I recently visited The Drunk House Restaurant and Lounge in Rajouri Garden ,Delhi .This place is very popular among the Kitty ladies groups of that area and on most afternoons if you walk in there may very well be a kitty party in progress .
Ambience
Before you get any ideas about this place because of the Kitty reference , let me clarify that this place has an upbeat and modern feel to it and yet a cosy tavern like feel because of the wooden furniture and dim lighting .It has an in house DJ and a large screen for the young crowds .
Service –
I was particularly happy with the service as all the servers knew the details and descriptions about the food on the menu .They were also attentive and the food arrived in a short while of ordering .
Menu
Starters – For starters there was mutton Keema Pao( mutton mince in tawa masala served with pao ) , honey chilli potatoes (crispy potato batons tossed in sweet and spicy sauce ) and Jalapeno poppers (Cheesy croquettes of jalapeno served with Cajun Mayo ).

For main course I ordered a Stir fried Chinese greens, Plain rice ,Paneer Lababdar ,Lacha parantha ,Dal Makhan wali and Vegetable Biryani .The breads were very good and most of the dishes served were very good especially the Dal .The Stir Fried Chinese greens with rice was also quite good but i feel the flavors could have been built a bit more .
