Really Tasty
My husband and I just moved to the area from the Upper West Side where we loved our nearby Indian restaurant. We were apprehensive about trying a new place, however we were very pleasantly surprised. We ordered for take out the vegetable samosas, shrimp curry, chicken vindaloo, naan, and tandoori chicken . Everything was delicious - the curry and vindaloo sauces were both very flavorful, the samosas were perfectly crispy on the outside and my husband really enjoyed the tandoori chicken. The ordered was prepared on time and the proprietors were very friendly. We couldn't have been happier!

Love this place (and it's sister)
This is one of my fav Indian food places. It's reasonable, authentic, good service. I like the atmosphere of thier sister restaurant better but this one is just as good. It is a great neighborhood find!

Solid midtown lunch option
Of course you have to like indian food. That said, it may be the best value in midtown for a sitdown lunch. And speedy too with the buffet.

Best lunch buffet in Manhattan
Darbar's $11 lunch buffet (as of 8/13/09) is probably the best Indian buffet -- and arguably the best lunch value -- in Manhattan. Today's entrees included chicken tikka masala (excellent), tandoori chicken (excellent), vegetable makhani (excellent), a fish curry/masala (excellent), and a few others. They also had a wide range of salad and appetizer options that looked beautiful, fresh, and delicious. Desserts include mango mousse (great), gulab jamoon (great), custard/flan (great), rice pudding, fruit, etc. The atmosphere is as classy as the food is fresh and colorful -- far beyond what you would expect for an $11 lunch. All the dishes were either great or excellent (except the rice pudding, which was only OK by my taste). Highly recommended.
