Was there New year eve had booked for 730 service chaotic but staff great half an hour before order was taken waited another half an hour before starter and same for main course well worth the wait excellent food would definitely recommend
Lovely place went on a Friday night straight from work been wanting to try for a while. The decor is beautiful, service great and food fantastic. Received poppadums as complimentry and a side dish of spicy mushrooms. The curry was really tasty and served quickly. Highly recommended will be going again thank you Akbar The Great �
Never fails to please. Aye here again tonight, good food, excellent service from Mo and Crystal. This is probably the best Indian restaurant in Darlington 5* in every way!
Amazing place came with my mum for her birthday, staff are so friendly and food is amazing. Best Indian restaurant in Darlington by far.
Went on Friday 5th January... Food was outstanding... and staff were very attentive... Would highly recommend :-)
Went on Friday with 15 of us in tow. Great night even though we were loud (sorry) really looked after us and food was fantastic.
Went here last night for a meal with my partner and I have to say the food was gorgeous, surroundings lovely and the service was fantastic, would definitely go back here
Excellent beautiful food , lovely staff , can't fault the place xxx
Had a really enjoyable meal with my wife last night - would recommend to anyone!
Wonderful, cheerful and helpful staff, especially Krystal, front of house. Only one word for the food - Magnificent.

Great food and great service, highly recommend!!
Really good, tasty food and wonderful service, nothing was too much trouble. We will definitely return, Thank you!
Curry for Christmas lunch! Fabulous food and lovely staff, fantastic 5*
Came here on a bank holiday weekend for an evening meal. Excellent, friendly service from the moment you arrive. Nice, new modern surroundings in which to eat.
Couldn't fault the starters and dips with poppadoms. My chicken madras was not as thick as I'm used to from other restaurants but plenty of chicken with keema rice and a keema naan. I will definitely go back. Cobra bottled Indian beer.
Great service and fantastic food. My son has a peanut allergy, and their kitchen is nut free, which is perfect for us. We will be coming back.
Great choices and delicious food, but service was ok, not top quality .
Went here with a few old work mates. Food was outstanding and reasonably priced. Very fresh food with a lovely authentic taste. Everybody enjoyed there meals. Will definitely be returning to the restaurant. 5 ⭐ 👌
A nice curry, really friendly staff and some great things on the menu. Only thing that is odd is the take away part of the business being in the restaurant, but other than that, its lovely and didnt take away from the goregous food.
Food was magnificent!!!!! Very friendly and helpful staff. Will be back there very very soon.
Will be returning as it was that great.
First time I have ever dined here. I travel all over the North of England and try one restaurant in as many different locations at least once a month.
Wonderful staff, great food and beautiful interior.
Would highly recommend.
Reasonable price too.
Called in tonight for a lovely meal at Akbars new restaurant, absolutely beautiful! And that’s the food and the building!!
Their new venue is very modern, bright and the bathrooms just wow!! The decor is fab!
Family ran business, warm and friendly staff. Both our meals were very moreish! We have different tastes my partner and I, he likes spice and I like sweet. We were both accommodated for!
10/10!
It was delicious. Lovely vegetable pilau rice, superb tandoori with soft, succulent chicken, prawns and lamb. Beautifully cooked. Will definitely order again. Akbar the great is the right name.
We have had a few takeaways from here last year and they were always lovely. Finally got round to sitting in on Saturday, the restaurant inside was beautiful and absolutely spotless and the food was delicious and a good price for great quality food, with not just the typical Indian meals on the menu which for me is a bonus as I like to try new things! Definitely somewhere we will return too in future!

10/10
Took advantage of the 20% off dining in instead of ordering a takeaway as usual- so pleased we did!
Starters of prawn puri and chicken pakora were top notch, the raita with the chicken was amazing.
Mains were ten out of ten even though we admitted defeat and took the rest home for dinner the following day 🙈
Lamb Mumbai korhei and a chicken tikka masala with fresh made keema naan both absolutely the best thing I’ve tasted in a long time.
Love the restaurant, service was impeccable and can’t wait to visit the new premises ❤️
The food and service were amazing. My mum's a celiac and they were very helpful explaining what she could and couldn't eat. Through the whole meal they were very attentive, polite and generally nice, chatty people. Thanks so much, we'll definitely be back!
What can i say , first time visit and wont be the last. Great food ,service and ambiance. Smartest toilets as well.
