Restaurants in Katwaria Sarai
24 listings · From dhabas to date-night spots
Katwaria Sarai punches above its weight for food, mostly because it has to — a few thousand students eating out most nights of the week keeps the market honest on both price and quality. You'll find everything from ₹40 chole kulche carts near the bus stand to sit-down South Indian spots that fill up by 8 PM.
The neighbourhood splits fairly cleanly into two eating patterns: quick, cheap, and fast for weekday lunches between classes, and slightly slower, sit-down spots for evenings. Most places listed here deliver within a 2 km radius, which covers IIT Delhi hostels, IMI, and the surrounding PGs.
