The first thing I noticed when stepping out of my vehicle was the incredible smell that permeated the area. This restaurant uses a rich blend of herbs and spices that really make each dish stand out. The menu has items from both India and Afghanistan. I love spicy food, and requested their highest heat level (5). It was pleasantly warm, but I would have liked it a bit hotter. Most people will find the food within their preferred heat range. The dishes, themselves (I got one meat curry and one vegetable curry) were more complex and had a greater variety of ingredients than other Indian restaurants I've been to. Both curries were fantastic. The Basmati rice was cooked to perfection and had a nice nutty flavor. The person who served us was very attentive. The food took a bit longer to prepare, but was worth the wait.

The food here was amazing and very flavorful. We got a mix of Indian and Asian dishes and they were all very great. Our host was very kind and informative. Spice level was great. Overall a good experience.

Great food, was passing by the area and stopped for dinner. Ordered pani puri as appetiser, followed by hyderabadi biryani, kabab platter and bolani. Biryani was very tasty. My kids enjoyed the platter and i loved the pani puri. 10/10 Mubeen’s and qudrat ullahs customer service was great 👍 highly recommend

Darbar Halal Restaurant Delicious but Overpowering Darbar Halal Restaurant in Sacramento offers a vast menu of Afghani and Pakistani dishes at very reasonable prices. The location is decent, and the facility itself is clean and well-decorated. We ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala and Lamb, along with garlic and regular naan. Both dishes were incredibly flavorful, but unfortunately, the abundance of spices was a bit overwhelming. It wasn't necessarily spicy or hot, but the sheer volume of ingredients, including what seemed to be a significant amount of sugar, created a somewhat overpowering taste that might leave some diners with heartburn. Overall: Darbar is a great option for those seeking authentic and flavorful Afghani/Pakistani cuisine at budget-friendly prices. However, the intense spice blend might not appeal to all palates. Recommendations: * Consider milder options: If you're sensitive to strong flavors, inquire about milder alternatives or request the chef to adjust the spice level. * Try the bread: The naan, both garlic and plain, was excellent and a perfect complement to the curries. * Explore the menu: The extensive menu offers a wide variety of dishes, so there's something for everyone to enjoy.

Everything tastes great. Flavorful gravies and biryanis. Big portions enough for leftovers. Especially loved the soft, chewy naan. Friendly service. Pleasant casual dining room.
