The Heart of Delhi, Now in Dayton

They say Dilli Dilwalon Ki—Delhi belongs to the big-hearted. At Dear Delhi, we’ve brought that legendary heart and soul to the streets of South Brunswick. Tucked away on Georges Road in Dayton, we aren't just a restaurant; we are a piece of home. From the smoky aroma of our overnight-simmered lentils to the laughter over our signature 'Talli Pani Puri' shots, we invite you to experience the rustic, honest flavors of a true North Indian dhaba, served with the warmth of a neighbor.

Always wanted to go to good Indian restaurant with authentic north Indian and finally found this gem close to South Brunswick and Monroe in NJ. Tandoori mushroom and soya chaap was out of this world. Fish and chicken was to die for. Will definitely go again.😍
