The Good Stuff
Tandoori Momos
Chicken tandoori momos are a standout for one regular, who orders them four or five times a month.
Dahi Bhalla
Dahi bhalla is one of the more consistently celebrated dishes, with reviewers describing it as especially good and well prepared.
Parathas
Murthal-style parathas are praised for generous, flavourful fillings and careful packing.
Delivery Packing
Several customers say food travels well; one reported that the butter naan stayed soft and arrived neatly packed.
Festive Snacks
The Diwali order of kachori subzi and paneer bread pakode was singled out for its crispy, nostalgic street-food character.
Tips for a Better Visit
Order Online. Use delivery or pickup rather than travelling there expecting a conventional dining room; the site can be hard to identify.
Check Stock. Confirm availability before ordering, especially if you have a specific dish in mind; one customer could not find paneer pakoda.
Mind Spice. If ordering a combo, repeat your spice preference and check the delivered dishes, since a no-spicy request was reportedly not followed.
Check Portions. Review portion expectations before paying for smaller dishes: one customer received only three mushroom sticks for khumb tikka.
Add Pickle. Ask for pickle with chole bhature if it matters to you; one reviewer specifically said it was missing from the order.

The Bottom Line
The Paharganj Kitchen Arjan is a cloud kitchen for Indian takeaway, delivery and pickup in Al Barsha South. It is worth considering when you want Delhi-style comfort food rather than a conventional restaurant meal. Chole bhature is the headline order, while chicken tandoori momos, dahi bhalla and Murthal-style parathas also receive specific praise.
The strongest reviews describe fluffy bhature with richly flavoured chole, generous paratha fillings, smoky momos and dahi bhalla that brings back memories of Delhi. Packaging is another bright spot: customers have said food travels well, and one reported that butter naan remained soft on delivery. Festive snacks such as kachori subzi and paneer bread pakode have also landed well.
Expect a takeaway setup, not a dependable dine-in experience. Reviews mention no sitting area, no exterior branding and difficulty locating the kitchen, so ordering online is easier. Quality is uneven: other customers received watery or bland curries, cold food, stale rice or dishes that did not match a requested mild spice level.
Availability can also be patchy, and pricing has felt high to some reviewers for the portions. Check the menu and stock before ordering, particularly for a specific dish.
