Just returned from vacation, and didn’t want to cook so I decided to try JALWA. I ordered over the phone on my way home from work. I was pleasantly surprised by the staff’s friendliness, their attention to detail, and the delicious taste of the Chicken Tikka Masala! This is now my go to Indian restaurant. Thank you JALWA!

Their food and catering is constantly delicious, we have been ordering and eating in here for close to 1.5 years. Their flavors are closest to Delhi. Love their Dal Bukhara, Pandara Road Butter Chicken, Paneer Dilruba and Kur Kuri Bhindi. Their kebabs are amazing too, specially malai and haryali.
