There seekhs are not too firm like the old style, neither are they too soft like kakori. Shaami kebab is fantastic as is the mutton korma and chicken Jahangiri. I have eaten at the old Delhi, Nizammudin, and Malviya ngr outlets and they are quite comparable although everyone insists that the old Delhi is the holy grail - though I... More

This was a new joint near our hotel.I did not like the taste of BURRA or the bread they served. The sweet dish was equally not good. I was very impressed to read the reviews on trip advisor. Though the service staff was very efficient & polite

I went with one of my friends after boasting that you would get the best Kebabs. But it turned out to be total fiasco. May be it was a peak time. 1 Kebabs were cold, hard as rubber. 2 poor service, had to wait for too long. I never had any problem with waiting but when i complained to the... More

Hey, I ate here!! Happy to review the restaurant, as it was one of my favorites while staying in New Delhi. Just a block away from the Blueberry Hotel, Karims is a very nice place to eat, and I was thrilled to find it open late at night after I returned from exploring Agra. The staff spoke passable English, which... More

Kareems always Good everywhere Good. Am a Kareem fan since last 30 years, and never disappointed. At occasionally, the mutton pieces were found hard and l;ess cooked, but the gravy is always SUBHAN ALLAH

My husband had been cribbing for the longest time to go to Karim's. The idea was making me sick in my tummy, and I kept wondering, what will I eat?!

Kareems is one of the best mugalai food place - speciallity in mutton seekh kawab, chicken burra , and mutton burra! They have multiple outlets but best is daryanganj outlets, be prepared for some waiting time (10-15 min) but it is worthy.
