If you are at the Oberoi, I like 360, which also draws a moneyed local crowd (often hilarious to watch).
You may be right about Bukhara, we'll see, but friends of mine who are definitely not Fodorites but food writers and chefs speak very highly of the food there as well as at Dum Pukht. They have warned me it's a tourist scene but we'll be there for the food not the crowd. We'll see - in India for two weeks so will have lots of chances to compare to other places around Delhi and across the North.
