Namaste & Welcome to The Delhi Lounge

Atithi Devo Bhava

(Sanskrit: अतिथिदेवो भव)
The guest is equivalent to God


Guests entering an Indian household are considered a symbol of divine presence. The concept of Atithi Devo Bhav embodies the values of hospitality, respect, and selflessness and emphasizes the importance of treating guests with utmost respect, kindness, and generosity.

At The Delhi Lounge, we are proud to extend the same philosophy. When we welcome our guests into our sacred space, we not only serve them with the finest cuisine, but also ensure that they revisit us often.

Delhi Is More than Just a City; It Is a Sentiment

A place in time where people gather in feast, festivity, and to feel good.
A warm place filled with memories of shared cups of tea and endless rounds of chaat.

Of neighborhood rendezvous and the goodwill of local eateries.
Of robust meals on the street and the soft intimacy of fine dining.
Of languid afternoons and sparkly nights.
Delhi is a love story best conveyed via food.

We are your storytellers on this gastronomic sojourn through Old Delhi

Break Ice, Over Warm Meals

The Delhi Lounge is an homage to the flavors of one of the oldest cities in the world. Each dish, painstakingly crafted by our skilled chefs, seamlessly bridges the gap between traditional Indian roots and innovative culinary techniques, narrating tales of emperors, poets, and the irresistible allure of Delhi’s streets. Throughout history, Delhi has responded to a plethora of names, evolving every few centuries. The culinary landscape of the city is a testament to these transformations, with food becoming a bridge for reminiscing and storytelling.

Piping hot parathas from grandma’s kitchen that always came with a side of love.

The promise of chole bhature on Sunday mornings, waking you up faster than any alarm clock.


An evening stroll with friends to find the best kebabs in the city.


A mithai you stole from your sibling.


A meal you shared with the one who stole your heart.

The dishes that lull you back to simpler times are always worth repeating. The Delhi Lounge invites you to relive these cherished moments through its diverse and rich culinary offerings, celebrating the heritage of Delhi with every bite.

There Is No Such Thing as An Overloaded Plate of Food

Go in for seconds. Get your hands messy. Leave a trail of crumbs behind. We make food that takes you back in time while also making you look forward to a future encore.
Everything fresh, made with love, for connoisseurs to discover comfort, nostalgia, and ease in every morsel.

We wish to rekindle the dwindling ritual of community dining by setting the stage for patrons to unite and eat. Using food as a conduit, or a spark, we invite our guests to lean into seasonal eating and experience the gastronomy associated with the northern part of India, the region surrounding the capital city of Delhi. The food, a dexterous collaboration between the acute minds and hands of our chefs, is crafted by layering traditions and is a direct invitation to dream about a land that is deliciously nostalgic.

Our Story

Magnifying memories through cuisine

At The Delhi Lounge, we have attempted to recreate a dynamic ambiance, where the aromas of spices and sizzling dishes will transport you to the heart of Delhi’s bustling bazaars. A space ideal for social gatherings, celebratory meals, or a sensory treat. Our menu is a cornucopia of diverse influences – a reminder that there is no “comprehensive” guide to the food of Delhi. In fact, it thrives on account of the multiplicity of tastes that exists in its DNA.

When you move to a new country, food becomes one of the key ways that you can connect with the life you had. There’s a different appreciation you have for things when they’re not readily available.
It is incredible how many of our core memories in life revolve around food. Which is why, while we fuss over our ingredients and are sticklers for finesse, what we ultimately value the most is authenticity.
Our chefs employ time-tested techniques to recreate familiar flavors. Think lentils soaked overnight, rich spices tenaciously roasted until their aromas release, cookware that demands slow cooking, and marination that gives flourishes to simple daily foods.

We hope to have you relish our nostalgic offerings and that our sincere hospitality keeps you coming back for more.
