About this business
Many believe that there is a lack of good Indian food compared to many other cuisines in New York City, particularly when it comes to upscale restaurants. Dawat helps make up for that deficiency. The elegant, spacious interior is inviting, and painted masks on the walls add a sense of the exotic. The excellent food will win over even those who claim to dislike Indian cuisine. There is tandoori and other typical Indian fare, as well as more exotic regional dishes.

Why lie ? – My question to all the reviewrs is that why do you guys lie. If these reviews here were true then i wouldnt be whining about it. Dawat was most definately a mistake. There are far better choices on the same street. The Food was bad and cold, when asked to replace it i was told that the kitchen is closed. The service was slow and u all say its good? Never going back. Yuva is beeter.
Better than others – A person here left this review which i definately agree with. I dont know y i decided to go here, one reason i think was City search another was just me being dumb. Iv tried all the restaurants on this street including Chola and Ada. With tough competetion... 4 indian restaurants on the same street i expected them to have good food or service or quality of presentation; i mean at least something. None of these restaurants would qualify for being there. I believe they should get a new Management, chef or ... read more
Dawut: Done right. – After having no luck trying to find a whole other place entirely, a friend and I inadvertently ended up at Dawat (pronounced da' vut), a fancypants Indian restaurant on East 58th Street, where we were pleasantly surprised by the yummy eats and incredibly attentive service, not to mention finding out that this eaterie was the brainchild of Madhur Jaffrey, the film and television actor who, in Britain, is also known for her role as an acclaimed chef and hostess of her own cooking show. We started with Dahi... read more
another example of mediocre upscale indian – There's just nothing all that great about this place. The spices are bland, the service is mediocre and tries to shoo you out the door... get much better Indian at, say, Jewel of India, or most likely at some downscale places in Jackson Heights (though I haven't tried them)
Best Authentic Indian Restuarante in NYC Hands Down – Everything was absolutely amazing from the atmosphere, to the service and of course the food. You will not find a place like this any where else in the city.
best place ever – Oh.. the best indian restaurant ever! where to begin? The food was super and the service was great. Busy place but worth it. We liked it so much that we returned the same night! (actually, my mom kinda left a gift there and we had to go back to retrieve it LOL). Definitely the best place to take your family to.
simply great – great authentic food great service great atmosphere what more can u ask from a restaurant? it will surely become one of your favorites!
Indian Food with Character – As a well traveled socialite, I have had my share of Indian cuisine. From NY to San Francisco, I have been to the so-called best fine dining Indian restaurants all over the US. In NY is where things get difficult. With a plethora of places to choose from, selecting a spot with a taste that sticks out is not an easy task. Indian food has the same base anywhere you go, but its the character of the food that leaves an impression. When I say character, Im talking about the texture, the aroma, the pre... read more
Great Food! – Great decore, fast and professional service. Good place to bring a date. I will be going back very soon.
