Cafe Delhi - Carnegie

Been here a few times, but the food is consistently good! We had the pakora, butter chicken and lamb vindaloo! We got it a 4 or 5 spicy, and honestly for our taste could have gone spicier! We ordered online for takeout and their ordering service is so easy to use! I liked that you could upgrade to rice naan for an extra $1. Next time we'd like to dine there because they have a nice patio area and it seems like it would be nice to just sit and chat there!

The food at this restaurant is delicious, but it is overpriced for the small portion sizes. I was disappointed to pay over $18 for a half cup of Chicken Tikka Marsala in a tiny cup without rice. I wish them the best, but unfortunately, the area lacks good ethnic food options. I will not be returning or ordering takeout from here. I miss the Indian restaurants in Oakland with their generous portion sizes, quality, flavor, and unique dishes. My experience did not improve on my second visit. Good luck to the owners.

We had a wonderful dinner at this restaurant. The level of spiciness was just right and all the dishes were cooked perfectly. They offer a great variety of both northern and southern specialties. We tried their vegetarian dishes, but the meat dishes also looked delicious. Even though they forgot to bring us water or drinks, it didn't take away from the overall fantastic dining experience.

Amazing food, fast service, friendly staff. I travel and have tried so many Indian Cuisines. This the best ever. Love!

Carnegie is quite a ways away from my house, but I was really craving to try a new Indian place. Cafe Delhi had some interesting menu items and some menu staples. Plus, I was curious as to what restaurants in the area served. I ended up ordering the Chana bhatura and gulab jamun. The bhatura bread was absolutely delicious. Portion was quite good. It was just oily enough to be flavorful, but not so oily that it was greasy in a bad way. There were also little crunchy pieces, as well as soft pieces. It was overall an excellent bread and something I'd recommend ordering on the side even if you don't get it with your main meal. The Chana itself was quite flavorful. It was a little bit spicy, but I could handle it. The texture was a little off for me. There seemed to be less whole chunks of chickpeas and more small pieces. Portion was pretty decent and it was overall tasty. The gulab jamun are a go to Indian dessert order for me (along with kheer). These gulab jamun balls were a little small. However, they were well made. They used an adequate amount of syrup (which is very sweet, but I could probably drink it on its own since it's so good). Not the best I've ever had, but definitely tasty. All in all, this is definitely high quality Indian food, especially for the area. There aren't too many Indian places near Carnegie, so I definitely recommend giving Cafe Delhi a try. Portions aren't as huge as they are in other places, but the flavors are there.
