This was our first restaurant on the first day of our trip to India, so expectations were high. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by both the hotel and restaurant staff. Everyone was incredibly helpful and explained the menu perfectly. From the starters to the mains and desserts, it was a truly memorable culinary experience. While the prices may be higher than at other places, it is absolutely worth it. I would say the standout dish was the Duck Confit Red curry. My friend ordered it, but I managed to get a bite, and with a bit of roti, it was exceptional. If I ever return to Delhi, this would be the first place I would visit without hesitation.
Lunch at The Spice Route was an outstanding experience. The set menu offered excellent quality throughout, with beautifully balanced flavors and refined presentation. Service was attentive, professional, and perfectly paced. Particularly impressive is the atmosphere: a rare oasis of calm in the otherwise vibrant chaos of Delhi. The combination of ambiance, food quality, and fair pricing makes this a highly recommendable destination. Delighted to have discovered this place — I will certainly return.
Just an amazing experience. Better than a 5 star rating. The decor is mind blowing. The detailing is the best I have seen ever in a restaurant anywhere in the world. The service and food are excellent. The atmosphere is transporting. Given it took 7 years to build this its a complete work of art and a labor of love. Excellent evening. Needs to be experienced not read about.
“Flavorful Asian Food”, “Many Vegetarian Options”, “Great Ambience & Service” Went for the second time today and the flavors were still very much on point. Unfortunately, the cauliflower fritters were undercooked, so I could still see and taste the white batter… But otherwise, it was an enjoyable meal. The service was great and the ambience unbeatable.
So deserving of its high reviews and ratings. The menu is curated superbly by their Master Chefs and caters for all discerning tastes including vegan and allergy sufferers. Set in the majestic Imperial hotel you are wowed from the point of arrival through the amazing hotel Atrium and taken back into colonial times of the Raj as the interior de or is sublime and interior is painted using food colourings too! The meet and greet is considerate and efficient. The dining area superbly laid out and really there's not a bad seat anywhere. The staff are attentive and considerate and offer advice and shows they've been really well trained by management here. The accompanying drinks complement the dining moods and varying spice levels means select by the glass for each course. A worthy winner of its rosettes and definitely in the conversation for Michelin recognition. You won't find a bad plate and your tastebuds will be left tingling with delight. You will be whisked back into the old times of original India. A booking is essential at the usual peak times as a very popular place and we were staying at the hotel when all the EU Commission dignitaries frequented so I'm sure this experience will reverberate to making this place even more popular.
