Best Fun Restaurants in Nutley

We ordered the meatballs and truffle fries as appetizers, which were delicious but the fries were quite expensive for the small portion we received. We were informed that they were shareable plates but it seemed like more of a side order portion size to me. Then we both had the cast-iron roasted half chicken, which was wonderful and came out piping hot. Lastly, for dessert we ordered the seasonal sorbet which was lemon flavored and so tasty. Overall a pretty good meal.

My husband and I enjoyed his birthday dinner Saturday night at Dhamaal. The restaurant was buzzing with lively chatter and guests looked relaxed and happy. We were warmly greeted by the lovely hostess, Prapti, and promptly seated although we were 15 minutes late. The manager immediately set us up with sparkling water and opened the bottle of red wine we brought with us. We were waiting for our waiter to take our order, but one of the very alert owners came over to check in and took our order. He was friendly and we enjoyed our interaction with him. We told him we enjoy spicy/hot foods and he brought us the Murg (chicken) Tikka on the house, which was oh soooo succulent and spicy, just the way we like it...so very thoughtful of him. We ordered and enjoyed the succulent, perfectly cooked Boom Boom shrimp, juicy Afgani lamb chops, delicious spicy Dhaba Gosht (goat with bone) curry and naan, all of which arrived together. Next time, we'll be sure to ask request the dishes be coursed so that we can savor each individually. I understand why all were brought together, as they're all entrees. We concluded our meal with the Gulab Jamoon churros; delicious ice cream; churros could have been crispier. We were there for over 2 hours and didn't feel rushed. We are definitely looking forward to returning very soon ... and since we had an enjoyable experience, will bring friends; perhaps, for my upcoming birthday. Loved the whole experience! Thank you Dhamaal team.

Loved our dinner, food and service was excellent. My only complaint would be the music level, it was so loud and hard to have a conversation.

Had a great time. Loved the high top by the bar. Music was great and food was delicious!

We went here for dinner at 5:30, so I it may not be true of a later crowded space, but the tapas & service were outstanding at that time. We can't wait to go back when the weather is better to sit outside and enjoy the beautiful views.
