Food was good. I ordered medium spicy and it was not spicy at all. I guess I can’t totally blame them, they are probably afraid to give Americans actual spicy food. My one major complaint - I ordered the chicken Makhani, which was delicious however, it was $27 for the order and had a total of 5 pieces of chicken. And when I say piece I mean 1 inch x 1 inch cube. Not even enough for 1 person. Not a very good value and there are many Indian places in Montclair.

Had an amazing dinner at Jalwa and left thoroughly impressed. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt vibrant yet welcoming, making it the perfect place for a relaxed evening out.
What makes Jalwa special is how effortlessly it combines authentic North Indian Delhi classics with creative fusion dishes. Whether you’re craving nostalgic flavors from the streets of Delhi or looking to try something with a modern twist, the menu offers the best of both worlds.
We started with the Palak Chaat, which was light, crispy, and bursting with flavor. The Mango Tulsi Prawn was a pleasant surprise—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully balanced. The Spicy Eggplant was smoky and comforting, and the Fig Naan added just the right touch of sweetness to complement the meal.
The highlight of the night was definitely the butter chicken duo. The Pandara Road Butter Chicken brought back memories of classic North Indian flavors with its rich, creamy sauce, while the Aslam Butter Chicken was indulgent, buttery, and packed with character. It’s not often that two versions of the same dish stand out in their own unique way, but Jalwa absolutely nailed it.
A special shout-out to Nayan for making our experience even better. He took the time to understand what we enjoyed and guided us through the menu with genuine enthusiasm.
What I loved most was that nothing felt rushed. We were able to enjoy each dish, soak in the atmosphere, and have one of those meals that turn into lasting memories. If you’re looking for a place that celebrates authentic Delhi-style cuisine while also embracing innovation, Jalwa is a must-visit..
