We enjoyed the delicious food at this elegant Capital Hill restaurant. Highlights included: tender lamb curry in a silky red curry sauce, cauliflower with spices, saag paneer, cheese in creamy spinach, homemade raita and chutney, pappadam to start. Everything tasted fresh and mild was spicy enough!

This was our first time visiting Jab We Met, and we will definitely return. Its a lovely space with comfy banquet seating and the food was really good. I tried the palak chat and though it's different to Rasika's version, it was good but would be greatly improved with less of the sauces on it (maybe put on the side for people to drizzle their own?) The 3 different curries we had were all excellent, as were the breads. The service was excellent most of the time, though oddly, we found it a little difficult to get someone's attention to get the bill at the end. It wasn't a huge problem but odd given how attentive our waiter had been until then. We did not try any of the interesting sounding cocktails but will do next time! I would definitely recommend visiting Jab We Met for good food, service and nice surroundings.

Received excellent customer service from Sunny. He always know how to make a fine drink that’s not on the menu. He deserves more than a 5*.

Great overall experience. Food was good nothing too spectacular, although I can never rate Indian food without bias because I grew up eating it.
