Limitless Restaurants Launches Lal Qilaa Express - Bringing the Soul of Old Delhi to the Modern Indian Food Court
/New Delhi, May , 2026- Limitless Restaurants, the hospitality group behind the Indian operations of global brands Papparoti India and Wok to Walk India, today announced the launch of its first homegrown brand, Lal Qilaa Express, a North Indian quick-service restaurant (QSR) concept that captures the legendary flavours, vibrant energy, and street-side spirit of Old Delhi in a fast, contemporary format. The flagship Lal Qilaa Express outlet is now open at Pacific Mall, Tagore Garden, New Delhi, with an exciting expansion roadmap across high-footfall malls, transit hubs, and food courts in the months ahead.
For years, Limitless Restaurants has been the trusted India partner for some of the world's most beloved F&B names, building Papparoti India, famous for its signature aromatic coffee buns, and Wok to Walk India, the global wok-tossed Asian street food chain. Lal Qilaa Express marks a delicious new chapter: a brand born in India, by Indians, for Indian palates. "We've spent years mastering what makes a global brand thrive in India. With Lal Qilaa Express, we flipped the lens—taking the food we grew up savouring, the food that defines Delhi, and infusing it with the systems, consistency, and craft of a world-class QSR," said Saumya Lohia Agarwal for Limitless Restaurants. "This is our heartfelt love letter to Old Delhi."
Lal Qilaa Express draws its name and inspiration from the majestic Lal Qilaa (Red Fort), the iconic monument overlooking Old Delhi's bustling galis, kebab houses, and parathe wali lanes for centuries. It brings this timeless magic to life with irresistible flavours like slow-cooked dal makhani, smoky tandoori kebabs, flaky parathas, butter-laden curries, fragrant biryanis, and chaats inspired by the legendary lanes of Chandni Chowk, Jama Masjid, and Daryaganj. The warm, lively interiors echo the brick-red hues of the Fort, the bazaar bustle, and the soul of Purani Dilli, reimagined for today's mall-goer—paired with a smartly engineered QSR experience for the time-pressed Indian food lover, delivering authenticity and generous portions without compromise.
Limitless Restaurants is an India-based hospitality company building and operating distinctive F&B brands across the country. It currently runs the India operations of Papparoti and Wok to Walk, and now dives into brand creation with Lal Qilaa Express, its first proprietary concept. The group's mission is simple: bring the world's best food to India and share India's best flavours with the world.
