Raj the owner and chef is top notch. Creative and innovative and takes time to get out and speak with his guests, explain his recipes, and share details of their origin. Last night had Bhindi Masala, which is dry sautéed okra with serious spices, peas pulao, which is extra long grain jasmine rice with currents, cashews, fresh basil, and if course, peas. Started with a Patrani Machli, which is fish steamed in a banana leaf. Raj's latest incarnation of this traditional northern indian dish has a salmon filet gently seasoned with black mustard seed, jalapeño pepper, and his secret spices. Moist, tender, and delicious. A lasse mango and I've been blessed by Krishna.
Just had the most wonderful meal again this past weekend at Haveli. I have been going there every year for the past 20 years while I am downtown attending the Hinman dental convention. My wife was so amazed by the chicken tikka masala, and the chef outdid himself by serving her a sweet yogurt he made from scratch for dessert. Terrific service and great wine pairings completed a perfect dining experience. A personal tour of the kitchen to show us how naan is made in a tandoor oven was icing on the cake. Needless to say I can see another twenty years of being a loyal Haveli customer in my future!!
The venue is ❤️🔥❤️🔥 soo nice inside. My favorite thing to order is the turkey sliders and potato wedges. Live DJs and themed nights. The owners are super nice and almost always there when I go. Ro is the best waitress there right now and im not debating it either... I will be going again soon.
I enjoyed the staff conversation as they were truly engaged. They have great advice on the menu and stated they would make any adjustments, if needed. The chicken tikka masala is top notch! The menu items were sightly more than expected with an average of $15/item. Some items were over the $20 range. Alcohol is not priced on the menu therefore leading you into a $10 lager (Taj Mahal). YIKES! It's not a super fast serve but they cook the food to order so I'm ok with that scenario. Enjoy your company. All in all, a tasty dinner for two with drinks will run you in the $60-80 range.
The food and service were excellent. I would return.
Dope spot and food is great! Karaoke night is crazy!!! 5 stars
Every time I visit Atlanta I like to stop by this place. Its got great food and very convenient location by walking if you are near Olympic Centennial Park.
I love the staff as they are very friendly and love to make suggestions. I ordered a very spicy menu item and asked for it "mild" and they stuck to their guns and said basically "it wouldn't be that item if it wasn't that spicy". I liked that to be honest. He ended up making it with a just a bit less of the sauce and it still tasted amazing.
Another waiter also gave us great recommendations regarding Naan and storing it and eating it later with various sauces. So we left with some tasty items for the evening.
Nice hidden gem in atlanta. Good drinks and music but the food was awful my wings and fries were crispy/hard. But other than that staff is cool
My family came to Atlanta for the Big South volleyball tournament. We love Indian food and found Haveli. Honestly we were skeptical based on the mixed reviews but took the chance. Restaurant was slow when we visited and we had a great experience. All four entrees we had were delicious. Staff was attentive and the chef even came out to speak with us. Truely a great experience. Give it a try. We hope your experience will be as good as ours.
Absolutely the best Indian food I've ever had. I've worked in the service industry for several years now and this is my favorite restaurant experience of all my ventures. The staff is very friendly, and the Owner, Raja, always goes out of his way to make sure the customer is having a good time. Both the buffet and dinner service is incredible.
Highly recommend, especially as a regular dinner experience.
Hidden gem! We have gone to Haveli twice on trips to Atlanta two years apart. Both experiences were wonderful. The restaurant smells really good and the atmosphere is warm and inviting. Never too many people. Great, friendly, and attentive service with excellent food. We had dinner entrees the first time we went, which were unbelievably delicious. We knew on our second trip to Atlanta that we had to eat there again. We did the lunch buffet, which was well priced and had a large variety of very good food. We loved being able to try so many different dishes. Would recommend to everyone to experience this place!
The food here is great, but takes a long time to be prepared if you are in a large group. If you can look past the speed of service, you will enjoy this place, as the north Indian food is great. But, be warned that if there is a large amount of people, your food may take close to an hour to arrive (this occurred to one individual dining with us) unless you are lucky.
