Reviews
The place was super crowded and congested it felt like. The service was good, the staff are really welcoming and pleasant.
Now coming to the food, prices are obviously quite high, which is ok for a place inside ITC Maurya, understandable, but was it worth the prices? No!
Tried their famous Dal Bukhara, which was quite average and certainly not as great as the hype and prices say. Butter naan was good.
We ordered Fish, pomfret. It was again just average, nothing so great or outstanding for the price being charged. Drinks were fine.
Overall, would not recommend and won’t come back here for sure. Certainly not worth spending so much money on. I guess rich tourists will enjoy the large naan (presentation) and overall dishes, but if you are someone who wants to have really good food with better fine dining experience, I would suggest skip this and go to even the Pavilion restaurant next doors inside ITC itself. Better chairs and tables at least
I had heard that the cuisine at Bukhara has a rustic charm of the North West Frontier’s culinary heritage.
The restaurant was established in 1978.
However, the wait times are significantly high.
Service is slow too
If you’re visiting Delhi or staying here, you must experience Bukhara at least once.
The whole combination of dishes, service and traditions will leave you stunned.
From being asked if we’re comfortable eating without cutlery to follow the traditions to the attention in detail to the decor.
In terms of food, we tried the paneer tikka, dal bukhara , different types of naan and all these were tasty and well cooked.
Must say the prices are on the higher end, but portions were perfect.
Glad I’ve experienced it!
The much-celebrated Dal Bukhara was indeed distinct and had a rich, smoky flavor, though it didn’t entirely justify its legendary reputation. Other dishes, however, fell short of expectations. The Paneer Malai Tikka was average, lacking the depth and finesse one would anticipate from a restaurant of this stature. The Tandoori Pomfret unfortunately had a strong fishy odor and had to be replaced with Chicken Malai Tikka, which was merely satisfactory.
The variety of breads, including kulchas, were decent but nothing extraordinary. The ambience is fine, and the open kitchen adds a sense of transparency and hygiene, yet the seating arrangement can feel somewhat uncomfortable and cramped.
In essence, Bukhara is worth a one-time visit, primarily to experience the famed Dal Bukhara and to satisfy one’s curiosity about the much-publicized cuisine. Beyond that, the overall value for money is questionable, and the food, while acceptable, doesn’t quite live up to the high expectations set by its reputation.
Verdict: A place to visit once, experience the hype, and judge for yourself.
*Food Quality*: The dishes were expertly prepared with fresh ingredients and presented with elegance. Each bite was a delight, with flavors that were both bold and refined.
*Service*: The staff were attentive, courteous, and knowledgeable. They took the time to understand my needs and provided exceptional service that elevated the entire experience.
*Ambience*: The restaurant’s ambiance was clean, calm, and beautifully designed. It’s the perfect setting for a family dinner, a night out with friends, or a business meeting.
*Value for Money*: Given the quality of the food and service, the prices were more than reasonable. I felt like I got great value for my money.
*Overall*: This restaurant is a must-visit for anyone looking for a refined dining experience. The attention to detail, commitment to quality, and exceptional service make it a standout in the culinary scene. I highly recommend it!
Food (4/5):
The Daal Bukhara is rich, creamy, and iconic. Murgh Malai Tikka was a huge portion, perfectly cooked. Bitter Naan (closer to a lachha paratha hybrid) was tasty, pudina paratha average. Kulfi was a sweet end. Papads were inconsistent, some overcooked.
Ambience (4/5):
Rustic vibe, elegant decor, hanging copper utensils, and the live kitchen view made it unique
Seating (3/5):
Padded stools and benches instead of chairs. Authentic hand-eating encouraged, though may not suit everyone
Service (2.5/5):
Reception was the low point – the lady at the desk hardly smiled. First impressions matter, and this needs fixing. Food service was slower than expected because it was full house
Booking Experience (2.5/5):
Calls went unanswered. We took a gamble with a walk-in and got lucky, but the process is frustrating given its popularity
Overall: Bukhara is a must-visit for its legendary dishes and ambience, but service and booking ease really need work. Best reserved for special occasions.
The best food served by any hotel in entire India.
Items must try are Tandoori Aloo, Papad, Tandoori Paneer, Butter Naan, Kulcha, Black Dal Peshawari.
Superb food. The dal is cooked for 24 hours before it is served. It’s rich and heavy. A must try.
It’s authentic Indian restaurant. So you have to eat with hands.
Also the seating is like old Dhabha style.
Seating is little uncomfortable, to sit on benches, but it’s the traditional old Indian decor styled theme.
