Haveli Modern Indian Cuisine — Restaurant in Lodi

Honestly, so pleasantly surprised by this restaurant! We were able to go when it first opened and the food was so good! The space is super clean which is important to us. all of the food was well balanced flavor wise which is hard to come by with a lot of local restaurants. The chana masala is the best I’ve ever had in my life! We are vegetarian and we ordered the palak chaat, lasooni gobi, methi gota, achari and thecha paneers and literally of all of was so good. The palak chaat was tempura fried so it was so light and crispy! For mains, we ordered chana masala, paneer labadar, and palak paneer which were all amazing. We can’t wait to try other options. The table next to us got the sham savera which looked amazing too. We were too stuffed for dessert but there were a few unique options we went to try in the future. 10/10 and we would absolutely recommend if you’re looking for really good Indian food in the area (which we think the area was...

Whatever pepper went into this it must have been put through a blender because there were no visible signs that they added anything else to this world famous Indian dish. We only had a few bites each before we had to throw it out.

Everything else was nice, but what they did to their butter chicken was absolutely awful. Giving 2 stars because everything...

We stopped by with a group of friends and ended up leaving as full-on fans. The thecha paneer was the star of the night — spicy, vibrant, and honestly to die for. The dal makhani had that slow-cooked, buttery depth that makes you want to guard the bowl like treasure.

The breads were super soft, fresh off the tandoor, and perfect for scooping up every last bit. And the chicken biryani? Spot on. Fragrant, flavorful, and cooked exactly the way biryani should be.

It’s the kind of place that works for everything — a cozy meal with family, a night out with friends, or even takeout when you want something truly good at home. Already...
