If you’re looking for some authentic Hyderabadi breakfast which is normally a heavy one the head to this iconic spot of old city, must try- bheja fry and paya with naan.
![Zomato]( "Recensione")
One of the famous Old city joints offering authentic Hyderabadi dishes. This has been one of the iconic places since ages. This joint is open from 4 am in the morning to late midnight. They serve one of the best Breakfast dishes. As busy as it could be, the tables are always occupied and the place is not tidily maintained.
Tried their Biryanis couple of times and was very impressed. As a part of our Old city Breakfast outing, initiated our breakfast from here. We settled down to order their Signature Dishes Malai Paya, Bhaji Gurda, Bheja Masala, Nahari and Butter roti. Single Nahari portion divided among three was very much in quantity. The flavor was bang on with the right flavor through out.The Malai Paya was delicious and the flavor of the malai and the stickiness of the Paya could be felt in every bite. The portion was very much suffice for 3 people. The Bhaji gurda was excellent and the bhaji being prepared with the leafy vegetables gave a unique flavor to the dish. The gurda pieces were very less and we had to ask the server to get additional pieces( he did not charge for them though). The Bheja masala was bang on, with the tenderness of the bheja and lip smacking masala.The rotis were piping hot and thoroughly enjoyable with all of the curries. Their other Breakfast options too are drool worthy!
Nothing beats the gastronomical extravaganza early in the morning. The super thin butter naan, malai paya and kheema.
"We didn't know we were making memories, we just knew we were having fun."
Been to dis place one month back after hearing so much about their malai paya..skip the ambiance..if you love hyderabadi food will definitely enjoy the food..we ordered malai paya,tandoori roti,chicken dum biryani..malai paya tastes super yumm..will soon try other dishes too
The best Bheja fry to eat in Hyderabad, which cannot be find anywhere....
An age old restaurant serving some of the rarely available dishes.. quick services, amazing taste.. a perfect place to experience authentic cuisines.. however if you are looking for a luxurious dining, this is not the place for you
Malai paya- a must try
Will definitely visit over again to try out the other dishes..
P.S.
Mutton Dalcha- available only on Friday
Keema- available from 2.30 AM - 10.00 AM
The hotel is near Madina circle.The best place to have these kind of food as breakfast in the early morning.One must try the food really tasty
Liked the chicken curry with two kinds of gravies. The staff was polite enough to customise the food for my friends from another country
For the time ever, I had nahari as a curry. With butter naan it was out of the universe. Their mutton biryani was a super duper hit too.
The ambience isn't great. But who cares when the food is all that you've always cared for.
Do try!
been here around 5-6am and ordered malai paaya, kheema masala, bheja fry and naan, all are good malai paya could be better and also better to reduce the colour in it.
too much crowd, no cleaning on tables, better to get takeaway.
Where to start with
Amazing breakfast choices with authentic baji gurda, bheja fry ,kheema and romali
All where amazing and tasty, nothing to complain about.
To finish it we had the irani chai with kesar
Which they call it as kesar chai
Great food
Great place
Dont miss it
Restaurant looks small and older but it had amazing food stuffs to must try. I had Chicken Majestic, Malai Paaya masala and butter naam. I really enjoyed the yummy taste of Chicken Majestic, nicely and flavourful preparation. And at last finished with Kesar Chai, restaurant is known for.
Well, you can eat Biryani almost 24x7 at this place!
You get Paya, Paya Masala, Bheja fry, Kheema masala, and almost any Hyderabadi Breakfast from 02:30 in the morning!
But I would suggest you to eat Paya from 03:30! Most of the times I felt it was very tasty after 03:30!
If you're going with a group of 4+ people, then you need to order these for sure - Paya Masala, Kheema, Bheja, Paya for sure!
The prices are reasonable and they accept ONLY CASH!
Food - 5/5

After a long wait - I recently got to visit this legendary place with a big group of friends. More people means more dishes - so we ordered two portions of malai paya & two portions of bheja fry. It was just out of the world and I can't wait to go back and have the same again.
Been to this place for early breakfast.
Ordered butter naan with malai paya.
Tastes superb.
Most of them ordered Bheja fry, puri and paya.
huge crowd@ 7 am.
Overall worth a try.
Legendary place near Charminar area specially for breakfast.. their malai paya is the best selling item and we ordered that along with some naan. Food was good..i liked the gravy of paya quite a lot. Quantity is generous.They also sell some square naan which looked good. Their kesar tea is amazing. Pricing is cheap.Very crowded all the time. They are running almost all through day.
Best hotel near charminar , hd tried kheema and gurda bhaji along with roomali roti all wr too awsm , must visit if ur nearby charminar nd really very pocket friendly
Be it a late night dinner or early morning breakfast or any time of the day
And when you have these strong desire / cravings for perfect non veg food this is the place to go
Their malai paya and bheja fry are to die for
And not only in Ramzan season but this place serves good food through out the year
And their biryani has little extra masala but it tastes very good
And the crazy part is that it is open 24/7 😍

"A gem of Hyderabadi cuisine"
Hotel nayaab is legendary place of nizami tastebuds ,it's mostly busy throughout the Ramadan season I recently visited this hotel during Ramadan was absolutely delighted with its delectable nizami food
My takes
Paya :well it has to be the one of the best dishes to try which has succulent meat which just enhances the dish even more appetizing
Beja fry : as soon as you have a bite it melts as butter the flavours of the dish is unique in its own
With them I had tandoori roti which was a lovely combo to opt
The restaurant was doesn't have much of an ambiance. I heard about this place that It is famous for Nonveg Breakfast. As NV lover i want to try it. Overall i am satisfied with the food...
I ordered Kesari Chai, Bheja Fry, Mutton Kheema and Butter Nans.
Item wise rating in my Point of view
Kesari Chai: 4/5
Bheja Fry: 5/5
Kheema Fry: 3.5/5 (Tomato Flavour was dominating Kheema Flavour)
Butter Nan: 3/5
Tried paya and egg pudding. Loved the taste of paya, it was really delicious. They also have a AC restaurant but ambience is not great.
Service 2.5/5
Food 4/5
Ambience 2/5
Amazing place.
Been here for seher tried dalcha, roti with bheja fry, kheema masala and nayab special chicken all of them were excellent and the biryani mutton was also perfect.
Overall a perfect food place for food lovers . Pricing is worthy.

Our Nayaab experience was beyond epic. All my dreams came true in 45 mins flat. Visited Nayaab in the last week of Ramzan 2019, that is May end. Of course the entire place was bustling with people.
The restaurant doesn't have much of an ambiance. It's very basic. We were lucky to big sitting right next to a huge fan type of a cooler, just around the entrance. They mentioned that there was a family section indoors but we preferred to stick to the first table we caught.
Food wise
Nayaab is famous for its kesar chai, hot roomalis and square naans, bheja fry, paya. Everything costs between inr 120-200 per dish.
1. Bheja fry : too amazing. Semi gravy, reddish gravy, delicious with their hot rotis. One serving would be enough for one person 5/5
2. Bheja masala : this a brown based gravy, also good but my first choice would be the bheja fry 4/5
3. Gurda : all the curries are different and really yummy, meat quantity is good. Do not miss this as it is not available easily in other places 4/5
4. Paya : this is a relatively bigger dish, about 4-5 pieces. Great marination. I would suggest roti or khichdi as an accompaniment 4.5/5
5. Mutton chaap : or mutton chops, brown gravy. Also a relatively larger portion like the paya. 4/5
6. Breads/naans/rotis : cannot stop thinking about these. So hot and fresh. All just melted in our mouths. Top choice would be roomalis, then tandoori, then their famous square Naan. 5/5
7. Kesar chai : I was too full for chai, but my friends highly recommend this as well 5/5
We paid about INR 200 per person for this brilliant meal. Peak value for money. It just cannot get better than this. Service was quick so was the table turnover.
Looking forward to return very soon.

I was on a Ramzan Food Walk with my friends , and true to its name , Nayaab will be in my list now whenever I would visit Charminar Area, although we couldn’t lay hands on the square naan , but our spread was really delicious, the butter naans were wafer thin yet soft , the paya malai masala was perfectly cooked , the dum chicken masala was an amazing mix of succulent chicken pieces & gravy. The ambience also is quite decent.
Was here couple of days ago during our Ramadan food walk. This was our first stop.
We ordered -
Bheja fry
Malay paya
Tandoori roti
Bheja fry was so chunky, so delicious. It was perfect.
Malay Paya was amazing. The gravy was so rich, flavorful and scrumptious. It was finger licking good.
Had to finish it up with a dessert - egg pudding it was. Not a big fan of it.
If you're looking for a place serving amazing hyderabadi delicacies at affordable prices, this place is for you. You won't regret visiting them.
It was like ticking a bucket list item,being at Charminar during Ramadan to taste the exquisite food that this place offer. I went with my family and a friends who were from Hyderabad
Having read about this non fancy place had very high expectations for the food and boy they lived upto it. We ordered for dum ka mutton,tala hua gost,bheja fry and malai paya along with roti and rumali. Just one word..AWESOME..be it the delicate paya,or the melting tala hua gost or the exquisite bheja or the flavourful dum the taste just grows on you and liger for a long time. We ordered for the biryani which was also outstanding. Hope.we had a Hyperloop between Pune and Hyderabad and wish I could travel every day. Hats of to the City of Nizams
3 AM in de morning.. 30 kms away... And still you are excited... Wat else can it b if not food.. Yes.. I was nt dreaming..
Definitely not a place wer u can expect ambience.. It s an old hyderabadi store in t he old city... The place is dirty but who cares..
Service s really fast as people come n go out in heaps... Wat was surprising was de crowd at dat time and the people working made me think if i had crossed the seas and entered a region of a completely different time zone..
The food was obviously delicious.. Obviously because after seein so many people throngin in I realised dat t s somethin which doesnot come out as a shock.. Bheja fry and bhaji gurda was a delight.. But i missed kheema... There is always a second chance.. *fingers crossed*
Rotis and breads : tandoori roti
Main course : bheja fry, bhaji gurda
Service : 3
Food : 5
Value for money : 4
Overall : 4
Bottomline : Aur ek "nayaa"b experience
Came across this restaurant in curly tales and thought of giving a try . Travelled 14 long kilometres on a Saturday evening for this restaurant . Face a bit difficulty in finding out restaurant, it is beside pista house in Ghanzi bazar near Charminar .
Malai paya : we called restaurant before hand to ensure it is available . He has confirmed that restaurant opens at 4 A.M and closes at 1 A.M and throughout it is available . Malai paya just melted in our mouths . Loved it .
Tandoori Roti : expected it would be hard but to our surprise it was soft and very tasty 👌
Mutton biriyani : not too spicy perfect blend of all the spices . Must try .
There is nothing about ambience . place is maintained clean and neat . The family section is separate .
Will definitely visit this restaurant once again to try their beja fry . It costed only 410 bucks for two people 🤩🤩
Tandoor roti
Butter naan
Dalcha
Kheema
Dum ka chicken
Rice
Bhaja fry
Early morning 3:00 sehar . Loved the food . Must try. Surly I will recommend
Liked the zafrani chai, mutton curry and haleem here. Try the khameeri roti with the curry. It's different. The haleem was one of the best I had in Hyderabad. Would recommend this place.
Been here for breakfast. Selected Malai Paya & Butter Naan. Malai Paya was tasty but disappointing, because all the marrow was dissolved in the curry, and we got less Paya meat to eat. But the gravy was lip-smacking and creamy. On the other hand, butter naan was fresh and hot. The moment they served it, the aroma of butter hit us. Naan was so buttery, you can eat it alone.
Will Visit them again soon to try their other breakfast items such as bheja fry, gurda and kheema.
Assalamualaikum warahmatulahi was bara ka tu hu your hotel is best your Zomato aapwill in hight from Dubai Mumbai Kolkata Khammam
And banglour
Set your alarms to wake up early with a group to full start with mutton stew with a naan. It’s paya at Nayaaab!!
The best paya soup or shorba I can say in hyderabad with alots of spices and mouth burning hot! Recommanded to have with a naan which is also hot available only in the mornings. You also get puri and kichidi with a variety of chicken and mutton curries in the early morning. Mutton kheema and bhazi gurdha The rates are very affordable. We should try the biryani also here available from afternoon. The irani tea is also very good.
The service was too quick and the place to good for a small group of friends to try the spices and hog on having meat. The ambiance is good looks small from out but enough to seat and serve many. Bookmark this place and one should try this place for sure.
Nice kababs tanduri n grill items,old times- from 80’s it was only one famous name for haleem n Nahari
Still it is famous coz of taste n hygiene
I Love Shammi kababs n patthar ka gosht
Quality food,tastes delicious awesome n aroma of spices makes U more hungry
Perfectly balance of spices in biryani
I just loved it
Eat your breakfast like an Asli Hyderabadi!
With lots of noise around brunches and breakfast at cafe's this place has been hidden among the foodie community.
Ambience doesn't excite me much but the food here does. Located in narrow lanes of old city this cafe operates from dusk to dawn.
Mostly known for it's early morning breakfast this place also serves pocket friendly Hyderabadi Biryani. I visited this place in the early hours to have breakfast.
🍽️ Paya soup with Naan and Malai Paya with tandoori roti were our choices.
Lamb trotters are simmered for long hours to make them tender along with spices to make the Paya soup. Soup when complimented with Naan turns be to be an excellent breakfast.
Malai Paya is altogether different variant of Paya soup. It's not soupy like Paya but looks like any typical restaurant curry. Tender Lamb trotters in the creamy gravy along with tandoori roti was lip smacking. Tandoori Roti was all maida which disappointed me a bit.
After long time We visited this restaurant on Saturday mid night they served excellent biryani at late night also, it is old restaurant before separation shadab also part of this. They served excellent food especially biryani with superb aroma and flavour.
I have heard a lot about this place at ghansi bazaar on the way to Charminar. It is especially known for its Kesar chai.
I had one single chicken biryani which was good with all the necessary flavours of the spices.
I had the Kesar chai which was amazing and one could feel the Kesar flavour.
It was a good experience and I would rate this place as
Food - 4/5
Ambience - 3/5

Well , as a newbie in the City of Nizam's , I've always wanted to explore the night life and local food and there came a day when both of em came together.
I was taken around old city by a few colleagues and we landed up here at around 3pm or so.
Before I tell you anything, lemme make it clear that I come from Chennai where the city's night life is close to 0.
Driving past the entrance of the place my face suddenly frowned while the shutters were all closed and when my boss's car took a turn and entered a small street I became inquisitive.
That's exactly when I knew we were gonna make an entry through the Kitchen of the place and I have to say that the moment I stepped in, my olfactory sensors were saturated with the aroma of Spices and flavours.
We slowly passed by keenly observing whats going on , took a table. From what I expected, the place was decent and bearably neat.
What we had :
Mutton Paya - flavourful
Sheermaal - Bread had with Paya.
Butter Naan
Tandoori Roti was huge and so soft.
Bheja fry
Bhaji Gourda
The taste of the dishes felt really good and authentic and left me Wow.
Lastly we had Badam chai which was one deadly drink to bring a midnight meal to end. With the richness of Badam and Energy of the chai, Badam chai is something that instantly became my favourite.
One more place that I have found in Hyderabad where we can get the best authentic Hyderabadi Biryani. This restaurant is located at Ghansi bazaar near Charminar. Though it doesn't have a great and well ordered ambience, it will win your hearts for it's food.
We have ordered Hyderabadi Dum biryani full and it easily fulfilled the appetite of 2 adults. Biryani was Soo yummy and rice cooked very well. Without even tasting I just fallen for the small from the biryani. And also the chicken in biryani was cooked very good and it was literally melting in your mouth.
So when you visit Charminar next time do try the biryani from this hotel. You will really enjoy the taste of it. And the cost is soo reasonable that you can get a single chicken biryani just for Rs.90/- and anyone can afford for it. I'm looking forward to taste more varieties, specially nawabi food from this restaurant.
Awesome food at Nayaab... enjoyed the talawa Gosht, malai paya and the famous Kesar Tea...
Chicken 65 was also awesome.. feeling hungry ar night visit Nayaab
One of the topmost hotel in the old city.Food will be hygiene and tasty.It will be worth your money.One more point, Rocky and mayur from LIVING FOODZ had visited this hotel for their breakfast.
Nayaab...I find it most unique place in Hyderabad....as they serve pure Hyderabad Cuisine....Here I tried gurda bhaji, Malai Paya is a must try, Mutton Biryani is also very good here.
The place is known for its authentic nawabi food.
One of the lovely food at the restaurant is their paya soup.Valye for money and authenticity.
Old city, old traditional taste- nothing exciting.
Doesn't pamper the taste buds as expected
Was there for breakfast.. Sheermal is good roti was better, keema was good but not the paya or nihari
Service 4/5
Taste 3/5
Ambience 2/5
Quantity 4/5

This place for the true foodie because whenever you want to eat just walk in you will find your favourite dish and most delicious food which I personally love is egg pudding which is the most delicious food and this dish is mad at home of the place owner
ordered chicken biryani and tandoori chicken.
always value for money. nice quantity. quality is fine.
tandoori chicken can be improved was burnt (25%)
taste - 8/10
quantity - 10/10
value for money -10/10
A true gem famous for its authentic hyderabadi food. Located in ghansi bazar, old city.
Whenever I am in a mood of eating bheja fry and talahuwa ghost, the only place that comes to my mind is this place. At my last visit tried my asusual tasting dishes, at first tried their talahuwa ghost, which was luscious in taste and then ordered their bheja fry, which was outstanding in taste and also tried their chicken 65, which was good too. Furthermore, tried their chicken biryani, which was ok and at last ended our meal with zeera rice and dal fry.
best taste good quality but very less quantity in chicken masala

I decided to kickstart my weekend by exploring Nayab near Charminar in Hyderabad, curious to experience their breakfast spread. The star of the show was undoubtedly the Mutton Paya—a flawless dish that left nothing to critique. The flavors were exquisite, and finding a flaw was nearly impossible. However, the accompanying Sheermal bread, meant for dipping into the Paya, fell short. Its texture was disappointingly tough, detracting from the overall experience.
Thankfully, the Tandoori Roti served at Nayab was a highlight, offering a commendable taste when enjoyed fresh at the restaurant. Yet, it's worth noting that the quality slightly diminished when packed for takeout.
The Malai Paya, unfortunately, didn't live up to expectations during my visit. I'd advise giving it a pass unless there have been improvements since then. On the brighter side, the Beja Fry held its own among the standout dishes with its excellent taste and preparation.
A cup of Irani Chai was a delightful addition to the meal, boasting an excellent flavor profile. However, the Osmania Biscuits served alongside seemed to be of old stock, lacking the freshness that would have complemented the chai experience.
Regrettably, I missed out on their Biryani, as it's only available after 12:30 pm—a reason to plan another visit to sample this highly anticipated dish.
In essence, Nayab near Charminar offers a mixed bag of culinary experiences. While some dishes like the Mutton Paya and Beja Fry excel, others such as the Sheermal and Malai Paya might need a bit of improvement to match the standard set by their best offerings. If you're there for breakfast, aim for the classics and wait until the Biryani hour strikes to savor their renowned specialty.
Nayaab has really given me an experience to remember. Their mutton biryani was supple and gave an intense aroma. Every grain of rice has spice and flavour. You could feel the heat in the atmosphere. We even tried their malai paya and bheja fry. The bheja fry was as soft and supple as a pillow, it's a must try. Their Paya has great flavour but, the gravy of the malai paya was plain and basic. The staff was quick and helpful. There is a special air conditioned section for families to sit and dine in. Must visit at least once.
Probably the best Paya Nahari ever!!
Bheja fry and naan!
The malai on top of Paya seeps into the sheermal when you dip into it.
The bone just falls off the meat and don’t need to bash the bone for the marrow inside.
It just drops like Makhan
Have fun n relish it
I went there with a hype given by my friend.
After visiting and tasting food I get to know that he is correct.
Food taste is too good. Mustry malai Paya & keema kichidi.
First time tastéd Bheja fry, it's also good 👍.
Try Butter naan also.
Awesome food. Authentic Hyderabadi breakfast. Opens as early as 6am. Try to go into the AC section at the back of the hotel for a great dining experience. Portion sizes are just right so that you can have multiple dishes. Ask for parking guide.
Hotel Nayaab is one of the best places to visit for Non Vegetarian lovers especially when it comes to Biryani and Paya.
Food : Malai Paya with Butter Naan, Nihari Special Mutton Biryani, Double ka Meetha, Puding and Katha Firni
The location of hotel is quite complex but one can easily reach with help of Google map. It's quitely situated in one of the most busiest roads in Old Hyderabad near Charminar.
Food : 5/5
Ambience: 4/5
Service : 4/5
We were really happy to eat. It really blew our taste and took it to the next level.
Recommended Dishes Must Try : Malai Paya, Nihari Special Mutton Biryani, Double ka Meetha and Katha Firni
Amazing. Yummy. Spicy. Buttery. Delicious. Must try every item available there. Never miss if you are in Hyderabad.
I went alone and realized i needed to have a group to experience the food here so that i could try all the delicacies Hotel Nayab has got to offer. I just had kalimirch bejha-fry and rotti. It was fine, but i wish i was with a group so that i could dig into a plate of malai paaya. Family space is available, and i couldn't find any price menu there.
Must for IRANI TEA & MUTTON(GOAT) BIRYANI
Hotel Nayab is old school hotel. But food is really tasty and memorable. I recommend Irani tea.Never had such quality tea in hyderabad.
Mutton (goat) biryani & Paya with Sheermal i had were so full of taste.
Cons: Not maintained hygiene. small size coacroaches are roaming. Washing utensils in open near tables is not of good impression.
The best place for non veg breakfast. Don’t expect too much it will be busy crowded and food is good 👍. Always be sure what you want to eat otherwise they’ll get whatever.

Today, I reached Hotel Nayaab early in the morning by 4:40 AM. By seeing 👀 the crowd, I was shocked. It was huge, no seat on the ground and 1st floor. I waited till 5:20 am. Later, I got 1 seat and started ordering the food.
1. Malai Paya - 1
I enjoyed the paya 5/5
2. Butter Naan - 3
Regular taste with huge butter 🧈 5/5
3. Keema Curry - 1
The taste of the keema curry was sweet. Not suggested. 2.5/5
4. Beja Fry - 1
I enjoyed the taste 😋. 5/5
5. Nihari Paya
Wow, what a taste 😋 it was amazing. 5/5
6. Carmal Pudding - 1
The taste was awesome. I give 5/5 rating.
The taste was good, but the price was high. The waiters don't listen to our order. They used to say regular food list and bring their own list even though they won't listen to our words.
The waiters scam was high. I ordered a parcel item that was 1 Beja fry, 2 caramel pudding. But he gave me 1 beja fry and 1 keema extra. And they charged for all. After coming to my place, I got to know that they charged high.
