Delicious

It’s a close run thing for the best restaurant in the centre, but for me Delicious just edges it, Chill Grill has the presentation and is nicer, Diaspora has the ambience, Crown Bakery is consistently good but the food lives up to the name at Delicious and that edges it for me, especially when they do curry.
Sometimes nothing else will do, and you need a Curry! Delicious does a wide variety of African and European food, all of it good, but it’s owned by an Indian/African couple and it is the curry I go in for, or better still have delivered!
Like most centre of town restaurants they don’t stay open late into the evening, they say they open until 7, but close if it’s quiet (even if you’ve called them to say you’re coming grr), so it’s not exactly the place to assuage the late night beer-induced nibbles, but with a modicum of planning it’s pretty close, so if you’re missing the taste of ‘home’ try the Biryinani (40,000).
Delivery is for a minimum order of 50,000Le, and they can be persuaded to deliver as far as Spur-loop for a reasonable order.

5* because : The best curry in Freetown, delivered.

Delicious

Probably the best of the restaurants that we visited and hope to do so again. The food was better than some of the others, the only thing that should be improved is the way the waiting and other staff present themselves and their ability to smile and hold conversation, if that is added to the mix, they should go noted as Freetown's most dynamic restuarant.

Good Luck to them, they would remain at the top.

Sorry to see you go..

I'm sorry to say I've changed my rating from 5 to 3 stars for Delicious. It's still clean and efficient but the food is now decidedly average, what made it special for me was the Indian food which was superb; but the chef has changed. My favourite curry location is no more and they now serve slightly over-priced familiar local dishes.
Still worth a visit for a clean quick meal though, better than most, but no longer best.

Only Indian Food in Freetown and it is indeed DELICIOUS (and cheap!)

I was very very excited when I learnt about delicious and its indian food, and since then I went almost every other day! I tried a lot of the vegetarian dishes and sides on the menu and was never disappointed!

The food is very good, reasonably priced and the staff is really nice...In addition, they deliver which is great! Only wished they opened for the evenings but they close at 6-7pm!
