Fodorites make pilgrimages to Bukhara for some reason. It is a pretty good restaurant, but it's not the best place to eat in Delhi by a long shot (and the rest of the restaurants in the hotel are completely forgettable). Sunday evening should be OK for traffic, so about 30 min, I would think - but one never knows.
If you are at the Oberoi, I like 360, which also draws a moneyed local crowd (often hilarious to watch).
