As expected with any good Melbourne lunch spot, the venue was bustling and had a line out the door. Whilst Delhi Streets offers a take-away option, it only took 10 minutes until we were seated by the exceptionally friendly and welcoming staff.
To eat I ordered the samosa chaat (fried samosas filled with potato and peas, served with chickpeas and sweet and spicy chutneys) and the tandoori chicken pizza naan (topped with chicken tikka, baby spinach, coriander, cheese, capsicum and onions).
I couldn't decide which one to order - so I just went with both - although one for lunch would have been plenty. With their vibrant colours and fragrant flavours, both dishes were absolute taste sensations, and the hardest choice I will have going back is which one I'll choose.
My dining companion had the mix thali (choice of two curries with rice, naan, pappadum, raita and salad) which unfortunately didn't meet the standard of my two dishes. The curry was bland and was served in very small portions.
As such, if going to Delhi Streets for lunch, I would highly recommend ordering items from the "Street Chaat" or "Wraps and Burgers" sections of the menus, rather than go for their traditional curries.
Venue: 4/5
Food: 4/5
Service: 4/5
Total: 12/15
Verdict: Love - get around to trying it soon.
