Our Vijayawada Menu

The menu at our Vijayawada restaurant is where UTK began, with over 300 recipes drawn from Andhra, Telangana and Rayalaseema, cooked the way they are cooked at home in the Krishna and Godavari districts. Start with Rayalaseema Natu Bombs or a Konaseema Paneer, move on to the UTK Kodi Biryani, and finish with a full Andhra veg thali. It is the most complete Telugu menu you will find in Vijayawada, and the reason guests keep calling us the best Telugu restaurant in the city. The city runs through the menu itself: the Bezawada Boneless Biryani and Bezawada Fried Wings take the old name for Vijayawada, and the mocktails are named after local landmarks, with Benz Circle, Besant Road and Durga Complex all on the list.
