Al Jawahar Restaurant - Jama Masjid - Matia Mahal
Al-Jawahar has been in the food business since 1948. Then Prime Minister of India, Honourable Jawahar Lal Nehru inaugurated our restaurant at Jama Masjid. We have named our restaurant on his name, Al Jawahar. Our grandfather laid the foundation of this restaurant. This is the fourth generation who has taken forward his legacy which is synonymous with the gastronomic landscape of Old Delhi. Growing by the leaps and bounds, this business is now owned by 3 brothers; named Mohd Akhter, Mohd Akram, and Mohd Asif.
Serving authentic Mughlai food, we are loyal to our traditional recipes. As the latest trend of Indian palette is getting more tentative, we try to stick to the conventional and original style. Akhtar Foods By Al Jawahar

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ My friends recommended me this place so i visited there few days back only. I had mutton korma with tandoori roti, the food was fresh and tasty. The quality and the quantity was pretty good. The staff was very friendly, If you love mughlai food then I would definitely recommend you to visit this place.
The nearest metro station is jama masjid metro station gate number 1.
If you are coming on 2 or 4 wheeler then it would be an issue for you as there is no parking available.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I visited there 2nd time & I'm sure this was last.
1 - Biryani Was Just Fried Rice No Fragrance No Flavor No Taste, Mutton Piece Was Like Just Boiled Not Cooked Properly.
2 - We Had Seek Kebab Too, It Was Also Very Disappointing No Taste At All.
3 - All Dishes Were Cold Even Not On Room Temperature So That Was Our Last Time.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Not recommended at all. Very Overhyped and Over rated. I had heard a lot about the Mutton Nihari. But believe me I felt cheated when I took the first bite. The biryani was of the worst category. One should come to Odisha and try the Biryani, Mutton Curry and you will know the actual taste of Non Veg. Better spend your hard earned money in other better restaurants. This was my last visit to Al Jahawahar. Now I realise, Google should have a provision to give Negative start Ratings.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Had heard quite a lot about this place. But the experience was like a Salman movie... High on expectations but missing on substance. The taste of the kebabs and tikkas was good but the place misses warmth... Very cold reception... Dirty waiters...expected a cozy buzzing place. Ordered mutton burrah and fried chicken with roomali... Taste wise 5/5. But, why are you guys miser on pyaaz and chutney. Had some awesome kebabs outside from a roadside outlet which was tastier and the guy served with a smile. Better to have at raees chicken or many others on the same road. But, if you want to sit down and eat, then this is the go to place. Maybe, I expected more.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Al Jawahar is known for it's mughlai food and well known with good capacity for sitting, they've good arrangements (approx. 3 floors) but maintenance is slight low & bit unhygienic & service & hospitality is bit poor. If you visit Jama Masjid do try the place.
We ordered -
- Chicken & Mutton Seekh Kabab
- 'Chicken Changezi vth Rumali Roti' (heard a lot about it)
- Chicken Biriyani
We ordered for Rumali Roti but without informing the waiter brought Tandoori Roti, as Rumali Roti got over.
* The seekhs are really soft n juicy, with chutney...???
* The Chicken Changezi was amazing, bit spicy but tastes good, quite big, tender & sufficient pieces. As per our capacity, half can be serve for 4 people.
* I love Biryani so I thought lets give it a shot. Looks wise the Biryani seems okay but truly disappointed. The biryani was not at all good, it literally was boiled rice with colors served with chicken pieces. It lacked aroma and flavor.
Just opposite to Al Jawahar there is one small sweet shop we had Shahi tukda with Rabdi & that was yummy. 100 gms costs Rs.30/- for Shahi Tukda, if you want to add rabdi it will cost Rs.70/-.

AMAZING......
Mutton Nihari is awesome. Meat is tremendously tender, just melts in the mouth. It is slowly cooked, gravy is thick n the ghee, chilies n ginger garnish savors the dish. It's worth trying.
Mutton Changezi is also good.
Way better than next door overhyped place (hope it's understood)
The prices, however, I believe are a bit on the higher side compared it being at Old Delhi.
