Fantastic experience with a hugely enthusiastic guide, Cyrus, who expertly explains the history of Lucknow gastronomy and the dishes and is clearly passionate about his role. The food was outstanding and the commitment to cleanliness and hygiene was exemplary. I cannot recommend this enough.

Excellent lucknow culinary experience

Shailesh_T, Jan 2026
Cyrus one of only 25 parsi community in lucknow is a brilliant guide, knows all old lukhnavi speciality eateries.takes extra care for cleanliness. It started at Mubin's with chicken starter, mutton dish with shirmal. Then famous Tunday kababs, parotha & tandoori dish, Raheem kulcha was excellent. It ended with various types of Halas.overall excellent. Because of Cyrus, we visited all these places, otherwise people like us will not think of visiting such places

Outstanding tour!

Would not recommend

Not worth the money - better to visit a Lucknowi restaurant on your own and taste all the dishes - will be way cheaper and a nicer experience overall Guide doesn’t provide any history or information in a structured manner - only answered our questions

Response from Host, Nov 2024

Dear Riya, It is very unfortunate that you found our Culinary Walk expensive. Frankly, the cost not only includes food cost but also a personal walking bag, with bottled water, personal disposable cutlery set, wet tissues and paper napkins. Plus, of course services of an expert Food Walk Leader. Our Walk Leader has had good reviews (past comments will indicate so) all through his career of 15 years and is known to part a lot of food knowledge to the guests. Nevertheless, your experience definitely matters to us and we are quite concerned too. We unconditionally apologize for the experience you had with our tour. As a compensation, whenever you are visiting Lucknow again, we will be happy to offer you a 6 hours Day Tour or any other another walking tour of your choice. Your feedback is important and will help us to provide better services to our guests in future.

Excellent

Had an amazing tour with our tour guide Cyrus, a very well behaved and knowledgeable gentleman . Went to places famous for awadhi cuisines . Food was delicious. Would recommend this for anyone who is a foodie, can walk a few kms in narrow lanes and don’t mind eating at small outlets .

Cyrus = bilkool Sahi = absolutely right!

Cyrus went out of his way to teach me Hindi, buy the missus flowers, and even letting my soulmate know that I love her! Bilkool Sahi!
