Our top 10 list scours the capital for the premium and most finessed flour-work and lands on the ten Italian restaurants in Delhi you can enclose your bets on. We’ll inform you though–extraordinary Italian isn’t a cuisine that does well on a budget, so nearly all of the entries on the list are on the chic side of the range.
1. Artusi Ristorante e Bar
One of the extraordinary restaurants in the country that’s as true-to-form trattoria as they come, Artusi is an Italian, fine-dining delight and has all the fixings of a romantic night for two. But while the intimate setting is a sell, the food actually deserves the bigger mention–particularly their Sigari Croccanti and Chittara Lobster.

2. Diva - The Italian Restaurant
It’s hard to go wrong with a chef at the helm with a reputation like Ritu Dalmia. Dalmia brings finesse and phenomenal flavours to most things on Diva’s fairly expansive menu, but we’re partial to their Salsiccia-filled ravioli, Gorgonzola apple walnut pizza and generally their entire antipasti spread. Make sure you have a glass of Till Death handy at every turn.

4. La Piazza
La Piazza is the foreword to fine Italian that most Delhi diners require. The affectionate, woody decor with a brick ceiling under private tables beneath archways makes it worthy of a festive dinner with a group and we advise the tenderloin carpaccio, lobster risotto and freshly made truffle-ricotta tortelloni are worth the heavy night-time meal.

5. Spago
Cute, floral chairs, specials scribbled on chalkboards and the sun streaming in from corner to corner the smooth wooden tables–Spago is a pretty lunch spot. We’d suggest starting with a Zuppa Asparagi, followed by their spinach cannelloni and Saltimbocca which is chicken stuffed with ham, olives and mozzarella, and ending with some Tiramisu for dessert.

Perbacco at the Lodhi is appropriate for a person with a more sophisticated palate.

A city favorite for a warm meal out, its central location, dancetty floors and plant-rife corners help Tonino stand the test of time. One of the exceptional places in the city that does an Italian breakfast, we’d suggest heading here for some A.M. panino, frittata or polenta.

Prego may be a bit out of the way, but the cheerful outdoor seating, and sun-soaked indoors more than make up for it. Apart from its variety colored linens and a wall of bright glass jars, Prego in addition has a menu to write home about. Our top players from it are the Arancini, the prawn and potato gnocchi and their roast rack of lamb.
