From Butter Chicken Momos To Ice Cream Rolls, Here's What To Eat In Baani Square

The Ivy restaurant serves delicious Mediterranean, Lebanese and Continental cuisine. It's a perfect place to eat at with family, or a bunch of friends. The seating options are plenty (although the place isn't huge), so don't shy away from planning a nice Lebanese night here. We have heard a lot about their roasted chicken, zaatar chicken, shawarmas and salads (yep, they ace that too!). Apart from their yummy food, they also have refreshing mocktails and a bunch of desserts to offer (Tiramisu is a must-try.)

Price: INR 1,200 for two people.

If you love getting your hands dirty (and your tummy full) with desi, North-Indian food, you must eat at Punjab On My Plate. Known for their butter chicken, dal makhani, and drool-worthy vegetarian (and vegan) starters, POMP has been a go-to spot for North Indian food.

The place is a little bit cramped, so I recommend you get the food delivered and enjoy it in the comfort of your home.

Price: INR 1,300 for two people.

The Oriental Fusion is an authentic Asian restaurant in Baani. The place serves Thai, Chinese and East Asian cuisine and has really pretty interiors. The food is really good and super pocket-friendly, so if you're craving authentic Asian food and are on a budget, you know where to go. 

Oriental Fusion wins for its dim sum selection. Don’t leave without getting a plate of the Curry dim sum – Thai dumplings with a generous helping of yellow curry; this one hits the spot every time. However, the place may not be suitable for a large group as they don't have abundant seating option available.

Price: INR 650 for two people.

Fat Butterfly serves drool-worthy desserts, cakes, Italian cuisine and more. It's a bright coloured spot with teal doors and windows, and I find it super adorable. Although they're largely famous for their bakery products, people love their pasta, sandwiches, and salads too. They have a cosy seating area so if you're craving waffles or bannoffee pie, grab a seat!

Price: INR 1,200 for two people.

Big Wong in Baani Square has been my family's go-to place to grab delicious Chinese, Thai, and Asian cuisine for dinner. You can just never go wrong with their menu, so feel free to order whatever sounds nice to you. People love to eat the noodles & dumplings here too.

Bringing all the authenticity and nostalgia of South Indian food, Coastal Reef has seafood that’s always fresh, fluffy appams and light dosas. It's a casual dining restaurant that does stellar cuisines from Kerala, Andhra, and other parts of South India, so you can expect stellar good seafood here.

Giani is one of our favorite ice cream parlours. You can choose from an impressive range like the classic vanilla, butterscotch, or you can choose from their real fruit flavours, or special flavours like California Mania, Brownie Walnut, Belgian Chocolate, etc. You can get it in a cup, and even in a waffle cup or cone.

Perfect for winters, Giani's halwas are the best! Their moong dal halwa and gajar ka halwa are worthy of stepping out of the house for after dinner. The outlet in Baani Square is pretty spacious, but they don't have enough seating options.

Price: INR 300 for two people.

This blue-door Italian restaurant is one of the most famous eateries here in Baani Square! Tossin Pizza is where you find pizza everything. You can choose your pizza base and sauces, and get a loaded, delicious pizza, as you'd like. They have a really good range of starters (and even pizza starters for that chhoti bhook). You can choose from the usual choice of pizzas, but what makes Tossin really awesome is that they have seafood pizzas, pasta, lasagne, and a lot more options to offer.

The eatery is perfect to bond over Italian food with a buddy, family, or even a date!

Price: INR 800 for two people.

Need chicken soup to soothe your soul? Head to Thaichi Street in Baani Square.

I recommend this place for a jolly family dinner, as the restaurant has abundant seating options available, and the food is priced decently and tastes great!

If you want to try Bhutte Ke Kebab and Rogan Josh, you have to go to The Spice Lab. This casual dining restaurant is located on the outer ring of Baani Square. They have an indoor, as well as outdoor seating options available. Their butter chicken is really famous (and is also my go-to dish while ordering-in). Wash it down with Chaach and chase your meal with Rabri, this place promises a truly satisfying meal.

Rumi's Kitchen is a cosy eatery in Baani Square perfect for quick bites. They serve Lucknowi food and that sounds extremely fun, although we haven't tried it yet. They have 'House Specials' that includes their signature dishes like Hmmmutton and Pao, Gurkha Langar Chicken Curry and Rice, and Haleem! If you're drooling already, then their gravy based dishes like- murgh korma and parantha and jalapeno saalan and parantha will definitely steal your heart.

Sandburg Shakes is a cafe that is super popular for its burgers and shakes! They have a big menu that offers a unique range of burgers, pasta, Breadwiches (sandwiches), pita pockets, pizza, sides, and a bunch of cool beverages and desserts. The lack of a seating space and aesthetic ambience is totally made up for by the big burgers with juicy patties (and the fries!), scrumptious pasta and obviously, the milkshakes.

Price: INR 750 for two people.

Mangle Di Kulfi is the place to be if you're a Kulfi fanatic. What I think is awesome about it is that they offer sugar free options as well, which makes it a perfect place to head at after a good dinner. Their paan kulfi, kulfi faluda, and kesar pista kulfi are definite crowd pleasers. They also have a few ice-cream options.

Price: INR 35 upwards for kulfi.

As the name suggests, Momo King truly is acing the momo game! They essentially do eight kinds of momos - steamed, fried, Kothey (pan-fried momos, dipped in butter), Sandheko (pan-fried momos tossed in authentic Nepali spices), chilli, Choila, jhol, and tandoori, in veg, non-veg, soybean, mushroom, and cheese options for fillings to choose from! They also serve really good noodles and beverages.

Lub Lub Lebanese is my go-to place to grab a delicious, healthy and filling shawarma. They offer Mediterranean and Lebanese cuisine, so you can choose from platters and shawarmas (available in chicken, mutton, falafel, and paneer options) rice bowls, pita pockets, and a few beverages like a mojito, watermelon soda, etc. I love ordering from Lub Lub Lebanese because the food is fresh, healthy, and also pocket-friendly.

Since it's a small place, I prefer ordering from here, but if you're in Baani Square, get yourself one of their yummy shawarmas.

Price: INR 700 for two people.

Known for their thick and filling rolls, Kwaliti serves a bunch of fast food, priced at a pocket-friendly rate. This is only a take-away joint, so there are no seating options available. Their galleria branch is extremely famous for momos and rolls, so we're super lucky to have them at Baani Square, honestly. What is awesome about the eatery is that they have both vegetarian, and non-vegetarian options!

Price: INR 300 for two people.

If you love chicken tikkas, tandoori chicken, butter chicken, dal makhani, and basically everything North Indian, Halki Aanch is the place for you!

Mon Delice is a small dessert parlor in Baani Square that offers bakery items, fast food, and beverages. They have a variety of burgers, sandwiches, and puffs on their menu. Their menu reminds me a lot of a college canteen, but 10x better in terms of quality and taste. They also have absolutely maddening cakes, they're really pretty and adorable.

Price: INR 600 for two people.

If you're a sucker for ice-creams, gelato, and yogurt, you will love Yumto!
