" I had a fantastic dinner at Jalwa with my friends. The authenticity of the food is unmatched; the Chicken Biryani was exquisite, filled with rich flavors. The atmosphere is cozy ensuring a nice dining experience. The only downside was a bit of a wait for the food, but the taste made up for it. Highly recommend this restaurant! " (*Curated Review*)

" I took my family for a special dinner to Jalwa and wow, just wow! The atmosphere is so inviting. We had their special Chicken Tikka Masala, and it was a crowd-pleaser. Everybody loved their meals, even the kids! The service was prompt and very friendly. My only suggestion for improvement would be to consider expanding the dessert menu. We’ll be definitely returning soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've eaten at many Indian restaurants, but Jalwa stands out for its commitment to authenticity and quality. I ordered the Chicken Korma and was delighted by how it was not overly sweet, which is often the case in North American versions. The spices were perfectly balanced, and the naan was freshly made and incredibly soft. The decor has a rich, cultural vibe that compliments the food. I would recommend it to anyone craving genuine Indian flavors. The only downside was a bit of wait time on a busy night, but it was worth it. " (*Curated Review*)

" We arrived at Jalwa during a busy lunch hour, but that didn’t diminish our experience. The service was quick, and we enjoyed the Chicken Tikka and the Garlic Naan—both were fantastic! The dining area is beautifully decorated, enhancing the atmosphere. Definitely a restaurant I would recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been to a lot of Indian restaurants, and I must say Jalwa has some of the best food I’ve ever had! The variety they offer is impressive, and everything I tried was fresh and flavorful. The staff was extremely friendly, making sure everything was okay. The ambiance was lovely and contributed to a relaxed meal. I highly recommend trying it out! " (*Curated Review*)

" I came here with my family to celebrate a special occasion, and we were not disappointed. The ambiance was cozy, and the staff treated us well. The service was quick, and the food came out hot and fresh. I particularly enjoyed the Goat Curry—it was tender and flavorful. Dessert took a little longer, but the Gulab Jamun made it worth it! Overall, a lovely place for a family gathering. Will surely return again! " (*Curated Review*)

" As someone who has traveled extensively across India, I can honestly say Jalwa lives up to its name—it's radiant! The authenticity of the food took me back to my travels. I tried their Chicken Dum Biryani, and it was one of the best I’ve had outside of India. The rice was fragrant, and the chicken tender. The setting is intimate, perfect for a family meal or a date night. The only downside was that our dessert order took a bit longer than expected, but it was worth the wait. Highly recommend to any lovers of Indian food! " (*Curated Review*)
