Chef Simar came out to chat with us sharing in-depth about the menu, the creation of his seasonal menus, & made recommendations based on what we said as our taste preferences. He made a special batch of gluten free naan that he named as "not yet perfected & not ready to be on the menu". It was a great addition to the meal. The food had an incredibly special vibrance of flavor. A must visit!
went here with my friends & the food was delicious! the interior is dimly lit, they have a wide range of options & the chef took the time to talk with us. food is freshly made :)
Truly one of the best meals I have eaten. The people running this place are some of the warmest & kindest people you will ever meet. The food is exquisite & inventive. My mouth is literally watering just thinking about the meal. I'll spend the rest of my life eternally looking forward to my next visit to Darbar.
Every time we come to Montreal we try to get dinner here. Lovely food, atmosphere, & service.
We had a fabulous dinner at Darbar! The chef came out to greet us & made suggestions on what to eat, & he even prepared a special appetizer for us that wasn't on the menu (but should be -- it was delicious!). The entire meal was amazing. We will definitely be back next time we are in Montreal!
Le petit joyau du quartier, le service est impécable, le chef est sympathique à souhait, la nourriture est excellente.
Experience hors pair lors de notre visite. Le service est incroyable, Le chef est venu nous voir à plusieurs reprise pour s'assuré que tout est à notre goût. Il nous a donner des recommandation & nous a demander nos préférences en terme de saveur & niveau d'épices. Nous somme des amateurs de cuisine indienne mais Darbar était à un niveau supérieur. Coup de coeur pour l'agneau Nihari. Nous avons déjà hâte d'y revenir.
2e visite au Darbar & cette fois, ce fut un wow! La nourriture fut exquise, le proprio est venu nous voir & tout le monde était aux petits soins! Je recommande vivement!
We had the pleasure once again of an evening at DarBar. This time we asked Chef Simar to choose our food for us. He treated us to some new dishes he is experimenting with. We are so glad to have made that decision. It's difficult to imagine the food could get even better, but this moved the meal into the handful of my "Once in a Lifetime" experiences. All I can say is PLEASE try out this fabulous place, especially if you enjoy Indian food. & do take the plunge & let the chef show you what magic he can produce. Original review: This is an unassuming little gem tucked away in an interesting but somewhat run-down stretch of "The Main". The food is wonderful! The spices are complex & the heat in the dishes is deep & embracing. Just what one would expect from the very best Indian cuisine. Service is very attentive & the owner is always willing to discuss his vision for the food & the restaurant. In addition to the overall quality of the food, there is great attention to detail. For example, our bowl of rice was not merely seasoned & fragrant, it contained pomegranate seeds that had been marinated in rosewater, so there was an interesting note of sweetness & crunch from the flesh & kernels of the seeds. Nothing on the menu could be considered plain. Everything is an adventure in flavours & textures. Montreal is home to countless great places to eat, so it's quite an achievement for an eatery to stand out, but DarBar certainly does in my opinion.
Great service, the waiters are super nice! Beautiful interior & nice ambiance.
Great experience ,Great food , & you feel how much they care about you enjoying what you order. The Chef comes to ask your preferences on spice level .... & boom amazing food lands on your table... divine taste & evry dish has its distinct taste... Just wow Sadly no photos we were starving
Bons plats, mais vraiment cher pour la quantité - sans le petit wow. Rien de désastreux, mais quand même.
I visited Darbar on a Saturday evening with my family & discovered a hidden gem in Montreal serving the best Indian food. Everyone at Darbar was so warm & welcoming, which is rare these days. Will keep visiting
Meilleur restaurant indien dans lequel j'ai mangé. En fait, c'est la meilleure bouffe indienne à laquelle j'ai goûté dans ma vie! Tout était incroyablement savoureux. La présentation était superbe & nous avons eu un très bon service. Une mention spéciale à l'entrée de samosay pakoray! Une belle découverte!
Formidable chef passioné par son travail! Cuisine d'excellente qualité & service authentique. Une douce & delicieuse découverte !
For the past few years, I've done my best to come here a few times a year. It's a little inconvenient, & Montreal has no shortage of great Indian food, but this place is special. Before saying a word about the food, it's worth noting the resiliency of this establishment. Faced with barriers, literal ones put up by the city's slow-moving roadwork, it has continued to fight on to preserve the memories of the family that created it. I consider going here, in some ways, a political act. That said, given how good the food is, it doesn't take much to get inspired to go. The presentation of the food is as wonderful as its flavors - the small touches, like literal flowers, bring every dish to the next level. I find that everything I try here is always an elevated version of the comforting flavors I've had elsewhere. The chef is sensitive to spice tolerance (I can handle the heat, but my partner less so), which makes it a good spot for everyone. I've been treated with the experience of trying new desserts in the works & given great advice on wine pairings. I brought my toddler once & they went out of their way to keep her occupied with little snacks along the way so we didn't feel we had to manage her too much or rush out. All of this to say, that if you're looking for a delicious meal from a place that earns every penny it makes, go here & you will not be disappointed!
