The 38 Best Restaurants in New Delhi, India | Eater

"Price Range: $$$$ Since Indian Accent’s opening, chef Manish Mehrotra’s modern take on traditional cuisine has received resounding approval from Delhi locals. Mehrotra spent nine years traveling Asia to explore the region’s varied cuisines before launching what’s become the most famous restaurant in India. (He has also opened locations in New York and Mumbai.) His contemporary spin on raita combines yogurt, water chestnut, and wasabi, while his braised lamb shanks come with a traditional Punjabi lobia (black-eyed pea curry). Note: Reservations are booked up to two months ahead. Vibe check: Indian Accent has been on Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants list for a decade, so expect other fans coming for the hype." - Sharanya Deepak
