Jalwa:Modern Indian Dining

My mom and I were looking for a quick place for lunch and happened upon Jalwa. We looked at the menu and peeked in: busy at lunch hour but an open table! VK Verma stepped out and warmly invited us in. What a great decision. I had the palak paneer lunch special and Mom had the chicken tandoori lunch special ($15 each). I also had the mango lassi--delicious and the right amount of sweetness. The portions are perfect, and all lunches come with a vegetable of the day, dal, basmati rice, roti or naan and dessert! The food was very fresh and tasty. Rasmalai for dessert on Tuesday and Kheer today. Yes, we have already been twice. I have found my favorite Indian restaurant in NJ! P.S. Very accommodating for Gluten Free Eaters. Celiacs and Gluten-Sensitive folks, rejoice! Very easy parking nearby.

We got lunch specials, which are very reasonably priced. The food was incredible! My favorites were the aloo gobi and the eggplant. I didn't think the naan quite lived up to everything else, but that was a very high standard. They also did a great job managing a celiac customer.
