It’s a good place to have food at, as the name is the place is good enough to have Kashmiri food. The aura of the place is really good, and the staff are very well versed. The only setback they have is that they take little time to serve the food, but still if going with family then it doesn’t matter that much till the time one is having a good conversation. :)

The food is great! Being a Kashmiri, I travel from Gurgaon to eat here because I think they serve the most authentic Kashmiri food in Delhi NCR!

Good old Kashmiri club. Kashmiri food could be disappointing for few Delhi-ites as they serve authentic Kashmiri wazwaan, which is a bit bland to the taste. Few dishes are executed well here and others are a big no no. For example, don't go for their rista our goustaba. tabac Maas and rogan josh is good. So id their mutton seekh. 
This is not a restaurant but a relaxed club full of old age members. So, you have to be patient with their service like a gentleman. Looking at their prices for liquor and food you have to give them a 4 star rating. Go there and you won't be disappointed with the regular North Indian food. A good place to start the evening. 
Ambience: 3/5
taste: 4/5
service: 2/5
location: 5/5
food quality: 5/5

Diwali party was hosted at this place and I tried their food. Food was very good and fresh. Specially Dal makhni, Veg biryani, corn palak and creme salad. One can give a try.

This is the go to place for good cheap booze and nice starters! They even put those classical songs and ghazals to get the mood going 😂
The service can be improved a bit. Wouldn't recommend as a family dinner place though.

Samavar was always in the my list for ordering Kashmiri food and I tried it on the 04 th of Nov 2018. I ordered Mutton Gushtaba (Pounded mutton balls in curd based white gravy), Mutton Rista (Pounded mutton balls in red saffron based gravy) and Dal-a-samvar chefs special dal and it all was fabulous. There gravies were not onion and tomato based and were very close to authentic Kashmiri taste, Dal was outstanding and thick according to my liking. They have special and distinctive spices and flavours which makes them unique. I really enjoyed my meal along with my friends. Worth trying.

Do follow me for more such reviews and do like if you find my review informative and useful.

extremely pocket friendly kashmiri and north Indian food with a bar that doesn't puncture your pockets badly.

Kashmiri Thaali is definitely the thing to try. can probably improve the interior and lighting coz their location is beyond amazing

This place is a (hidden?) gem! The paneer tikka, the chicken tikka, the dal, the paneer, the tandoori rotis - all were really flavoursome! The service was prompt and the interiors are also quite cozy. Reasonably priced place as well!

I visited this place on a relatively quiet day and therefore the service was rather quick.

I had the achari chicken tikka and haryali paneer tikka. Both were soft and tasted good. The Dal was ordinary and the breads were okayish too. Nice overall experience.

I am writing this review after visiting the place almost a dozen times and I am always amazed by the quality of food they serve . In short this is one of the best places in Delhi NCR to have authentic Kashmiri quisine be it veg or non veg . Highly recommended for people who love to taste different quisines and for die hard lovers of Kashmiri food. Just go for it. !!!!!!

To be honest I'm giving 4 star only because of the food......
So i've visited Samavar today which is located at Greater Kailash Part 1 of Delhi..
It's a restaurant cum bar....About the service it was very slow....May be they have limited space in Kitchen ans that forced me to click the 4 star button...

They are specialized only in Kashmiri Food so ordering other food, wont do a justice...

I have Tried 'n' Tasted

Kabargah which is a Kashmiri Cuisine. These are lambs ribs which are deep fried...If you are not too health cautious then this is the dish you should look out for...

Then followed by a main course and we ordered
Rista which are meatballs in a fiery red gravy and had Dry Fruits Kashmiri Pulao...

Overall we enjoyed the food journey except the slow service part....

Even the ambience is good with comfortable chairs......

Ambience- 3.5/5
The decoration is nice with appropriate amount of seating.

Service- 4/5
The service staff is well groomed and polite. They are always ready to help the guest and are very interactive. They have quick service. Just one thing that disappointed me was that the restaurant is a little under staffed and the service staff gets really hassled in case all the tables are occupied.

Food- 4.5/5
We had ordered fish finger, amritsari fish Tikka, ajvaaini paneer Tikka, peanut masala and mutton seekh kebab for appetizers. All the preparations were very good. The fish finger was especially good and had me going for seconds. For the soup course we ordered Cream of Mushroom soup. It was okay but not something exceptional. It had a lot of pepper according to my taste. Next we ordered Bhuna Ghost, Paneer Tikka Masala, Dal Tadka for main course and we had tandoori roti to accompany them. We were really impressed with everything.
All in all it was a good experience and I would definitely recommend this place and would love to re-visit Samavar.

If you enjoy meat, don’t miss this place. The Kashmiri Kabargah (Fried Lamb Ribs) made with a lot of love and the right amount of tenderness is the one to attack. Accessible place with ample parking. They serve liquor at reasonable rates.

have been a frequent visitor to this place. HAs ample parking space inspite being in one of the post areas where parking is a big hassle.

Best thing is thing is ur can hangout with your friends, have few drinks, handout, chant & it's light on the pocket.

Service is decent with nice ambiance. Food too is good but not exceptional. Have tried dal makhni, rogan josh, rista, chilly chicken, mutton seek etc.

They have a nice place to sit outside too & have chit chat with a cuppa of kahwa.

Good place for friends to catch up.

Ordered a tandoori chicken dish for delivery at Pamposh enclave through Zomato. The order was slightly late - took more than an hour. The dish was good enough, for approx. Rs. 200. Would order again, but keep the time margin in mind.

Food Ordered: Main Course: Gushtaba, Chicken Rista, Chicken Biryani, Mutton RoganJosh

The food was way better than expected. It was a hot summer day and the ac wasnt working properly but the food did compensate for all the inconvenience.
I would suggest kabargah (also known as tabakh maas) for all the meat lovers, it's a mutton snack and tasted better than pork ribs. For vegetarians haak is suggested ,the taste was really different and addictive we couldn't stop ourselves. Yakhini was the Best yakhini ever like it was straight from kashmir.
The portions were more than enough we were three and ordered all these with rice the bill was around 1200/- .
Samavar is the best place for kashmiri food👍

A normal Tuesday night dinner, as we came from chennai.... Wanted to try a nice kashmiri place.
This came highly recommended, brilliant food... We ordered the Amritsari fish, lotus fry, and mutton roshgosh with roti, With some beer.

We got complimentary pappads, the waiter Mr Tansingh Koringa, was brilliant very courteous very kind. Our mutton gravy was very salty so we had to return it. And Mr Tansingh was very kind to get a replacement which tasted yum.

Food gets a 4.5 (just because we had to return it)
Ambience a 5
Service a 5 (thanks to Mr Tansingh)
Brilliant experience.

I am not sure why the ratings for Samavar are so low. This is probably one of the best Kashmiri restaurants in town. The friends I went had recently been to Srinagar and they were amazed by the authenticity of the cooking. As a bonus the liquor is cheap so it makes for a great cold winter dinner destination. The gushtaba and rogan josh are not to be missed.

Tucked away in the middle of Pamposh Enclave, near Nehru Place and GK1, is Samavar. It was recommended by a friend and I must say it was a great discovery for me, since I enjoy Kashmiri food! We started out with Chicken Kanti, which was rather nice. The main course consisted of Rogan Josh, Goshtaba, Kashmiri Dry Fruit Pulao & Rotis and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves! I also had some Old Monk with Thums Up and it was quite cheap! Overall great value for money and we will definitely go back there again!

Samavar is tucked in the quiet corner of Greater kailash, in a Kashmiri community centre, and you will easily lose it, if you don't pay attention, to every place that serves food like i do â˜ș.
The restaurant it would seem is lost in time, with dim lights and an old decor, it has posters of Olden days Kashmir and had on Display Kashmiri rugs, cushion covers and carpets, which are also on sale. The crowd is generally families, and the restaurant serves liquor and food.
The liquor is not expensive,like most restaurants and the food is decently priced too.
What we ordered: murgh malai tikka (i know its not kashmiri) but the waiter failed to recommend any traditional starters, actually the staff was not surprisingly , extremely clumsy at its job.
Next we ordered from Kashmiri section of rice , the dry fruit pulao, which was laden with Cashew and almonds and the aroma of spices ( Garam masala and all) and the mutton rogan josh which was also good. The food is typically home made Kashmiri food and you should visit this place, only if you look forward to eating it,like i did, since my trip to kashmir :)
Its a nice place, and is every bit a value for money !

Nestled on the corner of Pamposh enclave in GK1 is Samavar. It's a club cum restaurant cum bar cum lawn for the kashmiris living in this colony though anyone can visit the restaurant.

The ambience if the restaurant more like a gazal and alcohol place. Booze here is quite cheap and that's a huge bonus.

Food: -
Soup: we ordered a Hot and Sour veg soup, but the soup was really hot and spicy so we had to send it back. Instead we placed an order for veg sweet corn soup and this time it was ok.

Starters: We ordered murg malai tikka for starters and the taste was very good. The chicken was nice and tender and delicately spiced.

Maincourse: We ordered Dal Tadka, Dal Makhani, Haak, mutton rista, mutton roganjosh, plain rice and kashmiri chicken pulao and assorted rotis and parathas. The maincourse was amazing. Dal Tadka and Dal makhani were really well made and spiced, mutton rista I felt was a bit of a let down as I felt hardly any meaty flavor in the mutton balls, mutton roganjosh was simply awesome as it wasn't very thick and had delicate spiced with a thin red gravy, perfect to be had with rice which I did. Kashmiri chicken pulao was also very nice and hearty.

This place has become a real fix for my non-veg and alcohol craving and iam surely bound to return more often then not. Though I feel the service can be lifted a bit.

Love Kashmiri food, and I thank my Kashmiri friend for bringing me here. â˜ș

We had the rista, the Kashmiri mutton chops, haak and rice -- was a very happy evening. The prices are extremely reasonable and I urge fellas to get out as a bunch and gorge just like my friend and I did.

I love the old world feel to this place. It's very humble. Kashmiri uncles and families chilling here. It's pretty cool. 🍀â˜ș

Hit the follow button for good luck and good food !!

I lack the general know how of kashmiri food. Although kashmiri aloo dum aloo has been a staple food in my order since years. I researched on it a little. Saw a documentary too once. Samavar was my first experience at kashmiri cuisine ! To be honest - I LOVED IT !!

 

Ambiance - Well the place is mainly for weddings. So the ambiance is a little sad and slow. Dinner with families or a formal meeting are totally apt for this place.

Food - Marvelous is the word ! Very very amazing food ! Softest and super tasty - Dum Aloo !! The Lal Paneer threw me in front of a bus and made me kill myself because it was so so so yum ! The flavours were out right amazing ! Too much oil but that worked with the dishes ! Usage of a lot of dry fruits in their food. The spice level according to me was just right. My mum who finds spice the devils friends - found the food too spicy. So in short it can be a little on the spicier side. Kashmiri Pulao was amazing ! Basamati rice with great color. BOOM FOOD !!

Service - Slow and confused but very well know how of their menu.

In the end - must visit ! Must explore ! Must review !!

Also for the sharabis in the house - CHEAP ALCOHOL !

We came to know about the place from one of our Kashmiri friend. We ordered mutton Rogan josh and mutton goshtava for lunch and along with that pudina parantha and lacha paranthas. The food was sumptuous and with such a rich and thick gravy. We had to order one more mutton Rogan josh simply because it was yummy!!! Staff was also very courteous and the service was fast as well!!

The Ambience is great, it's hidden in Pamposh, they have a banquet hall attached with the restaurant. They cater to The Rashtrapati Bhavan. Service was a little slow. Though the food was amazing. Had ordered a Biryani, one portion is good enough for a meal for two. Adequately priced and should be tried. The place is a little, more of a traditional Fine Dine.

People who wants to taste Kashmiri dishes in GK / Nehuru Place, one of the finest place is Samavar ! Spacious and reasonable place to chill out.

The location is good near Chirag delhi metro station. The metro station is just 2km from this location. The location is quite good for business people not recommended for family people. Because the quality of the starter was not good. For drinks it's a good place to sit with friends. They have a lawn too where you can do the party and all.
