Gufaa Ohri’s Cuisine Court

Last night, I had dinner with my family at Gufaa Ohri’s Cuisine Court in Basheer Bagh a place I used to love visiting during my childhood. After almost 10 years, I returned with high expectations and nostalgia, but unfortunately, the experience did not live up to them. For appetizers, we ordered crispy corn, paneer tikka, and talawa gosht. For the main course, we chose goat curry with garlic naan, along with vegetarian dishes like methi chaman and paneer makhanwala served with tandoori roti and Lachha paratha. Sadly, most of the dishes lacked flavor and freshness. The methi chaman tasted more like plain palak with shredded paneer rather than the authentic preparation, and the rotis were cold and not soft. The paneer makhanwala was especially disappointing in taste and richness. The non-vegetarian dishes were slightly better, but still not impressive or memorable. Overall, the food quality, taste consistency, and restaurant maintenance seem to have declined over the years. It’s truly disappointing to see a place I once cherished no longer living up to its past standards. I sincerely hope they take steps to improve their food quality, service, and overall dining experience in the future.

Gufaa is very old Restaurant located in prime area of Basheerbagh / Himayatnagar. The food is excellent. We had North Indian food. It's awesome. One can get huge range of Ice creams here.

It’s always pleasant to be in Gufaa, it’s an absolutely delightful dining experience! The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The ambience was warm and inviting, and the staff were attentive and courteous. Every detail—from the service to the taste—made the visit memorable. Definitely a place I would love to come back to Gufaa

We have ordered 2 chicken starters 5/5 And one chicken biryani 2.5/5 And one mutton biryani 3.5/5 And one mocktail 4/5 The food taste is good and the biryani taste is bit different but okish And the service is 4/5 And even the ambience is too good 5/5 Would visit the place again for it's ambience and starters...

The theme of the restaurant is excellent. The furniture work, lighting, look and feel are different and unique from regular restaurants. Very nice ambience. Good no.of varieties. Many drinks are also available. The taste of the items tried are very good. (Not very spicy but good enough). The service and maintenance are nice. The size of the restaurant is not very big, so can't accommodate many people.

We went there on the evening of Eid. The manager informed us prior that many staff are on leave because of the festival and there could possibly be a delay. I liked that approach as it will help the customers to set their expectations right. Food was equally good. Even though all were over worked, the staff were all well behaved.

Our server was Sushant. He was extremely polite and helpful with suggestions and overall service. This place offers a very good variety of both vegetarian and non vegetarian dishes. Their masala kulcha was perfect. After a long time we ate such perfect, soft, well filled kulchas. The bagmati chicken was also succulent and different in taste. The quantity however could have been slightly higher. The ambiance is nice. Personally, I was not overly excited about the cave ambiance but they have done a great job in making the interiors look like a cave. They also play animal sounds when the main door opens. Those who are looking to experience a different ambience, they might like the look. The food overall is amazing but the prices are slightly high. Considering the quantity of food that is served, the prices are a bit high. For example one biriyani is nearly 450/500 and it is good enough for one heavy eater. It will be enough for two people only if they are both light to medium eaters.

One of the finest restaurants in the city is Ohri's and on top of that this is a theme restaurant of Gufaa which is best attractive place for kids and family. They also do have the sound system which makes animal sounds and water sounds to make it feel natural. The drawback is the service is too slow as they take nearly 25-30 min for single serve to get the each item to the table. We ordered Ohri's Lahori Murgh Tikka and Tala Huwa Ghost. Among both of them Murgh Tikka tastes great compared to Mutton as it was completely smashed. In main course, we ordered Mutton biryani and chicken biryani as it is not spicy and also Mutton pieces should get cooked properly. In beverages we tried Ohri's Delight, Fruit Punch, Pineapple Cooler and among them Fruit Punch and Pineapple Cooler tastes really well. Must Tries: Ohri's Lahori Murgh Tikka Main Course: Mutton Biryani(ask them to make it spicy and cook it well) Beverages: Pineapple Cooler, Fruit Punch Cons: Parking is not too good as it should be parked on road. It is bit conjusted and also service should get better in serving food.
