Reviews for Darbar Indian Cuisine in Palo Alto, CA

Darbar Indian cuisine is a well-run operation. The staff is pleasant and knowledgeable and very quick to fill my water glass or... ask if everything is okay and if we needed anything. The vegetable Biryani is off the hook. This is one of those places that Iwould highly recommend for anyone to enjoy a good Indian meal. Although I am disappointed that they don't have the buffet yet Ianxiously await the return of their Buffet. Read more

Great place for Indian food at a good price. Lunch times tend to be busy but the waits are not long. Great tandoori chicken and... lamb. update Nov 2022: went back after a long time- still super delicious food and great service. Love the mango lassi. Highlyrecommend this place Read more

I started going to Darbar right before Covid started, my go to dish has always been the non vegetarian thali. I love that I?m... able to try out different items from the menu with just one dish. The malai kofta is wonderful, it?s subtly sweet and savorywith the lamb. I?m so glad they started doing dine in again! The staff is always kind and asks me how I?m doing. When it?s notso busy they?ll chat with me if I?m waiting for my take out. Rather than just ignoring me like other restaurants I go to. Darbaris my go to Indian restaurant, I?ve tried many Indian restaurants in the Bay Area. They can?t beat Darbar?s quality and pricefor what you get! Read more

Went to dine in with friends here and was surprised with the below-par quality given the rating on google maps. Mango lassi was... spoilt and tasted weird. Fish masala curry taste was okay but fish did not taste fresh. Appetizers were very average. Whilewaiting in line for toilet in front of kitchen, I could smell a stinking odor which immediately put me off. Read more

Darbar deserves a 5-star rating. I?ve been coming here for over a decade, and it is the comfort food I always crave whenever I?m... out of the Bay Area. The chicken korma and shahi paneer are the stuff dreams are made of. Their sauces can?t be matched anywhereelse! Staff are kind and attentive too. Read more

Great food! Paneer do pyaza, veg vindaloo (super spicy ????) among other dishes is a must try. Love that they give roti and rice... with the curry. Very few places do that, making the price very reasonable compared to other Indian restaurants in the area. It'smy go to place for great food at a great price. I actually shifted away from the area, but many a times still drive 20-25 minfor their food. Read more

Went with a few friends, probably the most authentic taste in Indian food I have had in bay. Their mango lassi was bomb. Ordered... chicken tikka masala, fish curry and a spinach chicken curry. Loved the food. Again, don't forget their lassi. Read more

Authentic Indian cuisine with great dine in experience. Ordered Chicken Tikka Masala, chicken cooked in tandoor with creamy... sauce. Read more
