Review Waaid Biryani - Lucknow

Arnab Paul
Good authentic Mughal cuisine taste . Chicken biryani is good. Lot's of chicken peices in just half a plate of 110/- bux.
imran khan
Biryani was good but underrated galawati kebabs are way better than my expectation.

Lucknow is famous for its Biriyani and Wahid Biriyani is one of them. We had had the Biriyani and it was really awesome. The quantity was so good, and the rice quality was really fantastic. There were almost 3-4 pices of mutton and size was quite good. The ambiance was good and highly recommended if you are the biriyani lover.

One of the famous restaurant in Lucknow for biryani even in whole state . The restaurant is very small actually hardly 7-8 people can take dine in . Situated just side of tunday kababi

Tried the chicken biryani (mutton wasn't available), mutton kaleji and fried chicken. Though this place is very small with limited seating arrangement bang in the middle of the bustling Aminabad market but the food is just amazing. Biryani is light and fluffy and extremely flavourful. Chicken fry was just perfectly done and not overdone which is what you get in most of the places. Overall a 5* from me and a must try place whenever you are in Lucknow.

Wahid Biryani is a well known restaurant situated just next to the Tundey Kebabs in Aminabad Market old Nazirabad Road. This is a small restaurant with limited seating arrangement and a limited dishes menu. I've eaten their biryani both mutton and chicken earlier, but this time when I went there I tried their Boti Kebab. Believe me this dish the Chicken Boti kebab took my heart away, I was surprised that I hadn't tried this heavenly dish before. Boti kebabs being my all time favourite whenever I visit lucknow in future Wahid Biryani Aminabad becomes a must visit restaurant for me, Boti kebab will be my first priority after that their delicious Biryani. The manager of this outlet is very humble He looks out personally for the customers needs and tries his best to serve the best. He told me that they are planning to open one outlet in Delhi. I'm eagerly waiting for their branch in Delhi.

The place is located in aminabad. Very appetising food. Chicken Birayani was very good. There are two wahid biryani. Look out for the one immediate to tunde kebab. The place has some cleanness issues though. But still manageable. Summary- Pocket friendly, good for students, family-friendly, seating available, fast service, friendly staffs and a large variety of options on the menu.

Wahid biryani is one of the well known places that serve authentic awadhi biryani. Located in aminabad just next to tundey kababi. There is room for sitting inside but it's a small cramped space. The biryani is good, although nothing out of the world. Their chicken biryani is famous. Kebabs are also available here.
Shakir Khan
Went Here from Aurangabad Just To taste a Briyani but I found it average. Or Over rated But remaning Food like: Chicken boti Galauti kebab Chicken tandoori Butter was good. My advice is if u have travelled from outside of up u may find everything average here.
Farhat Hussain
as the name suggests place is famous for its biryani though the places serves variety non veg dishes like boti kabab, chicken tikka , chicken masala etc. wahid biryani is situated in aminabad next to tunday kebabai. however old outlet that serves only chicken biryani is situated in aminabad in a narrow lane opposite to its on road outlet. both the places are congested and have very small sitting area . if ur are looking for ambiance this is not the place you are looking for. this place is for true foodies who are wandering for true true lucknowi flavour. one should go to this place while visiting lucknow.
Manikandan Ganapathy
Not at all a biriyani, waste of time and Money. I won’t recommend, somehow name is famous
Prashant Saha
Best ever Biryani.. Had a lovely experience for the cuisine ... Awesome!!
Pooja Roy
Biryani was very tasty because it's obvious as it's famous for it ❤️ every grain of rice were separated and chicken was very soft overall i love wahid biryani
Abhishek Bharti
Never had a worse tasting biryani than this, and i have tasted biryani of "thelas" Of tier III towns. Worst part was kind of oil used which turned the mood off.

Delivery was good and the food is all time my favourite ❤️
Sameer Abbas
Kam se kam apne naam ki hi izzat rakh lo yaar. Baasi Biryani, bhot zyada kharab chawal. Band kar do nhi chal raha to.
ठाकुर आदित्यासिंह
Very less in quantity
Aniket Singh
Just left to the Tunday Kebabi lies another legendary age old Biryani shop of Lucknow. Popularly known as Wahid Biryani.<br/><br/>Eating at this place is also like biting into the history of Lucknow. Like the name suggests this please specialises in Biryani. And the taste they provide is just unmatchable.<br/><br/>Ate at this place a little while ago and found them unchangeable. I suggest everybody whosoever comes to lucknow should try this place out.
The World On Plate
Much hyped place with an disappointing food and service. Biryani was tasteless with chewy chicken and phirni was also okay okay in taste
Nitin Shakya
It seems that this restaurant has the potential to reach the heights of cuisine and non veg food but the problem is just is the ignoring or you may call insensitive staff,otherwise this place is great according to the price margin.
MOHAMMAD ALI KHAN
I ordered 4 half chicken biryani and my experience was horrible because the chicken was raw, i cant even pluck the meat from bone and i ended up throwing it... so please i would like aware all the customers dont order your food from wahid biryani untill they improve there food.
Sachet Patil
There is nothing remotely special about the biryani here. The rice was not soft enough and did not have any real taste to speak of. This could have been forgiven if the chicken was good. All the pieces I was given were too tough and were difficult to eat.
Tushar Pandey
So it was my first visit to the most loved biryani maker , the soo called Wahid Biryani of Lucknow, i thought that it would be a taste to remember, but sorry to say that you dissappointed me in huge way, the biryani was tasting like we are eating a pulao and i cannot understand that why does he has got soo much of good review , may be because its cheap or the taste of lucknow walas are limited to this standard..<br/>If the Lucknow walas are claiming that wahid biryani is the best biryani that you can ever get in lucknow than i am sorry to say you need to visit Gorakhpur, even The Taste of Veera or Star biryani is better than yours<br/>2 stars only for the staffs and the mughlai paratha that i have eaten with butter chicken, and let me tell you again it was not actual butter chicken it was classic desi saucy chicken masala , the quantity was good and the price is very cheap, i hope that you must read this remark because this will make your business growth much better as well as the taste of your food..

Wahid Biryani is one of the most famous non veg outlets of the city. This branch in Aminabadbis right next to Tundey Kababi, however I won't be surprise if you overlook it while passing. The place is quite small. The seats are pretty uncomfortable and are structurred and fixed together to accommodate large no. of people on one table. You'd find the menu printed on the table, so yea they did some saving there. We went there pretty early so they hardly had anything prepared by then. Nevertheless we ate what we could. We ordered a plate of Chicken Boti Kebab with paratha and I just had to try chicken biryani owing to the hype.<br/><br/>Chicken Boti Kebab- Surely one of the best I've had in town. Its rich and spicy flavours would bring you back to this place. However certain pieces of chicken were a little hard and not cooked enough but overall it was a great dish. A must try if you visit the place. Do try it with crispy parathas, you'll remember me for suggesting this place.<br/><br/>Chicken Biryani- The biryani was pretty good but nothing extraordinary. Once you visit a place with a reputation, I guess you beging expecting more. Nonetheless, it tasted pretty good so you could definitely give it a try but do not expect too much. You could easily find better biryani outlets in town since duh? It's Lucknow. They used a rice with thicker seeds so that was personally a natural put off for me. The raita they served, however, was AMAZING.<br/><br/>Chicken Masala- First of all, it was clearly stale and not cooked well. On top of it, they did not even bother to serve it hot. Total disaster for me<br/><br/>So Wahid Biryani gets a 3/5 for me for the love of Boti chicken.<br/><br/>P.s - If you don't want to compromise with the ambience or locality, I would ask you to consider before visiting the place but if food is all you care about, you're good to go..
Zama Hussain

Udai Acharjya
Unprofessional if u can’t deliver why have you taken the money
Hungryharry_foodie
I am huge fan of muglai food and being a lucknowite I miss lakhnavi zyaka in delhi. On my every visit at Lucknow is always a tour to these non veg joint. Recently i had visited wahid briyani to have my favourite briyani and other awadhi food. First of taste of food was very delicious and scrumptious. They have quick service and courteous staff. I had briyani , mutton boti and chicken kali mirch. For its a 5/5 star service
Shashank Singh

Anwesha Singh
I had ordered butter chicken....it was awesome....i loved the food.....they serve very tasty food..but i am disappointed because they send less pieces now .....otherwise its awesome
Kabir Sheikh
Some people may like wahid biryani although it is well known since years.<br/>Price is nominal but there is nothing special.<br/>Rice is not that good not mesh properly with salan.
Utkarsh Agarwal
A nice flavour to the Lucknavi Biryani quite different from other places I have had biryani. Suggested by a friend was a nice visit tasting the street and staple food of Lucknow
Avinash Ashu
They don't provide spoons with order and it's really disgusting.And they say, that they don't offer onions with biriyani but onions are so common every restrau give us complimentary onions
Khan.faisal.84

Mohit Singh

Ashwin Kumar
When we use some kind coupon ,wahid sends trash like biryani with all botis and smelly rice.. faced 2x on home delivery... I complaint to zomato but no response..
Ajeet Singh
Very poor service...Ordered butter chicken ..Got order 20 minutes late than expected Also they didn't bother to provide salad....Pathetic service..
Sanpreet Johar

Ram Bhushan Gond

Theajaybobade
Well, I had ordered Chicken fry, but they provided me good things. But third time I ordered was bad experience. Wahid biryani have positive point is that it is available upto 3am morning.
Lucknow Explorer
Awsum Biryani... If you are in lucknow, must try Wahids...<br/>The food is good. Service is prompt. Behaviour of staff is also good. They are serving Biryani for last 60 years and the Biryani they serve maintains there reputation. They also offer free home delivery and deliver promptly.
Abraham
Highly over hyped..<br/><br/>They are famous for their Biryani but I think they are overhyped...We ordered via Zomato 1 mutton biryani, but they send Chicken Biryani. Very hard and unevenly clocked ...Don't know that they serve biryani at their main outlet in same way or cook both individually...It's totally disappointment...<br/><br/>
Amit Ojha
Too Oily Food For some items, but overall this is the place we can enjoy the real Non Veg Items@friend, family,and Boss,etc..#Too love and Follow the instructions too..and follow the Hygiene..
Medha S
Very poor And wrong delivery,I ordered mutton curry but they send chicken curry.very much disappointing,not expecting from wahid,this fraud.
Shubhangi Choudhary
The biryani is just amazing. Another thing to die for is their boti kabab and paranthe. The only problem is with the space and seating but that can be compromised with easily.

Foodie In Black Hijab
Got a chance to visit this place with one of my childhood friend. This place is very near to Aminabad market. Restaurant is very compact and small only 3-4 table are there. But the Biryani... It is awesome can't even explain in words. Taste is like no-one is serving in Lucknow.<br/><br/>For food 5/5<br/>Ambiance 3/5<br/>Service 3/5<br/><br/>If you are a Biryani lover this place is for you.
Lazy Foodie
This one of the oldest restaurant established in 1955  and since that time this restaurant is serving authentic Muglai dishes. With the changes of time, they have added the dishes but the taste of many non veg items remains.<br/> Original place is located in  Old Nazirabad Rd, Khayali Ganj, Aminabad<br/>When it comes to mughlai food, Wahid's name cannot be missed. This place is open till late night and food is too good. Yes, there is too much of oil/fat, just siphon it out. If you are a foodie and love non-veg food, must try once.<br/>It's historic. When you taste the food you'll feel as you've stepped back in time. It used to be the food of Mughals.
Deveshwar Singh
After a wait of about an hour I finally got my order from Wahid but unfortunately it was a wrong order. Someone else s food was delivered to me. God knows what happened to my food. I hope the person who received it must have surely enjoyed my order.
Kalpana Piyush
Kya aap ke yahan biriyani ke sath gravy ya rayeta aur roasted ke sath salad yeah chutney nahin dete biryani apki lajvab h per aap oske sath rayeta ya gravy nahi dety ho to incomplete lagti h or roasted k sath to na hi salad h or na hi chatni<br/>
Ámäñ Çhäđđhå
Quantity is very less and no salad is served .<br/>Compaired to other restaurants the standard is very low.Other restaurants serve onion salad with the order.
Nilesh Mishra
Waste chicken biryani i feel poor quality of biryani and in chicken biryani no rayata and no chatni and also biryani quality is to bad.. i suggest of person do not purchase biryani from this shoo
Brajesh Kumar
Chicken was stale (baasi) and hard to cut but rise was good quantity was good and the quantity of raita is aprox 5 tespoon so it was bad experience with this order hope it will be better in next time
Shalini Verma
Worst Biryani ever! I never eat this type of taste less biryani.. waste my money and time. Guys I suggest you don't waste your money please.
Vartika Gupta
There is no aroma in the biryani and even the batter of kabab is very bad. In biryani the chicken pieces are like rubber. Food is completely tasteless!!
Sushmita Sengupta
Quantity was too less and packing was not good it was seems to open.. No tag of zomato dirty polybag.. Taste was ok of boti kabab but chickem gaalwati kabab was not good
Tabish Mazhar
Yesterday i ordered two half chicken biryani's.<br/>It was one the worst biryani i have ever eaten.<br/>Chicken was badly cooked.<br/>And the worst part is they have given raita just 20 ml approx.<br/>Such a stingy thing.<br/>Astonished.<br/>As a result, i didn't eat it all.<br/>Very very disappointed by the wahid biryani.
K Aman K

Deepanshu Gautam
I ordered chicken biriyani approx 1:30 hr ago and what I got..............this time I m sure that was not chicken ,that's not right..do something with ur staff
Abha Honey Bellani
The gravy was very insufficient and less. Otherwise we liked d dish. It would be wonderful if gravy should be sent in more quantity. Spices were perfect
Eatonomicss
Googled and also got recommendations from.griends about this place. Truly one of the good place to have Lucknowi Biryani. Ordered both chicken and mutton and it was good. The place is little crowded and since the shop is in the market you have to keep an eye not to miss it.
Abhishek Verma
Disappointed ☹️😒..missing quantity.i order 1 plate muttan kabab but I received order when open box I was shocked 3 piece only in packing box.don't rate plsss this place..
Ranbir Singh
Worst briyani I had till now . really pathetic.having food at restaurant is good but delivered by Zomato was worst no food quality and quantity is less in comparison to what originally we have.
Dr. A Chatterjee
This branch of Wahid Biryani is located near Aminabad Chowk. Not a pleasant looking one but lacking in looks and decor gets totally compensated by the taste of food. Ordered Tandoori chicken full and Mutton Biryani. One of the best biryani in Lucknow and the roasted chicken was well prepared.
Khan
Nice biryani but the place is not that good but they have tasty food. Chicken biryani is nice and very spicy and quality of rice was also nice.😊😊
Ifra Meraz Khan
Didnt like briyani.. Worst experience ever.. Even the salad is not gud the salad is containing only onions nothing else. Should improve the quality of briyani and pieces also.. Not a single piece is gud..
Sanjay Khan Nagra
Had gone to Tunday Kebabi and was told that Wahid's Biryani is better. So we came here, which is right next to Tunday. There was hardly any place to sit with only two or three tables. The Biryani wasn't that great either. We tried Tunday Biryani also afterwards, but that was average as well.
Honey Chandani
Ordered half biryani. It was fresh but there were no spices. Just simple. One can order to satisfy his or her hunger as the quantity is perfect for 1 person.
Anamika Yadav
One of most famous and busiet foodie place of lucknow but worth of every thing it is. Quite appraising and aroma of there food is very attractive too.
Munish Bhatnagar
Whaid "bas naam hi kaafi hai" A trusted foodies Adda in Lucknow, I love its dishes specially in chicken, Boti Kabab and Shami Kababs are also very Yummy and mouthwatering diahes here.
Shashwat Sinha
Wahid's reputation is falling ...
Deepak Srivastava
Awesome Mutton Biryani.. had a real experience of tasting such delicious Mughlai Cuisine. Keep it alive always like this.. just want to tell..<br/>PS: add lemon pieces along with the onion salad!! ;)
Abhishek Prajapati
i have ordered shahi chicken masala today...the dish was very bad quality...and taste is also bad ...the food was very oily..overall my experience was very bad
Neena Neema
Ordered chikan masala vai zomato taste not Good. Taste is like boiled food no masla nothing.<br/>But quatity is good. Chiken timma is good at that price
Ankur Sagar
I ordered ROASTED CHICKEN, the pieces of chicken were small in size and the meat was not tender.<br/>Green chutney was also not served with it. The flavor of the marinade was not so good.
Tabish
I ordered chicken kali mirch and mughlai paratha, paratha is ok but the quantity of chicken kali mirch is so so less, not expected from them
Rahman Manzoor
No compromisation with taste just loved the taste and packing is also good, quantity of food is pretty good The tip is should give napkins and disppsable plates with package
Pramod Hora
Pieces in chicken biryani was very small in size
Kshitij Kumar
