I had an amazing experience here, & I especially want to thank Mr. Arjun for his outstanding customer service. He was incredibly kind, understanding, & considerate of my situation.
Unfortunately, I have allergies to many of the ingredients they use, which made it difficult for me to fully enjoy my meal. Even so, Mr. Arjun went above & beyond to help, & his genuine care made such a positive impression that it made me want to come back.
Although I wasn't able to finish my dish because of my allergies, my mom absolutely loved it & completely devoured the plate! The food was delicious, & the hospitality was even better.
Thank you, Mr. Arjun, for making us feel so welcome. Exceptional service like yours is hard to find, & it's the reason we'll gladly recommend this restaurant to others.
I've been coming here regularly with my friend, & this place never disappoints. The food is always fresh, delicious, & consistent. The mango lassi is honestly one of my favorites-it's the perfect drink to go with the meal.
A big shoutout to Arjun, the owner, who is always friendly & welcoming. He treats customers like family & makes the whole experience even better. This has become our go-to spot whenever we're craving good Indian food. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I'm a wedding planner & I had the pleasure of working with Arjun & his team who provided catering for a wedding event. Arjun was responsive accommodating & very easy to work with leading up to & on the day of the event. His kitchen & waitstaff team were excellent. The food was fresh & delicious! I highly recommend Dawat for any & all catering needs!
First time coming here; it's not a restaurant where you can eat, just for pick up & delivery. I ordered the Butter Chicken Combo which comes in a divided container with rice, potatoes, mixed salad, naan & the Butter Chicken. While I waited, I was offered a complimentary mango lassi which was quite nice. The people working there are very pleasant. I asked for the Butter Chicken to be very spicy & it was a little spicy. The food was quite good, the Butter Chicken was good, but not the same recipe I've had at a couple of other restaurants which I crave. The naan was also good & if you want potatoes, quite tasty although I wasn't hungry enough for them. I did enjoy the salad which was lettuce, tomato, cucumber, red onion & a simple dressing. I'll have to continue my search for the ultimate Butter Chicken, but I'm sure I'll be back to try some of their other dishes.
