Odisha Niwas — Hotel in New Delhi

The experience was "Okay".

Yes, one gets to have the local food with affordable price. I would like to visit again sometime. But, How authentic the taste is?

The prawn Masala (3 star)- It was okay. there were a lot of masala,which we didn't even touch. We just ate the prawn. A prawn bhaja addition could be better (that was not in the menu). The same feedback about the oil.

Fish fry (2 star)- This had a lot of fried oil. Really, please replace this with Fish besara bhaja.

The badi chura and mix bhaja- were deep fried. Not authentic at all.
