The Legend of Lucknow

The 100 year old Lucknow based 'Tunde ke Kabab' is the most famous outlet for choicest Kababs even today.
Many celebrities have been to this place from across the globe. The joint got its name when generations ago Mohammad Osman Haji started the enterprise with the special spices and ingredients that his ancestors had developed that were close to the gastronomic secrets of the kitchens of Nawab Wajid Ali Shah - the last of the kings, who was high on art, culture and music.
Haji was disabled and had only one arm. Tunde is an insensitive but general epithet given to one-armed people. However, in this case it became a term of endearment.

  • Fake Tundey's!!!! 2012-02-11

    This place was way below our expectations..I guess the only common thing between this place and the Tundey's in Lucknow is the name..The famous Gelawti Kebabs had hardly any trace of mutton in it... just some kind of mash ... They seriously need to take classes from the original Tundey's or change their name...

    We tried the Mutton Biryani which was cold and tasteless. We also made the cardinal error to order a chicken seekh kabab. It looked and tasted like Venky's sausage.

    Save your money - go somewhere else.

  • A Big Truth 2012-01-21

    There are some dogs, who never visited this place and dare to write review about a reputed place like legend of Lucknow, they only removed the name because the greedy brand owner who was charging 20% on total revenue, later on when the franchise was about to close, they reduced the percentage to 13% , by the time the person who was running tunday kababi under gone a very huge loss and he decided to through away the franchise and there name. paying 20 percent on gross sale itself a big loss.

  • Good bargain for your money 2011-12-29

    I've been to Tunday Kabai, almost 2 months ago, along with my friend.

    I had their famous Gelawati Kabab & Sheek Kababs. Both were mild in spice but good in taste. I may visit them again to try something else.
    Though my friend didn't like both the stuff we tried, may be its just a matter of palate.

    Decently priced, service just like the Decor is just about OK! This despite the fact that the shop is filled with celebrities(Actors, politicians, socialites, etc) posing with probably the owner of this joint.

    Overall I would call it a decent bargain for your money.

    yes mr Usman saw it evening.it has been renamed to legend of lucknow , after such a disaster this was supposd to happen., who better than u will undrstand that a resturant will survive only if it gives quality food., people will come again and again if quality s good., if management tries to make more profit by decreasing quality like adding more water n gravies., chicken kabab with 90 % bone 10% flesh that are served for dogs that will lead to loss., is that legend of lucknow urs only ??
