    JALWA Indian Bistro is a must go to. Our neighbors mentioned the newly opened restaurant and we decided to give it a try. Service was impeccable even though they were full (never saw an opened table longer than the time it took to clean it). We started with the naan with an Italian twist/3 house made butters. Get out of your comfort zones and try all 3 even if you “think” you may not like it (yummmmm). Our table ordered the chicken tikka masala, lamb dish (beyond incredible), and the chicken kaali mirch korma. The lamb shanks took home the prize followed closely by both the korma and tikka masala. A wonderfully delicious night!

    Kanki is always a favorite of ours-Mother’s Day was busy & reservations were a must for a holiday like this. We were sat within 10 minutes of our reservation time & hostess kept us updated. Our server (Darren) & Chef Rickey were amazing. It was extremely busy but server kept water refilled and checked on us several times. Food was cooked perfectly. It was quite loud due to birthday songs & packed room for Mother’s Day but it was a fun meal. We will definitely be back again. Thank you Kanki!
