Yen Press licensed the manga and describes the story:
What do you get when you beat dungeon adventures and culinary manga? You get Delicious in the Dungeon, where we find our group of adventurers on a quest to save a lost member of their party while figuring out how to survive on the food the dungeon provides. When young adventurer Laios and his companions are attacked and beaten by a dragon deep in a dungeon, the group loses all their money and food. They're eager to get right back, but there's just one problem: if they depart without food or coins to speak of, they're sure to eat it all along the way! But Laios comes up with a brilliant idea: “Let's eat the monsters!” Slimes, basilisks, mimics, and even dragons…no one is safe from the appetites of these dungeon-crawling gourmands !
Yoshihiro Miyajima (SSSS.Dynazeon, episode director for SSSS.Gridman) is directing the Delicious in Dungeon anime at Trigger. Kimiko Ueno (The Royal Tutor, Chimimo, Eternal Boys) is supervising the script, Naoki Takeda (animation director for BNA: Brand New Animal) is designing the characters and Yasunori Mitsuda (Chrono Trigger, Xenoblade Chronicles, Black Butler: Book of Circus) is composing music.
Kui launched the manga in Kadokawa's Harta magazine in February 2014 and ended the series on September 15.
