The food was very average and the menu is super limited. The ambience is good. One of the most annoying things was that they do not the most basic requirement of a wash basin. You are required to exit the restaurant and cross the lobby at the entrance in order to use the washroom or wash basin. Service is also very off. I had the prawns bamboo biryani which was loaded with spice. The chicken pakoras were not cooked well, had a lot of ginger garlic taste in it. The only thing that was ok were the chutneys.

Nan with Butter Chicken
A very good Indian restaurant inside the Holiday Inn Hotel in Salmiya, Kuwait. Cosy ambience with Indian decorations, delicious food, courteous staff. A good variety of food items to choose from- grilled (tantoor), Biriyani and rice, Indian bread, starters and sweets. Generous portions at affordable prices.

Jamawar is a great option for tasty Indian dishes. The restaurant is currently merged with the Tang Chao (Chinese) restaurant inside Holiday Inn, Salmiya.
We tried their set menu for 2 persons. It comprised of lentil soup, salad, a starter dish of chicken tikka, samosa and onion bajja, followed by main dish of butter chicken, chicken biryani and dal makhani (popular North Indian lentil dish) and gulab Jamun (a sugary treat)
Everything tasted great but it was too much for us, but they were kind enough to pack it for us for takeaway.
Prices are on the higher side but they normally have coupons for kd 6.950 on sheeel.com. For that price, it is well worth it.
Great food and authentic Indian flavors in all the dishes that we tried..Their zafrani tikkas are surely recommended..the only part that turned me off was the food coloring which I felt could be substituted by some other spices...
We ordered chicken biryani. It was spicy and exactly cooked the way Indians prefer.
Butter chicken and butter paneer was fair enough.. although paneer was less and more was gravy.
Overall great ambience and good food..👍
Some of the best Indian food you will eat. Chef Imtyaz was fantastic and very welcoming, and his food is incredible as always. An expert in many regions of Indian cuisine, 10/10
