Est. 1918
The food Bangalore lines up for. From Hamza Hotel's kitchen, Shivajinagar.
From Hamza Hotel's kitchen on H.K.P. Road, Shivajinagar - the same recipes Bangalore has loved for 106 years, now at your doorstep.
In 1918, when Shivajinagar was still finding its feet, Hamza started a small eatery on H.K.P. Road. Word spread — about the ghee rice that glistened just right, the charcoal kebabs that regulars still queue for, the bheja fry that people drive across the city for. Distinctly Dakhni. Distinctly Hamza.
Four generations later, we're still here. The Russell Market vendors stop by for lunch. The Commercial Street shopkeepers send their staff. The late-night crowd knows we're the real thing when everything else closes.
Hamza Express brings this to you - not a new menu, not a cloud kitchen experiment. The same food, from the same kitchen, prepared the same way. The only difference? You don't have to find parking in Shivajinagar anymore.
When most restaurants in Bangalore are 10-15 years old, we've been here for 106 years. Four generations of the same family, the same location on H.K.P. Road.
Our recipes come from the Deccan Sultanates — a cuisine older than any restaurant brand in Bangalore. Subtle spicing, slow-cooked meats, ghee-laden rice. This is how Dakhni food was made before food delivery existed.
Brain fry that people drive across Bangalore for. Mutton pepper fry that's been on our menu since the 1950s. Ghee rice that makes everything else taste like it's missing something.
