Visited this week as a group of 4, I used to regularly dine in Dalchini 15+ years ago and was excited to try it again. The staff were friendly but not attentive, for example we weren’t offered any water on arrival or throughout our meal. Unfortunately the ambience was lacking, we were only ones in the restaurant bar one other table, there was no background music and no physical menu’s - you have to scan a QR code. When dinning out for dinner, you want to put your phone away, so really didn’t enjoy the fact that the only option to access the menu was from our phones, scrolling to fine dishes. The drinks menu wasn’t online even though the QR code was for ‘food and drinks’ . The drinks options were okay, but lacking. I think they had two options for mocktails and basic soft drinks only. The food was okay - good but not memorable. The pepper chilli paneer was very good, vegetarian Manchurian was good too. I did find the portions to be small compared to other indo Chinese spots - especially the chilli paneer starter. It took a while for our dessert order to be taken, and the bill to arrive. After we placed our desert order and menu’s were taken away, the waiter came back a few later and asked if we wanted ice cream with the dessert - we said yes and were charged. We found it a bit odd, and assumed it was included. All in all, average experience which was disappointing as we had high hopes.
