    friendly, helpful service in beautiful surroundings. The food is excellent and plentiful. Do not hesitate to try the sampler plate, the lentils, and the tiki masala. It will be a favorite for us.

    Dinner @JALWA was a wonderful EXPERIENCE!! The food was delicious, presentation very appealing - Chef Mukesh Gautam’s care and creativity was on full display - the serving staff were attentive and helpful. JALWA is not a ‘run of the mill’ Indian restaurant! Additionally, it’s a ZERO WASTE KITCHEN!! Love it!!

    Jalwa is one of the best restaurants in Raleigh. We have been several times since they opened and the food and service are fantastic. The staff is very helpful in answering questions about the food and you can't go wrong ordering what they suggest. Highly recommend a visit soon.

    Everything we ordered was excellent, including the cocktails. Even the food presentation. Service was superb. Would have given the food a six, if possible.

    The service by the staff was excellent for an upscale restaurant. A bit pricey but the dishes were creative and tasty. We had the Rogan gosh, samosa chaat, saag burrata, garlic naan, churr churr parata, and crab cake. Would recommend for a special occasion!
