January 2025: Updating my review since I've now visited the new location! As always, Delhi Magic brings the flavor and quality that I love and miss from my years living in New Delhi, India. The food was fresh, the same excellent taste as before, and the service was kind. Looking forward to future meals here and I encourage you to try this restaurant. Try the roti, get the bhuna mutton, and order it "medium" spicy. Enjoy! 🇮🇳🍛
March 2024: Re-reviewing Delhi Magic: The magic is now here. 😊😊The garlic naan is tasty, the basmati rice is fluffy, and the Bhuna Chicken and Bhuna Mutton were worth it - we felt the heat when ordering "forte"🌶️. Interestingly the sauce seemed different between the two dishes, with the chicken dish feeling spicier and there were more tomato & onion pieces in the sauce. The lamb was soft and succulent. The last time I reviewed in October 2023 I was underwhelmed, unimpressed, and uninterested in trying again. Today I can rescind that review and tell you that if you want Indian food in Rio, Delhi Magic is worth a try. Now, it is not as authentic as what I used to enjoy when I lived in Delhi, India, but with the ingredients available and the spices packed into the sauces, I'm leaving Delhi Magic feeling satisfied and having enjoyed my favorite spicy cuisine. I do suggest trying this location, and I want to know from the kitchen - which peppers are you using to deliver the spicy heat? Bhut Jolokia? Also, are you using yogurt in the sauces? Are you using Kashmiri red chili powder to get the bright red color? Thanks for a tasty Sunday...

" Disappointing Experience at Windsor Plaza Copacabana." I recently stayed at Windsor Plaza Copacabana and wanted to share my experience. Upon arrival, the reception staff seemed distracted and unhelpful, not providing clear information about early check-in.Despite booking through American Express, I faced unexpected charges of 750 reais (about $200), which was surprising as I believed everything had been pre-paid. The front desk insisted on seeing my Brazilian passport, disregarding my American documents. The room quality was below expectations for a 4-star hotel. It was dark with an unpleasant smell and a constant noise from the bathroom. Contrary to what I was led to believe during booking, breakfast was not included, and the pricing information provided by the staff was inconsistent and confusing.However, it wasn't all negative. The restaurant staff and cleaning personnel were incredibly kind and helpful, truly the highlight of my stay. The location in Copacabana is beautiful, though the immediate area felt somewhat unsafe.In conclusion, while there were some positive aspects, mainly due to the wonderful staff, the overall experience was disappointing. I had expected more from a reputed 4-star hotel and regret to say that I won't...
