Delhi Restaurant Southsea brings the flavours of Old Delhi to 175 Albert Road. The venue combines takeaway convenience with a dining space for customers who want to settle in over street food, curries and rice dishes rather than carry a meal home.
Small plates draw from several Indian regions, including onion bhaji, samosa chaat, dahi batata puri and Mumbai style vada pav. Paneer with pineapple and overnight marinated chicken tikka bring the tandoor into the opening part of the meal.
Home style curries range from smooth chicken tikka makhanwala and aromatic Nawabi chicken korma to lamb vindaloo, Karachi karahi and coconut enriched Kerala fish. Dum biryani layers seasoned chicken, lamb or vegetables with basmati rice for a complete centrepiece.
Dhaal, saag, spiced potatoes, rice, breads and fresh chutneys make it easy to customise a shared table. Delhi is particularly rewarding for diners who want to move beyond one curry and compare tangy chaat, grilled food and slow cooked sauces in the same meal.
Address: 175 Albert Road, Southsea, Portsmouth PO4 0JW, England
