01 · The Story
Press-verified 63-year lineage (Siasat, July 2025): founded 1963 by Hanumanth Rao — one of Abids' first standalone eateries — still family-run by the second generation.
Hyderabad now chases neon cafes and fusion plates. Uday never did. Tucked off Hanuman Tekdi Road, easy to miss, impossible for regulars to forget — it is part of the city's memory.
It began with Chinese at a time that was rare for Hyderabad, then added North Indian as appetites shifted and the response was overwhelming. Six decades later the compact, no-frills room still runs on consistency: good portions, quick comfort, and a second-generation family hand. Siasat notes dinners for two under Rs. 300 — a value that has kept students, families and late-night groups returning. Zomato and District list it at ₹300 for two, cuisines North Indian and Chinese/Indo-Chinese, hours 1 PM–11 PM/11:30 PM, with takeaway, indoor seating, parking and kid-friendly access.
