Dilli Dilli arrives in Times Square inviting diners on a flavorful journey through Delhi’s rich culinary traditions. Helmed by Chefs Gaurav Anand and Vipul Gupta, the restaurant showcases the duality of India’s capital, blending the timeless flavors of Old Delhi with the innovative edge of New Delhi.
Chef Anand, known for New York establishments such as Bhatti Indian Grill and Moti Mahal Delux, brings a contemporary flair to the menu, while Chef Gupta, with his roots in iconic kitchens like Bukhara and Dum Pukht, offers dishes steeped in heritage.
The menu is a vibrant mix of street food-inspired snacks and hearty classics. Start with Fateh Ki Kachori, crispy cumin kachoris paired with yellow peas and a splash of lime, or the Natraj Bhalla, a lentil dumpling dressed in sweet yogurt and black masala. Mains bring Pandara Road Butter Chicken, featuring tender tandoori chicken in a makhani sauce, and the earthy Saagwala Paneer, made with fresh spinach and house-made paneer. Tandoor offerings include smoky Koyla Chicken and the spiced Seekh Mirza Ghalib, a lamb shoulder kebab with pomegranate chutney.
The drinks program, led by Beverage Director Jeremy Le Blanche, is equally inspired. Drawing on the essence of India’s spice markets, cocktails are infused with the flavors of turmeric, cardamom, and saffron. Look for drinks like India Gate Voyage with Kombucha, saffron infused vodka, amaretto and demerara sugar; Golden Hour with Green cardamom infused tequila, turmeric, cordial and Aperol; and Old India with Bourbon whiskey, tonka cordial and aromatic bitter.
The bi-level space, designed by Abla Atoubi and Design House Décor, captures the bustling energy of Delhi with vivid colors, velvet accents, and brass details. Upstairs, a private dining room adorned with custom Indian art provides an intimate setting for special occasions.
With its vibrant menu, inventive cocktails, and stunning design, Dilli Dilli offers a taste of Delhi’s culinary soul, reimagined for New York City.
