Jot Mahal Palace of Indian Cuisine

No frills Indian buffet restaurant and pocket friendly Good things- all the curries were good, tasty and almost authentic. Roti/naan is flufy, made of whole wheat. One roti per person, additional charge for more. Which is pretty good, a normal person can eat one roti and some rice. No need to make it unlimited and charge everyone for that option. Kheer was good. Felt family owned and comfortable. Could improve - pakode were fried in old oil, you taste the old grease. Jamun had similar taste. No papad or good starter for vegetarians. No tea. Ice cream was included but machine was broken. The ambiance needs more investment and care.

Good $15 lunch buffet, 3 veg, 3 chicken dishes, rice, pakora, desserts include vanilla and chocolate ice cream. Fresh naan. Nothing bad, nothing amazing.

Great place . Loved there naan and the Tandoori chicken. I didn't get pictures of the naan as it looked so delicious.

It’s another great experience. Restaurants like these are the reason that I love local restaurants. Many are family businesses and hardworking, friendly, dedicated people work here. We enjoyed every single bite of the meal from Jot Mahal. We had chicken tikka masala, samosa with potatoes and green peas, chicken curry, garlic naan and plain naan. I have to say all dishes were great, fresh and authentic. Considering the quality, the price is very very reasonable. This is my absolute favorite Indian restaurant in Berkeley. The servers are helpful, happy and polite. They are knowledgeable and make great recommendations. Jot Mahal is family friendly and safe. I highly recommend a visit.
