" I visited Darbar several weeks ago and still think about the dishes we had! The food was fantastic, especially the mixed grill platter. The flavors really brought back memories of my travels to India. The decor has a nice touch, and it felt like a cozy hideaway in the bustling Manhattan. I’ll certainly return next time I’m in the neighborhood! " (*Curated Review*)

" So impressed with my visit to Darbar Grill! It was a last-minute decision for dinner, and we ended up with a feast! The food tasted so authentic, especially the biryani! The decor is nice and contributes to a welcoming atmosphere. The staff was quick to notice when we needed something. The only thing I can comment on was that the lighting was quite dim, making it a bit difficult to read the menu. Overall, a fantastic dining experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" Darbar became my go-to Indian place for lunch. The staff is consistently friendly and quick, and the lunch buffet has a fantastic selection. Every item I tried was flavorful, and I especially liked the spinach and cheese dishes. I always left there feeling satisfied! Still, I hope they introduce some seasonal items to keep things interesting. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful experience! The ambiance at Darbar Grill is just perfect for a cozy dinner with friends. We ordered a variety of dishes including their famous Chicken Tikka Masala and palak paneer. The flavors were rich and authentic, the naan was soft, and the rice was perfectly cooked. Our server was attentive and made great recommendations. Can't wait to visit again! " (*Curated Review*)

" Darbar Grill is a hidden gem in the city! The food was incredibly authentic and the spices were just right. It felt as though I was back in India enjoying a home-cooked meal. The decor is warm and inviting, and the service was prompt and friendly. One downside, a bit on the pricier side, but worth every penny—as the quality is top-notch! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had the best family dinner experience at Darbar! The staff treated us like family from the moment we walked in. The food was quick to arrive and absolutely delicious. I ordered the veg thali which had a bit of everything. I particularly loved the dal and the bhindi masala. Portions were great and we left feeling satisfied. It’s rare to find this kind of hospitality, and we will definitely be back! " (*Curated Review*)

" While the wait for a table was a bit long, it was so worth it! The food at Darbar Grill is flavorful and genuinely authentic. We ordered several dishes to share, and every single one was incredible! The butter chicken was delicate and perfectly spiced. The one letdown was the service, which could have been more attentive during peak hours. Still, I’ll come back for the food! " (*Curated Review*)
