Here is a list of some of the famous mouth watering street food places/restaurants/stalls in Delhi.
Bittoo Tikki Wala (BTW)
This might be the most famous tikki walla around the city. The tikki served here has set a benchmark for all the other similar Tikki wallas.

Bombay Bhelpuri
When in South Extension, don’t dare to miss this one. A reasonably nicely priced snack to have but do not get fixed up in by many other fake Bombay Bhelpuri wallas in the market. Sev Puri is the one to definitely go for. It is located at G7 near Mc Donald’s, South Ex-2, Delhi.
Shree Balaji Chaat Bhandar
