How we score

Rating is the live Google average for each restaurant. Review volume measures how many diners have actually left a review, ranked against the others on this page. Confidence weighs the rating against that volume, so a high score built on thousands of reviews carries more weight than one built on a handful. Recency looks at how recently people are still reviewing, a sign the kitchen is still delivering consistently. No business can pay to change any of these numbers.

How much does vegetarian food cost in Delhi? (2026)

Prices vary depending on whether you’re ordering a quick South Indian breakfast or a full thali meal. Reviewer price-per-person data from Google gives a realistic sense of what to expect across the restaurants above.

JobTypical price
South Indian breakfast (idli, dosa, coffee)₹200-₹400 per person
Full thali or biryani meal₹400-₹800 per person
Larger group dinner with multiple dishes₹1,000-₹1,600 per person

Ranges compiled August 2026 from reviewer-reported price-per-person data on Google for the restaurants listed above.

Serving all of Delhi

These restaurants span Connaught Place, R.K. Puram, Greater Kailash, and Old Rajinder Nagar near Karol Bagh, so a pure vegetarian restaurant near you is realistically reachable across most of central and south Delhi. Connaught Place has the highest concentration, useful if you’re combining a meal with sightseeing or shopping in the area.

What to ask before you book a table

  • Is the entire kitchen pure vegetarian, or does it just have a vegetarian section on the menu?
  • Does the restaurant take reservations, or is it walk-in only during peak hours?
  • Is there a set thali or fixed-meal option, and what timings does it run?
  • Is parking available nearby, especially in busier areas like Connaught Place?
  • Are there any Jain or no-onion-no-garlic options if that matters for your group?
  • What are the peak wait times, so you can plan around them?

Frequently asked questions

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from public Google data. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner (badge and top placement), but that never changes another business’s score or position.

How did you choose these vegetarian restaurants?

We pulled every pure vegetarian restaurant with a real Google presence in Delhi, then ranked by rating, review volume, and how recently people are still reviewing. All of them here hold a 4.4 rating or higher despite very high review volumes.

Which of these is best for a full thali meal versus a quick breakfast?

Temple Street and Dasaprakash both run full thali and biryani menus suited to a sit-down meal. Karnataka Food Centre and J U G G E R N A U T lean toward South Indian breakfast dishes like dosa and idli, though all serve full meals throughout the day.

How often is this updated?

This page reflects Google ratings and review data verified in August 2026. We refresh listings periodically as new reviews come in.

The bottom line

Adyar Ananda Bhavan is the safest default given its top rating and sheer menu range, though expect noise during peak hours. If a slower-paced, air-conditioned meal matters more, Dasaprakash is the better fit, and Temple Street is the strongest pick if you’re after a full thali or biryani rather than a South Indian breakfast.
