First...Just wanna say thank you on behalf of me, my wife, my brother and his partner. Yet to have a bad meal there, always polite and friendlyDont think we’ll go again.

please mention to the owner. A takeaway service only due to the Covid 19 pandemic restrictions. Brilliantly laid out ;screens,socially distanced, and staff in full ppe. And the people order takeaway was having their food before usAmazing resturant. Search the history of over 446 billion web pages on the Internet. Please sent me an email on babchowdhury100@yahoo.com. Last night we tried this restaurant for the first time, everything was perfect. Not much of an atmosphere in there. We were seated at 7.50pm and eventually our orders were taken some 30 minutes later which is fine as it was a busy night for them. Own or manage this property?

Our main courses took 2 and a half hours to come and it was obvious they'd forgotten to put in our orders as everyone who walked in after got their good before us.

Ciaran Jones tucks inWant the best food, film, music, arts and culture news sent straight to your inbox?Opening your doors just weeks before Christmas in one of Cardiff’s most crowded restaurant clusters is a bold statement to the competition.Indeed, competition was at the forefront of my mind when I stepped through the doors of the The noise of the television soon gave way to music – though, again inexplicably, playing different tracks to the other half of the long, narrow room – and it began to feel like a restaurant rather than an intrusion on someone’s living room.Happily, this allowed the quality to come to the fore – and quality was in abundant supply.The menu explains how the “boutique restaurant and bar” was created to mark the widely-lauded culinary creations of South East Asia, with an emphasis on the diverse cultures and tastes of the region.In a break from the norm there’s even a mention of home-made desserts and the option to play after-dinner board games with a chai – a clever and creative twist from a restaurant in a field which has already been done par excellence elsewhere in the city.The extensive menu is also a refreshing departure from the hackneyed traditional curry dishes and their variants, with tempting offerings from Nepal, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Indonesia also available.The only downside of this was that it made the ubiquitous tray of poppadoms and chutneys (£5 for two people), which typically send my tastebuds whirling into a frenzy of anticipation ahead of an expected spicy curry, slightly out of step with the rest of our evening.That said, the crispy poppadom segments were accompanied by pleasing homemade chutneys, with a thick and onion-infused creation replacing the standard mango and a creamy raita (with slightly too much mint) to offset the powerful lime pickle.The attentive, polite waiting staff held off patiently until we had finished surveying the menu before taking our order after we debated what to have at length while supping the draught-served Kingfisher (pint, £3.75).I opted for the Duchess Trio (£7) to start, comprising a flavoursome but dry sheek kebab, a delicate chicken samosa and smoky chicken tikka.The samosa, with its finely minced chicken and delicate, pouch-like appearance was probably the winner of the three, a fine and subtle alternative to the more overpowering chicken tikka and the rising spiciness of the sheek kebab.My partner’s spicy doughnut (£4.50) – one of the more eye-catching options on the menu – was an intriguing fusion of flavours.The thick filling in the fried casing made this traditional street dish feel slightly stodgy and heavy, though the undercurrent of spice lingered and made this an ideal sharer.If the starters were good, the main course brought things to an entirely new level.My Jaffna stuffed squid (£15.50) was inspired, with ringlets of squid packed with potato, prawns and spices making for a culinary cocktail of sheer pleasure.The seafood rice, also peppered with prawns, benefited from a coconut-rich curry sauce which stopped the meal becoming monotonous or too dry.My partner’s Nepalese momos (£11.50) were also a triumph and undoubtedly the nearest I’ve come to replicating the joy of first tastingthis delicacy in the foothills of the Annapurna mountain range.The row of six steamed dumplings were generously filled with spiced meat and had all the delicious moisture and residual warmth of this under-recognised speciality.A side dish of saag paneer (£4) was rich and creamy, with the soft paneer complemented by a lively spinach and garlic sauce.Each of the competing flavours vied for attention and the subtle excellence of each dish makes the Duchess of Delhi a ripe contender for a dinner with friends who don’t mind mixing and matching their food.The generous portions meant we were too full for dessert – despite the intriguing options available – and we elected instead to pay up.The bill may have come in at close to £60 but, the typical fiver on poppadoms aside, it was worth every penny.The Duchess of Delhi may not yet be the Queen of Cardiff’s Asian culinary scene – but it will soon provide a right royal level of competition.When you subscribe we will use the information you provide to send you these newsletters.
Although slightly more pricey than your average "Indian', once you enter the establishment you will see why. They have installed top of the range screens between each table and the staff...Gorgeous meal as ever.
