Discover the Essence of Indian Cuisine in Ottawa

At Deccan Delights, we bring the tastes of South India directly to your table—tastes that are lively and aromatic. Spicy, coconut-based gravies, along with the harmony of tangy, spicy, and savory flavors, make South Indian cuisine a sensory delight. Our menu is a tribute to the five southern states—Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, and Kerala—together known as the Deccan Plateau.

  • Be it crispy fragrant biryanis on the coast, every preparation has been made with love by using the best ingredients and old-age recipes. We try to bring you that feel of home-cooked comfort in every bite.
  • Our passionate team of South Indian chefs pours their heart into every dish, which are the flavors of their childhood- the fiery spices of Andhra, creamy coconut curries of Kerala, and the comforting tang of Tamil Nadu. Expertise and passion for their craft shine through in every meal.

What our Customers Say

A nice and cozy place for a tasteful bite of South Asian cuisine. The place is well laid out, considering it was originally a garage from the looks of it. The food is delicious and the servers are hard-working, professional and friendly. However, I would have liked it if the management had gone the extra mile to highlight in their menu books.
Chowdhury Zaman
The food was really delicious and perfect spice level. We ordered butter chicken, a mutton (lamb) dish and naan. Very good portions. We could have brought some home but my husband loved the food so much, he ate everything at the restaurant. The price was very reasonable. The restaurant was clean. The service was great.
