Delhi Highway

Who doesn’t like North-Indian cuisine? Who doesn’t find the piping hot curries, melt-in-your-mouth kebabs and hot buttery naans an immense temptation? And after accompanying with beautiful Chennai’s seafood you are left with a memorable meal. North-Indian food in Chennai is nothing short of a revelation, by the presence of numerous restaurants that have excelled themselves in this cuisine. ‘Delhi Highway’ is a comparatively new arrival amongst the legendary establishments but in short time has captured the soul of this cuisine through its superb menu. The restaurant carries a feel good vibe that is only accentuated through its décor. Traditional aesthetics and modern lines walks in hand in hand together, leaving you with a sense of visual pleasure. Delhi Highway is perfect for families and colleagues whose sole focus is to have fun. You will find the restaurant on Casa Major Road in Egmore area.

You will find the fusion look of Delhi Highway charming. While the lines and appeal is quite contemporary in fashion, there remains an old-fashioned influence too. Beige and brown theme is played with through the upholstery and bright lamps pulls away the darkness of the room. Traditional motifs are used in the décor to emphasis the Indian aspect. Comfy couches and straight back chairs are included for a comfortable formal seating. Keeping true to the rural name, the restaurant has incorporated a rustic charm through the steel utensils. They have given the glass/ceramic crockery a miss which we find a good decision. The decision does a lot to bring in the traditional dhaba-flavour to the scenario. Their service is mention-worthy as well. Staff does a good job of attending you and is attentive throughout the evening.
