I recently hosted a large gathering at JALSA in Brooklyn for 50 people, including 20 children, and the experience was absolutely outstanding! A massive thank you to Naushin (Nowshin Ali), who was instrumental in helping us arrange every detail of the event. She was incredibly accommodating and made the planning process seamless. One of the most impressive parts of our visit was the staff's flexibility; while the restaurant typically closes at 10:00 PM, they graciously extended their hours until midnight just for our group so we could fully enjoy our celebration. The atmosphere was perfect for a large family event—the space is beautiful, unpretentious, and very spacious. The kids had an absolute blast, especially with the serving robot, which was a huge hit and kept them entertained throughout the night. The food was, as always, delicious and authentic, and the service remained top-notch even with such a large crowd. If you are looking for a place in Brooklyn that can handle big groups with warmth and professional care, I cannot recommend JALSA enough. Thank you, Naushin, and the entire JALSA team for making our night so memorable!

We used to be Jalsa regulars. We moved several years ago and I really missed their food. Was in the neighborhood recently and ordered all my old favorites. One bite and the memories of delicious food came flooding back. Their food is amazing. And for the carnivores out there, dont skip on the vegetarian dishes. As a meat lover, I can't get enough of the veggie dishes. They're simply amazing! Hope to be back sooner this time around.

Jalsa never misses. The food is always on point and my partner loves that they have South Indian cuisine instead of just the usual North Indian that you find in most American Indian food. We are pretty picky about restaurants in general, but I can’t complain about Jalsa! It’s the only restaurant we go to or order takeout from on repeat.

Quality food served so fresh! I especially loved simran the robot who spoke so nicely when delivering food to the table! I often order for delivery and the staff remembered me from my orders! Home away from home.

I ordered Paneer Nizami which was very tasty and rich in flavour. I specifically asked them to keep the spice level high, and that was a great call, it had a nice medium-spicy Indian restaurant taste. The only downside was the portion size, which felt a bit small and also they don’t provide rice with it.

Genuinely incredible food. My go to delivery. Extremely flavorful!
I ordered from Jalsa for the first time yesterday. Great service, order was taken immediately and staff was pleasant. As for the food, The chicken vindaloo didn't taste generic, it was definitely a superior vindaloo. The chicken tikka masala was equally excellent, but what really stood out where the lamb Samosa's, brittle on the outside, moist and succulent and savory on the inside. This places is a place for people who do know how cook the different dishes they serve here but don't feeling like cooking. It's my first ordering but will not be my last time.

Don't sleep on their goat nihari. Instead sleep after you eat it, when the food coma hits.
The goat nihari and the winter saag special were both incredible. I'm also so pleased we got the jackfruit kabab because somehow I liked it even more than its lamb counterpart- which was also very good btw.
Can't wait to return.
