Halal Reviews for Jamavar Mayfair

3/5 Stars overall 2 or even 1 star for service : Excellent Food, Disappointing Service Pace and repeated interuptions ​The ambience is lovely and the food is excellent, truly deserving of the Michelin star. However, the service significantly impacted our experience. ​We were repeatedly and annoyingly interrupted during our 7 pm business dinner by staff pressuring us to order the next course, citing the two-hour table limit. We knew this but then interrupting and not delivering was quite annoying. They were initially slow with drinks, but then aggressively rushed us through the meal, which felt unwelcome and unprofessional. Furthermore, the staff seemed disorganized: they missed one guest's starter and forgot my dessert totally, requiring multiple reminders. But still they kept saying "the table is booked for two hours sir" even after it was there fault to deliver correct orders... The restaurant was empty after 9.30 so not sure what they wanted...looked like the staff wanted to go home more than anything... Was wondering who would book a Michelin star restaurant after 9.30 pm (even they want a second round per table) if they want to enjoy a Michelin star experience... Bad service... The mango lassi wasnt great as well other food and desert especially the gajrela and the rasmalai were very tasty. ​Great food, but the inconsistent and rushed service needs immediate attention to match the quality of the cuisine and the price point.

The food was excellent, but the service was truly disappointing, well below the standards of any Michelin-starred restaurant I’ve visited. From inattentive staff to an overall lack of warmth, it felt more like we were being tolerated than hosted. Ironically, the peak of hospitality came before we even sat down: the doorman was the only one who seemed genuinely pleased to see us. In fact, the most gracious part of the experience was stepping back out onto Mount Street, where the service noticeably improved.

I had a wonderful experience at Jamavar this past weekend. We tried their Mango Tasting Menu, and it was a fantastic meal, both in terms of presentation and flavour. Our server, Anusha, was so kind and attentive, and the experience was defined by her thoughtful work and friendly conversation. I'd love to be back someday! My favourite dishes were the lobster main, and the mango tart with sorbet :)

Truly exceptional Indian food, aloo dish, tikka chicken and lamb biryani absolute best ever. Can’t emphasize just how perfectly spiced and delicious they were. The seabass slightly less so but still very good. Strange service especially very long wait for drinks. Servers should have recommendations for a place like that where 90% of the dishes are not recognizable, even to an Indian food veteran. They were very nice to let us dine there in shorts against their dress code, but it was 90 degrees out so not sure why they didn’t waive it up front! Very nice atmosphere overall.
