aazebo

the hitech city branch of aazebo is one of my favourite mandi places in town. the arabian mix mandi is an absolute delight. i must have visited them more than 6-7 times and never been disappointed.

on the contrary, my dinner experience at tolichowki branch was exactly opposite. starting from the restaurant being dirty and having cockroaches everywhere to thefoodin every aspect.

we ordered 2 arabian mix mandi's and they replaced it with mutton madfoon. as i know the dish, i questioned them saying this is not the mutton we get in arabian mix mandi and they replied saying the other is not available.

the chicken pieces had a pungent smell. it was surely spoilt. the restaurant got it replaced however the same issue was persistent so we asked them to take the chicken away and replace it with french fries as only that tasted ok.

the uncle who is the owner came and addressed a terrible incident with our order which i would not specify publicly as it can damage the entire reputation of the restaurant.

i hope the management takes strict and immediate actions to improve the hygiene, quality and condition of the tolichowki branch. because one complaint from our end with the photo proof we have can cause a lot of damage to their reputation. currently i am not taking any actions as i sincerely like thefoodthey make (atleast the hitech city branch).

the worstfoodworst service. waste of money

‘aazebo' opened its second outlet in hyderabad along the busyfoodstreets of tolichowki. serving authentic arabian cuisine in an elegant & spacious restaurant with well-lit interiors, this place has already made chaos amongstfoodlovers in the city. the place has both table and floor sitting options with separate air conditioned dining areas for family.

we were invited for afoodtasting session and the review for the place is as follows:

soups:
the piping hot 'marag-a-aazebo' served with chaukoni naan had succulent cuts of mutton simmered for hours that gave a signature subtle flavour to the broth.

appetisers:
the 'grilled basa fish fry' served alongside hot pita bread and hummus, had melt in the mouth basa fish coated with signature arabic spices and grilled to perfection. the 'azeebo special chicken' had perfectly char grilled chicken tossed in a sweet and tangy sauce was absolutely brilliant. the 'aazebo special mix platter' consisted of succulent mutton seekh kebab, crispy fish fry, spicy chicken wings,juicy chicken tikka and crispy fried chicken served with garlic mayo and hummus which is a must order.

main course:
the 'aazebo special mix mandi' of the yemeni origin had mutton cooked two ways, grilled chicken , fragrant basmati rice with dry fruits and a mixture of various spices that gave the dish its authentic flavours.

desserts:
the 'baklava' had sweet dessert pastries made with layers of filo filled with chopped nuts, sweetened with sugar syrup. the 'basbusa' cake had a citrus scent and flavor completed with a hint of rose aroma. the 'aazebo special fruit ka meetha' had ice cream served over thin slice of cake with loads and loads of dry fruits.

enjoy an authentic arabian feast this summer with family and friends at 'aazebo'.

taste:4/5 , ambience: 5/5 , service:5/5 , price:5/5 , overall 5/5

aazebo is located on towlichowki road opposite to pista house. all the mandi lovers should head out to this place for some authentic andfoodquality food! it’s affordable as well. the place is arranged in an authentic arabic style where thefoodis served on one large plate and there is no table seating. arabs have their own way of eating where they usually sit down together and eat from one plate.
what we ordered:
faham chicken
mixed mandi plate
aazebo mixed platter- do try the crispy fried chicken!recommendation:
1. grilled basa fish fry was super soft and tender with not much spices so those who are not into spicyfoodwould like it.
2. marag a- aazebo (mutton soup) was so delicious with the right amount of spices. it was not too oily as well. this soup is usually eaten with bread. don`t forget to have it only when it`s hot :d
last but not the least, it`s worth tying their desserts here. baklava was decent in taste, basboua being a traditional dish made of soji tasted good. lastly, most favorite item was aazebo special fruit ka meetha. it`s a trifle pudding served with ice cream, moist cake, topped with lots of fruits and garnished with dry nuts.

i love the atmosphere over there but it will be very good place if azebo open on ground floor of any place in tolichoki area ....coz elevator is so scary .....over all place offoodis wonderful

thefoodand taste was not worth the price and the service was awful. for each n everything we had to call the waiter multiple times.
the ambience was good.

visited azeebo at tolichowki branch today after having tasted at the hi tech branch came in with the expectations of goodfoodand great service that this place has made a mark for but unfortunately it fell short. maybe one of those days but considering the brand that azeebo is, i hope mr ayoob takes notice of few things that i would like to point out with hopes that its taken positively

order : fried chicken , juicy mandi ( extra mutton)
fried chicken was good the taste was up to the mark as usual and the garlic was perfect however felt the chicken was cut too flat and the over coated

juice mandi: i tried this instead of regular mandi but it fell short on our expectation.
once we got the mandi first thing the pieces not chunks they were ribs and flat piecesand also were to too tough to even break we pointed it out and it was promptly replaced. kodoos for that.
but the other two pieces ( ordered extra piece ) were not up to the mark. the mutton was very less and more of fat and was just too thin to even pull out. on top of this the gravy was soo much that it made the mandi soggy and there was so much pepper that it hit the throat pretty bad.
i have inform this to the restro but came to know that people prefer gravy this way which was bit shocking. i would suggest restro to provide extra gravy and not mix in the rice as it takes away from the taste of original mandi totally.

another thing is cleanliness, again could be one of those days but the whole stair way from second floor to first floor was greasy and sticky ( hope the staff dont slip) and the same was evident on the dining floor as well where we are asked to remove the footwear but we realized after removing it that we were better of with the shoes on as the floor was too sticky
and also the there was no water in one of the sick and very low stream of water in the other one
i would apologize if the owner feels that this a negative review to defame the restaurant or bashing but i dont have any other means of letting you know and giving my honest opinion. and seeing my fav mandi place going down this road is really not a good feeling.
rest the service was good and the person at the counter also was understanding and too the feedback in the right way.

excellentfoodthe chicken fry melted in my mouth... no words to explain mutton kabsa

have i landed in an arabian nights place? the lamps reflecting various colors,walls painted with arab nomads and the way they led there life,carpets all over with perfect seating and much more obviously made me thought i have come to some arabian place.however, its the recently opened outlet right opposite to the famous yousuf tekri situated in the famous arab influenced place tolichowki in hyderabad.

as previously mentioned the ambience says it all,the restaurant got two floors first floor for single section and the second one for families.both the floors are largely occupied with the ground seating area with separate compartments and less by the table dining,so its both ways.

moving on to food,we were welcomed with a delicious mutton soup which was light on the palate yet tasted spectacular. after a long gossip session we had starters coming over,to begin with

syrian grilled fish with hummus

generous chunks of boneless fish grilled well with the deep red color served with the side of hummus was wonderful as fish was melting in the mouth and hummus was going great with it.

aazebo special chicken faham with pita bread

who doesn't like tandoori chicken? i just love every bit of it and here at aazebo they have just changed the game by giving a rocking scrumptious twist to it by covering it in a special blend of sauce with mayonnaise and spices and trust me its worth very penny.its a burst of different flavors popping in your mouth one after the other like spicy,tangy and little sweet.

arabian mix grill platter

oh my my!! a hyderabadi wedding is what i recalled when first saw this beauty.humongous platter loaded with fish fry,tikka,seekh kebab,chicken wings,boneless crispy fry chicken and last but not the least hummus.first of all its a delight for the eyes to look at this divine platter,as its an avalanche of various non veg appetizers.all the items on this platter won my heart and is a must try for all.its priced at 1300 bucks and its quite a deal and you will ultimately cherish it.

aazebo special mix mandi

mutton fry,chicken faham, mutton juicy,mutton roos were the specials that we got in the humungous plate of mandi which was amazing with mild spices,not overpowering flavors,very subtle but still boosting with true arabian essence.

-mutton fry was a chunk of big mutton with bone fried well and a bit crisp.

-chicken faham was a perfect example of an excellent charcoal grilled flavorful chicken.

-mutton juicy was to die for as the succulent and melt in the mouth texture of this meat has just raised the bars.as the meat was falling off the bone as smooth as a butter and the juices of it were telling a heavenly luscious story alltogether.

-mutton roos was fairly good as the cooked mutton was enveloped in a red spicy tomato based sauce which was going well with mandi rice.

hyderabadi fruit ka meetha

this is a in house speciality which is not sold anywhere else except here.its the eminent dessert of hyderabadi weddings.the dessert consists of a solid vanilla ice cream brick thats drenched on a bed of fruits,dry fruits,nuts and cake towards the sides,ahh what a delighful combination!

saudi champagne

how can i forget the best part of the evening,this was something tangy,sweet,light,bursting with all flavors and a brilliant refresher after all the heavy meal.

overall it is a must visit place with wonderful arabianfoodand ambience.service is good but will have to wait for a longer time during weekends as they are usually full.

after the successful outlet at madhapur, aazebo has opened its new branch at towlichowki. this time it's spacious, bigger and better. loved the spot of this new branch, exactly opposite to pista house!

it's a 2 floor building, seperate section for families. you have table seating and down seating with private sections, mat flooring. so in terms of ambiance this is way better than the madhapur!

as soon as we settled to the place, we were given the complimentary mutton soup which was very delicious, hot and flavourful. ended up having 2 bowls of it.

aazebo special chicken: grilled chicken tossed in a very sweet and tangy sauce, served with pita breads. soft and tender chicken, sauce was nice flavourful. a must try!

syrian grilled fish: soft and melt in mouth fish, nicely grilled and cooked perfectly. less on salt, served with hummus which was excellent and fresh. fish can slightly be improved.

aazebo special platter: the house speciality and we get this only in towlichowki outlet. this kind of platter you get to see in hyderabadi muslim weddings, served as a starter with 4-5 varities of appetizers. it's a huge plate where you get all appetizers at one serving. .

seekh kebab, fish fry, chicken wings, tikka, boneless crispy fry chicken and hummus is what you get here. all the appetizers taste brilliant and flavourful. my most favourite in this was wings, crispy chicken and seekh kebab. hummus was surprisingly too good, usually garlic sauce is served with such good appetizers, this is the first place (maybe) to give hummus. and honestly it the combo of hot appetizers with hummus was somehow decent and good. overall the platter was amazing, do give it a try for sure.

tried the mandi and khabsa, both were brilliant in taste, just like in madhapur outlet. flavour and amazing, khabsa is what i preferred more this time. the meat portions were exquisite! juicy and flavourful!

desserts: double ka meetha, rabdi and aazebo special ice cream ka meetha. all 3 were decent and good!

with the most refreshing drink to end the day, arabian champagne. made with, spices and fruits!

overall a perfect for friends and families. they'refoodis value for money, presentation is amazing.

numerous places serving arabianfoodare popping up in every nook and corner of the city. aazebo has come up with its second branch in tolichowki.
this place is a two storied restaurant with one section dedicated to men and the other section is the family section.
we started off with marag which is a mutton broth and is complimentary.
then we had grilled fish which was really delicious. the fish was cooked perfectly and served with hummus and pita. really enjoyed the beautifully marinated fish.
aazebo special faham chicken: this was another delight. rich and creamy in taste.
then we had the aazebo mixed platter which consists of chicken, mutton, fish and prawns. every dish had a distinct flavour. this platter is enough for 5-6 people.
mutton mandi: the juicy mutton mandi is something that i enjoyed. the mutton liters fell off the bone. the mandi rice was extremely flavourful and light on the stomach. loved it.
we finished our meal with fruit ka meetha which literally has an entire family pack of vanilla ice cream. can easily be shared by 6-7 people. this dessert is slightly on the sweeter side so if you are okay with that then this is the best for you.
overall we had a lovely time. loved the floor seating with personal compartments.

food: 4.25/5
ambience: 3.5/5
service: 4/5
overall: would rate my experience 4:25/5

aazebo has opened up its second outlet in tolichowki. situated opposite to pista house, it offers two sitting spaces. one for casual dining and one for fine dining. my experience with this outlet was quite good.

starting with myfoodexperience, i tried out their marag soup. marag is a rich, muttin broth which has a really mellow flavour to it. it is a popular hyderabadi delicacy and is a must try.

for appetizers, i had their grilled fish, aazebo special faham chicken and non veg mix platter. this is perhaps the only place where in i like all the appetizers. the aazebo special faham chicken was my personal favourite. the margination was top notch and the chicken was actually the best that i ever had. the another thing which i liked was their crispy chicken. it is indeed a must try.

for mains, i had their aazebo special mutton mandi. the mandi consisted of juicy mutton and mutton roos on a bed of fragrant, rich rice which was full of nuts. the mutton was super tender and the portion size was also enough for me and my pals.

to end things on a sweet note, i had tried out their fruit ka meetha. it comprised of fresh slice of plum cake which was topped with whole brick of vanilla ice cream. the entire dessert was accompanied by fresh fruits and cream. the dessert was quite heavy but was up to the mark.

all in all, if you want to try out authentic arabian food, then this is the right place to be. happy eating.. :)

new place alert :-

aazebo which has been serving outstanding taste at its madhapur branch, has now open up their second branch at tolichowki which is a 2 floor building and this is exactly infront of pista house. first floor is completely common seating, second one goes for family section. which has been divided by walls section.

as this is arabian cuisine in which you are supposed to sit on the floor and eat as they have it in gulf countries.

opening up a restaurant in tolichowki. the owner (mr. ayub) has kept this in mind that at a time 10 families (4people) can sit and enjoy their meal.

so now coming to thefoodwhat we had

bone soup - a soup which is made of lamb's bones

spl chicken faham with pita bread - a chicken which is cooked have a bit gravy comes along with pita bread. this is their spl dish and its lip smacking.

non veg platter - usually you get to see this only in an hyderabadi wedding not anywhere else.

special mix mandi - this mandi came with one faham, one chicken , one mutton matfoon included in it.
trust me if you are ordering it. you will think to order another one as its so delicious. this makes me to say that they serve the best mandi in whole hyderabad

fruit ka meetha - vanilla ice cream on the top bread covered in the down layers and side ones completely filled with dry fruits
this you get to see only in an hyderabadi wedding. kahi aur milti b nai koi banata b nai.
this is the only single restaurant in hyderabad serves it. and it requires 4 -5 people to complete it. as 1 single person cannot finish it.

saudi champagne - a completely non alcoholic drink which is meant to have after completing your meal

one single restaurant having these many qualities + service is good. sometimes it may differ if its crowded. but the place is for sure going to gather every hyderabadi eye to come here and have it.
they're working more on the quality of theirfoodthan quantity. so do visit this restaurant as its personally my fav too

over all :-
ambience - 5/5
taste - 5/5
wfm - 5/5
