★★★★★ Good food for a reasonable price. Great service as well. Posted on November 30, 2014

★★★★☆ Food and service were both good. If you are in town and want desi food, this is a nice place. Small little joint, but clean. Posted on August 29, 2012

★★★★☆ nice environment,fast service,friendly staff,good buffet.will return again when we are in town.InsyaALLAH.love from Malaysia Posted on November 10, 2010

★★★☆☆ I have ate in this resteraunt and my family has catered from them in the past, I can vouch and say that the food is awesome and I have no complaints. Pricing if fair and location was good. Give it a try if you're in the neighborhood, you wont regret it. Posted on November 13, 2009

★★★★★ A friend and I ate at Darbar this past weekend and we totally enjoyed this little restaurant. My friend ordered the Biryani and I the Chicken Tikka Masala and a Mango Lassi. We both loved the food along with the very friendly owner and staff. When we are back in San Francisco we will definitely be coming back to this little place again. We both agreed the Biryani was the best we’ve had outside of Singapore. Posted on January 29, 2008

★★★☆☆ Neat and clean but a weird smell when you enter. Not so good food. Only thing we liked was Chapli kebab and Mango Lassi Posted on January 12, 2008

★★★★☆ Been there three times, and my favorite is the benghan bharta. It's chunky and spicy, just the way I like it. The buffet didn't equally impress, due to lack of variety. Then again, they had only been serving buffet lunch for a week, so I'm sure it will improve over time. Posted on August 3, 2007

★★★★☆ We ate their twice on our vacation - the lady there is very friendly, great service, great location, fair price, and the food is fairly good! I recommend it. Posted on August 26, 2005

★★★★★ Visiting SF this wonderful delight was behind our hotel. The owner was so friendly and the food was excellent. I particularly recommend the chappli kebobs! Posted on August 20, 2005

★★★★★ I wasn't able to post my rating earlier but just said that the food is awesome (particularly chappli kebobs) and the owner is friendly... the best SF eats we hit up. Posted on August 20, 2005

★★★★☆ Very tasty food, non-greasy, and friendly staff/owenership. A nice change from all the stomach cramp inducing grease/ghee at other South Asian restuarants! I think because business has been slow some of the portions have decreased but it is still worth going to for lighter desi fare. Posted on July 26, 2004

★★★★☆ This place is visited by my hubby almost on a weekly basis. Ths food is clean and served in a nice setting. This is definitely a change from the Naan and Curry and Shamlimar. Thank god!! By the way, the owner keeps us laughing and is very hip, not an extreme Paki:) Posted on June 18, 2004

★★★★☆ We went to SanFran last week and visited this place. It was clean, the enviorment was Pakistani... and the service was great. The food was above average. Biryani was great. Have to try the Mango ice cream! My wife mentioned that this was the best ice cream she has ever eaten. I agree. I would recommend it. Posted on June 10, 2004

★★★★★ Very neat and clean, delicious food and extremely cheap. If you get turned off by untidy surroundings at Shalimar/ Naan 'n' Curry etc., try Darbar... Posted on May 16, 2004
