What people say, in short
Tansen in the Financial District is a fine-dining spot locals recommend mainly for its ambience, live sufi music and a posh Hyderabadi vibe, and it is suggested for birthdays and anniversaries. First-hand visitors have called the food amazing, good or decent, though one found it average, and several diners warn it is overrated and not worth the money. Several say it gets crowded, two of them on weekends, when service can suffer, so booking ahead is advised. One critic says the mostly non-veg Mughlai menu disappoints vegetarians, while another visitor enjoyed a mostly vegetarian order.
