Afghan Darbar

The food was delicious. We ordered Mutton Chopan Kabab, Tandoori Chicken, Mutton Kadhai and Qabuli Uzbeki . Mutton Chopan Kabab steal the show, fresh and juicy, full of authentic flavours, it was a bliss - something that will attract me back to the place again. Mutton Kadhai was mutton well cooked with the curry of eggplant and the combination was a good taste to my mouth. I liked it. It came with three traditional breads. Qabuli uzbek pulao was the second best thing for me, it came with kidney beans curry and some eggplant curry and was again something I can have eaten all by myself (but alas! I had more ppl to share it with). Ambience wasn’t that good but the food compensated well for it. Will surely visit again.

Loved the Qabuli Uzbeki pulao! I was originally sceptical about the kismish in there.. but it tasted nice. Loved the Bolani Gandana! (Essentially a spring onion stuffed pancake/Paratha made of maida) The Al Fahm (tandoori chicken) was a little on the dry side. They also supplied us with complementary rajma, borani banjan and Afghani naan! The service was a little slow hence the 4 stars here... Definitely recommend! Enjoy ❤️

I enjoyed having food in Afghan Darbar. The quality of the food is worth trying and will not even pinch to your pocket. The service was quick as there were long queue outside the restaurant. I have been their customer for a long time. So guys you can definitely go to this restaurant if you want to have spicy and non spicy non-veg or veg food.

This area of Lajpat Nagar has settlements of afghanis. Hence we can find many afghan cuisines here. Coming to Afghan Darbar: 1. It’s a small place , so waiting time is at least 15-30 min after 9pm. 2. Only 2 people went so order 3 dishes which also seems too much Tandoori pulao- due to raisins it might taste sweet- has 2 pieces of cooked meat- so tender and nicely cooked. I have seen for the first time where all meat and chicken items cooked properly. Along with rice you get 3 afghan breads, rajma and brinjal curry. This would have sufficed. But we ordered chicken Qorma which is very tasty and properly cooked. As a started we ordered Tandoori chicken kebab (Al farm) which is best. Although choppan Kebab is best it’s too much for 2 people. So we didn’t order. Ordered 2 cokes. Couldn’t complete all these items. He asked for cash while bill payment, although would provide you UPI as last payment option.

This has to be one of the best places in Delhi/NCR for Afghani food, It’s great value for money with delicious food and great portions at affordable price. I’m glad I ended up here for lunch while visiting the Lajpat Nagar market. I ordered the chicken Kadhai with tandoori chicken kebab and their Qabuli Uzbeki rice and when the order arrived, I was surprised by their portion size as my table was filled and they even served a plate of kidney beans complimentary with the order. It was one of the best meals I’ve ever had. I’ve been a regular ever since and I will recommend this restaurant to everyone who is looking to try something new and delicious.
