I sapori di ogni piatto erano perfettamente bilanciati, il pollo cotto alla perfezione.Il personale ha fatto di tutto per rendere memorabile la nostra esperienza culinaria. Sono stati attenti senza essere invadenti.
Il servizio è stato impeccabile. I nostri bicchieri non erano mai vuoti e il cibo è arrivato prontamente.Mi è piaciuto molto l'ambiente intimo e accogliente di questo posto.Ottimo rapporto qualità/prezzo! Le porzioni erano generose e il gusto eccezionale..I propietari super gentili, simpatici. Rimarrete nel nostro ❤?

Food was unbelievable, one of the best indian food i've ever had. Its was full of flavors & the presentation was original. Also, the chef was very hospitable & nice to us.

I found the tables were inconvenient (too small) for the amount of food on the table, & the service was a bit laggy but I also understand that it's a very small location & we got in very late, 1 hour before their close.

Overall a great experience, would recommend to everyone!

I've been going to Darbar since before the pandemic. Amazing every time. When the dad was running it & now when the son has taken over: still just as excellent. Family business with very reasonable prices. Such nice people & great attention. Food is delicious. The chef comes & talks & listens to every table. Another wonderful evening.
This time, we had the vegetarian thali, bhindi bhaji, garlic naan, tamarin & cumin lassi, & a Taj Mahal. We ordered way too much a as always because everything looks & smells so good. Had a good-sized doggy bag after stuffing ourselves.
