Beer then curry, is there a more logical sequence of events? Lager followed by goat’s cheese tartlet...ale then Caesar salad...stout then trout… they just don’t have the same appeal. However, that last one does have a certain ring to it. So, after a clutch of post-work weekday pints down the Bay, there was only way the evening was going to go… The Duchess of Delhi’s Head Chef, Sundaramoorthy Krishnasamy, knows how to cook a damn fine curry. I’ve previously enjoyed his Southern Indian food when he was running the kitchen at Spiceberry . And with experience behind the stoves at Purple Poppadom and Mint & Mustard, Krishnasamy has an enviable Cardiff curry CV. Whilst The Duchess of Delhi’s a la carte menu encompasses specialities from across Southern Asian, including Nepalese momos and Indonesian Nasi-goreng alongside more familiar curry house staples, it’s reassuring to see there’s still a dominance of Southern Indian food. However, this is a little moot as we arrived just before 7pm and
I was very hungry 10pm and a nice lady let me order when they closed. I was not expecting much because the hour but they treat me very well and the food was nice too. All the place where closed but they save the day.
Two diners, one vegan, one not. Both catered for. Good food, well prepared. It's worth mentioning that it's cash only on a Sunday. We were warned when we ordered, so no problem. I'm from North West England, so some things were unfamiliar. The poppadoms came already broken into pieces, and there were only three chutneys. Up north we're used to unbroken poppadoms and five chutneys. The other minor quibble was no-one was able to make any of the cocktails on the menu, but again that was because it was a Sunday. Plenty of other options, so not a major problem. A good selection of beers and lagers available.
I came for a meal before the cinema yesterday with my friend. I would 100% recommend, it’s such a lovely place.
The service is excellent and they are so friendly. The hot towels after the meal are a lovely addition too.
The meal itself was really flavourful. I’m a vegetarian and they have loads of options including the meat mains with a vegetarian alternative; it’s so nice to have plenty to choose from and not miss out. Our meals were delicious and the naan was really fresh.
I would definitely recommend visiting!
Great food. I think there were some new staff members on the day so service was a bit below par and it was quiet so not much atmosphere. We had to move tables due to smell of cannabis wafting in from the street outside, but they happily accommodated us.
Beautiful curry (lamb teekha) and great service from the staff. Kingfisher on tap as well 🍻
It is an amazing restaurant with fantastic staff. Can't wait to go back again.

Lovely food and service too- I’ve no idea why there are such horrible reviews for this place - presumably some kind of personal reasons from competition perhaps? From the moment I arrived (I’m on a work trip) I was made to feel very welcome and looked after. The food was also lovely . I would definitely recommend.
Lovely staff and great food. Restaurant is cosy and you're made to feel welcome as soon as you walk in. Staff can't do enough to help you. Also excellent value for money considering the great service and food you get.
Had the lamb vin d'alho and my wife had butter chicken. Very tasty and different to the usual run of the mill dishes of this type... amazing flavours! Will definitely go back
They've revamped the vegetarian/vegan menu too.
Very tasty food and lovely staff
