Have been to Moti Mahal outlets in Gurgaon, CP, and Dwarka. Have liked the service, ambience and of course the food. Have been to this place with family and friends - this place is suitable for both. They have good variety for vegetarians and non-vegetarians. Definitely a place to visit if you are looking for North Indian fare.

It was my first real experience with North Indian Food as we had been in the south for the majority of our trip thus far. The butter chicken was... More

Their non-veg dishes are to die for. It is said that butter chicken or tandoori chicken(cant remember which one it was) originated from this restaurant and both are a must have.

I only go to Moti Mahal for one reason - their tandoori chicken. In my opinion, they have one of the best tandoori chicken in town. Most of the tandoori chicken I ate elsewhere tends to be dry in the inside, but Moti Mahal's version is always tender and slightly moist which make the meat very pleasant and fragrant. However...

This restaurant in GK, M-Block market was once my family's favourite but with time it has just gone bad or may be other restaurants have improved with time but this still hasn't! I was here with my family last week and didn't really like the food. We ordered paneer tikka as a starter and dal makhani, malai kofta with bread... More

Try out Dal Makhanai the original Indian style and some yummy chicken dishes. The Restaurant claims the legacy of making Dal Makhani. Ambiance is good and you will find decent crowd for the family dinner Not much hit on your pocket too
