After a week of pub grub and clichéd British food, it was time for some curry. Yelp to the rescue!…read more We found Akbars just a few blocks from the train station, so it made a good stop after the National Railway Museum. I thought the dishes were fine quality, tasty and not too spicy. Good prices and good portions, suitable for sharing. Loved the atmosphere, with low lighting from chandeliers with red highlights and lounge music. It seemed more modern and hip than a standard Indian joint. The crowd was a mix of small groups of businessmen and tourists, with a few families like us.

Thanks, Adam! Wandering the streets after sightseeing, I let Yelp lead me to a top rated…read morerestaurant. I was not even slightly disappointed because Akbar's is an excellent curry house. Even though I walked in at 5:15, they were happy to see me and brought me to a table near the window. The menu was a bit strange - a solidly laminated sheet - but it had all the usual curries that I've come to expect in this country. And so instead of going with the usual, I let my eye choose. I started with the Liver Tikka. I've never had this before and I would recommend it. Not at all "livery", three good sized pieces arrived on a sizzling plate with some sauteed onions and a bowl of mint sauce. Th mint was a big help because this was seriously hot. Not spicy hot, temperature hot. Wow! For mains, the "handi" was listed as 'just like we have it at home' on the menu so I thought I'd give that a try. I chose lamb instead of chicken. It took about ten minutes (the waiter warned me it would be 15) and I also opted for two chapati to go with it. Again, very hot coming from the kitchen and it had a whole lot of flavor and spice, but it wasn't "hot" spicy just really tasty. Lots of small pieces of lamb in a sauce that is beyond description. Let's just say that it was excellent and the chapati was perfect for scooping. No dessert, but the cold bottle of Kingfisher was perfect (first time in a bottle, it's usually draft). A great meal!

Now, whenever I go home, this is one of my first stops. Last time I literally stepped off the train and walked to Shimla with my suitcases before I even went home to see my parents. It's family friendly, group friendly, a group of mates friendly, a lively meal for 2 friendly..... can't fault the place. If there's a birthday in your group, let the waiters know and you get a sparkler in a cake with a suitably cheesy jingle..... a winner every time!!

We tried the Samosas as a starter and shared a Tandoori Chicken Tikka for our main which came with Tandoori sauce, salad and a choice of Pilau rice or Naan. We chose Naan and ordered some chips as an extra. The food arrived on time and was hot and fresh. The Samosas were nice and crisp and the Naan was gorgeous as was the Tandoori Chicken Tikka. The only thing that wasn't so good really was the chips, in future I would order rice instead. Very enjoyable indeed, I will order again! :-)

Not too dissimilar to the aforementioned this place has a function room or events and is of the buffet restaurant variety. The food is of decent quality, much better than those student chinese buffet style scenarios (I know that's not saying much but still..) My personal fav were the chicken pakoras... not too oily and the meat was very tender and delicious. Not much else to say apart from the fact that there's ample parking space behind joint.
