I had meaning to go to this place, irrespective of the thrashing it had been receiving for service, attitude and at times food also.
So gathered a friend, his son & my father in law as guinea pigs landed up one sunday afternoon.
It was around 12.30 and we were the first people there, so the service was prompt and efficient. After looking at the menu, we decided to go the whole hog ordering everything that looked nice.
Mutton galawti kebabs (excellent, soft and just the thing with onions & roti), kakori kebabs (excellent with roomali roti), wrap mutton sheek (good but can be avoided if ordering other kebabs) along with the healthy whole wheat roomali rotis.
This was followed up by Machli lasooni tikka (amazingly moist, succulent); murgh golmirch kebab (very good with the tikka just done right & spices seeping thru), Haleem (can definitely give Paradise in Hyderabad a run for their money) and Nihari ghost (I did not taste this personally, but the orgasmic look on the face of others told me how good it was). This was followed by the Dum ghost lucknowi biryani which was again excellent, though personally I prefer the calcutta version of biryani myself:).
By this time we were stuffed completely with no place for anything else. However, my friend has a sweet tooth and wanted to try the shahi tukda, but the captain & server were persuasive enough to push – shahi tukda, zaafrani malai phirni and Jaamun – o – gul which was ecstasy personified.
We left fully satiated with promises of coming back. Whilst I have not had the time to do so, we have definitely ordered during the recent India vs England match and the service as well food was superb.

Itne achhe review mat likhha karo. I am tempted to rush there right now!
Completely true Kakori House is a meal I Highly relish. The Kakori & Galouti Kababs of Awadh are to die for. A friend of mine runs GoGobble.in, he has partnered with Kakori House and other 200 restaurants. It is primarily a food ordering portal, we would like your views on the site from a Foodie’s perspective Kakori House GoGobble also has a Call In No. 9819553970
Hi Heta, Did check out the website, looks interesting. Saw some names in Andheri west that have never heard 🙂 Wondering as a resident of Lokhandwala/Oshiwara, what would be the USP of the site for me? But would try it out for the next party. Thanks.
