Delhish Vegan Kitchen

Definitely one of the best places in Oxford for (vegan) Indian food. The chaats are delightful and I recommend getting a selection of different ones and just share them with a group. You can get curries as well, but it's the chaats that make this place unique. They are all different and flavourful. Would also definitely recommend the paratha as a side. The only thing one of us didn't like as the turmeric coffeel, but the chai tea was so good it even convinced a chai hater. Smoothies are also highly recommended.

Super affordable too. Easy to keep coming back to try everything, because the prices are totally reasonable.

Restaurant is run by a lovely women who cooks all the food herself. She came out a few times to ask how we were and was more than happy to talk about the food and explain what she wants with the restaurant. Started as a small stall on a food market, now running a restaurant, to show that vegan food can be lovely and is not what many people expect.

On the website, it says "booking", which made me think that you have to prebook. Not the case as they accept "walk ins".
The place was very cold with no proper heating. I had my coat and my scarf on to keep warm.
The "Thali" whilst looks very big and lots of variety, was a disappointment. On close inspection, the Raita which is the yogurt condiment was no more than a teaspoon. The Roti was like a crisp bread. The potato curry with aubergine looked nice but the aubergines were hard and not cooked through.Tastewise, full of garam masala.There was one small onion bhaji and a fairly big samosa. Had to ask for rice as it was supposed to have been included. The rice pudding had some sort of green gloppy stuff on it and if it wasn't specified as rice pudding then it would have passed for an unrecognisable dish.Tried a bit to taste it. It wasn't even sweet enough to be classed as a Dessert.
I think this place is probably operated by someone who spent a few months in one of the Ashrams in India and returned to UK and decided to open a restaurant - AngloIndian is the word that comes to mind. Service is poor. Had to wait considerably long time for the order to be taken, for the food to arrive and get the bill. Eventually went up to the till to pay. Paid around £25.00.
Response to Reply: No tikka or korma because that it not Gujarati cuisine in any case. Having said this, if it was meant to be Gujarati then the chef has a long way to go unless it was intentionally flavoured to please the "Non-indian/Gujarati" palate.
Unfortunately, the verdict remains: Poor service (more time spent by the waiting staff washing up at the bar than seeing who needs to be served or taking orders), Poor quality food (crispy roti, raw aubergines, non-descript dessert which was passed off as Rice Pudding).

I’m not a vegan (partner is), but I found this to be among the best Indian food I’ve had. We got the “Thali”, a feast of flavors and a delectable variety of 12 different dishes. Each were unique and several included complimentary top ups. The samosas (not pictured) were special as well.

The food alone would make this an absolute 5 star recommendation — on top of this, the service and hospitality by the owner and her staff is next level. Highly recommend!!

An excellent place for vegans. The chef is wonderful and the staff are really really friendly. Feels like in India. Lovely to be there. Brought some clay mugs which were really good.

Absolutely lovely place!!!!
We came in, so jet lagged from traveling & they really took care of us.
The owner let us know about the dishes and we ordered a sampling which was very special to try every homemade dish they had.
The samosas at the top of the meal were among the best I have ever had in my life.
This is an incredibly well curated small restaurant & it is clear lots of love goes into every dish!

My two daughters and I loved this place! It reminded me of travelling in India. The flavours were beautiful, and the staff are so helpful and friendly. We wanted to try everything, and had a lovely evening.

Very authentic Indian food. Best Indian iv eaten in the UK. I was so impressed. The ethos was also focused on local sustainable food options clearly grounded in the owners true values. And the lady who does all the cooking was kind, friendly and welcoming. I felt like we'd been invited into her home. Will be going back many times.

Great Place! I really enjoyed my time there, especially since all the staff were so nice! The food was delicious, and seemed quite authentic, although that meant it was a bit too spicy for me. However, when the owner noticed I was finding it too hot, she offered to make another curry, with some vegan yoghurt on top to cool it down, and that really made my day! It had a very homely feel, and my vegan friend said it was very nice to just have an all vegan place, so she didn't have to worry about whether there were animal products when ordering. I would definitely go there again!
