    If you value your sanity, money and trust, do not order from this business. I had ordered from the restaurant directly because I wanted them to benefit from not paying the fees of food delivery services. BIG MISTAKE! They themselves called an Uber that selected the wrong address, and took no accountability for the mistake. Meanwhile I am without my dinner on a late cold night and $45 lost. I contacted them and tried to explain - they were far from acknowledging the mistake and gave me a roundabout about how they will call uber to verify. It has been over 48 hours and I have not heard back. It’s sad to see a South Asian business be this careless. Again, save yourself the trouble, and don’t order from here.

    I had a great experience at Darbar. The food was amazing. I tried the pani puri and it was honestly so good, full of flavor and very fresh. I also loved the way it was served, everything felt well presented and thoughtful. After that, I tried the noodles and their special kebab karahi. Both were very delicious and cooked perfectly. The kebab karahi especially stood out with its rich taste and aroma.

    One of the best and authentic Halal, Pakistani and delicious foods in the area. We ordered a lot of food such as chicken biryani, kebabs, mughlai curry and gajar ka halwa. Everything was very delicious fresh and 10/10. I must say it's a hidden gem 💎.

    We had goat biryani, chicken chapli kebab, and kebab karahi with chapati. Every dish tasted unbelievably good, each with its own distinctive flavor. The chapli kebab had a smoky, crispy exterior with juicy minced meat inside. The biryani was undoubtedly one of the best I have ever had; both the rice and the meat were rich with aroma and spices. The kebab karahi stood out with its unique blend of bold ginger and tomato flavors. Truly Pakistani food at its best.

    I really enjoyed the kebabs I got shaami kebab as well as sheekh kebab! The chicken Tikka masala was good, the chicken pulau was very good the chicken in it was tender and delicious. The naan was good except for the cheese naan was not good there was hardly any cheese and all you could taste was the naan bread not the cheese. Overall the meal was very good. On a separate order a few weeks later we ordered the shami kebabs again and there was a ton of egg on them like omelette covered kebabs. Please don't add so much egg.
