Till my initial years in Hyderabad all I knew was Hyderabad is well known for its version of biryani.... but to all those outsiders like me Hyderabad is not just about those biryanis😛
I was invited for a session here and I can say this place very well reflects Hyderabadi food in the best way.
This is said to be one of the oldest restaurant in the city ..
Appetizers:
The very first dish served to us was steaming hot 'Marag with some butter Naan' and to be honest it blew my mind off. Marag is a Hyderabadi thin mutton soup prepared with tender mutton with bone and is exceptionally flavourful. This is also one of the attraction as a starter in Hyderabadi weddings.
I was so impressed with this dish that I had to go once again just to have Marag and Naan.
The next servings were some non veg starters-
Chinese platter: this assorted platter had everything from varieties of chicken to fish and prawns.
Other starters served were Grilled Chicken Starters, Mutton Grilled Platter and Chicken 65 and we're absolutely amazing too.
Mutton Shikampur and Shammi: was absolutely delectable, the tender mince of mutton was mouth melting with droolworthy spices.
Main Course:
Dum ka mutton is absolutely mouthwatering with rich gravy and tender mutton cubes. I loved it with piping hot butter naans.
Mix Mandi and Zaffrani Biryani is their signature, and is a must have.t
Mix Mandi is my personal favourite, the flavourful and aromatic rice with tender and juicy mutton, chicken, fish portions. This was the first time I tried Mandi and I instantly got obsessed.
The quantity of food here is really good with authentic Hyderabadi experience.
The OG Arabic Chicken Shawarma comes at an pleading price of ₹140/-
This is the SHAWARMA u can trust on, if this place says feel in Saudi they do mean it. Also comes in khubuz...It had real pickle n french fries in it and if you think the price is too high dontchu dare it's almost a meal for 2 people in ₹140/-, the chicken was marinated with very basic spices and not tandoori masala...Go Go Go grabb ur Saudi shawarma from the Capital hotel at moosarambagh.

Capital needs Absolutely no introduction, one of the famous and most known place in the city. Over the years it has been a very popular place and till date it is still one of the top places to dine in and enjoy Authentic Hyderabadi Cuisine. My last visit here was almost a year ago and now finally after many months i got to visit here. Last sunday me and my Friends went here for Lunch feast and the experience was Outstanding.
The Ambiance is beautiful, spacious and has comfortable seating.
We started with Their House Specialty, Mutton Marag. This is hyderabad's second love after Biryani. Very few rare place serve this dish, capital is one of them. The marag was absolutely delicious, mutton was succulent and cooked perfectly, the broth was thick, packed with flavours and good amount of ghee added. Bone marrow was so freaking tender, The quantity was perfect for 1 person was damn good. This is supposed to be eaten with Charcoal naan, but here its served Tandoori or Butter naan which was good, For all the Marag lovers, Here's the best Place for y'all to try this pretty dish.
Mutton Platter: Phattar ka ghosht, Boti Kebab and Seekh Kebab. A satisfying meat platter! The phattar ka ghosth was probably one of the bests i've had in a while, Seekh kebab was smokey and delicious, Boti kebab was Juicy and super delicious. Its a meat paradise for hardcore meat lovers.
Chinese Platter: Another House speciality, Assorted portions of Prawns, fish, chicken manchuria, schezwan and 65. Tasted good, Prawns were my most favorite among them. This platter was amazing too!
Mutton Shikampuri and Shammi: Delicious and Melt in mouth, little sourness. So both was slightly be improved, otherwise they taste really good.
Grilled Chicken platter: One more mind blowing platter, assorted kebabs of chicken like, Lahsuni, Pahadi, Hariyali, Malai and half grill. This was the best platter, yet again the Quantity was perfect and kebabs were juicy and smokey. The platters here are absolute Amazing!
Dum ka Mutton: Perfectly cooked meat, soft and tender, gravy was spicy and flavourful, goes good with Butter naan, one of their famous mutton curries.
Mix Mandi: Brilliant mandi, Flavoured rice and assorted meat portions like Chicken, Fish and mutton, good quantity and well presented. Had mandi here for the first time and it turned out to be good!
Zaffrani Mutton Biryani: Ending the day with a wonderful flavourful Biryani, Meat was spot on cooked perfectly, long grains of rice used which was fluffy, The masala was very good, Biryani has always been Fantastic here.
Overall the experience was amazing as always, great service by Abdul Kaleem and his crew. The place is safe, Hygienic and beautifully maintained.
