Duchess Of Delhi

"I recently visited Duchess of Delhi and was blown away by the explosion of flavors! From the crispy pops to the mouthwatering dishes every dish was a culinary adventure. The banjari ghost and ch chrttinadu was perfectly tangy, and the chuntneys was incredibly fresh. The service was warm and welcoming, making the whole experience even better. If you're looking for authentic South Indian cuisine, this place is a must-try!"

Outstanding restaurant, this place has exceeded my expectations and left me with no negative experience whatsoever. The staff is very friendly and helpful and the food has left me with no words 😶, this hidden gem is one to take note of.

We went there today and I would say the service is very good and staff are very nice and polite. The atmosphere is very peaceful and calm. The food quality was good, though for 17-18£ main course, I expect a bit more. I ordered mango curry and I loved it, it was delicious but as it’s not served with rice or bread, I feel the portion needs to be a bit bigger. The drinks were average. For dessert, only gulab jamun was Indian so I ordered it and it was very delicious but we didn’t like strawberry icecream, as there were pieces of ice in it! Overall, we enjoyed our experience and I suggest you to give it a shot!

My partner and I visited Duchess of Delhi just before Christmas, and we’re pleasantly surprised every time we go. The food here is consistently excellent. The poppadoms to start are genuinely the best you can get, served with delicious dips including mango chutney, mint yoghurt and a wonderfully punchy lime pickle. For mains, we had the butter chicken, Hyderabadi chicken curry and the Nawabi lamb passanda, all of which were absolutely superb—rich, well-spiced and full of flavour without being overwhelming. With a side of naan and rice, everything was perfectly cooked and generously portioned, making it ideal for sharing. Washed down with a large Cobra lager, it made for a perfect evening meal, with plenty left over to enjoy the next day. Thoroughly recommended—one of our favourite Indian restaurants and always a pleasure to visit.

Absolutely brilliant 👍 Great service, great wine , my food was fantastic! Service was ace , a Bangladesh man (didn't get his name) was very friendly and I enjoyed my Lamb Madras. Thank you for a lovely evening.

We had an excellent meal with starters and drinks at the Duchess of Delhi post Cardiff half marathon and prior to seeing a show at the Wales Millennium Centre on 5th October. The manager helped us choose our food and made recommendations on what to eat. Everything was perfect. It's a lovely venue with a great atmosphere and good for groups. Good value for money too - we would highly recommend!

I ate here with friends. The food was nice and the service was pretty good. It was an authentic Indian and I recommend visiting if your in the area and like Indian food. I had the lamb samosa, lamb madras, pilau rice and a naan. My friends ate the chicken curry and chicken jalfrezi which they enjoyed.

This is a hidden gem fantastic place. Really lovely food full of flavour and spice wasn’t disappointed at all. Staff were great friendly and welcoming. Would highly recommend this place.

This was an overpriced Bangladeshi restaurant and best avoided. Especially with so much choice in that same row. Ambiance was dull and tired looking, as though a refurbishment is required. Service was average at best and food was both oily and over seasoned so too salty.

I was told takeaway would be done 'very quickly'. 35 minutes later, I still sat alone in the entryway while staff didn't acknowledge me or give me any update. When I spoke to the owner, she was one of the most dismissive people in the restaurant industry I've ever encountered. Telling me that she can give me a refund after 35 minutes and throw my food away. Those are my 2 options. And that she has no control over the kitchen, yet she's the owner. I told her there are other ways to honor customer service and ask the customer to come back and be shown the way things should be done, she still told me take the food or I'll throw it out and refund you. Wow, just wow.
