jwala restaurant

one of the worst restaurant..ppl r there u to cheat..price onmenuis totally different from what comes in bill..n if u point out that staff will start argument with u like take ur money n all..

this is a beautiful restaurant, truly giving the feel that you’re no longer in doha. themenuhas a variety of exciting options, a feast for the eyes i would say. delicious starters and mains that were bursting with flavour!! i would only say that they had less vegetarian options available under their main course, however the vegetarian options they had were very good and the dhal was amazing!! service was friendly and polite, however a bit slow and sometimes unclear explanations were given but their friendliness made up for it. really unique experience and a place to add on your restaurant bucket list.

this restaurant is one of my favorite restaurants in qatar where they have many different dishes suitable for everyone .. i often go with friends and family in different numbers of guests (4 to 6) where they are suggesting very good dishes and quantities.

my last visit was a business dinner (party of 24 guests) .. for me it was a challenge. but with help and support the great staff this restaurant has they make my live easy and they are looking to make my experience a unforgettable experience .. they have prepared everything from a to z. they are having a very good brand chef mr. suvendu roy who prepare the setmenuwith perfect quantity and quality of food he did amazing job with us.

for sure this experience was an unforgettable experience mainly because of jwala staff .. they are looking after everyone to provide the best service in very professional why specially ms. sara .. always ask about her if you are looking for the perfect service.

with the expected crowd on a thursday night.. we waited patiently for our call. we were disappointed with te service.. we had asked for 5 pax table.. and the plates n cutleries were kept for 4 and had to request for the extra set. we were served with water.. and they dint provide us with glass. and on asking.. they served us in disposable glass.!! food is not bad.. they were fast in getting the orders.. the newmenuis fine. the lollylops flavours r gud n differnt.. dint like te butter chicken lasagne as i dint gt te taste of butter chicken and it too creamy and cheesy . breads got hard within a few minutes. anyways.. to travel all te way to pearl to get a good dining experience.. isnt worth it at all to come here! mite not come here again.. atleast on a weekend for sure!

i went here with my family after a friend said she was "highly impressed" by their new menu. almost all the dishes she had tried were from the non-veg options, however we ordered only veg dishes. even though we went pretty late on a sunday night, i was surprised by how crowded the place was. we had to wait ten minutes before we were seated. the ambiance was quite nice; the interior reminded me of desi dhaba and they had live entertainment in the form of a man who sang classic indian songs. we ordered the mumbai cocktail soup, the khushi khushi pakura, the kurkura sandwich, kishani bazar with naan and for dessert, we got the rasmalai tres leches. 

the soup looked beautiful with three different colored layers. after mixing it up, it was creamy and thick with a taste somewhere between lentil and tomato soup. we enjoyed the soup quite a bit. 

the khushi khushi pakura was just the basic onion pakora, but it tasted amazing because it was fresh, crispy and not greasy at all. it was served with a sweet jaggery chutney and the sprinkling of chaat masala on the pakoras gave it a nice salty flavor. 

the kurkura sandwich reminded me of a bread pakora and while i had high hopes for this dish, it was the one i liked least among all that we ordered. not only was the sandwich incredibly greasy, it had absolutely no flavor. i had to pour some of the chutney that was served with the onion pakoras onto my sandwich just to make it have some taste.

we ordered the kishani bazar because among the veg curry options, it was the only 'unique' curry that we hadn't seen on themenuof any other restaurant. it was a cashew nut based curry with (i think) zucchini, tomato, mushrooms and eggplant. the curry was a bit on the bland side, but after adding some salt to it, it was quite nice and we enjoyed eating it with the naan.

finally, the dessert. the rasmalai tres leches seemed to be the most popular dessert there as i had seen almost every table order one of these. and after trying it myself, i could definitely see why. it's basically a milk cake topped with cream and banana slices with a heap of soan papri on top, with saffron and edible flower petals as toppings. it tasted absolutely amazing and was just the right amount of sweet. this was definitely our favorite dish of the night.

overall, i thought jwala was a great place to have dinner. their presentation is very chic and while it was a bit on the pricy side, compared to the other indian restaurants in the pearl, i'd still consider it reasonably priced. i'd definitely recommend you to go try out this place at least once.

*i’m basing this review from when theirmenuwas a limited time offering due to their soft opening*

the whole place has an indian vibe inside, with the walls resembling a worn down building. even a thumbs up bottle was painted as well.

i felt that the food was good, but some of the condiments didn’t pack the punch that indians would demand. portion sizes felt fine for most dishes but would love to see an option to pick portions when ordering.

loved the old menu.. was shocked by the newmenu. whatever is on the newmenucan be found anywhere with the same quality and better price..frankly speaking all the things that i craved in the oldmenuis not found in the new menu, i can eat butter chicken and birayni anywhere, this place is not unique anymore:) update your menu!

jwala provides a totally new experience.
amazing decor... great ambience... live indian street music....
the newmenuis amazing... make sure to have your phones charged, the food presentation is very nice and the food is delicious.
very friendly staff, great service and great value for money!!

appologies to rate u this low.. disappointed seeing themenujust a one pagemenuliterally and from that also all vegetarian items were not available except for dal n naan.. if u trying the indian cuisine first time and do not want to get confused this may b the place but not worth the price they charging.. we walked out of the restaurant seeing themenuas for me being asian indian i found nothing interesting that i could order and would want to taste something new. but the lady server was kind to give us a heads up saying nothing in veg available except two items . the location is prime and unfortunately they did not use it to their strength .. hope the work on it and pull more crowd

the ambiance is fine but not as what the zomato reviews are ! have called a day previous and booked the table , it took them hours to respond and give a confirmation over the whatsup thou the conversation was read long back .they wouldnt respond over the call after 7 to 8 tries as well.
since it was a new place and wanted to make it a special suprise for my friend i was particular to go this place ! but it was a wrong decision.

this place is not for vegges .themenuon the zomato and there own website is wrong ,which they wont inform while booking .themenuhas changed and theres nothing but dhal for the vegetarian option ,for the main course ,when we went there.

informing this to the supervior or the chef didnt help .he said it was purely to do with management !

overall rating this 1 mainly due to themenuoptions ,bad management .

been to this place for a birthday party invite. we were a group of 10 and veggies and seen this place after checking the veggiemenuin zomato and website. when we are at the restaurant here comes a newmenuand no veggie dish other than dhaal. do anyone goes to hotel in pearl to have dhaal. when the complaint was registered with the manager he is blaming the management for not updating the zomato or website. is this a way to tell things to the customer. i would not recommend this place to anyone as the ambience is so bad and the staff are not at all good and responsible. if rating is available for 0 i would have given

great restaurant best onion pakora anywhere extensivemenugood atmosphere great service live music highly recommended you won't be disappointed

we didn’t enjoy our experience here! half of the items on themenuwere not available and the other half were not up to the mark!! the restaurant lacks authenticity in taste of food!! courteous staff and location of the restaurant are only 2 good points about this place!!
