Great place to have Galoti Kebabs. Authentic place is tundey but taste and overall experience is similar.

Review №2

The biryani is amazing. In kebabs, I liked boti kebab and to some extent galawati kebab. Seekh and shami kebab can be avoided.

The Chicken Kalimirch was on the saltier side but the chicken tikka was really great. The staff is very humble and polite. The ambience is good for family and friends.

Hard for any one place to live up to a lot of hype, but Dastarkhwan, which came highly recommended by many folks, did not disappoint in any way. Id never been to Lucknow and only had time for one dinner, so I had to make the most of it. I tracked down this place and enjoyed every minute of it. As I write this review more than a year and 7,500 miles later, I can still smell and taste the food I ate that night (so hungry all of a sudden!). Wow. Highly, highly recommended. Hope to go back at some point. Might even visit Lucknow just for an encore.

This is an awesome place to have Non-veg dishes. We havent tried many items cz we are already full while doing Lucknow food tour..We tried mutton boti there and that was really delicious. The dish looked simple but it has all those beautiful flavours that explored inside mouth.The ambiance of the restaurant was good, didnt have to wait for long time. Price was also reliable..We also tried Shami Kabab, Galawati Kabab and Mutton Biryani on our 2nd visit on October 2021. Everything was very delicious...Follow my journey with food on Instagram: @foodoroshik.Images are subjected to copyright

Never stepping my foot at this place ever again . Dastar which is opp daal me kala . Ac one .First - coz i was alone i was made to share table woth random people (its ok waa busier than usual )Second - service is quick but staff is rude .Even though i Had to order other dishes and my frnds were gonna join me later, theyRefused to serve an extra kebab when asked for ! Left my plate in between .In terms of food , quality , service , behaviout The non -ac one located few steps ahead is way better than this one .Surprisingly both are same ! But how they treat customers is totally different .

Location : Dastarkhwan has multiple outlets all over Lucknow, this particular one is located in Hazratganj, near Tulsi Cinema, very close to KD Singh stadium. The plus point of this particular location is that there are a few other famous eateries just adjacent to it, including Masi Biryani just in case you wanna try and compare.Ambience : This is a small outlet with a small sitting area which is NON AC, hence maybe a bit uncomfortable during summer days, mainly popular for takeaways.Food: Must say definitely live upto the hype. Chicken Masala is extraordinary, quarter plate is sufficient for 2 people. Although famous for Chicken biryani, we tried the Mutton biryani which was amazing. Prices are very reasonable.

Review №11

Tasty and awesome foods on reasonable prices are available in the hotel. Please go there in group at least two persons. Why because the tables are arranged with four chairs. And one person will have to share the table with other that is a kind of awkward moment. But anyways the place is good for repeated visits in Lucknow

Authentic taste of mughlai cuisine. Burst of flavours. Chicken changezi and parantha a great combo. Though there is ample of seating but it is moreover Jam packed and one may find it hard to get a seat. Prices of this outlet is lower than other Dastarkhwan outlet.Scooter parking available.Overall the place is highly recommended.

Once open a time it had name and fame for authentic mogulai recipes but now now they have been thick skinned.Keep taste aside its not very different from other locations but, they dont at all maintain a good hygienic place.....its not a place for a family.I suggest them to maintain good hygiene by having good pest control, clean furniture, clean utensil and clean plates 🍽

It is one of the best place to eat Chicken Masala with Mughlai Paratha, Galawati Kebab with Mughlai Paratha and Biryani. It can put anyone in intense love, and can play drums of taste on your taste buds. 😋 Proud of Awadh. Proud to be part of it. Trust me! You will regret, if you are in Lucknow and havent tried it yet.

Authentic taste, fresh & properly cooked meal. Is always delicious. The quantity served is always way more than normal & the price is very reasonable. Also, in spite of being non vegetarian, youll never feel bloated or like filled up too much. Basically, the cooking medium/oil they use is great. Always good quality.

Review №63

3 stars because i do not feel tastes of old kebab here anymore. This used to be place of best kebabs in lucknow for me for many years. But last few cisits has been disappointing. Maybe my taste buds has changed or may be their chef has changed but i dont love kebab as much as i used to do back in the days. I am sure if i have reviewed this in 2010 i would have given it 5 stars without even thinking.Anyway this is a good place to grab kebab and masala chicken with biryani. They have authentic taste snd kebab is delicious and tender. Salad they give is great too. Try kebab with mughlai paratha. Thats best i have had in lucknow or anywhere else. This place is only for non vegetarian.

Dastarkhwan is one such place which has been delivering the same taste from the past two decades. This place offers soft, tasty and delicious chicken delicacies, galawati kebabs, biryanis and mughali dishes..I tried chicken tandoori and found it was lacking some taste which could be improved. Chicken kadhai was full of oil and looked less like chicken kadhai..taste was good though and the quantity was less comparatively.. biryani was tastier and best among the dishes ordered..! Overall its an awesome place and Lucknow me aake yaha khana to banta hai! 😋

Not as good as it used to be. No complaints for the absence of seating due to corona, but taste has also degraded. A bit degradation of taste in items which I tasted like chicken masala and chicken biryani, but the taste of chicken tandoori really killed my taste buds. Hope they get their kitchen back on track as soon as possible.

Review №80

One of the places where you can find authentic taste. Chicken Masala with paratha is a classic and most popular dish served here. Kebabs are so soft that they melt in mouth they taste best with Paratha. I also tried Biryani have it while its hot also my personal opinion the taste of Biryani was much better with very little chicken masala compared to the curry they provide.Serving guys are least interested.Not suitable for family dining.Drunk people come and create a scene, restaurant guys instead of managing they fight back.

I was expecting the food here to follow in the old Southern tradition but was pleased to find the menus trending in a contemporary direction with emphasis on lean, fresh and organic fare -- while still keeping with Low Country/Southern convention. My favorite dish, in fact, was shrimp and grits topped with a tasty tasso sauce and loaded with locally netted Georgia white shrimp,which are positively unmatched for flavor.The chef and his staff are staunch advocates of the farm-to-table concept, sourcing produce, meats, poultry and dairy products almost exclusively from organic farms. The food was fresh, properly prepared and a great value for the price. We highly recommend it. The breakfast buffet on Sunday was equally as goodReception and all service staff were very helpful and cordial. Our beachfront room on the third floor had a balcony and a great view of the pool area, the ocean, and sunrise- magnificent. Food in the tavern for dinner and breakfast was good. Especially liked the lowcountry shrimp and grits. They surprised my husband with a slice of chocolate cake with Happy Birthday written on the plate when we casually mentioned that it was his birthday!The hotels room service food was really great. My adult daughter said the fries were the best ever. The breakfast was top notch, and dinner was really nice as wellService was very good and servers were kind, friendly and even offered to-go coffees in the morning for us to take back to our room.Anniversary/birthday weekend, room was beautiful and very clean. Request for top floor and king bed was fulfilled. Brunch was outstanding loved it loved it loved itA very friendly welcoming place to spend a couple of nights. All personnel were very well trained, accommodating and helpful (all done with a smile). Everything was handled with efficiency and attention to every detail was given. Food was delicious and the view was wonderful while dining. Thanks for doing such an outstanding job to make the stay so pleasurable

I personally am a vegetarian person , so posting this on behalf of my group who ate here, people who know what they are eating and what it should taste like. One of the best they have come across in their lives. Chicken masala was kind of normal which you might find easily in delhi, however boti kebab was class apart. In breads, paranthe tasted good. Quantity of food seemed good and the place is easily recognizable. Place had rush, but having said that the service was fast. The only improvement would be in terms of Cleanliness. Rest this place ROCKS!

Dastarkhwan mutton biryani is one of the most delicious biryani which I have ever eaten. I travel a lot and I prefer red meat over chicken and they offer one of the best. You can try their other options from food menu like galawati kabab, chicken masala etc. If looking for some delicious non veg in Lucknow visit Dastarkhwan, Tulsi theater , hazratganj.

Over-hyped. Overcrowded. Cheap but average tasting food. Good for you perhaps if you like super spicy and stomach shattering food. Not for those of you who prefer flavourful yet subtle and tummy friendly food.Do check out the tiny paan shop next to it. Really good meetha pan there!

This may look like a shady place but do enter to find the Nawabi cuisine that awaits you. The kali mirch chicken and biryani were exceptional. We were so stuffed with the goodness that we didnt move for another 30 minutes while speaking about various topics under the sun. Thats the zone, such good food can put you in. A must visit while you are in Lucknow, even if you are a local.

This place is a heaven for foodies. A must visit for those visit Lucknow for Non-veg but they also serve vegan food. The signature chicken Masala, Lucknavi biryani and All kinds and kebabs are a must try.It gets bit crowded and suffocating in summers, yet the Service is fast.Ps- visit the place after starving all day and forget the calorie count.

Taste was great and all as usual. The only reason for giving 3 stars is lack of distancing and maintaining any hygiene measures in these times.

Awesome food. Below average ambiance.Chicken masala and galauti kabab are their expertise. Biryani is average. See if you are looking for a good lunch meal it is awesome. But is you are thinking about going on a date here Ill suggest you shouldnt. There is no privacy at all. Furthermore waiters are not that nice. But yeag chicken masala was out of the world plus with onion and chutney it was a killer combo.This place is extremely crowded between 1 to 3 PM. Avoid that time range

Overrated. Rather go to open air shop nearby. Ordered Chicken masala (too much coconut taste), Kadhai paneer (too salty). Only thing good was mughlai parantha and jafrani kheer.
