New Delhi Restaurants and New Delhi Dining
(New Delhi, Delhi, India, IN)



India is famous around the world for its spicy and fragrant food, and New Delhi is home to some of the country's best restaurants. When dining out in New Delhi, you can expect to find many outstanding home-grown restaurants and eateries, together with all of the usual fast-food favourites.

Worth noting, most restaurants in New Delhi automatically add a service charge to the bill, which is normally around ten percent, along with rather hefty drinks taxes. However, you won't find it difficult to find reasonably priced restaurants and dining venues in the city, while for those in a hurry, plenty of cheap eats can be found on the many street stalls, where deep-fried 'chaat' is readily available (pastry shells filled with potatoes, lentils and other ingredients, topped with yoghurt or chutney). Close to Connaught Place, New Delhi's Bengali Market is amongst the best places to find freshly cooked chaat, along with both the Khan Market and the Pandara Market.
