If you’re in Lucknow and want to taste real Nawabi flavours, you must visit this legendary spot. Tunday Kababi is one of the most talked-about names in Lucknow’s foodie scene, famous for its melt-in-your-mouth kebabs and rich Awadhi cuisine that locals and travellers both swear by.
🥘 What We Tried
We ordered a mix of classic favourites, and here’s how everything stacked up:
Gulati Kebab – This was the star of the show. Soft, juicy, aromatic, and perfectly spiced — you can see why people travel just to taste it.
Chicken Malai Kebab – Creamy, tender, and delicious — great if you like a lighter kebab that still packs flavour.
Chicken Tikka Kebab – Smoky and well-charred outside, juicy inside. A great partner to the kebab platter.
Biriyani – Fragrant and rich, great comfort food after the kebabs.
Paratha – Soft and buttery, perfect to scoop up the kebabs and chutney.
Every dish was so good, and the portion sizes were generous. The spice balance in each kebab was just right — not too heavy, and not bland either.
🛫 What’s Even Better?
We packed Gulati kebab and Chicken Tikka kebab for our night flight back to Kolkata, and even hours later, the quality was still excellent — juicy and flavorful, just like when they were served fresh. So if you’re flying from Lucknow to your hometown, you can easily bring these home in your carry-on!
✨ Final Words
Tunday Kababi lives up to its legendary reputation — iconic kebabs, great biryani, and flavours that stay with you long after the meal. It can get quite crowded, but honestly, that’s part of the Lucknow food experience!
Highly recommended for non-veg lovers and anyone who wants an authentic taste of Lucknow’s famous Mughlai cuisine.
