Daitchi - Asian restaurant in New Delhi - South, India

Daitchi restaurant, in south ex main market. It has been here since more than 3 decades now. I have costed this place for dinner few weeks back and the review for the same is below: Location: It is located in the main South ex market, so parking is not an issue the place has ample paid parking. Ambiance: It is an old school restaurant the ambiance is decent nothing special but comfortable and clean. Service: The staff is polite and fast, they have suggestions and most of them are quite good. Drinks: The place does not have liquor so only soft drinks are available. Food: For soup we had Hot & Sour chicken which was nice (we ordered one by two the quantity was good), for starters we had Drums of heaven: the same was tasty, juicy chicken drumsticks which were nicely made. For main course we had shredded chicken five spice with Szechwan fried rice this was a very good pick the chicken is not a gravy one but was good with the rice. They also serve hot garlic sauce with the drumsticks. Cost: The cost for our meal was 2041INR including service charge and taxes which is not so bad as we were three people. Overall the food and service is nice, the place has been serving food since 3 decades and one should give it a try if In the area. Though I would have preferred is they had beer in the menu but it is a family restaurant so not serving the same.

This restaurant has been an all time favourite since 1998... I was really disappointed on my last visit... The food was not upto the mark... We ordered Crispy Rice Soup, Vegetable Manchurian and Daitchi Special Rice with Black Mushrooms... The black mushrooms were chopped so fine that there was no taste at all, also the rice was not properly cooked and had no flavour... Manchurian gravy just tasted like water... absolutely tasteless... Soup was good but the crispy rice served with it was too chewy and not crunchy at all... I reached a little early when the restaurant was still closed, the employee who opened the lock was very rude and did not reply properly when I asked how long will it take to open... Overall the experience was not so good for the first time in all these years...

Some one told me this restaurant is a first Chinese restaurant in Delhi. Prawn curry is awesome specially size of prawns, chicken dish also good.

The restaurant has must try veg options if you like Japanese or chinese cuisine or even if you would like to give it a shot, it's totally worth it.

I am extremely disappointed. I have been visiting this restaurant regularly for over 25 years and have always recommended it to friends and family. I have always loved their food and appreciated the fact that unlike the North Indian Chinese offered at other restaurants, their food has a more authentic taste. This time around we decided to do home delivery. Unfortunately, the food turned out to be the same indifferent taste, served at mediocre establishments all over the city. I called to complain, to question whether there was a change in chef. But was assured that that was not the case. So I've decided one slip over a 25 year period is excusable. I will definitely be giving them the opportunity to make amends as they have assured me they will.

Delicious so tasty i recommended chicken hot n sour soup

Delivery is toooooo bad. Took toooooo long to deliver. They should have asked for direction at the time of the start of journey but instead asked after theyve gone out. i Shared live location n what not but took ages. I ordered at 7pm n they told me 40 mins but it reached me at 9 pm.

Authentic Chinese restaurant. The food is fresh and we'll prepared, Ordered Pork fried chilly, assorted vegetables in hot garlic sauce and veggie chowmien. The portions are generous, order one dish than you normally would order.
