Daawat in Dawat Nov 1 2010. I have been to Dawat twice. My first visit was out of curiosity and second to confirm what I found. I read many reviews about the restaurant before my first visit, after the send I wish to write one. Authentic Indian food of international quality standards served with American standard of services tagged with 5 star prices.

I think that explains all about Dawat in a nutshell.

Excellent Food & Service. This restaurant was recommended by an Indian friend who raves about the food here-- our experience surpassed already high expectations. Waiters very knowledgeable of menu. Service was truly great. Lamb chops were recommended by our friend and were amazing-- aged for 72 hrs and pure heaven. Chicken Currie home style was tender with an amazing sauce. Wine selection was reasonably priced. We will definitely be back.

one of the best. In NYC there are many many Indian places.... Dawat is on my top 5. I live very close to Dawat and even though it has Chola and Yuva on the same block.. Dawat stands out by itself. The food is amazing and the service is great. My GF and i always switch up between Dawat and Bukhara Grill on 49th as she lives by it. Dawat is deff worth the money

delicious indian food. Everything about this place was great.... the location near to the 4/5/6 train line, as well as N/R/W. I shared a few indian dishes with my friend... we tried a few rice curries, coconut pakori, chicken tikka massala...

all in all great food and service!

Bad Service!!. I went here for restauarnt week 2008. I didn't even order from the prix fix menu, BUT my order was the same size as the prix fixed menu's. I know bc my friends order the same dish as me, but i ordered the entree, but all came in a small bowl. I was VERY disappointed. The food was pricey, i had one entree my friends had the prix fixed, each of us paid $45 each. It was crazy!! I didn't even have dessert. By the way, we ate at this restaurant for almost 3 hours. The service was terrible, it took forever to get the dessert & the check. If you have a lot of time and like small portions, this place is great for you. By the way, the food wasn't bad.
