An impromptu visit to a restaurant we’ve long admired but never visited and it did not disappoint. From the moment we walked through the door receiving the warmest welcomes and smiles from both Arjeet and Rehana waiting to show us to our table. Both witty, charming and helping us to choose. We settled for the lamb bhuna, tarka dhal & saag paneer and it wash divine. The flavours and spice combination we’ll definitely be back and urge others to visit!

Amazing, so authentic but modern too. Really yummy food. Friendly staff, didn't have to wait for anything as it felt like everything arrived just as we were ready for it. Portions are generous too! The meal deal is a bargain and I cannot wait to go back. Thanks for a lovely evening.

My partner booked us into Dil’se for my birthday and it was absolutely amazing. Staff are very good, welcoming and attentive. The food was a level above exceptional! The crispy pakora, the spicey sauce was just heaven, the best pakora/sauce mix I’ve ever had! Honestly incredible. The mains were absolutely delicious, crazy delicious and that Peshwari Naan, help ma boab that naan ! Totally the best naan we’ve ever had, my partner and I agreed this was an absolutely fantastic meal, that naan, that naan bread, if you like the thick doughy uncooked stuff, thankfully none of that here. Clean toilets, nice temperature throughout the restaurant, very pleasant staff. I opted to take some of mine back home, doggie back if you like, and noticed the carry out bag was from a sister restaurant in the Ferry that we’d been to a couple of years ago and had a great night there too. Tayside is blessed, I’m a Weegie who had a great weekend in Dundee including this utterly delicious restaurant! Thank you team Dil’Se from the heart

We had a fantastic dining experience at Dil’Se! As a lactose-free couple, we often struggle to find restaurants that cater well to our dietary needs, but the team here went above and beyond to accommodate us. The staff were incredibly attentive, knowledgeable, and made sure we had plenty of delicious options to choose from. We went for the 19.95 meal deal which came with an appetiser, starter, main and choice of nan or rice. The food itself was excellent—fresh, flavorful, and well presented. It’s clear that a lot of care goes into both the menu and the service. Whether you have dietary restrictions or not, Dil’Se is a great choice for a wonderful meal. We’ll definitely be back!

Great food and service in Dil Se. So nice to have it back. The food was even better under the new owners than it was before. Was good to see lots of tables occupied on a Thursday night. Pay a visit. Large menu to choose from. You won’t be disappointed
