Le Cirque at The Leela Palace New Delhi has reopened in a renewed avatar, reaffirming its place as one of the capital’s most iconic dining destinations. Long celebrated for its French-Italian culinary heritage, the restaurant has been reimagined with a fresh design and a menu that balances tradition with contemporary creativity.
The philosophy behind the revival is simple: dining here should be an art form. The new menu reflects this vision, combining classical European techniques with seasonal produce sourced from across the world. For the first time, guests can experience Le Cirque during the day, with an elegant lunch service offering an à la carte selection. Evenings are reserved for a more theatrical affair, with a tasting menu crafted to engage every sense.
The redesigned interiors complement the culinary direction. Rich details—plum and gold glass tiles, sculptural lighting, textured fabrics, and warm wood panelling—create a setting that is intimate yet dramatic. The restaurant unfolds through different spaces, from wine-tasting tables and the grand main dining room to private alcoves designed for exclusivity. Seating is intentionally limited to preserve an atmosphere of refinement and comfort.
This reimagined Le Cirque represents more than just a relaunch. It is a statement of intent, positioning itself once again as a global culinary landmark in New Delhi—one that blends heritage and innovation to create an unforgettable fine dining experience.
