We specialise in Awadhi and Mughlai cuisine — the royal culinary traditions of Lucknow. Our menu features slow-cooked Dum Biryani, Galouti Kebabs, Nihari Gosht, Mutton Korma, Warqi Paratha, and much more, all prepared using traditional recipes and hand-ground masalas.

Yes! We have a dedicated vegetarian section on our menu featuring dishes like Vegetable Biryani, Paneer Tikka, Dal Makhani, and several Awadhi breads. Please inform us of any specific dietary requirements when booking and our chefs will be happy to accommodate.

We take allergies very seriously. Please inform us of any nut, dairy, gluten, or other allergies at the time of booking or when placing your order. Our kitchen team will take every precaution. However, as a kitchen that uses a wide range of spices and ingredients, cross-contamination cannot be 100% guaranteed.

Authentic Lucknowi cuisine is aromatic rather than fiery — it's rich with flavour and fragrance but not overwhelmingly spicy. That said, we can absolutely adjust the spice level on most dishes. Just let your server know your preference — mild, medium, or our traditional recipe!

Our core Awadhi and Mughlai menu stays consistent, but we do introduce seasonal specials and festival menus — especially for Eid, Ramadan, Diwali, and winter months when slow-cooked preparations are at their best. Follow our social media for seasonal announcements.

Yes! We deliver across Lucknow via Zomato and Swiggy. Simply search for "Eat N Eat" on either app to place your order. Delivery times vary by distance and order volume, but we always aim to have your food arrive hot and fresh.
