Haveli, in the Indian Sub-continent is recognized as the ultimate in living luxury. In
Ottawa, we have attempted to recreate the ambiance, atmosphere and the flavors
that make a visit to the Havelis in India so memorable. We hope your visit to
our Haveli will give you a glimpse of India and its rich cultures.
Contrary to popular belief, Indian food is not and does not have to be spiced
overly hot to be enjoyed. In fact, the art in Indian cookery lies in the delicacy
of the spicing. In order to be able to satisfy all our patrons, we offer different
levels of spicing for almost all of the items on this menu.

Our knowledgeable and friendly staff will be pleased to familiarize you with
the various levels of spicing and also assist you in the selection of your dinner
menu. Please do not hesitate to consult your server. With our courteous and attentive
service we will endeavor to make your food experience at Haveli a memorable one
and hope that it will leave you with a desire to come back, again and again.
Here is a suggestion we think will enhance your food experience at Haveli and
make it more adventurous and hopefully more enjoyable too.
There is no way around it, Indian food tastes best when eaten with your fingers!
There is a tactile dimension added to the eating process. Besides, Indian food
is designed to be eaten by hand. Breads are to be torn and wrapped around foods.
Rice (not necessary to eat with fingers) is customarily blended with curries so
each mouthful is unique. If you eat off of a banana leaf (which by the way is
still possible in many places in India) trying to use a knife and fork would shred
your plate. Eating with your fingers is a cultural experience everyone should
experience while visiting an Indian restaurant. We will be pleased to provide
finger bowls and or wet naps in order cleanup after your meal. And just like eating
with chopsticks in a Chinese restaurant, feel free to switch back to utensils
if you are not enjoying the experience.
In any event, rest assured that your satisfaction is of the utmost importance
to the ownership and staff at Haveli.
