"Good place for non veg lovers … mutton dishes are their specialty…"
Amit Nigam
"It's running only because of its name. I brought full chicken masala , but to my surprise it was completely tasteless also when you order full chicken you expect with bone pieces. They gave all the boneless breast pieces.
DO NOT GO TO THIS HAKEEM.
NO TASTE, NOT WORTH THE MONEY."
Nitin Chourasia
"The taste has detoriated over the period of time as it's not the same taste which it use to be earlier but some dishes are still amazing it's the dispute over the brothers which led to this as 12-15 years back it was an amazing restaurant in Bhopal."
