The Bottom Line

Delhi Highway Restaurant is a pure-vegetarian North Indian restaurant in Al Karama built around generous thalis, buffet-style meals and a broad à-la-carte menu. The Maharaja Thali, Chole Bhature, paneer tikka and chaat platter are the clearest starting points in the reviews. The thali can include a welcome drink, starters, chaat, mains and desserts, while some buffet visits included live pani puri and dosa stations.

The strongest feedback is about variety and hospitality. Diners describe smoky paneer tikka, authentic street-food flavours and hot, fresh servings; the spacious family seating also suits groups. Jain options are mentioned, which is useful if your party has specific dietary needs.

Fresh jalebi, sometimes served with rabdi, is another recurring dessert pick. The experience is not completely consistent. Some reviewers found the Saturday or weekend thali and buffet average, with one Saturday Thali taking almost 30 minutes to arrive.

Preparation issues were also reported with soya chap and other platter items. Weekend parking around Al Karama can be difficult, and nearby paid spaces fill quickly. Ask about card charges and cash discounts before settling the bill, and arrive early or reserve during busy periods.
