About this spot
Delhi Masala brings the chaotic energy of Old Delhi straight to San Telmo's Defensa Street with bold, spice-forward curries that cut through Argentina's rich steak culture. Locals flock here for their butter chicken, which is less sweet than typical Argentine versions and packed with a tangy tomato base, alongside crispy naan that rivals any street vendor in Palermo.
💡 Tips before you go
- Ask for your curry to be served with extra garlic naan to soak up the rich gravies.
- Order the tandoori chicken early as it often sells out before dinner service.
- Bring cash or a card, but expect long waits during Friday and Saturday nights.
