Very few restaurants truly capture the essence of Indian street food — the bold flavors, the nostalgia and this is definitely one of them. The selection is refreshing and impressively vast, covering all the classics you crave.
I especially loved their Bedmi Poori, crisp, flavorful, and paired beautifully with the sabzi. Everything we tried was good, but the street food items truly stood out. The flavors are authentic, well-balanced just the way they should be.

Everything we ordered was great in taste and portion size were good. Valu for money. Look st bhature size and there were 2 of them. Bit oily but still good. Papdi chaat was good too.
Parking was bit difficult to find and waiting for seating was almost 20 min all bcos we went there on Feb 14..it’s valentines day. Crowded and noisy

5 stars! The weather was perfect—snowy, cold, and damp, which made the authentic, fresh flavors and spices at Chatpati Delhi taste even better. It was a perfect flavor tango. Our mouths were watering to try more, but we would have needed to go for another long walk just to make enough space!
Our server, Sravya, had a great sense of humor and her recommendations were spot on. We loved the Raj Kachori, Chicken Kheema with Roomali Roti, and the Chole Bhature. It is no surprise this spot was spotlighted in the New York Times; it has clearly already earned the attention it deserves. Highly recommend

Friends recommended the chole bhature here, and they were definitely good. The bhature are huge, though the chole could have been better. One order was enough for an adult and a child to share.
The thali is grand, and it’s interestingly served with pooris, which you can optionally swap for naan or roti. The masala soda was delicious too. There was no wait when we arrived at noon, but it got pretty busy soon after. It’s a casual spot with quick service, reasonably priced and there’s parking outside the restaurant.

Want to say it’s hard to find a fault with this restaurant. everything is so damn good! Outside definitely ask the waiters for their recommendations as all of them are spot on but even picking blindly you’ll get some amazing tastes. And the service is super fast too even if it’s full!
Edit : went again and as usual all the new dishes we ordered again blew us out of the water. Special shout out to Vijay! Awesome server!

Kind of a damp squib of an experience for us but it’s rather pacifying to think it’s not entirely their fault.
Or maybe… just maybe… knowing they featured on the list of top restaurants spiked our expectations a bit too much.
Got a table in five minutes on a Saturday afternoon, which, I am told, is a powerball jackpot of sorts in itself.
We ordered Chicken Keema Roll, Pav Bhaji, Bhatti Paneer Sizzler, CPD Veg Thali and Jaljeera.
First, the black colored plates were not clean in the sense that there were stubborn oil stains (that, in all fairness, tend to persist through some dishwashers).
The food itself took its time to arrive… not as “fast” as mentioned in most reviews but arrived hot.
Taste is good. Nothing fantastic but definitely something worth waiting for maybe utmost fifteen minutes for a table.
Pav Bhaji was a major let down for my palette with the bhaji too tart (perhaps the tomatoes turned out too sour that day out of pure contempt for me).
Thali (with pooris) was good, with all accompaniments complementing each other well.
The roll came with fries in the shape of swirls and both were tasty.
Sizzler too was good with large chunks of well cooked and seasoned paneer.
Jaljeera did a good job of keeping the tongue cool-and-tangy company through the meal.
Staff is warm and prompt, though it takes a larger heart than mine to catch their attention.
Will I go back? Yes.
Will I wait more than 15 minutes if I go back? No. Perhaps a take away.

Chatpati Delhi serves great food with bold, authentic flavors that are truly worth trying. Everything we ordered was fresh and full of taste, especially if you enjoy classic North Indian street-style dishes.
It does get very busy, so expect a long wait, but the food more than makes up for it. Highly recommended—just plan your visit with some extra time.

Went in with really high expectations after reading all the great reviews, but for me, the experience was good — just not as extraordinary as expected. The food quality was nice and fresh, though some dishes lacked the authentic punch of flavors.
Tried their Chole Bhature — the bhatura was soft, fluffy, and perfectly sized, but the chole could’ve been more flavorful; it missed that spicy and tangy kick. The Shev Puri Dahi Puri had good texture and presentation, but the sweetness of the curd overpowered the chutneys and spices. The Paneer Sizzler had very soft and fresh paneer, though the overall dish tasted quite mild.
The restaurant has plenty of seating, but do expect at least a 30-minute wait, even on weekdays. On the positive side, the staff was very friendly and attentive, always available to assist with orders and make the experience pleasant.
Overall, a decent place to try once — great service, but the flavors could be more authentic to truly match the hype.

There is no shortage of Indian restaurants in NJ but we are no experts so we rely on good reviews from others. The NY Times had just featured Chatpati Delhi as one of the 50 best in the country so it was no surprise that we had to wait 1.5 hours for a table on a Saturday evening. But good food requires sacrifice so we waited. And boy, was the food worth the wait. Dishes came out fast and everything we tried had great balance of sour, sweet, spice and freshness. Most striking was the customer service. Crew was attentive, engaging with us, asking us if everything is to our liking. The owners were also very nice, even giving us free samples of the sweets even after I said I wanted to pay. Their only request was that we try them and come back. I don’t think that is a hard ask as this place is now our default for Indian food. 11/10 would recommend!

Tried Chapati Deli in North Brunswick after reading the New York Times piece recommending it as one of the 50 great places to eat in NJ. I had the garlic naan and the chicken tikka masala with rice. Everything was incredibly tasty, flavorful, fresh, and absolutely delicious. The portion was generous, too. The service was fast and friendly. I’m definitely coming back!
