Review of Delhi Diner Restaurant

Super-flavorful & MANY more vegan options than any...

Super-flavorful & MANY more vegan options than any other Indian restaurant! I love their vegan Navratan Korma & Palak Kofta and look forward to trying all the vegan options.

The owner encouraged us to ask for anything we want made vegan, so we just ordered Mutter Tofu (not on menu, tho' they do have Mutter Mushroom & Aloo Mutter). Just specify you want the vegan version & your tastebuds will know ecstasy. The owner adds to the menu on a regular basis in response to customer requests and his own creative flair. Delhi Diner roti is softer and more flavorful than I've had anywhere (makes me miss fluffy, crispy non-vegan Naan less). Can't wait to try their dosas and vegan mango lassi.

Background: Indian food is my favorite. I lived with an Indian family years ago. I have eaten at over a hundred vegan restaurants in 10+ states. I cook Indian food b/c I want it vegan, but I'm too busy lately, so I'm delighted to have discovered Delhi Diner (Albany) a week ago. I am kicking myself for resigning myself to the limited, often rather boring vegan options at other Indian restaurants. If you are vegan, don't be like me. Go to Delhi Diner.
