 😊 surprisingly, it didn't disappoint us.
While making my way to this place, I was thrilled with the location and the greenery around it. (first thing I always look for) Secondly, it's not difficult to even find. it's just in the center of Banjara Hills road no. 12, just above the Good earth 👌
Ambiance - 5/5 - It has the essence of Asian, Japanese and Thai restaurant theme with a simple form of the structure of decor and Lightings that gives a cozy feel and this one thing ☝ distinctive them from other lavish Asian restaurants ❤
Seating 5/5 🍽🥢🔪🍴. - it has colorful seating have good woodwork done table n chairs with cushions cover designs on and can accommodate 20- 30 ppl for dining out.
Service 4/5 - Staff was helpful and courteous to cater us to make our meal on time on our table 💕😄 but slow too if the crowd begin to increase so we overlooked it.
Food that we tried 🍱🥘🍲🍝🥫🥗
Drinks🍹🥤 5/5 - Raspberry sorbet with lemon soda - it tasted good with the right amount of sweetness.
Green apple iced tea🍹 with a perfect blend of everything ❤
Thai spicy Red Curry Fried Rice🍜 - 5/5 - it was cooked right and had its distinctive in taste too totally relished it 🥰
Thai style crispy vegetables 🥘🥗5/5 - it's too crispy and tasteful 👌
Dessert: 4/5🍰🍭🍮 Layered indulgence - it is made up of caramel, biscuits and cookie dough.... As it was not warm so we had to ask again to oven heat. If you want to try different in the desert spreads then you can go with this.
Overall our experience was amazing and worth visiting and dining in while gazing at their decors around. I can say I would love to visit them again for my love for this yummy Food 🤗😄
Will definitely recommend this to anyone who is looking to taste a great Thai Japanese Asian cuisine. 🤩😃🙌

Best sushi in town hands down.Maybe a bit hot due to the lack of air conditioning but will be perfect during a drizzle or slight breezy conditions.Needs a better drinks menu.
Enjoyed a quick lunch at Haiku. The Chilli Basil Tofu, Lemon Ice Tea and Hibachi Chicken Teppanyaki were fantastic. Great service and good value for money!
It’s a nice place to eat out. It’s got a really nice ambience. All low key, cute benches and you can see the chefs at work. We ordered two plates of sushi. One of them was very good. Something salmon? The other was a California something. That wasn’t something I enjoyed, because it had fish eggs on top. But if you like it, it’s great.

Lovely lunch at Haiku, Jubilee Hills.
One of the few places which does not falter for me. Great food, great ambience, very well spaced out and has a great sense of calm to it.☺️
Also one of the few places which has that beautiful natural light trickling through. Vitamin D, Vitamin D 😋
Tried the:
Hot Basil pepper silken tofu which was mind blowing good. Beautiful flavours.
Salt and pepper Water Chestnuts - a little undercooked and bland but was crunchy could definitely take some chili or a pepper hit.
My friend tried the Volcano Sushi roll (Salmon + chefs special sauce) and she loved it.
Then we had one of my favorites there the Veg Cambodian rice which was perfectly tossed in sauces and good amount of veggies to make it a meal by itself. If you need spicier version there is Indonesian rice and there is a 5 treasure Garlic Basil fried rice which is a little more bland. Lots of good options for all spice palates.
₹1780 +tip for very pleasant and attentive service by Umakanth.

This is such an amazing, quiet place with authentic Asian food options. The ambience is pleasant. Not too showy but very dimly lit. No unwanted noise or distraction. Really lives up to its name. Poetic, charming and tranquil. Just a place to celebrate gastronomy in the most subtle way. The food was the winner all the way. We were tasting these cuisines first time. So glad that we went there. The pad thai was the best thing we had. So crunchy and tangy. Really impressed with yasai drago maki sushi and tangy lotus stems as well. The staffs were polite. The vessels were they served water too were so originally Japanese. Would love to go there again.
Hi i visited Haiku last night for dinner.
The food was amazing. We ordered chicken tom yum soup, Korean fried chicken, Sushi platter(12pcs), prawn sushi platter, bubble tea, iced tea, sticky jasmine rice and Thai green curry with prawns.

Sushi was great in taste. A good place for sushi lovers i must say.
Top of it, i loved the vibe of this place.
We came here for lunch to celebrate an occasion. We had tom yum soup with prawns, super flavorful and delicious!. The fish and basil was just fine , there wasn't any basil flavour although basil leaves were there, Their haiku special rice is very simple and good. The Bao was also pretty good with chicken that was perfectly cooked . The beverages menu could improve. Our wait staff was extremely polite, friendly , he quickly made space fo me to handbag on the chair . Very alert staff :) the ambience is very beautiful because of the direct light that falls into this space and the amazing decor is highlighted . Valet parking is available. Would love to visit!
Ambiance was ok, service was very good, polite, humble. Veg sushi as starter was very good, mixed fruit mocktail delicious, spicy Thai noodles was definitely must try dish.
Had a perfect dining experience at HAIKU. It is definitely one of the best Pan Asian restaurant that I have dined in till date. Started with Tom Kha soup. Then tried Yasai Maki Sushi, Ramen, Watermelon mojito and Sugarcane mojito. Every dish was so delectable and freshly prepared. Presentation was top notch. Atmosphere is super relaxed and soothing. Special mention of the staff who are extremely professional and humble. Thank You team Haiku. Do keep it the same way.
Here sushi was really good…it was one of the veg sushi!
We tried soup, it was kinda okay!!!!
Third thing i dint like…it was broccoli and tofu with peanut chutney…or something…it was more of wasabi peanut but!!!
I really praise their staff and service…they were really good!!!
Food is very good and best Sushi in town
Service was excellent, JOY the restaurant manager was a pro 👍
First time I tried sushi and it was worth it.
I am so glad I tried sushi at haiku.
This is authentic place to try Japanese cuisine, from food to ambience everything showcased authentic Japanese feel.
Staff was super hospitable.
We tried salmon paradise roll and non veg ramen. Both tasted amazing 🥰
This is must visit place specially if you are new to this cuisine...haiku won't make you regret it.
Price was also reasonable.
Location was also good.
Overall experience 10/10

I visited this place a couple of times already - once with my wife and then again with a larger group. Both times, I was highly impressed by their food. I have never had better sushi in India and their Thai curries were also close to the original. The staff is friendly and the place has an informal vibe about it which I really enjoyed. Thanks for the wonderful food!
One of the first pan Asian restaurants in hyderabad which has maintained its consistency over the years , seating & lighting is good and warm lit, the Service team is courteous and pays attention to your order precisely.
We visit this place often for its khao suey , it’s better than most of the other places in town.
Their kimchi and pickles are also properly prepared and sour.
The prawn and chicken basil dim sums are very flavourful and served extremely hot, absolutely delectable when monsoon gives a surprise.
The Thai red curry with sticky rice is soothing and good on the palette.
It's an all-day-dining restaurant with chill ambiance and the food is just Amazing!
The food they prepare is fresh, unlike other restaurants who keep half food prepared.
The food tasted fresh, the ingredients were great, the quality of food was amazing and so was the flavour!
We ordered
Steamed edemame, water chestnut-mushroom-spinach Dimsum, Thai Green curry prawn curry with Yakimeshi rice.
All the items here apart from Thai green prawn curry were veg.
Not even a single food item was average, everything was great and I rarely give this compliment!
The staff was knowledgeable and also asked if we have any food allergies while ordering Thai curry!
