Yes.... Barbeque nation has floored me... I have no words for its praise. It has indeed stayed up to its hype.
On the first visit, I went with 11 of my friends, only to be waiting for 1 long hour to get a place to sit. Trust me, it as worth it.
As soon as we got a place to sit... a steaming Barbeque bar was placed in the table. Then came the barbeque sticks plucked in with all sorts of platters. Fish, chicken, mutton, veggie... it was all there.
Priced at Rs. 450 a person for dinner, you would definitely think its priced high as you wont be ending up eating half the items on buffet. The mocktails are a little pricey apart from that the beverages are quite moderately priced and easy for pocket.
Apart from the ambiance which is a little clumsy with so many people everytime, its definitely a place to be when you need to throw a party.
One more bad thing, they don't take prior bookings for the primetime slot thats 7:30-9:30 PM. If you need to make a prior booking it has to be either before 7:30 PM or after 9:30 PM.
Now, all that ended up resulting me to reach the place again in just a weeks time again and so I say. Definitely, may be... once again.. :-)

They have a wide section of barbeque and the main course AND desserts. The barbeque was good the mail course better, and the desserts EVEN better. It is a lagre seating area and is really recommended for parties with 10-15 people.

Barbeque Nation is part of an All-India chain of restaurants situated on the ground floor of ANR Centre opposite the City Centre mall in Banjara Hills. The place has a lunch and dinner buffet.
What is different about this buffet is that a grill is set up on your table and starters on skewers are placed on this grill. We had starters of chicken, paneer, vegetables and achaari aloo. Various marinades, condiments, and butter are kept in small bowls on the tables which you can add to the food being barbequrd on the skewers to suit your taste. It is a delightful experience and the staff just keeps on bringing an endless flurry of food to be barbequed and consumed. Try experimenting by grilling the chicken in different marinades and they do really taste different each time!
They also have a full course meal to have if you still like to eat more after having the starters. For us there was chicken lemon grass soup, roast chicken in mint sauce, sea food salad , thai broccoli green curry as well as the Indian laal chicken. The buffet also has its fair share of sweets and desserts.
The overall ambience is nice though the place tends to get very crowded. This place is definitely worth a visit for the experience it provides.
Lunch buffet is Rs 250 plus taxes whereas the more elaborate dinner buffet is Rs 400.

The place has very good food - the barbecue is excellent though the buffet is a little above average.
The service is not bad - its not exceptional, but its not as bad as Fusion 9's for example.
Its always been crowded, full of smoke and noise. That's to be expected from a place that's not quite expensive!! For the unlimited barbecue and buffet, the place charges a surprisingly low rate!!
Amongst the barbecues, the chicken, vegetables and the prawns are the best. The paneer is not always fresh, and the mutton is sometimes not quite tasty. The fish is average.
I like the idea of the barbecue - its a novel idea that's been embraced by Hyderabad whole heartedly.
I keep going there for the low prices, amazing quantity, very good quality and good service.
