Directly opposite Karim's near Jama Masjid, Al-Jawahar has been feeding Old Delhi's Muslim quarter since 1947. The restaurant serves generous portions of Mughlai classics - nihari, mutton biryani, korma, and haleem - at prices even lower than Karim's. The ambiance is simple and bustling, with communal tables and the aroma of slow-cooked meats filling the air.
