Exotica Banjara Hills (zafraan) - North Indian restaurant in Hyderabad - Hyderabad, India

As the name suggests exotic and has a very good atmosphere The food is also delicious we went there to celebrate our anniversary and it was a great experience to spend time with your family or someone special at the entrance you will get rose once you enter and lady who was there to welcome guests is politely welcomes you feels good and one photographer is also there if you want your precious moments capture he will click and print pictures it costs 100 rs per picture overall great experience happy from bottom of my heart

A beautiful rooftop restaurant. I loved the ambience, Fish areas around the sittings with flowers. Candle Light arrangements are done here. Food is tasty, I had vegetarian, dishes from Tandoor are mouth watering. Oriental food is also served here. Liquor is served on the table itself. Fish is the best served non veg here. It has both inside and outside sitting Please prefer sitting outside. Must must visit with Family or friends.

We had a nice time at the restaurant. They had valet parking, which was convenient. The food was good, especially the beetroot kofta. It was soft and flavorful. The roller coaster drink was also fun to try. The service was good, too. They were attentive and friendly. The only downside was that the place was very crowded. We had to wait for a long time to get a table. And the vegetarian Manchuria was not very fresh. It tasted a bit stale and dry. Other than that, we enjoyed our experience there.

After reading a lot of amazing reviews and watching a lot of social media reels I finally went to this place with my family. To sum up my experience here this is mostly an overhyped place for fine dining. Being a foodie I love to explore new places especially fine dinings but this place lacks in all the criteria whether it be food, ambience and service also the hyped up price adding to the so called amazing but not so amazing service. I've ordered Rarha Gosht, Garlic Naan, Two mocktails for lunch. The mutton was completely undercooke basically raw you can say. The garlic naan was too hard.... Small Dhabas do know how to prepare a proper soft naan. Mocktails were basically only ice in the name of drinks with little syrup added. Regarding the ambience it's a very congested place settled up not to be considered an amazing ambience. And service is pathetic if I consider their so called ratings and prices. Nobody is there to followup and serve properly. Even after providing the feedback to the manager they're interested in arguing that Garlic naan is always like that wherever we eat...... I mean please you might be having 4.8 Stars in your reviews but please get your chefs trained properly on how to cook. I do not suggest this restaurant as they don't have basic courtesy towards their customers as well. I don't know how people are adding this to as one of the best fine dinings in Hyderabad.

This place has nice vibes. It's usually crowded during weekends, you might have to wait for 10-15 mins to get the table in outside area. Taste and service is good. Place is a bit costly. We've tried Kadhai paneer and garlic naan in main course which was good. Dry manchurian in starters. And in drinks Roller coster(Not so good). Enjoy Bon apetit.

Exotica is an upscale place in Banjara Hills . Been to this restro recently for dinner . The moment you enter you would be in awe of the ambience which has been tastefully done and it looks more beautiful when the interiors are totally lightened up . Food was yummylicious. The starters were delightful to start with , the panner & brocolli starters were succulent while the chicken malai starter was the star of the day . The main course was delectable too . We enjoyed each and every morsel of the food , the quantity given for each delicacy is generous too . The cost is definitely on the higher side . nevertheless , if you are looking for a fine dining place with family , this is the go to place .

It was a beautiful balmy Friday night! The weather was just right to sit out. The ambience was soft and relaxing. We found ourselves at Zafraan exotica. The service was exemplary. The staff polite and courteous. Extremely efficient. The food was mouth watering. Beautifully presented! What more can you ask for? our mocktails were a delight. The food was a sensual delight to the taste buds. If you have not visited yet, please do. From kababs, to dal to the kulchas . Everything was par excellence. Specially the gelawti kabab, fish achari tikka. What are you waiting for? Why wait for tomorrow? Who has promised tomorrow? You have to visit as soon as possible. Why not tonight foodies?

Food is excellent. The shrimps the fish and the chicken. The kebab not so much. Makhni daal is also great Ambience. On the rooftop open terrace. Light breeze with the electric fans. Great place
