A
Waterfront
Just next to Eat Street, the outdoor deck here on the water (dinner service only) may have the best ambience in all of Hyderabad, with soft lighting overhead and the Buddha Statue, the entire Hussain Sagar and the Birla Mandir all twinkling in the distance. Eating indoors, alongside enormous picture windows, isn’t bad either. But it’s the Chinese, Indian and Thai food that’s to die for – their take on phad kea mou (noodles with tasty bok choy) is a must-eat.

Eat Street
The food court has good coffee and fast food, and you’ll also find kids’ rides, boat launches to the Buddha Statue and tables on a waterfront boardwalk. It could be cheesy; instead it’s delightful.

C
Kamat Andhra Meals
Excellent authentic Andhra meals on banana leaves, topped up till you almost faint with pleasure, and finished off with a banana. Its sister restaurants in the same compound – Kamat Jowar Bhakri (Maharashtran), Kamat Restaurant (North and South Indian) and Kamat Coffee Shop – are likewise friendly family joints full of happy diners. It has no relation to Kamat Hotel.

Hotel Shadab
One meal at Shadab and you’ll be forever under its spell. The hopping restaurant is the place to get biryani and, during Ramadan, haleem. It has even mastered veg biryani (!) and hundreds of other veg and non-veg delights (if you try the chocolate chicken or pineapple mutton, let us know how it goes). Packed with Old City families and good vibes.

Kamat Hotel
How much do people love Kamat Hotel? Words can’t say. Each Kamat is slightly different, but they’re all cheap and good. There are two branches on SD Rd; the others are in Saifabad and on Nampally Station Rd. Meals (from Rs. 36) are reliably delish.

Angeethi
The setting, designed to resemble an old Punjabi dhaba (snack bar), is over the top. But Angeethi does outstanding North Indian and Punjabi dishes, such as corn methi malai (sweet-corn stew with fenugreek leaves; Rs. 170).

You can depend on this old-school cafe with contemporary decor for excellent meals, dosas (thin lentil pancake) and masala chai (Rs. 27). Both this and the Somajiguda branch are popular with friends catching up for lunch.

Le Café d’Art
Beautiful young people come here come to smoke hookahs (Rs. 250) in antique-chic surrounds. We like it for the salads, sandwiches and espresso, though the service charge – for slow service – is a downer.

Sagar Papaji Ka Dhaba
Always busy, Papaji’s has profoundly delicious veg and non-veg biryanis, curries and tikkas. Watch the guys making naan and throwing it in the tandoor while you wait for a table.

Mozamjahi Market
A great place to buy fruit and vegies (or ice cream), while enjoying the alluring architecture of the stone building, commissioned by the seventh nizam and named after his son.
