Most expensive restaurants in India

At the Oberoi’s 360 degrees, the Delhi snob-haunt, on the other hand, the “Grand 360 Special”, a platter comprising sushi, sashimi and maki (six pieces each) comes considerably lower at Rs 1,900 and you can have a go at the likes of salmon, tuna, scallops, sweet shrimp, and marinated mackerel.

While this would be a meal in itself, at the newly-opened Shangri-La’s signature 19 Oriental Avenue, just two pieces of tuna sushi set you back by Rs 950, while a platter of tuna belly sashimi (five pieces) comes for Rs 1,600.

If you are determined to spend, another option could be the various tasting menus, increasingly becoming fashionable. That is, if you don’t mind shelling out in the range of Rs 1,500 per person for bhindi and dressed up bhel (Veda, Delhi), or Rs 4,500 without the wine (Zodiac Grill, Mumbai).

Then, there are places which charge you only for the pleasure of allowing you into their haloed precincts. At Orient Express, Delhi, the ‘train restaurant’, for instance, you pay Rs 2,395 for a frankly mediocre four-course meal.

And Bukhara, despite its uncomfortable seating, or probably because of it, will charge you in the range of Rs 3,500 per person, though the Sikandari raan is rightfully its most expensive dish at Rs 1,450.

my first meal in india (delhi) was at a very upscale restaraunt. i was taken there by a french import/export businessman who thought nothing of the prices. in all, the meal did not cost more than 20 dollars (five years ago) but to me that seemed a small fortune! tasty, but not that tasty.
