Sick of the typical French/Italian hybrid menus that we were finding all over Montreal, we were on the lookout for something different. We made reservations at Darbar for 8pm on a Sunday night. We're glad we did because the tiny restaurant was packed.
We started with an onion fritter appetizer (forget the name) which was spicy and delicious. For our main courses, we had Saag Gohst and Madras. They were both delicious. Madras was really spicy but still delicious. The garlic naan was superb. Everything was reasonably priced.
We also got beer... There were two options "en fut," the blonde "taj mahal" and the rouge "cobra." We preferred the cobra but both were large, cold and tasty.
The place was pretty tiny and had a few places where you could eat on the floor in the traditional style. Most people seemed to want a table so definitely specify what you want when you call for a reservation.
