This restaurant offers a variety of delicious tikkis, pakodas, samosas, and dahi bara chaats, along with delectable sweets like ladoos and jalebis. It is a paradise for those looking for Delhi/Punjab style options in the Ilford/Barking area. In addition, they serve Chole bhature and Aaloo/Paneer Kulche.

I had been hearing about Durga for years and finally decided to pay a visit. The desserts are delicious, although not exactly my preference, but the Ladoos and milk cake are exceptional. This restaurant specializes in vegetarian dishes. I recommend trying the pakorey (fried dumplings) and aloo tikki (potato cutlets). On weekends, they serve Amritsari kulchey which go perfectly with a cold Lassi. Be sure to call ahead as they tend to sell out quickly. The staff is friendly and the ambience is inviting. Whenever I'm in the mood for savory treats, Durga is a must-visit for me.

After visiting a few temples in Ilford, we decided to grab some fruit and lunch on Ilford Lane. Our favorite spot is Durga, where the staff is friendly and helpful, and they serve up delicious food. The consistent crowd at the restaurant is a clear indication of the consistently tasty food. The staff are always willing to assist you in choosing from a diverse selection of both savory and sweet dishes.

Worst dahi balle I have ever tasted... total waste of money!!! There was black pepper in the hakka noodles... they really need to hire a better chef.

Very tasty chhole bhature, amritsari paratha and paneer paratha. Lassi was thick and creamy and not too sweet. Masala chai was okay, could've had some ginger to make it amazing. Felt that kachori, samosa and nankhataee were a little under-baked. We were lucky to get a seat upon arrival. Short waiting time after ordering. Food arrived hot and aromatic. Bhature were not oily. Parathe had the correct amount of butter. Quantity of chhole was perfect. Loved my brunch and will return for sure!
