Old lanes, old recipes: 9 iconic eats in Husainabad

Khushboo Ali by Khushboo Ali

in Food & Nightlife- Lucknow, Lucknow
WhatsappShare to FacebookShare to Linkedin

If Husainabad’s lanes could talk, they’d tell stories of kebabs being perfected for centuries, of nahari brewing before dawn, of biryanis that have been feeding families for generations. No pretence. No fusion. Just pure, unapologetic flavour that’s kept people lining up since forever. Let’s dive in.

Husainabad Food Court

The new Food Court is pulling up with all the heavy hitters, Wahid Biryani, Pista House Haleem, The Golden Saffron, EFC Wings, and more. One place, endless flavours, zero compromises. Grab a seat and eat your way through the whole menu.

Cost for two- ₹1000

When- 10 AM- 11 PM

Kebabchi

If you’re in Husainabad, do yourself a favour and find Kebabchi. Order the Ghutwa Kebab first, it’s soft, flavourful, and gone in seconds. Follow it up with Pasanda, buttery Chicken Barra, and Chicken Kali Mirch that’s pure comfort on a plate. No frills, no fuss. Just really, really good food.

Cost for two- ₹200

When- 7:30 PM- 11:30 PM

Handi Nahari

Handi Nahari serves Beef Paya Biryani that’ll ruin all other biryanis for you. Their beef and mutton nahari is slow-cooked to perfection, rich, tender, soul-warming. Throw in some Chicken Korma and Mutton Biryani, and you’ve got a meal worth travelling across town for.

Cost for two- ₹400

When- 5 PM- 1 AM

Nawabi Chaska

Nawabi Chaska doesn’t do subtle. It does bold, buttery, leave-you-speechless kinda food. The Chicken Barra is smoky perfection. Tandoori makhni? Pure indulgence. Crispy chicken fry disappears fast. Their Punjabi Butter Chicken is the kind of rich you dream about, and Chicken Seekh Kebabs are soft, spiced, and impossible to resist.

Cost for two- ₹600

When- 6 PM- 12 Midnight

Maxx Fry & Grill

Maxx Fry & Grill understands one thing deeply, crispy is always better. Their Crunchy Chicken Burger is everything you want, juicy, crunchy, saucy. Shawarma burger? Best of both worlds. The crispy Chicken Strips and Fried Chicken leg pieces? Golden, crunchy, perfect. Chicken popcorn disappears fast, and shawarma is wrapped just right.

Cost for two- ₹500

When- 4:30 PM- 12:30 AM

Riyaz & Irfan Rasool

Near Akbari Gate, there’s this unassuming little stall with a crowd spilling onto the road. That’s your cue to get in line. They’re serving Kalejis so crispy they crackle, dil that’s spiced just right, and kheeri that’s soft, rich, unforgettable. No seats. No menu. Don’t walk past it.

Cost for two- ₹300

When- 7 PM- 11 PM

Shakeel Hotel

Shakeel Hotel doesn’t need a menu, regulars already know what’s good. The Kulcha nihari is breakfast perfection. Paya biryani? Rich, heavy, unforgettable. Beef kebabs are smoky and gone in minutes. Chicken biryani? Classic. No frills, no fusion, just decades of getting it right. Pull up a chair, use your hands, eat like nobody’s watching.

Cost for two- ₹250

When- 1 PM- 10 PM

New King Shawarma

Some places overcomplicate shawarma. New King Shawarma just nails it. Classic rolls? Perfect. Tortilla version? Soft and stuffed. The special? Extra generous. Tandoori chicken shawarma? Smoky, bold, unforgettable. No fusion nonsense. No pretentious toppings. Just well-spiced chicken wrapped in warm bread exactly how it should be.

Cost for two- ₹500

When- 4 PM- 12:30 AM

Tunday Kababi

Before you panic, yes, Tunday Kababi is still very much around. Their Husainabad outlet is serving the same legendary Galawat kebabs that made you fall in love. The Chicken korma? Still rich. The biryani? Still fragrant. That iconic taste? Untouched, unapologetic, unforgettable. Same vibes, same magic, just a little more room to breathe.

Cost for two- ₹300

When- 2 PM- 2 AM
