About Nu Delhi Restaurant Lounge
At St George's Market, Nu Delhi pulls off something rare in Belfast: a modern, spotlit room serving Indian food that locals who grew up eating the real thing call the best they have had. The cocktails lead the menu in sheer volume — 75 mentions across reviews is not a coincidence — and the kitchen backs them up with Lamb Rogan Josh with pilau rice, chicken jalfrezi, fish pakora and lamb chops that people write home about. The garlic cheese naan melts, apparently, and the poppadoms arrive with dips worth the detour alone. A dedicated vegetarian page on the menu means nobody is squinting through the small print, and staff have been known to bring a table lamp over when the dim lighting makes reading difficult.
Nu Delhi Restaurant Lounge earns its romantic reputation through both atmosphere and a serious wines and cocktails — the kind of place where a dinner for two tends to extend well past dessert.
In the last 90 days, Nu Delhi Restaurant Lounge has drawn 46 substantial written reviews (50+ characters of genuine feedback) — recent momentum that is one of the signals behind its place on the hot list.

Lamb Rogan Josh, Chicken Tikka, Fish Pakora, and Chicken Jalfrezi are named repeatedly in recent reviews as cooked to a standard that draws diners back — one visitor from Glasgow called it the best curry they'd ever had.
Attentive, warm staff
Alwin and Divya are named for checking in throughout the meal, solving problems without fuss (replacing a dish immediately when it didn't meet expectations), and bringing a table lamp to help a diner read the menu.
Long, expertly made cocktail list
