• We ordered the recommended chat-papdi appetizer, and were sadly disappointed. It had way too much cilantro and it ran all together like a watery, eggy, mixture. It was too sweet and too spicy at the same time. The service crackers were also too spicy for me and had an odd taste to them, with pockets full of not-so-good flavor and served with two sauces (a diluted syrup and a cilantro paste). Our entree was the Lamb Biryani. This was enough food for two people with food left over. The lamb was cooked inconsistently though. Half of the pieces were moist and delicious, but the other half were spongy, flavorless, and took minutes to chew. The rice itself was the star of the dish. Scooped up with some flaky naan, each grain had a flavor, not to mention the flavors that were mixed into the rice and with the lamb. I would have preferred the egg to be mixed with the rice as well, and as a result, it remained mostly uneaten.
Jaipur’s decor leaves much to be desired, and the service is so-so. Overall, this is a typical shopping-center-restaurant experience. Maybe their lunch buffet is better? |
