11 Most Romantic Dinner Places India Has to Offer

3. Rim Naam, The Oberoi — New Delhi

Rim Naam at The Oberoi in New Delhi is often named among the city’s most romantic restaurants because of its unique setting. The dining pavilion sits over a koi pond and is surrounded by lush planting, making the whole experience feel removed from the city’s bustle. The atmosphere is quietly theatrical — dim lamps, gentle water sounds, and staff trained to anticipate small needs. The menu focuses on Southeast Asian dishes, with fragrant curries and well-balanced preparations that suit a slow, shared meal. For an anniversary or a proposal, consider a preplanned set menu and ask about a waterside table when reserving. A noted travel guide lists Rim Naam for its outdoor pavilion and immersive ambience, especially during the evening when lights reflect on the pond. If the weather is pleasant, arriving at sunset will bring warm light and a gentle transition into the candlelit hours that make the place special.
