Dining at Indian Accent is an experience to remember for a long time. It was our wedding anniversary and we are glad we chose to dine at this restaurant. Whether it’s the taste of the dishes, or the presentation or the impeccable service, everything was exceptional. Not surprising at all that they are listed among the top 50 restaurants in the world. I hope they become the first restaurant in India to get a Michelin star as well. After deliberating on the menu for a while, we decided to go for the chef’s tasting menu and we are glad we did so. The six course degustation style meal was one of the best we have ever had in any restaurant. The amuse-bouche and the palette cleanser were exceptional too. They were happy to customise the dishes according to our dietary requirements. I decided to have the baked fish instead of mutton for one of the courses and it was extra ordinary. The fish was perfectly cooked. It almost melted in the mouth. I would have liked a tiny bit more coconut flavour in the chettinad chicken keema. But it’s just nit-picking. The dish was great nevertheless. While booking the table, I had mentioned to them over the phone that it was our wedding anniversary. They remembered that and our desert platter had a candle and a message to wish us. It was certainly a very nice gesture. Needless to say the staff were very friendly and attentive without being annoying. We are looking forward to dining there again. Although it is not their fault, being unable to serve alcohol because of the changed law, is a bit of a disadvantage for them. No wine at a fine dining restaurant is bit of a miss. I hope they find some sort of a work around.

Lovely place yaar.... Excellent taste ... Der r all dishes are perfect.. The freshness of the ingredients can be felt as you into the roll. The taste of the perfectly baked pesto in the oven was just divine. Very limited people in delhi can make proper pesto for der pasta . ... Ambience was too good.. Must try dal moradabadi, kashmiri walnut paneer, wild mushroom kulcha, old monk rum ball.....

Indian Accent greeted really well, serving us Mushroom Shorba while we were selecting what to order. I ordered Butter Chicken Naan, it was too amazing. The staff was very courteous, everything was served well. This Modern Indian twist was way beyond my expectations.

One of the best place in Delhi for fine dining. Being a vegetarian who isn’t fond of coconut, I could observe that almost all the dishes at least in vegetarian chef’s special tasting menu had a touch of coconut in it. So that can be lowered down. Otherwise everything else was great.

We visited this restaurant last night (07.11.13). This is one of the most delicious Indian meals we have ever eaten. The menu is extensive and varied and caters for all tastes of Indian cuisine. We had the tandoori platter(not sure) (for 2) to start and this was absolutely delicious

3 Course Menu @ Indian Accent, Lodhi Road, Delhi

Taste - 5, Quantity - 4, Quality - 5, Hygiene - 5, Service - 5, Ambiance - 5, Price - Expensive

Verdict - Must Eat This

Indian Accent is the restaurant by coveted celebrity chef - Manish Mehrotra. This restaurant in New Delhi has brought quite number of accolades to contemporary Indian food. This is the only restaurant from India on the World’s 100 Best list since 2015 and being awarded the Best Restaurant in India by Asia’s 50 Best for last 4 years. Recently, it got its presence in New York in 2016 and in London in 2017. So we had to visit this place some day and what could be better than the occasion of our wedding anniversary.

We chose their 3 course menu (vegetarian) and thoroughly enjoyed it. The epic food journey started with cute little Blue Cheese Naan for the starters.

Then we got our hands on 'Chowpatty in a bowl'. This had a bed of tangy and spicy bhaji with a small crispy bowl with delicious chaat in it. On top sits, the cute and crispy tempered Ricotta Vada. Accompanying the dish were tiny pao smeared in kafir lime butter poked in skews. The dish had a burst of flavors while balancing the ethnicity of street Pao Bhaji.

To neutralize the taste buds for the next dish, we were served little anar and churan kulfi sorbet. What made it more beautiful were the small cookers in which they were served.

Next there was Rajasthani ker sangri flavored paneer in smoked papad ki curry. There were paneer discs with layers of scrambled paneer in the flavor of rajasthani local ker sangri. The preparation was poured with a smoked papad ki curry preparation which had a strong earthy smoked flavor. The curry was enjoyed with naan and tandoori roti.

It was time for desserts. From the options we chose - Badam Halwa pie. This pie had a base of desi badam halwa with a mixture of almond flakes in honey and caramelised berries. The halwa was too good in taste and texture. The pie was served with a side of fresh cranberries and cheeni malai ice cream.

Then came the hero from the streets of old Delhi - Daulat ki Chaat. This might sound like another savory snack to you but this is a magical dessert authentically from Delhi. Hold your hearts steady, this is made from the foam of milk and cream and topped with nuts. Daulat ki chaat felt so uniquely light yet the flavors were in abundance. Raspberry aloo chips and vanilla bean icecream was served to complement this.

To complete the Indian fine dining experience - we got Rewari and Aam Papad on a cute little cot or charpai to remind us of our childhood.

The whole meal was satisfying and amazingly fulfilling. All the recipes were uniquely twisted yet had that authentic Indian flavors. Kudos to the chef and his team for giving us this memorable experience. What else to say - Must Eat This.

I went to this restaurant and found it quite good..we have ordered jackfruit tacos, crispy potato chaat, pao bhaji and Palak paneer kulcha along-with Sangria. I must say taste is just like homely food and was good but the portion size was too less which means 1 person needs to order 2 or 3 dishes to have a full meal. Food was amazing , staff was amazing and courteous and very professional too. But if you are planning to go with your children below 10 years, so forget it because they will not allow children below 10 years, it’s against their policy. It’s a bit expensive according to the quantity offered.

The execution is perfect and the pricing is crucial for indian market... my long request to chef Manish is to have a premium menu like a 10 k price tag which gives them more freedom and sourcing and to innovate and bring in some sophistication to our dining experience.... with the limitation in price tag and supplies of products in our indian market especially delhi ncr they are doing a remarkable job to consistently run a restaurant with a hearty meal and a 60$ price tag worthy of a Michelin dining. So to all who read this go and enjoy the experience of a Michelin dining in India... and those who prefer quantity over quality- sorry

This place will stay with you for the longest time. The chef's menu is a delight to both eyes and taste. The chef takes the simplest of ingredients to another level with his inventiveness. It is modern, contemporary and all that jazz, but what stood out was the hospitality that the customers feel here. As always, I would state, the dining experience is incomplete, rather has the potential to ruin even the best of gastronomical experience, if you do not feel at calm, invited, and fed with care. Indian Accent scored for me on all grounds possible- taste of food, visual delights, ambience. It made the wintry sun even more delightful. Looking forward to dine under the starry night soon.

The experience is something that will stay with you a long time! Indian Accent delivers. We were a table of 4, with two set lunches and two of us ordering a la carte. The food, to be honest, was very good without really bowling us over. The presentation, the variety and the service really elevated the experience, however.
Both the options were quite exciting to be honest. The green lentil amuse bouche was a well balanced warm offering to set us on course. With many very interesting dishes, having varied tastes and textures, some just stood out.
The gucchi or morel Mushroom starter (morel musallum) was a stunner, with perfectly juicy morel hiding beautiful spices with hint of ajwain and jeera on a bed of light creamy sauce, accompanied by complimentary Parmesan crisps.
A simple soy boti roll with a create-yourself theme was a lot of fun, with us trying our hand at balancing the several components with beautifully cooked and spiced soy chaap. Mock-meat ala Indien 🍴😊!
The simple masala chuski as a palette cleanser worked even in the biting Delhi winter.
Especially loved a bourbon-based drink with ginger and rose petals .. I forget the name, however.
The desserts were a tad bit underwhelming with daulat ki chaat with roasted almond being just about pass grade - light fluffy saffron-infused cream with roasted almond not doing anything in particular. Doodhi jalebi that my friends got was good - nothing exceptional about it.
On the whole, we loved the experience. Very good food, coupled with the service, presentation and innovation is worth making a trip (and a reservation!) :-)

Got a reservation here after several attempts! But it was worth it. Ordered ghee roast mutton boti for starters! Tasted good. Found the quantity less as compared to the price but then came a complimentary tea & bite sized cheese kulcha’s. After that we ordered for butter chicken kulcha’s with black dairy dal & it was accompanied by churan chuski. All the food tasted excellent & complimentary surprises after each course were the best part. At the time of billing we were again served with a complimentary dessert daulat ki chaat which was super amazing. Will be surely coming back again for more! This place gives u experience apart from top quality service & food.

The best meal you can have in India- period! The very fact it was full on a Monday dinner and all I could hear the other tables was - How amazing is the food says a lot about the place!

Extremely well thought out menu.. So full of flavours and absolutely fresh ingredients.. I haven’t had better crab or fish anywhere else.. The staff was very courteous and well informed! The chef very graciously accommodated all our dietary restrictions which if I may say- are too many..

Going back again in less than a month.. Team Indian Accent you have a Patron for life!

Chef Manish Mehrotra and Shantanu are no less than Rockstars. This brand has made our country proud throughout the world.

The theme and execution of each and every dish is so enigmatic and superb, it's just unbelievable. Each dish curated by the chefs just brings out the best of all worlds. Like the Chole Bhature tarts shells , the Matar chura from Bihar in one bite and the fresh burrata cheese with Tomato chaat ,pear and sunflower shoots. One of the best pork renditions, the Pork Ribs in Meetha Aachar ( sweet pickle)and puffs is just mind blowing.Not to forget the blue cheese mini naan which is just next level.

Service is classy and personalised to the core. A beautiful restaurant with beautiful people great food experience. A must visit for special occasions. Book well in advance.

Indian accent is a place you must keep in mind for special occasions. It surely became a memorable experience.

I went for veg and non veg chef’s platter as I want more interested in trying a variety and I want disappointed in my choice.

When visiting Indian accent do keep in mind to enjoy the experience and not be bothered by the small quantity of the food.

I would recommend it a 100%.

Delightful experience. The place has been rated highly and well deserves the appreciation and recognition. The staff is cordial, well aware and helpful. The food quality, presentation and the serving standards are high. Steep on the pricing side. The seating is comfortable and nice water body effect in view. The reason I dropped a star here was due to a highly noisy-annoying other table customer, same informed to the manager for future guests comfort, and other reason was the difficulty in reservation. Overall, a highly recommended and must visit place. The tasting menu is well curated.

This must be one of the finest Indian restaurants in Delhi. Presentation exquisite and innovative, although based on traditional dishes and street food. See the photos for some idea of the creativity . Everything tasted delicious, difficult to leave anything even once full. Great selection of vegetarian and vegan options which i loved . Staff are professional, efficient , friendly and helpful explaining all the names of the Indian dishes. Still salivating and look forward to visiting when we return to Delhi, I wouldnt bother looking anywhere else for an incredible dining experience , Thanks to all the team at Indian Accent for a wonderful evening

The food was great. A bit too spicy for my western palette both in terms of the amount and complexity of spices used and in terms of hotness (spicy crab salad was indeed spicy) but in general an amazing eating experience. Service was 6 stars out of 5. The signature dessert was simply spectacular.

Great modern Indian food. The prices are a bit high, especially the alcohol. The design of the restaurant is a little strange as it's divided into glass sections so you don't really get a nice atmosphere, although some people might prefer it as more secluded/private.

Let me break my experience into 3 high level categories. 1. Ambience- 5*. perfect for a dinner/lunch date. Ask for the table with a view. Or outside near the pond(sorts) 2. Service- 5*. The service was the best and the servers and support staff were very courteous. 3. Food- 5*. Going there is more of an experience of tasting some amazing varieties of food. The Chef’s choice menu is a good start if you are going there for the first time. pics attached of the various delicacies The last was the bill which is actually expensive. 17 grands for 3 - (without alcohol). So this is more of an experience you should go for. Worth trying once.
