9.5/10Visited the Durbar again last night. It’s the perfect local Indian restaurant, lovely staff who give great service and delicious food. Try the Chicken Dhansak, it’s excellent. Don’t forget to take your own beer or wine, as they don’t serve alcohol.

2/10I had an awful experience at [Restaurant Name], and I must share it. The food was the worst I’ve ever had. The kebabs were undercooked, almost raw, and watery. The bhindi lacked flavor and was also watery. The tandoori chicken was cold inside, clearly not fresh. Service was just as bad. After a few bites, we asked for the bill, leaving most of the food untouched. Despite being the only table with multiple staff around, no one asked if something was wrong. Their indifference was shocking. To top it off, when I requested a copy of the bill, the staff member rudely took it from my hand and questioned why I needed it. It’s my right to have the invoice, but he only returned it after adding a VAT number, which felt unprofessional. This experience was frustrating from start to finish. I won’t be returning, and I advise others to avoid this place.

7.5/10The food was good but not amazing and the service was friendly but there were mistakes. We are outside because it was packed inside and it was far too stuffy. There isn’t much atmosphere either. Overall a 7.5 out of 10

9.5/10This friendly neighbourhood restaurant, now in 67th year, serves delicious food with great service in a pleasant atmosphere. Frequented by locals who know how good it is and tourists who’ve done their homework on where’s good to go, you won’t be disappointed at the Durbar. Don’t forget to take your own beer or wine with you as they don’t serve alcohol.

10/10This restaurant is fantastic. It is super high-quality & authentic Indian food. Clearly the establishment cares greatly about your experience and takes pride in their service and the quality of their food. Has a local authentic feel. Not a fancy vibe, but perfect for a fabulous well priced meal!

10/10Really liked this, 'Old School', traditional style Indian Restaurant. Poppadoms and Dips, with Lime Pickle too, which I haven't seen in a long time. Starters of Onion Bhaji and very delicious Lamb Samosas, for my wife and I. I had Chicken Tikka Jalfrezi, very nice with lots of green chilli's, as it should be. My wife had an amazing looking Lamb Shank, which she said was very good also. Boiled Rice and a very light and fluffy Garlic Naan too. All great with pleasant waiting staff. Restaurant is BYO, (bring your own), too. Got 20% discount via The Fork app. They do charge the London centric 12.5% Service Charge, but this was offset by the discount. A very cosy and pleasant restaurant, which we'll return to, without hesitation.

9/10Nice place, last night noisy due to a birthday. Food is nice. They don’t serve alcohol but you can buy: there is a supermarket in 1 minutes walking, where you can purchase chilled beer or wine. Eventually a good experience

9.5/10Charming service and delicious food, the only down side is the acoustics of the space, not helped by the ear splitting table of six next to us.

8.5/10I'd never been to Durbar before but was encouraged to do so due to the Fork's offer. I was not disappointed. This is in no way a fancy upscale restaurant, but doesn't pretend to be. It's an old fashioned Indian, which is no bad thing, as long as the food is good, which it was. There's an extensive menu (which sometimes worries me due to items being frozen) - I did ask the question about the scallops which I wanted to order, and was told that they were tinned. I passed. But the chicken dishes are prepared fresh and skilfully. Just know what you're ordering!

8/10The staff were fabulous. The food was tasty but not hot (heat wise NOT spice) I am certain that the restaurant will rectify this situation after reading this review.
