Hyderabad is no stranger to star power. From packed cinemas to fan-frenzied premieres, the city has long celebrated its love for films. But beyond the silver screen, some of its biggest names are making an impressive impact through food. With a thriving culinary culture and ever-curious diners, Hyderabad has become a hotspot for celebrity-owned restaurants that go well beyond the expected glitz. These ventures bring serious thought, regional flavours, and creativity to the table. While the names may draw the first glance, it is the quality of the food and overall experience that keeps diners coming back or ordering in.
Whether it is dinner with a view, a cosy cafe meal, or a sushi platter at home, Hyderabad's food scene is now sprinkled with both stardust and substance. Here's a look at some of the top celebrity-owned restaurants in the city that offer the best of both worlds: a bit of star appeal and a whole lot of good taste.
