Just visited Gam's on the way back from Shillong to Guwahati airport.Ā
Location is great as it is on the way so great stop for those travelling :)
Place is huge and spacious, fast and friendly service with great food and prices making it family friendly place where kids can run around :).Ā
We shared simple meal as we were fed up with food at this point haha - yellow daal, rice, green veggies, chicken khorika (ok taste), kheer.
Only negative is dirty bathrooms withĀ no toilet paper :( - please make more efforts to maintain better hygiene levels.
If you want to try authentic Assamese cusine.
This is the place to visit.
Each item was cooked to perfection.
In frame- chicken Thali
You can also try their pork/fish thali
Must try restaurant situated near airport road.
Whole restaurant is made from bamboo including 66% of the rooftop.
They have parking space and all facilities so dont worry about being made of bamboos.
This review is for evening snacks:
We ordered
Hakka noodles - well prepared and tasty
Crispy chilli baby corn - real crispy and tasty
Veg. American choupsey - very good, pineapples were balancing the taste, not much spicy.
Tea - it was machine tea(CCD) so dont expect much, if you like strong tea then you have to mention or explain clearly to staff.
Veg. Manchurian - was tasty
Service : For good food sometimes wait is tasty.
We had to wait for half an hour but food was satisfactory so no regrets.
4 out of 5 overall.
First time I visit guwahati & visit gams delicasy restaurant after reviewing Google rating .

#gamsdelicasy @gams delicasy restaurant
Pure ethnic kitchen.loved the thalis.they have a variety of items in the menu.they provide lot of assamese dish.those who are non assamese they can go there n explore the ethnic food of our assam n yes the taste of the food is also very very good.
Although the prices are a bit higher but the food it really good. The ambience and the staff is just a cherry on the top. Their smoked pork and smoked chicken are my personal favourite.
Serving the most Exquisite assamese cuisine. Traditional dishes are love. Well organized ambience and excellent service. Definitely give a visit with your family and enjoy an amazing meal with the assamese delicacy. Happy eating! :)
This place is very good in serving good assamese dishes, coz it got good variety. The taste is homely, ambience is also typically restaurant look and feel (lighting is very low I felt). Will recommend to go for thali for the first timer, coz of the variety.

Owkay so coming straight to its food, if you are a typical assamese person who like to have vat and a wholesome of assamese dish than guys this is the place . You can never complain about the food its delicious . Here you can order thali here which cost like 400 to 500 ,and it will make you tummy and heart full. But yeah you may need to wait a bit until the food is served, a lot of customers happened to be there and hence they fail to manage . Overall its really good you must try. Whenever i crave of rich assamese dishes ,i jump up to this placešš¤©
This Place was a sudden visit but, it was a great dining experience here. The restaurant has a quiet ambiance and the seating arrangement was sorted. We ordered for a single Pork Thali for two people and it was amazing. I usually don;t go for the veggies and stuff but it was really good. The Pork pieces were tender and juicy and was sufficient for both of us. One thing which is applaudable is the service. The guy who hosted/ served us had amiable nature. He made us comfortable and kept coming and asking us for second helpings. He even went out of his way and served us two kheers while the thali comes with only one. Very small gesture but it was overwhelming. Good Job Guys!
Had stopped here for lunch while on my way from Shillong. And what a treat it was!!! Simply mind blowing. The place was quite beautifully decorated. Very hospitable staff. Assamese food at its best. Had ordered some river fish curry. Fish was very fresh and the curry was subtly spiced. Then we had pigeon meat curry and smoked mutton that was fried. Both tasted great. Double thumbs up for the taste and quality and quantity of food. Service was little slow. Looking to visit again next time I go to Guwahati. The management should think of expanding in Kolkata. There is a very good demand of north eastern cuisine in Kolkata.
Today I was here for 1st time.. Order Veg thali n chicken curry the test was so delicious.. Specially the chicken cury was soo testy. I loved that so much... Also behavior of staff was realy good... Design of interior was really nice...satisfied..
Nice Food ,tasty, not too much spicy , hygiene. For lunch and dinner you can go with family or with friends.
Service is quite well, responsive
Veg thali with rohu fish curry is my all time favourite, a very well known place in guwahati , good ambience easy to locate and also to have a authentic assamese food experience, its a place to give a try, didnt click any pics of the food but would recommend people to visit
Fantastic food and friendly staff. We ordered Veg Sweet Corn Soup and Veg Thali. The soup was delicious while the thali was loaded with different delicious Assamese delicacies. Would love to visit again.
A good place for thalis. They allow you to share a thali which lets you call for more side dishes like pork. This seemed like a popular eat out so booking your table ahead won't be a bad idea.
I ordered the Special pork Thali and I must admit I did not expect to see five dishes of pork in it. It was way more than just a mouthful, and it was really good to have food that was worth my money. The service here is good too because despite its usual rush, food was served quickly. I would recommend this place to everyone.
Being a foodie i like to try the traditional dishes of various states and this restaurant delivers that perfectly. The preparation is amazing you will get the pure traditional dishes in your pallets.
Also, the ambience is good the taste was obviously great.
A good place to try.
Simple tasty food. Looked hygienic. We ordered veg thalis, which had potatoes three ways, two kinds of dal and a pumpkin subzi. I enjoyed it more than the non veg thalis a couple of others had ordered. The non veg versions are a little overpriced I'd say. A good place to savor Assamese cuisine nevertheless.
Ordered food from swiggy amd must say the food is awesome here...they send the food early too.. Been there a lot of tym some years ago but because of the parking problem stopped visiting.. Now that it is online.. I recommend u must try the dishes. They are currently giving 50% off over online delivery š
Ordered sumptuous veg meal from swiggy which is newly launched in guwahati, awesome service awesome food. Authentic Assamese cuisine , the meal includes joha rice, yellow dal, black dal, aloo pitika( mashed potatoes), khar(prepared with raw papaya, vegetables,pulses ), green herbs, vegetable fried, kheer. Would love to visit this place soon.
Today, i tried Gam's delicacy's 'paatot diya chicken' and i loved it. Recipe is quite good, i can feel it. I definitely recommend this dish with joha rice. Happy food hauntingš
Visited Delicacy, and had a very awesome traditional lunch. A must visit restaurant for the ethnic lovers. Ordered Duck with sesame and it was mouth watering. Every dishes are unique and tasty. I give five star for food plus service.
I had been to this place...n we had ordered Banana flower with chicken and banana leaf with chicken.... Believe me these two items were so mouth watering ...highly recommended....never had such items b4
Amazing food! Excellent presentation. Polite service. The food is a veritable explosion of authentic Assamese taste in your mouth. Highly recommend!
Love the Assamese thali served in the bell metal plate-kaah'or kaahi. Authentic Axomiya ekhaj. The appatizer coriander soup is so delicious and the paayokh in the end objectifies the statement we know ,all is well that ends well. I have tried the chicken pork and fish khorika and all are fabulous. A good meal can cost your pockets out there but once in a while it's worth it.
Ah! My favourite place. One of the best place to have Assamese ethnic food in Guwahati (probably in Assam š, I am not sure). A must visit place if you want to taste mouthwatering Assamese delicacy.
My favourite combination: Joha chaul r bhat ( Joha rice), Mati dail ( black lentil) and hahor manokho r fry (duck fry).
Very good restaurant. Food is excellent. We tried chicken fry and it was best. Aloo bhaji was very good and unique. Rice and Dal quantity was very good. 1 rice served 2 and my 5 year kid also had in it. Aloo pitika was very average. Enjoyed the meal to the fullest
A decent place to have your food with your family,friends etc.etc.The place is very spacious,the staff is good.Nice,cool and calm environment inside the restaurant.The food they serve is really very good.The price of the food items are little bit expensive if you compare it with restaurants like Khorikaa or Mising Kitchen.
Overall a very good experience in Gam's Delicacy.
First encounter with Assamese or NE food , and luckily i choose better place.
Place is nice,warmth,clean with comfortable seating. this place is jam for non vegetarian who can try anything pigon/duck/pork.
Service is fast and they do serve veg clear soup complimentry.Portion size is gud for two people.
They do serve variety of Thalis like veg thali/chicken/fish thali.
A la carte is bit on higher side, better to go for Thali.
I choose to go for A la carte ordered chicken curry with bamboo shoot, Mutton curry with aloo and joha rice (plain Rice).Food taste is gud. their accompaniments is also yum.
Suggestion- Try Thali then go for A la carte.
Excellent introduction to Assamese cuisine.... unique to the local preparation.... go for veg thali accompanied with non veg dish... had pigeon pepper curry , chicken in banana flower curry , and Ari fish..... Amazing. Big hygienic setting and absolutely helpful staff.... bon apetite.... Shillong beckons...
A Great Place to have Good Home Like Assamese Thali in Guwahati. Simple but Good ambience amd Good Food. Had the Chicken Thali which has multiple starters and main course of Chicken, each with unique flavors & taste. However, Slow and unresponsive Service is a let down.
Service: 3.5/5
Food: 4.5/5
Ambience: 4/5
In my opinion Best place to have Assamese Thali in Guwahati.
As a true blue Axomiya, an Assamese thali never fails to excite and entice me!
All the portions were generous and we couldn't complain about one single dish! And in the end, if we get betel nuts and betel leaf's just enormous!
Great service! Keep it up! šā
It's home away from homeā„ļø
The veg thali instantly takes you to one's home. I meant an Assamese home. Because that's what is Ghar ka khana in a restaurant. Simply loveeeeeeee their veg thali for Rs. 190. The other fish, pork, chicken thalis are quite overpriced I feel but their taste and ambience makes up to it. Do try out the other dishes especially try their chicken with banana flower. Its so yumm. Typically axomiyaā„ļøā„ļø their khorika porks and chicken is to die for. And that duck and pigeon. Mamma Mia! I am not a fish fan so no idea about their fish items but undoubtedly that will be good too.
Service is fast. Hospitality is ambient and warm. Seat capacity is large so no problem of waiting out.
A MUST GO for typical AXOMIYA AHAR.
Situated in Ganeshguri this place is famous for its ethnic cuisines. The place seems to be really a sought-after place particularly during the lunch time. We had the chicken thali; a bit pricey but then it's worth every penny. Although not an ethnic food lover but maybe because of the different varieties of chicken they served, I managed to complete my whole thališ¤£
P.S. I would definitely recommend it to others as well...š
If one looking for authentic Assamese food, this is the place. They have a very large restaurant next to highway, it's a must visit. Food quality/taste bets the best.
My second take on the Assamese thali and as expected did not disappoint. Ordered the fish thali at Gamās Delicacy. Wish I hadnāt forgotten to taken a pic of the menu, so I remembered what I actually ate :(.
The fish gravy dishes from the thali were really good. Couldnāt really manage to eat the fish preparation (pictured below) - probably cuz of the eyes staring at me. LOVED the Joha rice! (Assam is apparently the largest cultivator of this rice - source: Wikipedia). Overall, a satisfying food experience.
Service left a bit to be desired. Not sure if it was my inability to communicate in the local language, but would have liked the server to be more informative about the dishes and that I did not have to depend on google for giving me my answers.
One of my favorite place, whenever i feel trying assamese thali. From decor to the mouth watering dishes, well behaved staff, environment everything is fine and beautifully presentable. The non veg items whether its pork with bamboo shoot or koldil added recipes, the fish items to the maati mahor curry, i have always been a fan of this ethnic resturant.
If one wants to have authentic Assamese Thali, this is one of the places in Guwahati to be. Clear soup served before the Thali is superb. The looks of the Bamboo all around and the smell of the bamboo shoots create right setting. Thali is so reasonable costwise that one can chose to have frequent meals here if it demands; it looks pretty healthy and hygienic. It is a good place for family to do outings or for working people to take their official guests to. The curry with Ilish is must have.
One of the best places to have traditional Assamese cuisine!!Tried the duck and pigeon curry!!Truly lip smacking delicious!!The restaurant truly justifies its Name!!A must visit place in one's Guwahati itinerary.
We had vegetarian Asamese Thali here and liked the taste of the food. The service was excellent especially the waiter who served us was very courteous. Veg Thali is limited and they allowed us to share the food . The thali (Rs 175) and other food is expensive. We didnāt mind it since wanted to try local food and didnāt have much time to go away from Ganeshgudi market where this restaurant is located.
Excellent Northeast thalis. Clean and spacious. I had the chicken Thali and my wife had veg thali. Both were very tasty and wide spread. They also have fish and pork thalis that I couldn't try
If anybody visiting Guwahati wants to taste the ethnic food of Assam, delicacy resturant is a must. One can taste a variety of traditional dishes.
The ambiance and food is really tasty.. we ordered for a veg thalli and it was filling and the taste was good. The price is reasonable I felt but unfortunately my mother in law fell down from the bench as the seat was broken. I insist management to take care of there furnitures so that it doesn't repeat again with someone else. But the appreciating part is that they serve an extra plate of meal to the kid who was also a part of our lunch without any extra cost.

Food- awesome (awesome-r if somebody treats you :) ). Doesn't look like much from outside, but quite spacious from inside. Despite being immediately adjacent to a road that sees a lot of traffic, it's relatively quiet inside. Smoked pork is to die for. A must go
One of my favourite places to have some nice Assamese dishes. The thali's are very good. Very well presented. Service is anticipatory. The dƩcor is well n maintained. Quality of food is uncompromised with. The best was the payasm at the end. It was the cherry on the top.
Ordered veg thali and chicken dry fry. Thali was as expected, good.
But the chicken dry fry wasn't tasty enough.
Otherwise, ambience is awesome.
It is the best food I've ever had in last one year. Each authentic Assamese and North East mouth watering dishes I would like to taste them once again.
If you are born a Veg you'll regret because there's something called Chicken Pato Diya which you'll terribly miss!!
If you want to taste pure Assamese cuisine then go for it . Their thali is good. Chicken tastes awesome. Staff is friendly too. Ambience is nice. But no parking space available.
Been to this place on many occasions. They serve nice Assamese thali, with traditional Assamese preparation. Since I am pork lover , I had tried Pork Fry and it was amazing...... Apart from pork they also have various local fish, duck and chicken preparation. Must visit.....
If you are looking for a complete Assamese wholesome meal, you should definitely visit this place.
Avoid going on weekends cause you definitely need to wait for long to get a seat.
I tried the thaalis- Chicken and pork. And trust me, there won't be any space left in you stomach. The food is worth the money you pay.
I ordered an extra item- "Patot Dia Maas" and to be honest it was not upto my Expectations. It tasted bitter š
Overall, thumbs-up š to the place. The staffs are good and well-behaved. You don't need to wait much for your order. And you actually get the true taste of Assamese Delicacy š
Lovely chicken and pork Assamese thalis. Khar is awesome as is the payasam. Friendly waiters. Fish curry was light as was the steamed pork and chicken.
Great food, great hygiene, ambience is awesome. All mothers menus are served . Internet , wi-fi are free. The Non veg Thalia are excellent . staff are very helpful. Thanku you for ethnic food.
Good food and good taste assames food very good pork chicken and duck very good taste. Services good restaurant cleaning almost good free Wi-Fi
This restaurant has one of the best ambiances in Guwahati, with amazing Assamese Food and impeccable service at reasonable prices! One of the best places to have a homely feast with friends and family.
Went there a yr back though but still craving for the delicacies...... Pura ghar ka khana! Alu pitika'r pora, chutney, pigeon fry, pork dry fry bla...bla
For the first time I m feeling short of words. The restaurant itself is a heaven for food lovers. Everything is perfect about this restaurant, the food, the ambience, the service. We ordered boiled pork with veggies, pork dry fry, pork with potato, small fish khorika and chicken in bamboo shoot. We were amazed after tasting the boiled pork. Nobody could believe that boiled pork can be so awesome. The pieces were of bite size and filled with juices. The meat almost melted in our mouth. The other dishes were also great. And the best part is we did not feel overfull after eating so much. Left the place with a feeling of total satisfaction with the hope of visiting it soon.
Will rate it as follows -
Food 4/5
Ambiance 5/5
Service 4/5
Price 3/5
PS - Food are a bit overpriced
went there with my family during durga puja..we ordered assamese thali along with one mutton curry and one local chicken curry which was average in taste. another dishes was average. price was a little high..they also gave 'payokh' along with the assamese thali which was tasty š
We were looking for an authentic North Eastern/Assamese cuisine place and Gam's Delicacy popped up in our list and we weren't disappointed.
The decor is very nice, especially in the evenings. The staff is courteous, though service times are slightly on the longer side. Being vegetarian on the day, I ordered the 'Sumptuous Veg. Meal' which was wonderful. It had soo many items, including two varieties of dal, green herbs, fried vegetables, khar, pitika and kheer, all cooked the traditional Assamese way, one better than the other. In the end, it was difficult to finish, but I managed somehow and was stuffed.Ā The restaurant is a non-vegetarian delight, with great fish and pork. Go there for authentic Assamese-style fish and pork. Servings are generous and you will not return disappointed.
Excellent place for north eastern cuisine...had Assamese cuisine here a couple of times, although they also serve cuisine from other ne states ...stumbled upon it on zomato.
Ambience is excellent for a quute meal. Decor is pretty ethnic. Service is pretty good and fast...waiters know abt their food and can make good suggestions. I especially liked the way they serve their food in brass utensils.
Coming to good... Not much variety for vegetarians here...just a veg thali and some other dishes on order.
For non vegetarians uts a paradise. Had duck, fish, mutton and chicken here on different occasions here...all made to.perfection...a must visit if u r in guwahati
Though I am not much into ethnic Assamese cuisine ( reason being I am an Assamese and mostly I resort to homemade items). Me along with my colleagues happen to visit this restaurant for lunch and I was damn impressed by almost everything they had to offer. This place is one of the oldest joint in its locality and their food is really awesome. Ā A pretty neat and tidy place, this joint offers Nagamese and Manipuri dishes too. They have their see-through BBQ oven where you can actually see them preparing your mouth watering smoked items. Their Thalis are generous and I am sure a second serving virtually becomes difficult. We ordered veg thalis , chicken with sesame seeds and Chitol in mustard paste. I had a very satisfying lunch that day. Service is really good and the staffs are more than happy to guide you through. Next visit I am taking my parents there, m sure they will love the food. Price wise they are OK i guess.
Assamese food. Tasty. 'I found it ok-ok'. Pork and fish are the must trys. Yeah, chalta hai you know.
*one of my worst ways of writing review ever* .
Period.
No trip to Assam should be complete without this. Here you can eat till you're fed up with food. Had the veg thali with chicken cooked with with banana flower. Loved the traditional presence of food and the dƩcor. Do yourself a favor and eat here
This is your ideal place of Assamese cuisine and to eat food till your neck. We were two people and we ordered for two veg thalis, a chicken curry and a fish tenga. And thank god, we didn't order any more. The taste was pure oxomiya and that fish piece was so big, even two of us had a tough time finishing it. The chicken koldil was delightful, and I liked the little bowls of everything, the payokh needs a special mention. The service is very prompt and the ambiance is quite nice.

A good place for authentic non veg dishes. The veg fried rice is not very yummy. However, pork chilli and pork in bamboo shoot is good and delicious. Besides, the ambience is okkish alongside the price of the items on the menu. For two people, a sumptuous meal will cost around 700-800 bucks.
Nice Assamese thalis out here, also the ambience is good. One can try various types of Chicken Mutton duck also various types of fishes. The utensils they use are also traditional Assamese style.. If you want to try Assamese thali this is the best place.. The smoked meat is also famous in guwahati.. It's tasty out here.. Must try..
Nice traditional assamese food you can also try the duck chicken pegion pork meat here and all are authentic assamese also you get naga dish curies must try
I always wanted to have a proper authentic assamese food. So this time during puja i along with my family went there. The place has a nice old school charm around it and the decor is kept as traditional as it could be. The staff is very polite. We ordered thali which consist of joha rice, aloo pitika, khaar, dal, black dal, veg fry and a veg curry. As an add on we took chicken curry with palong which was suggested by the guy who took the order. The food was awesome.
A great place to taste the Assamese good. The presentation was good, the staff was well behaved. A place to be remembered for Assamese cuisine. I had a wonderful time being there.
Love to eat traditional dishes go for it they serve you the best food and ya different dishes were served.. long list of menu i njoy the tasty food

Gam's Delicacy Restaurant located at Ganeshguri is an amazing place for typical taste of Assam. Assamese food tastes real best and it's a blend of various ways, techniques, ideas, flavours ofcourse and the overall presentation with traditonal factors.
Delicacy has made it possible in all ways.
Serving you great Assamese delights this place is a must visit.
Ambience is perfect and it's really a fabulous place for family and friends. Parties and get togethers would also rock for this place if you want Assamese food. Staff is quite good with skilled factors. Service is fast and presentable. Behaviour is impressive .
Place is super clean and hygenic.
Range: It's a pocket friendly place with fantastic taste. It serves you best not making a hole in your pocket .
What to order ? If you are in Gam's delicacy the best one to opt for is the thali consisting of joha rice, yellow dal, black dal, khar, vegetables and herbs, vegetables fry , Alu pitika and lastly the yummy kheer(paayoh)
.. Now for non veg one should surely try for the best indeed pigeon with black pepper, chicken with til(sesame seeds) , fried duckš , mash pura and the pork bamboo shoot...
Overall a big što this tremendous place... !
there it is... one of the premier assamese restaurants of guwahati. nice environment. well done interiors. true taste of authentic assamese cuisine with a wide plethora of choices. quick service, well mannered staff.
go for the thali with some ethnic add ons!
personal pic: horu maas pitika.
warning: parking is an issue!
Good food, good staff, serving time less than 5 minutes. Value for money. Though it it not visible among the crowds but you will feel at home being there. Coming to the main part food is good but I will not call it the best. Being there will never unhappy and will not make you purse lose.
One word..awesome!! Thali is very good..non spicy..authentic.We took magur fish curry (alu n tomato) and pigeon dry fry in addition.All tasted yummy.Seating area is very spacious and homely.The place is always jostling with people.Go grab your bite today!!!
One of the best place for authetic Assamese cusine and one of my fav joints in Ghy. The ambience is very cosy and comfortable. The staff also very customer friendly. What is amazing the sheer variety in the menu and you relise the richness of Assamese food. Just love the food cooked with bamboo shoots.
I had chicken with sesame seeds and chicken with bamboo shoot last time I visited along with non vegetarian thali. It was great. Simple with a variety of Assamese cuisine. If you have a thing for Assamese thali then this is definitely a must visit
![Zomato]( "Recensione")
The best of all authentic assamese restaurants serving traditional assamese cusine..yes undoubtedly delicacy seems to be the best..and any visit to guwahati is incomplete if you dont enjoy a traditional assamese meal serving indegenious mix of authentic and traditional recipes..as poulty and river water fish are staple food by the assamese culinary dictionary,so primarily you will be exposed to a whole array of meat and poulty dishes apart from varied types of river water fishes..rohu(rou maas) ,katla, ilish ,aari maas apart from chicken ,pork, mutton, pegion and duck meat ruling the menu..of course there is an avalance of restaurants now a days offering assamese cusine but by far delicacy seems to be the most authentitally rooted one, onviously with the developement of the state economy as more and more non assamese people are visiting north east and primarily guwahati either for work business or pleasure it makes sense for the proliferation of these restaurants..hence this review is actually intented to a non assamese person who is probably unaware about assamese cusine...
In terms of ambience it is beautifull decored in simplicity signifying the simplicity of assamese lifestly and culture..without any ostentious show of glamour you are welcomed to a big standing xorai and japis that are adorned with the traditional gamusas(assamese handwoven stole)..the seating is rather simple and service quick..now on the food, it has a wide varied menu divided into different poultry dishes..either chicken or duck or mutton or pork, each variety at least has 10 dishes to their name, my fav being the pegion and duck recipes..for eg pegion meat with black pepper(jaluk diya paro mangsho), pegion with banana flower, duck with black gram dal, duck with kumura or ash gourd, chicken with papaya or black pepper or bamboo shoot..similarly fish with ou tenga, with bilahi tenga,with lauki and so on.. the meal starts with a beautiiful tangy soup that is just the beginning of a fine dining experience..all the dishes are served in traditional assamese brass(kaah baati) utentils which just reminds me of my granny's house where as kids we were served only in brass vessels..ideally one should take a veg thali and call for a specific non veg dish whatever you wish for..that serves your purpose for the quantity is humungous..the veg thali has typical dishes like aloo pitika( mashed potatoes), omitar khaar( a very specific dish of assamese culture made with raw papaya and a concotation of burnt banana leaves that gives a flvour of baking soda,not exactly though but best explained this way) and another mixed subji..authentically rooted to the culture, these may or may not suit your taste buds although for an assamese it ss the best veg food that suits the taste bud of an assamese..assamese food is a tad bland without spices hence i know there are a few who may not quite like it..but for those guys, it would perhaps be an aquired taste..if you dont like the taste, please dont blame the restaurant with a feedback saying its not nice..coz ;trust me, that is the best assamese food that you will get..it is as authentic as my mother or anybody's mother cooks at home..or maybe exactly the way i cook up an assamese meal..that is exactly how it is supposed to be..every state has its own cuisine and we may or may not like the taste however that doesnt mean their food is not appealing..so for all you guys who think otherwise,delicacy offers you the best..and for the non vegetarian guys it is a dream..with a wide variety to choose from you wouldnt know what to devour..pegion meat is a delicacy, and my favourite since childhood..whenever i am in guwahati i make sure i have my pegion in black pepper at delicacy..so is duck with black gram dal(haah aru mati maah)..so uninitiad and never tasted kind of non vegetarian diahes for the non assamese clan..in fact my suggestion would be to give the chicken a pass and try perhaps the duck or pegion receipes for a new unattempted taste .all dishes come with plain white rice and not to miss the kazi nemu(a type of lime).most importantly since assamese food is devoid of spices,cream or ghee you would'nt feel heavy even after a huge meal..you end the meal with the traditional tamul paan and sauf (betel nut and leaf) that's beautifully offered in a bota (a heightened plate kind of an utensil that is used to offer the same,).. the only suggestion that i can perhaps recommend is the inclusion of rotis in the menu which is missing..assamese people by culture are rice eaters and their food is reliahed only with rice or rather the taste of any item is enhanced only through rice and dal..but then today with impending health hazzards leading to the non inclusion of carbs in your diet, a lot of us prefer rotis and so is the case with non assamese people who might prefer rotis to tice. So maybe phulkas as a part of the menu might offer increased pleasure to non rice eaters..otherwise , a perfect place to experience an assamese thali. Definetely worth trying out.
It's the place where you go when you think the food cooked at your place is not authenticly assamese and our moms are too tired too cook it( except it's your birthday or someone else's in your family). The whole place have got a good assamese vibe.

Ah! Delicacy. It serves up to its name.
There are a number of authentic Assamese cuisine restaurants in the city. The number is still increasing, but Gam's Delicacy Restaurant wins my heart. The moment you enter the premises of the place, the feel that 'Idhar toh authentic khaana milega ch milega' loads in your mind.Ā
The attendants are dressed in Muga shirts which make them look more like the managerial crew of the place. The food and the drinks are served in traditional Assamese brass utensils and that itself quenches your long lasting desire of having 'ekhaaj'.
We ordered a VEG THALI that comprises of the following-
1. Joha Rice - A variety of rice grown in India, notable for its aroma, delicate and excellent taste. Assam is the largest cultivator of this rice.
2. Assamese Dal - Usually cooked with yellow Masoor & Arhar Dal, this dal is low on carbs and high on taste.
3. Mati Dal - This dal is cooked with split black gram and a little Khar (the traditional Assamese dish made with extracts of roasted banana peel)
4. Aloo Bhindi Dry Fry - Cooked only with cumin powder as an additive besides salt and turmeric, this dry fry goes hand in hand with the dal.
5. Green Herbs Fry- This featured green leafy vegetables fried with onion and green chillies which tasted like heaven.
6. Pitika - This Assamese version of mashed potato is an amusement and a necessity in the assamese thali.
7. Khar- No Assamese thali gets complete without Khar accompanying it.Ā
8. Kheer- Well, it is kheer. Everyone loves kheer, especially when it has my favorite cashew and raisins in it with a bay leaf taste to it.
We also ordered CHICKEN w BANANA FLOWER as our non vegetarian alter ego did not let us free. This one dish made me fall in love with the place all over again. This recipe usually found in the kitchens of our grandmothers from the remote villages is a rarity to find.
Overall-
Food- 4.5/5

Delicacy, keep up. We shall keep coming.
Traditional Aasami food can be enjoyed here.Service is slow. Very costly as compared to other good options. Mostly crowded place.
Gam's has one of the best authentic Assamese thalis around. Had a pork thali with a sweet lassi. The food was excellent. The lassi was a bit more aerated than what I'm used to drinking, but otherwise good.
There's enough parking available for both 2-wheelers and 4-wheelers. The location is great, and the service road is good. Highly recommended.
The place serves great local assamese thali. They serve good food with so much love. Food is served on a bronze plate and bowls which is considered a tradition in our culture. Staff behaviour is very good. The thalis served are unlimited and can be refilled on the table on request, rather the staff keeps coming to table to enquire your needs. Overall a good experience with tasty food. I tried fish which eas great and I am sure other non veg thalis would be equally good.
10/10 authentic Assamese food. Worth all the money. From the complimentary soup served before the meal to the kheer served as a desert at the end, everything was top notch.
Was in Guwahati for a day and was advised to have atleast one meal at Gam's Delicacy, luckily the restaurant was just 5 km away from my hotel so visited for dinner. The restaurant on GS Road is easy to locate, the interiors are simple and welcoming and the staff was very courteous. I had the Chicken Delicacy Thali and it was amazing, especially the Chicken curry and the patit diya chicken. The yellow dal, black dal and other veg dishes served were mild and full of flavour. I would love to visit this place again.
We are so fortunate to have this place just a few minutes drive away from home. I went there three or four times. The food is stunning. It's an authentic assamese restaurant. You find the varieties of assamese food items in their menu. I ordered a veg thali and smoked chicken. Veg thali was perfect but the smoked chicken was not so good in taste. They served ginger soup before the meal and different kinds of pickles and chutney were also given along with the meal. They have good seating arrangements, truly a family restaurant. Overall it was a good experience of mine.
ā¢Probably my 5th time visiting this restaurant, Gam's delicacy is a family dining restaurant that mainly serves assamese cuisine.
ā¢Before the meal, they serve soup for increasing the appetite.
ā¢Ordered the veg thali, dal fry and mutton curry.
ā¢The thali and the dal was average.
ā¢The mutton was well cooked and full of spices. The option for potato was also available which is i think great.
ā¢The prices are moderate :
Veg thali Rs. 200
Dal Rs. 110
Mutton Rs. 430
You can find pure Assamese Thali here. One of the top rated restaurant specially for thali. 4pm to 7 pm, they are not served Thali. Taste is moderate. They are provided clear soup as complimentary starter. If you go for taste then you should order ala carte. Ambience is good. Complete family restaurant. The staff behaviour is very polite and descent. Specially, Jitendra from Gams Krishna market Ganeshguri was very nice guy.

Decent place to try authentic Assamese food, try the pork platter to taste 4 different pork flavours.
Situated below Ganeshguri fly over and parking was the only problem.
Youāre going to need a nap after the Assamese thali here. Great food and presentation. Parking is a huge pain so itās best to be take Uber or public transit to this neighborhood.
Good food at affordable prices along with well behaved staff.
Was skeptic at first but when the items started to flow in was really š. Didn't have a good ethnic dish for a long time and was really hard to get one. Happy that me and my wife got to experience this and definitely would come again for this delicious meal š. Happy meals.
If you visit Guwahati then you have to visit this restaurant. One of the finest restaurant of Guwahati. You can take lunch or dinner which you want. The service is awesome. Lots of yummy foods you can order. The menu is full of delicious food items with different kinds of dishes of pork, pigeon and duck. By the way you can take veg thali too. If you take any veg item you can feel the taste of home. And you will get some food items in the bowl which i made by Kaanh. When you order you food the waiter will.serve you a full bowl of homemade veg garlic soup. It is so tasty. In the rainy season or winter season its very helpful to get sweat. Lol. Card payment facility is also available here.
It was my second visit to this place. If you're looking to have a sumptuous assamese meal, this is the place to go. The service is top notch and taste is yummy. Don't miss the pork kharika here :P Definitely recommended. You'll love it here.
