Delhi is one of the best cities to experience a wide variety of dishes from a wide variety of restaurants, though it can sometimes be difficult deciding which ones to go for. Here are our picks for the restaurants on Swiggy you need to order from without ever leaving the comfort of wherever you are.
Gulati, Pandara RoadOne of the most famous of all restaurants located in the Pandara Road market, Gulati is famous for its Mughlai and Indian cuisine. The butter chicken here has been among the best in the city for long, and if you're a non-vegetarian, there's no reason for you to miss it.
Their galauti kebabs {soft and melt-in-mouth} are another must-try, along with the paneer lababdar; made from fresh cottage cheese and a favourite among vegetarians.

Biryani Blues, Connaught PlaceYou can get delish, authentic biryani here along with a myriad of other dishes you need to try now. While their menu features a lot of variants of the Hyderabadi biryani, the Chicken 65 and keema biryani are by far the bestsellers.
Their Andhra mutton fry is quite awesome, too; the irrestible flavour of the mutton prepared the Andhra way helps make sure you keep coming back to it.

Kainoosh, Vasant KunjOne of the finest restaurants in Delhi, Kainoosh is located in DLF Promenade, Vasant Kunj, and is famous for its Sighri ka Boti Kebab, Yam and Zucchini Kebab, and Murgh Mangal Ram.
Sighri ka Boti Kebab {from the starters menu} is prepared by cooking lamb shoulders to the point where they're so tender that they melt in your mouth. Yam and Zucchini Kebab isn't much different in its taste description, either, though it can be enjoyed by non vegetarians and vegetarians alike. The dish is not commonly available in the city, which makes it all the more special.
Moving to the main course, the tender Murgh Mangal Ram is a hot favourite, and shouldn't be missed at any cost.

The teriyaki chicken comes with the perfect flavour of the thick teriyaki sauce, and its combination with the soy sauce and rice wine hits just the right taste buds. The pad thai noodles, available in vegetarian, chicken and prawn variants, have a plethora of ingredients like rice noodles, fish sauce, stir-fried eggs, tamarind paste, fresh bean sprouts etc.

Sethi’s, Rajouri GardenSethi’s is more of an open-air dhaba than a restaurant, and if you happen to visit it, especially on a weekend, you may not find a table owing to the sheer number of people waiting to get a bite. If you do, some of the must-tries here are Kali Mirch Chicken, Special Beli Ram Chicken and dal makhani.
Kali Mirch Chicken, from their tandoori-snacks menu, is simply delicious, though that's not it; their Special Beli Ram Chicken is another dish you have to try. For the vegetarians, just go with the dal makhani; the thick gravy of the dal and the delectable flavour of black lentils, cooked overnight on a low flame, make the dish one of the highlights on the menu.
What To Order: Kali Mirch Chicken, Special Beli Ram Chicken, Dal Makhani

Sagar Ratna, Defence ColonyFor an authentic South Indian experience, Sagar Ratna remains a favourite among Delhites. The dishes that you should definitely try out here are Veg Uttapam, Mysore Masala Dosa and Family Dosa.
The Veg Uttapam is loaded with veggies like capsicums, onions, tomatoes, carrots etc., and one can clearly tell that the dough used to prepare it is fresh. The Mysore Masala Dosa is also quite easy on the taste buds, with a flavourful paste of chilli and garlic to go with the potato masala inside.

The Good Food Café, PitampuraThe Good Food Café is an open-air spot that serves some good Continental, Italian and fast food. The must-try dishes here include the Premium Chocolate Sundae, the variety of fresh salads they have on-offer, and the Kadahi Chicken Pizza.
The Chocolate Sundae is the perfect way to start your day {or even end it}; rich with chocolate, this is for the ones with a sweet tooth. The fresh salads are a treat, too; you even have the option to choose your own ingredients to make one of your own. Just select the ingredients from a variety of veggies or chicken, all at a reasonable price.
If you feel like having a pizza, we would recommend the fusion of Indian and Italian they call the Kadahi Chicken Pizza; made using the combination of the kadahi chicken topping along with Italian seasoning.
