Classic Old Delhi Mughlai spot near Jama Masjid Gate No. 1 serving hearty, old-school flavors, especially mutton nihari, chicken changezi, kebabs, and kormas with rumali roti and sheermal. Food leans rich and oily—great for those who like robust gravies, but can feel heavy for some palates. Mutton dishes are the strength here; chicken tikka can be inconsistent, while nihari and korma are consistently satisfying. Ambience is basic and bustling across multiple floors, with a no-frills, old-city vibe. Service can slow down at peak hours and may feel brusque during rush, so a little patience helps. Prices are generally reasonable for the area and portions, making it a solid value for classic Mughlai fare. There is no alcohol on the menu, keeping the focus squarely on the food. Best reached by metro to Jama Masjid station with a short walk, as parking in the lane is limited. Hours run from early morning to late night, which makes it convenient for breakfast nihaari or a late dinner. Overall, a dependable stop when craving robust Mughlai flavors—go for nihari, korma, and kebabs, pair with rumali roti or sheermal, and expect some grease with the goodness.

Al Jawahar Restaurant near Jama Masjid is a must-visit for authentic Mughlai cuisine. I ordered the Chicken Nahari, which was bursting with rich flavors, perfectly balanced with a subtle kick from ginger and chilies. The dish paired wonderfully with their soft, freshly baked Khamiri Roti, creating a hearty and satisfying meal. The ambiance is simple and reminiscent of old Delhi’s charm, and the service is quick despite the rush. The flavors truly reflect the culinary heritage of the area. A perfect spot for anyone looking to enjoy authentic and flavorful food near Jama Masjid. Highly recommended for food enthusiasts.
