    Full marks to the location, service, especially outdoor seating, I went immediately after the rain, weather was beautiful. Calm & quite surroundings. The food is fine.. Chef tasting platter (a thali with all the dishes) was a great experience. Visit for lazy lunch or dinner.

    Lunch today at Mealability was a mixed bag. Had gone with a lot of expectations based on reviews and chatter on Twitter. Excellent ambience, sitting outside with sound of water falling in the fountain , greenery, breeze ! Ordered kahawa- excellent, sensational, enjoyed it tremendously. Main course was veg platter , roomali roti & rogan josh. Veg platter was a complete sampler of vegge main courses on the menu- enjoyable & sumptuous. Rogan josh had to be sent back, not eatable really. The manager was more an advocate for the restaurant then a sympathetic listener to guest comments. Was actually advocating that Kashmiris like their rogan josh uneatable based on his 30 years of experience!!! Wow . Ordered for a Matasch kofta, nice and succulent, enjoyed. Would like to go back, I wonder though

    Mealability is a Kashmiri restaurant in J& K house at Prithvi Raj road. Location is excellent as entry is from Amrita Shergill marg. Outdoor sitting under trees is excellent too. But meal itself is not upto the mark. Kahwa was not good at all and is too sweet. Rogan Josh was also not good. Portion size is small too. Altogether a mixed experience.

    Beautiful place in the heart of Delhi. Jammu and Kashmir cuisine can be savoured heartily at Mealability. I have been a fan of Sanjay Raina for long, for his love and passion towards his cuisine. Parking can be done on the road outside the restaurant and soon they are building a car park inside as we were informed. I have always loved the Kashmiri Pundit and the Waza cuisine served by him, and this time too it was a similar case. The Trami which is a big vessel heaped with rice and 3-4 types of meat and veg preparations and another 3-4 with it in small bowls. The Rista, Goshtaba and the Haaq, not to forget the Paneer (Chaman) dish each one is amazingly flavourful and delicious. Moreover , they serve you with the subtle and mellow Kahwa (A concoction of spices and dried nuts) which just enhances the best overall experience. Hospitality is upto the mark with trained staff . If you go for dinner prefer the outdoor table and trust me you will fall in love with the place.

    Great Kashmiri food is available here. It is run by Sanjay Raina who is a thinking chef. Both Pandit and Muslim cuisine is available and time to time Jammu good is also on display in mealability. Roganjosh, Dum aalo and Haaq was great. Gustaba was on the saltier side but rista was terrific. Service is good and food in evening will make it a great experience

    #musttry if you are fond of #KashmiriFood MEALABILITY The Flavor of Kashmir Kashmir dominates the Indian imagination like few other places do. Most of us dream of visiting that famed paradise and those fortunate to have been, long to return. The flavours of this cuisine have long been a big draw. At Mealability, you will savour The Flavor of Kashmir and what lies beyond. An unwavering commitment to showcasing Kashmiri culture via cuisine is the raison d’etre at Mealability. And here at No.5, Prithvi Raj Road,, they aim to present the culture on a platter and bring to you aspects of Kashmiri cuisines across the diaspora that might surprise even the diehard foodie. Kashmir’s natural heritage has rightfully earned it the “Paradise on Earth” moniker, but its food heritage is even more divine. History speaks of cooks who came into India in Timur’s retinue and settled in what is now Kashmir, letting their Central Asian culinary traditions slowly infuse into the lives of the people. Mirroring the pace of life in the idyllic Valley, Kashmiri cuisine is one that takes a lot of slow but hard work to prepare. And while it is a celebratory cuisine sought out for its wazwan feasts,they have chosen its festive and well as daily elements for you to savour. Welcome to witness this Fine Art by Sanjay Raina. Well known for curating bespoke menus to , while delivering culinary memories for his guests, Sanjay Raina’s commitment to detail is unrivalled. Executing high end private events and food festivals worldwide, Sanjay Raina is well known for his mastery in dishing out exotic gourmet Kashmiri cuisine. In a short span, he’s definitely become the A-list’s first choice for posh Kashmiri, party food anywhere and everywhere. All the dishes are curated from Sanjay’s extensive menu of authentic Kashmiri offerings and have been handpicked to offer the comfort of some old favorites and the excitement of some new. For starters, Master chef has created a list of delicious vegetarian recipes from a cuisine known for its love of meat. A must try ! #greatfood book it on #eazydiner ...................................................

  • 2/5 Aisha A. 1 year ago on Google
    The place was empty- I think sign #1 for us to just run! 😝 Jokes aside- the food was authentic, however undercooked. The goshtaba balls were medium rare from the inside and not as finely hammered down as I’ve had in Kashmir. The ribs starter was a disaster, two portions for a family of four. Absolutely not tender and just fat fried, it was a pain to even eat it and swallow. Overall, not worth the money they charged. If they can work on their dishes and make increase the portion sizes a tad bit and add some flavour/for that matter just cook the meat, it’ll work!

    [CovidUpdate] This is a hidden gem inside the heart of NCR. A must have if you would like to try out Kashmiri cuisine. The Kawa, the phirni, Tarimi all are next level. We went around 4PM and the place was empty so we enjoyed our lunch in peace, the ambience and the food was worth travelling here for. The manager is very friendly as well and suggests nice dishes. A must visit with family.

    Mealability is an all time favourite for our family. Every time we think Kashmiri we order from here. Sanjay’s personal touch to the food makes the experience all the more wholesome. Strongly recommend it.

  • 1/5 Charu V. 2 years ago on Google
    The one star is only for the courteous behaviour of the manager and the fact that food was delivered at the designated time. I’d ordered from Mealability because I’d heard so much about the restaurant and didn’t want to slog in the kitchen cooking all this myself. The goshtaba and yakhni were not up to the mark. The dum oluv seemed old, without any flavour and an ugh taste. Whosoever put them in their mouth, spit them out in horror. The only saving grace was the rogan josh which could have been more aromatic. Nothing was as a matter of fact. The serving size is pathetic for the price. A big let down. A very bad experience in regards to the taste, flavour, fragrance of the cuisine which one can tell from a mile of it’s well prepared. I’d rather brave the heat and cook myself. My mother and grandmother’s recipes are precious and I have a new found respect for my own culinary skills.

    Mealability was a beautiful experience on the whole! They have both indoor and outdoor seating and the restaurant is located inside Jammu and Kashmir House on Amrita Shergill Marg. We ordered batter fried lotus stem (nadir maunj) for starters and were pleasantly surprised by the flavour and crunch. It was unlike other lotus stem starters we had eaten before. It was served along with mildly spiced raw onions and grated radish in curd (muji chetin). We ordered both a non vegetarian Tarami (Kashmiri thaali) as well as a vegetarian tasting platter, which is the best way to taste the various traditional dishes that make up the Kashmiri wazwan. It was a fulfilling meal with everything from goshtaba, tabak maaz, nadru yakhni, dum oluv, haakh, rista and more, accompanied by simple boiled rice, a sweet and cold phirni, topped off with a mild and piping hot glass of kahawa. The rogan josh was slightly lacking in salt but overall the portions, prices, and flavours were excellent. A must visit if you have an hour to spare and are looking to try out authentic Kashmiri food. Beautiful, calm and quiet ambience. Friendly service.

    It was a memorable 'Kashmir' evening we had @ Mealability. The aromas and flavours of the food will linger on forever. Difficult to make a choice between the Tabakmaaz, Gushtaba, Rista, Rogan Josh, Haak... What a meal. Topped by Phirni and the delicious Shufta. And ofcourse Chef Sanjay Raina who enlightened us on the nuances of Kashmiri cuisine. A must visit for anyone who wants a taste of Kashmir in Delhi.

  • 5/5 Abbinow T. 2 years ago on Google
    Great Hospitality, Authentic Kashmiri cuisine and above all a great location within JK House, New Delhi. Mealability scores on all counts. Highly recommended. A must visit if you are in New Delhi and love Kashmiri food!.

    Thankyou Sanjay Raina, my sister and Mealability team for bringing alive my son's birthday with the much missed Kashmiri Pandit part of his heritage. A surprise birthday present which won over a lot of foodie fans... We loved the koftas and khatte baingan. Liked the sooji phirni, though missed the traditional home cooked one. We especially called our friends over for dinner to enjoy and relish the meal with us.

    Hot and fresh awesome Kashmiri delicacy delivered. The subtle taste and freshness of the ingredients are the hallmark of Chef Sanjay Raina.

  • 5/5 Dervinder S. 1 year ago on Google
    Loved the vegetarian platter as a veg visitor from Malaysia. Authentic Kashmiri flavors for anyone looking to try Kashmiri food. Totally felt different from the average Indian food out there in Delhi. Loved the Kahwa ! Also hope noon chai is brought to menu. Overall a good place to experience authentic Kashmiri cuisine !

  • 5/5 Sadhana G. 2 years ago on Google
    Awesome food. The food was aromatic and each item had a distinctive flavoring. I had requested that the food not be spicy (hot) as we were celebrating my mom’s birthday and she loves mutton but can’t handle chili and I was very happy that she enjoyed everything. Each item was fantastic but my favorite was the mutton yakni. Thanks very much.

  • 5/5 Puneet G. 2 years ago on Google
    Fantastic food. Portions could have been larger though. Small seating area. Would be a good idea to reserve a table in case going at a typically busy time

  • 2/5 Shivan R. 2 years ago on Google
    Very disappointing, no mutton tika , very less availability in veg .no dumallos, avoid coming to this place. Especially for the Kashmiri food.
