We really loved the food at Firdaus and service of all support staff and management-especially Chef Jahangir Khan and Kenneth, who were excellent!! Our Son loved playing with Kenneth and he was a very nice host! We had all our meals at Firdaus as the vegetarian food here was excellent and much beyond our expectations Everything we tried here is worth a praise, we tried the Veg Kebab Platter (Paneer Tikka was too good) , Dal Makhani, Papad Wale Kofte , Garlic Naan, Pudina Paratha and Butter Kulcha ! The Veg Hyderabadi Biryani was nice too, especially the Salan! Everything excellent! The Desserts chef sent for us as compliments were very nice as well- Double ka meetha which was a unique version of shahi tukda and kulfi tasted great! They also have a live gazal in the evening which made the ambience pleasant and a memorable experience! Firdaus will probably be one of the best restaurants where we have visited!!

Firdaus is a luxury dining restaurant in one of the city’s most ornate 5 Star hotels, Taj Krishna. We went there as a family to celebrate an occasion. Overall we had a good time eating and enjoying the ambience, but the service was rather disappointing. To put it bluntly, the waiters behaved like ones in that of a Udupi restaurant. They lacked poise and etiquette. This came as a shocker from a restaurant like Firdaus. The food didn’t take too long to arrive. We ordered the much hyped Kabab-e-Firdaus, Haleem with Sheermal 🫓, Nalli Gosht , Dum ka Murgh🥘, Garlic Naan, Paratha and the Dessert Platter. The award for the best haleem in Hyderabad goes to Firdaus, hands down. I could just eat more and more of this gourmet food and finish off with my dinner…well I’m going to do this next time :). Their haleem is mild, yet oozing with and flaunting the finest flavours of this popular local delicacy. A shout-out to their chef for this exquisite dish 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻. The rest of the food was also good, but not something I would want to come back for. I do recommend their dessert platter to get a taste of everything. Their desserts were remarkable, and the portion size was decent. Ah…I got so engrossed with writing about their food, that I almost forgot about the live ghazals playing in the background. The choice of ghazals sure made the occasion nostalgic and elevated the mood, but the quality of singers was not great. The tune would go off beat most times, which was much to our dismay. The behaviour of the singers was not very dignified and one could often see them arguing or being sternly instructed by the manager, which was not a good sight with the backdrop of the swanky ambience.
