Amaranta is one of those fantasic restaurants in the city no one actively talks about, but we all know its waiting for us with a menu full of scrumptious offerings, prepared with care, love and obsession - the three attributes one has come to expect (and appreciate) of The Oberoi Group of Hotels.We went there for lunch on Sunday, and were greeted with a warm, COVID Protocol compliant welcome. All the servers were wearing face shields, masks and gloves. We were handed envelopes to store our masks safely - a gesture I absolutely love. We were short on time so ordered the main course only - their version of Butter Chicken, which is four types of chicken served with the gravy on the side, and a Lamb Biryani, which was prepared South Indian (but not Hyderabadi) style.Before our order was served, we were treated with a bread basket featuring Amarantas take on a Focaccia, Soft Bun and Pasty Puff, served with Gunpowder, Curry Leaf Powder and Olive Oil. The breads were truly impressive - fresh and flavourful. An excellent start to the afternoon.The Butter Chicken (or Dilli as they call it here) served at Amaranta is one of my absolute favourite foods. Its always on point, the smoked Chicken, the Chicken Kofta, the popcorn chicken and the chicken strips come together with their fresh, rich gravy to offer, what I believe, is amongst the best standalone Indian dishes in the country. I say that after obsessing over Butter Chicken across my travels across India for about a decade. This is a must order, every time.The Lamb Briyani featured a lovely medly of flavours, with well cooked lamb and was served with a lovely mixed raita. Standalone, the Biryani was packed with flavours which will take you to a Chefs table somewhere between Chennai and Cochin, thats how my limited palette decoded it at least.When I mentioned obsession previously, I wasnt only referring to the what goes on in the kitchen. I absolutely loved how the server took their time to serve my Beer on the table. Most servers across establishments pour as much beer as they can into the glass, and walk away. Not here. The server pour the beer slowly, reducing the flow from the bottle to the glass basis the height of the froth, till the pint was empty. Its a very small detail but a good showcase of the obsession towards a great experience.While I am yet to savour their seafood delicacies and a bunch of other bits from the menu in this lifetime, I can safely conclude saying that Amaranta is one of the best dining experiences in and around the capital. A must visit!

A wonderful place for a date night or a dinner with your family. From the bread basket to papadum to the amuse bouche before and during the meal, you are going to love the flavors and inventiveness of the dishes. Try any of the seafood dishes, and the andhra dal with apams. The service is absolutely amazing, with the staff happy to go the extra mile.

Amaranta is one of the four restaurants of Oberoi hotel, where they focus on Indian cuisine. Ambience was super premium, service was average, cutlery was super premium, starters were average, signature drink was below average, but desserts were awesome. Highly recommended for fruit jalebi and plush ambience only.

The never go again place. Went with high expectations and was a total disappoinment right from ambience to food and service. We ordered a three coarse meal and it started with surprising miniature appetizers and didnt realize when we reached to main coarse. This place was no more good than any banquet hall to me. Disappointing. Not Recommended!

Great tasting menu with dishes from various parts of India. They also serve a platter of variety of breads, pickles and spice powders while you wait for the food. The ambience and hospitality is phenomenal as youd expect from all of Oberoi hotel. I tried the veg Punjabi platter. The food arrived after some wait but tasted really good. The mango Lassi was awesome as well. Everything is made fresh to order so you can really taste the ingredients. It is like a party in your mouth.

Very well cooked modern Indian fine dining. Service was exceptional as expected from Oberoi. The restaurant unfortunately was completely empty. This kind of affected the overall ambience, wish there were more people around. The chef is clearly trying to ride the regional Indian food revival bandwagon. But he does not disappoint. The butter chicken, which I ordered quite apprehensively, turned out be an all star. One of the best butter chickens I have ever eaten.The breads are paired with aromatic dry spice mixes and evoo. A standout concept. The galouti was decent. The prawn was well-cooked but I found it a little too European in taste for an Indian restaurant. Two things that I found pretty terrible were the tamarind gelato and the bacon egg appam.Overall its a great fine dining option in Delhi.
