Myself & my partner came here for dinner a little later in the night, & we had an amazing time. Our server was the best, he was friendly, & made sure to answer any questions we had about the menu. The food was delicious. I would recommend anyone to eat here. DAIRY FREE & GLUTEN FREE OPTIONS!

Amazing food, montreal's hidden gem. Definitely would recommend if you're interested in south-east food. Honestly 10/10
Benoit
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!

Super bonne bouffe! On a pris un daal, il était super. Les drinks étaient très bon aussi. Le serveur était bon, belle pratique du français & conseil avisé! S'adaptant à nos contrainte alimentaire (vegan). Le patio est un peu croche sinon, maia le reste, je vous recommande!

I had one of the most delicious, flavorful Indian meals ever at darbar the other evening. I am so glad I discovered this special place. The vegetarian thali platter was exceptional, as was my appetizer of sizzling chicken on skewers served with mint sauce. Plus, wonderful chilled white wine on a hot Montreal evening. I will be back whenever I'm in town; so many dishes on the menu are mouthwatering! The staff is so incredibly friendly & gracious, as is the chef/owner Simar. I also love that darbar is off the beaten path. The real deal, authentic, family run. I highly recommend!

Le meilleur restaurant indien que j'aie jusque là goûté! Des plats très savoureux, jusqu'aux naans qui sont exquis! & un service très attentionné, y compris de la part du chef qui vient en salle vérifier que vous êtes satisfait puis vous saluer quand vous partez. Le tout dans un cadre agréable. Je recommande.

Wait Time & Service:
It took approximately 30 minutes to get a table, followed by another 15 minutes to place our order, & then 30 minutes for the food to arrive. The service felt disorganized, possibly due to being understaffed for an unexpectedly busy mid-week evening. Dishes did not arrive together but were served individually over time, requiring multiple reminders for pending items.
Food & Quality:
We ordered Dal Makhni, Baingan Bharta, & Shahi Paneer, along with Lacha Paratha & Tandoori Roti (not listed on the menu but available upon request).
• The Baingan Bharta was excellent - definitely the highlight of the meal.
• The Shahi Paneer was overly sweet - it tasted more like a dessert than a savory entrée, & we wouldn't recommend it.
• Portion sizes were noticeably smaller than those at other Indian restaurants in the area.
Ambience & Cleanliness:
We were initially seated outdoors but had to request a change due to flies falling into our water. Inside, we were unfortunately seated near the kitchen area, where we noticed utensils being hand-washed & general disorganization, raising hygiene concerns.
Final Impression:
The entire dinner lasted around 2.5 hours, which felt unnecessarily long for a simple meal. While we understand every restaurant can have an off day, the combination of slow service, portion sizes, & questionable cleanliness made for a less-than-pleasant experience.

Les plats sont vraiment savoureux. Le chef prend la peine de venir nous rencontrer après notre commande pour vérifier si il doit faire des modifications à nos plats selon nos goûts. Il reviens après pour avoir nos commentaires. C'est plus qu'un souper, c'est une expérience dirigée directement d'un chef Indien. Je recommande cet endroit à tout ceux qui n'ont jamais mangé de cuisine Indienne & aux gens qui veulent en connaître plus sur cette cuisine.

Une véritable explosion de saveurs du début à la fin ! Nous avons mangé au Darbar & chaque plat était un délice. Les épices parfaitement dosées, des portions généreuses, & un service chaleureux qui nous a mis tout de suite à l'aise. Une expérience culinaire authentique que je recommande sans hésitation. On reviendra, c'est certain !

Wonderful food & service. The owner & chef came out to our table & was so welcoming. He recommended dishes & they were all delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant
Vanya
Good authentic & amazing taste. We ordered shahi paneer which is definitely as recommended the best, dal makhani I would say was average, chicken was also good. What we really liked were the seekh kebabs they were different & nice. Although food options for vegetarian are limited & the ambience of the place is again something to not to expect too much from. But if you are looking for taste you can give it a try.
Kevin
I've been there two times & both times were amazing! Excellent food & very hospitable! The chef came to our table & personalized our order. Definitely recommend to try it!
Sarah
We were in from out of town & had been recommended to visit so made a reservation. Darbar did not disappoint! Lovely chef, good service & outstanding food. The'appetizer still in trial' was out of this world with layered flavors & textured that really delighted. We will spread the word in Boston/Rhode Island as best we can & will be back when we next are in Montreal. Thanks.
Madeleine
Nous avons été accueilli par une serveuse très gentille & chaleureuse. Le propriétaire/chef est drôle & professionnel. Nous avons pris un menu dégustation pour trois & nous avons été très satisfait des portions. Tous étais extrêmement savoureux & fais maison. Je recommande très fortement !
William
The foood was amazing & the staff were very friendly & you should totally ask for their recommendation. It was worth it & would recommend!

Darbar is a wonderful family-run restaurant that truly cares for its customers. You feel it in the warm hospitality & the consistently excellent food.
The entire team-both in the kitchen & at the front-was kind, attentive, & really knew what to recommend to enhance our experience.
We started with the murg malai, served in a sizzling pot-such a unique & fun presentation! The seekh kebab was beautifully plated, & both dishes were absolutely delicious. The yogurt sauce with the kebabs was light & refreshing, while the spices in the murg malai built up to a deep, flavourful finish.
For our mains, we had the chicken jalfrezie & the nihari lamb. Paired with their crispy, doughy butter naan, the lamb was one of the best bites I've ever had. I literally had to close my eyes to take it in.
We ended with two orders of gulab jamun because my wife loved the first so much-she said it tasted just like her grandmother's, & we couldn't leave without having another.
Gabriel
Très bonne cuisine indienne, service de qualité, rapport qualité prix excellent. Je vous le recommande. Nous y sommes allés avant une soirée au quartier des spectacles & c'était parfait (à distance de marche).

Hidden gem that is now my favourite Indian restaurant in Montreal! Chef Simar Anand & his wife gave my family & I such warm hospitality & got to know us before making personal recommendations from his winter menu. He not only considered our dietary restrictions but also our spice tolerance levels & preferences across the meal.
We were 5 people celebrating a birthday & started off with 2 entrées: the samosay pakoray (plate of samosas & onion bhaji) & the murgh malai, whose presentation wowed us. Then Chef Anand recommended sharing 4 plates family style accompanied with enough rice & a variety of naans. We discovered the Saag Paneer (& option that never dissappoints), the Lamb Nihari, the Murgh Tikka Masala (the best tikka masala/butter chicken we're EVER had), & a new creation: Shrimp marinate for 9 hours in a spiced coconut sauce, currently being refined for the summer menu. Every single dish brought unique warmth in their spices, blended beautifully in their creamy sauces, & adjusted perfectly for our spice levels. Ending with a sweet note were the Gulab Jamun & the Ras Malai, which we all got to share & enjoy. I won't forget to mention the unique & fragrant teas on the menu, carefully selected & crafted by their in-house expert. Both the Leela & Firdaous teas delighted us, having herbs or spices we didn't know & don't normally see in tea blends.
Darbar is a restaurant where you take your time for an amazing meal, rediscover classic indian flavours, & feel the love & care in their meals & service in a way that stays grounded & authentic through it's spirit!
