Possibly the best Indian food we've eaten. The owner/chef Simar (sp?) made the evening special. He selected our meal & everything was perfection! This is a must if in Montreal! Thank you!Voir plus

An amazing experience- from the friendly & attentive staff to the superb food, we couldn't have asked for me. The restaurant was cozy, casual & felt local. The main event- wow wow- the food was incredible. Samir, the head chef, was great as explaining & recommending dishes, you can tell he's passionate about his craft. Everything we tried was 10/10.Voir plus

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.Voir plus

I've been visiting this restaurant every time I'm in Montreal from the U.S. because the food used to be consistently delicious. Unfortunately, my most recent experience was disappointing & far from what I've come to expect.
My family & I ordered three meat thalis, one chicken tikka masala, & one saag paneer. The meat in the thalis didn't taste fresh & seemed like it had been reheated. While the chicken in the tikka masala appeared fresher, the flavor was lacking. The saag paneer was especially underwhelming-the gravy was bland, & the paneer was rubbery in texture.
While we were prepared for a bit of a wait, as we've been here many times before, the food still didn't justify it. The only highlight was the rasmalai, which was excellent.
Unfortunately, the overall dining experience was disappointing, & we left feeling unsatisfied. One additional note: while our server was polite, basic hygiene standards need attention. A strong body odor was noticeable, which detracted from the dining atmosphere. In a restaurant setting, this is something that really shouldn't be overlooked.
Regrettably, I won't be returning on future visits to Montreal.Voir plus

I knew this restaurant was going to be an incredible experience when the executive chef came out to introduce himself to almost every table. My partner & I ordered the samosas & onion bhaji to start. They were delicious! The tamarind sauce was so tangy it paired perfectly. We also each ordered a thali. It came with rice, naan, papadam 3 stewed dishes & a piece of tandoori chicken. Everything was so delicious I could go on for a while. It was so much food, we could not finish our plates.
On top of the incredible food the staff were all fantastic & very welcoming. Some might consider the service a bit slow, but I believe that is intentional as the chef prepares each dish individually. I for one enjoyed it as it allowed my partner & I to have time to chat & sip our cocktails.
We sat on the patio, its was very comfortable but the noise from cars on the street could be loud.Voir plus

We had the Samosa starter & Thali, & boy were we stuffed! Excellent all around & the head chef Mr.Anand was charming as well. The food was spectacular, we'll have to come back for the next seasonal menu.Voir plus

I've been coming to Dharbar for over ten years, & it remains one of my absolute favourite restaurants in the city. The food is always delicious-meticulously prepared with care, balance, & flavour in every dish. The service is consistently excellent, & the attention to detail-from presentation to atmosphere-makes every visit feel special. Whether it's a casual meal or a celebration, Dharbar never disappoints.Voir plus

I have been to that restaurant a lot since I moved to the neighborhood but I won't go back. Price went up by a lot: the Thali who was below 20$ before pandemic & 25$ recently just got increased to 30$. They do not put the price on the menu anymore 😫 so you have to ask.
The portions were not as generous as before & the wait staff will try to upsell you constantly (at least 4 times during the service).
Finally, they were not compliant with law 72 when we visited: their terminals are still calculating the tip on the amount after taxes.
There is at least 8 other Indian restaurants within 500 meters. I will try those now.Voir plus

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 !Voir plus

Disappointing Service Despite Good Food
We visited this restaurant as a family traveling from the USA, including our young child. As tourists unfamiliar with French, we relied on the English names provided on the menu. We assumed the descriptions listed below each item were explanations of the dish contents, not realizing they needed to be translated to understand properly.
Unfortunately, this misunderstanding led to confusion when ordering. Instead of assisting us with patience & understanding, the staff responded with inconsistent & frustrating remarks such as,'we told you,''you should translate,' &'it's written clearly.' There was a clear lack of empathy & customer care, especially toward tourists.
To make matters worse, it took over an hour just to receive our appetizers. When we asked about the delay, the explanations kept changing, which only added to the frustration.
Eventually, when the food did arrive, it was undeniably good. However, the poor service & the dismissive attitude left a lasting negative impression. It took considerable effort on our part just to get the staff to acknowledge their role in the confusion.
In summary, while the food was enjoyable, the overall experience was disappointing due to the lack of proper service, empathy, & clear communication. As tourists, we expected a bit more kindness & guidance.Voir plus

Amazing food, amazing staff & amazing drinks. We have eaten at Darbar a few times & love it.
If you're not sure what to order the team will help you. You can't go wrong though, every dish is delicious.
Have allergies? Note it in the reservation. They pre-made marinades for us so there was no cross contamination, without even knowing what we would order! Sensitive (or not) to spices, let them know & they will make sure your dish is perfectly suited to you.
We can't say enough about this place, it's great. We look forward to visiting again soon.Voir plus

Sam
Everything about this experience was incredible. We were down in off the street by the incredible smell & everything only got better from there.
The staff was wonderful & we had a chance to speak with the head chef about the food & his story as the son of the man who opened this restaurant 26 years ago!
Wish we were in Montréal longer so we could come back!Voir plus
