Darbar Restaurant - San Francisco

I have been visiting this restaurant for years. It's a fantastic local spot. The owner is always there and treats us with such kindness. The food is delicious. I highly recommend anything tandoori (chicken, prawns, fish, kebab), Tikka Masala, Lamb Vindaloo, Nagari (beef shank)...it's all incredible. Don't forget to try the Garlic and Cauliflower Naan, they are a must!

I enjoy coming here when I have enough time. The curry, BBQ, dessert, and chai are all good and delicious. I love everything about this place.

This restaurant really embraces you like family from the moment you walk in as a customer.

We got chicken tandoori biryani and it was delicious! The chicken seekh kabab were good in taste but a bit dry, not juicy at all. The chicken wrap was not the best; the wrap was made of tandoori roti and it was a mouthful and then really very little chicken pieces inside and full of lettuce. Compared to other restaurants who charge minimum $15 per food item, this place has good tasting food and lower prices.

I ordered Chicken Tandoori Biryani and it was delicious. The chicken was so soft and juicy. Although this Biryani is pretty different in taste and in presentation than most Biryanis No raita and spicy curry on the side and also seems to have some tomatoes I felt. Try their chicken tandoori, you’ll love the way it’s presented The owner is very kind and friendly. This is a very old family owned restaurant who belong from Lahore. I believe the lighting in the restaurant can be improved, it feels a bit dark, there is a mess of wires and electronic systems visible from many tables and the restaurant walls needs to be painted. So no cozy or romantic vibes!
