I went to Mr Chef with a friend and honestly... it feels like a hidden gem in Deltona! As soon as we walked in, the customer service stood out right away. The two young guys at the front were so kind and welcoming--it just felt good to be there. I'm big on customer service, and they really nailed it. The food was sooo good. Somehow they made vegetables and tofu taste amazing (which is not always easy lol). I loved the mango lassi, and the tofu dish we got--it had this orange sauce--was seriously delicious. I also liked how it felt very family-oriented and comfortable, not stuffy at all. I'll definitely be going back with my family and trying more things next time. For now, I can just say I really enjoyed it and I'm glad we found it! read more

It is a rare find when a spot in Florida can actually quiet the craving for a New York City staple, but Mr. Chef Indian Cuisine does exactly that. As someone who truly misses the level of food at Gandhi Cafe on Bleecker Street, I was skeptical--especially looking at the location. But like they say, you can never judge a book by its cover. I would never have guessed that this spot would match the quality and authentic taste of the elite Indian cuisine I'm used to from NYC. The food and the vibe here fill that void perfectly. The moment I saw they had the red onion for the samosas, I was hooked immediately; it's those small, authentic details that let you know the kitchen actually knows what they're doing. The spice profiles are deep and well-balanced, providing that specific soul and heat that is usually missing from Central Florida's dining scene. If you're looking for a place that prioritizes flavor and precision over a flashy exterior, this is the best Indian cuisine I've found in the area. read more

I was working around the area and found this place in Yelp. Went in and got a table, asked the very polite server which chicken entree he would recommend, he replied "with or without curry", and I chose with, of course. He recommended the chicken with mango curry (Chicken Amwala in the menu). Omg... it was so delicious... This was the best Indian food I've had in my life. I would eat the mango curry every day if I could. Crazy good. The restaurant is so far from my home, but I will drive to eat here again. As a bonus, the place is super neat and clean, service was great, everyone smiling, not a single bad note. read more

Spectacular spectacular Indian fare with exemplary hospitality. Who knew this would could ever be a thing? In the new wing of the old Winn Dixie plaza, really? There's serious eats here that make so many others look and feel and taste like they're calling it in. I mean I don't know how they're doing it, but they do it. And that's all that matters. I went in thinking this would be mid at best on a curious yelpie foodie adventure and now I'm rethinking whether or not my favorite Indian place is as good. They're that good. read more

Went out for dinner after prepping for a conference. A little hesitant to go to an Indian restaurant in Deltona but don't be fooled, they know what they're doing. In this small restaurant their dishes packs a punch. The goat chettinadu was surprisingly different from anything I've tasted. Seems like they had southern Indian/kerala regional dishes. Great place to stop if you're craving Indian cuisine!! read more

Mr. Chef - We wanted something different and found this gem. Great service and great food. Would definitely return. - Indian Near Me - Deltona, Florida

Great food and great service. The space is small, with some tables outside, but the flavors have no limit. I ordered several things, two curries, a chicken biriyani, samosas and garlic naan. It was a nice meal, and thankfully the flavors and quality were all present. The weakest point was the dessert, but since the food was great, I am not taking it into account. Please read the menu before coming, take this as a friendly tip. read more

What a gem we found. Normally we have to drive 45 mins to a decent Indian place to eat. This place is amazing. The appetizers are great, the naan is fabulous and the butter chicken and lamb tikka masala dishes are amazing. The ambience is simple and nice. Service was great. Family ran and super friendly. I'm so glad we found this place so close to home. Definitely will be regulars for sure. Thanks for the amazing experience. read more

I discovered this place driving home from work and not wanting to cook one Friday afternoon. I ordered the garlic and buttered naan along with butter chicken (mild) and chicken masala (medium). I could not leave out trying some biryanis rice(mild). I preordered so I would not have to wait too long. Everything turned out delicious and savory. The employees were helpful and the restaurant was nice and clean. They were attentive and polite and made sure to let me know how long it was going to take when I arrived. read more

This is a local gem. The food is Authentic Indian cuisine, with good service, and excellent food. My favorite dish, by far, is the Butter Chicken. You just can't go wrong! The garlic naan pairs perfectly and the medium spice level is more than enough for my spicy-food-loving palate. The chicken tandoori is also pretty good. read more

Food and service was great. Place was very clean and inviting. The plaza where it's located is a little run down so I didn't know what to expect but I truly enjoyed it and will definitely go back. read more

The restaurant was cute and had a really good vibe to it. I called and placed an order for pick up but it seemed my order wasn't started until I arrived so I ended up sitting in the restaurant for about 20 minutes waiting for my food. The food being served smelled great, but my food didn't taste as good as it smelled. I prefer The Great Indian Kitchen in DeLand. 3 stars because of the long wait and disappointment with food. read more

Some friends invited me to lunch here and none of us had ever been so we gave it a try. It had great Yelp and Google ratings. Upon entering the staff were very friendly. We ordered the naan bowl which had three types of naan and came with some dipping sauce. Each type was phenomenal. Soft and fluffy but also pieces of crunchy bits. I ordered chicken that was made in the tandoori. It was absolutely amazing. The spice level can be anywhere from mild to extremely spicy, just ask your server to help gauge what works best for you! We will definitely be going back. The staff were great from start to finish. The restaurant was extremely clean. The portions were LARGE! What a great hidden gem in West Volusia! read more

Great food!! Full of flavors, with just the right amount of spice. Not too heavy (fatty), but very filling. My new favorite Indian food/comfort food. I definitely recommend this restaurant. read more

Absolutely fantastic Indian food! The food is delicious and the staff are friendly. The prices are fair and the portions are big compared to other Indian restaurants I have been to. Which makes great leftovers and taste great the next day! It's a small place kind of hidden but not a restaurant to miss! read more

Where is the button for 6 stars? Absolutely phenomenal restaurant, and close to home! This is going to be my new weekly spot. Seated immediately upon entering. It's not huge, but there's a decent amount of tables and booths. Waiter came over fast for drinks and apps. The menu is solid with plenty of traditional options with the main menu consisting of chicken, goat, lamb etc. we started with some Chutney which looked small, but went a long way. For my meal I went with Chicken vindaloo. The food comes in 2 bowls. Basmati rice in one, curry in the other. LOTS of food. Some could probably share the portion size. It was loaded with perfectly cooked white meat. The amount of heat was perfection. I got a side of garlic naan. Just fyi. 1 order is plenty for 2 people as it is cut into 4 pieces. Service was top notch. Efficiency and friendly. Best part about it, the price!!! Only $14.99 for my meal. Absolute steal! I can't wait to go back. read more

After all of the hype we have heard about this place we finally tried the new Indian restaurant. The restaurant smells amazing when walking in and the food was prepared quickly. Everything we ordered was delicious! The portion sizes were great, if you are getting appetizers I would say you can share one meal with two people. We had no leftovers and will definitely be back! read more

Do not order the butter chicken. Extremely dissatisfied, it's almost sweet not anything you would expect. The rest of our order was amazing. I would go back, but not order butter chicken. read more

With Indian food you should always be skeptical even if there are good reviews, however Mr.Chef exceeded its great reviews. The server was great - she was knowledgeable about the menu and went into detail on each dish when helping us decide. The food was exceptional, huge portions and extremely fresh. The restaurant is clean and the staff was very friendly and attentive. You can tell that a lot of love is being poured into this restaurant. read more

This place is fire! Deltona needed a place like this! Warm comforting food and a cute little setting! I've been twice now and would highly recommend it. You have to get some naan no matter what you order. The garlic is so delicious! If you want good, Indian food full of spice, this is it! My food has always been ready when I order and the staff are friendly and accommodating! read more

Been going in here occasionally and there food is getting better and better, and there getting there orders out on time.

I enjoy their food, as always. However, with the main dishes, although the food is tasty (i.e, the sauce and the meat), veggies are completely lacking. Each dish should have peppers, onions, etc available as a choice. read more

Food and Service was very good. I will definitely be going back. Our server was very polite and helpful with our menu choice.

Excellent food and service. Had a table of 9 and everything we ordered came out perfectly. Will definitely be back.

Excellent Indian food in Deltona!! A much needed presence in this community where we lack a lot of variety in cuisine. I've dined with Mr. Chef twice now. Once to-go and once dine-in and I've been impressed each time. The food is delicious and portions generous. The pricing is great especially considering I get two servings from one meal. The portion is enough to eat dinner and have lunch next day. That's great especially in the current economy. The service each time has been excellent as well. You can tell it's a family run business and they care deeply about making this restaurant shine. I plan to continue coming back and I'm really hoping the rest of Deltona and the surrounding areas get wise to this place because they really deserve to thrive. read more

Moving to Deltona from Winter Park, we noticed there wasn't a diverse type of restaurants here. Located in the Deltona Plaza, Mr. Chef Indian Cuisine opened today, April 17th, 2024. We love good Indian food and had to try it out! You can call into order or order directly on their website. Ordering on their website is an absolute breeze. The menu is very easy to read and understand and it is laid out in a very aesthetically pleasing manner. The prices are what I would except and very in line with food in this area. It's definitely pricing that I would expect from an Indian Restaurant. I placed my order online for paneer, butter, masala, butter chicken, butter naan, and garlic green chili naan. Next to the butter chicken, I asked for it to be spicy. The website said that it would be ready in 30 minutes. About 15 minutes or so after ordering, we were packing up to leave the house when I received a call stating the food was done. Upon arriving, the restaurant was easy to see in the plaza as it has a large red sign. It is on the far right side of the plaza. I went inside to retrieve my order. The inside is very clean and modern. The lady behind the counter was very nice and the service was quick. The food smelled divine! I couldn't wait to dive in after opening it! Everything was so delicious! The butter chicken had spice, like we asked for. It had great flavor. Both of the naan's were delicious. The garlic green chili one definitely has some heat behind it - the flavor is amazing. The paneer butter masala was very mild in spice but incredibly flavorful. I'm so happy that Deltona has an Indian Restaurant now and even more excited that the food is so delicious! We'll definitely be back! read more
