Highly recommend for any vegetarians passing through Worcester.

The dining room was clean and uncomplicated, with understated decor and an enchanting aroma of balanced spice. The menu here is a tome- while they're halal and vegetarian friendly, it's pretty clear they have all the meats halal allows... the usual chicken, beef, & lamb, but also mutton, goat, fish and shrimp. The first two pages are all different Mandi, or meat platters (there are vegetarian options), and then it goes on... soups, salads, classic entrees by ingredient and style. Then there's extras- biryanis, Indo-Chinese, and of course desserts. My coworker and I got a mixed grill and a chicken curry with garlic chili cheese naan and a cucumber salad. We asked for medium spicy. Everything was well prepared and expertly spiced, from a surprise sharp chili note balancing the sour tang of the yogurt in the cucumber salad, to the naan that had a welcome note of butter. The mixed grill was well prepared and the simple chicken curry was the surprise star... deep and rich, perfect over rice. The service was attentive, and it took a bit for the entrees- this isn't fast food. But the waiters and host were gracious and let us linger and finish our conversation past closing time, and let us try their rice pudding. All in all, this is the first Indian restaurant I've been to in a long time that didn't need to prop up their offering with a buffet- the entrees were compelling in their own right without having an array of choice. The bill was reasonable, and all in all we had a great time. I'll be back, and next time I'll try a mandi and ask them to dial up the heat on the curry, since they're fairly conservative with the spice levels. Judging from the well-mixed crowd in the place, they've probably got good reasons. Recommended!

We got takeout from here. A single order of the tandoori chicken mandi and the Gobi 65 appetizer…read more The Gobi appetizer was so disappointing. It didn't taste like "Gobi 65" just some chunks of cauliflower dipped in batter and smothered in some random reddish sauce. Worse than that, the batter inside ie around the florets was gloopy and pasty. They need to figure out how to do this right. The star of the show was easily the tandoori chicken - juicy, tender, and succulent - there stars for this. The rice was nice. I requested for mild spicy and it wasn't spicy at all which was great. However, the white sauce they have with it was actually over-whipped mayo which was a strange choice with this dish; wouldn't raita have been better? The brown sauce was also not appetizing. Flavor-wise, I would easily opt for a biryani vs this dish. Plus from a value for money perspective, mandi is easily more expensive even for a single portion. It feels like it's a big tray when you pick it up, but the layer of rice inside is pretty thin with only 3 pieces of chicken. Probably not worth a repeat visit unless I only want their tandoori chicken.

My only comment is that it was a bit spicier than I expected. Not enough so that I did not enjoy it, but if you hate hot-spiced food, I'd make a point of asking for mild. The naan was disappointing. I'll be back.

Formerly Woodlands Framingham, Dilli Darbar is a full service Indian restaurant and bar, which is…read moreyet another rebrand at this location under the same ownership. The former restaurant served up Indian vegetarian cuisine and the updated concept now also serves meat dishes. Woodlands is still open in Westborough. After hearing about the change, I decided to head over to Dilli Darbar in Framingham for the Sunday Lunch Buffet, which is $26.99 plus tax. I could sit at any table and sat near the buffet. The Darbari Buffet offered several dishes, appetizers, soup, and desserts including Chicken Biryani, Chicken Vindaloo, Egg Curry, Lamb Rogan Josh, Shrimp Guntar Curry, Paneer Kai Mirch, Aloo Baingan, Chana Masala, Honey Chilly Potato, Cocktail Samosa, Rice, Vegetable Pulao, Naan, Shami Kabab, Chicken Pakoda, Sabz Meloni, Pappad, Chutenys, Raita, Salad, Chicken Soup, Rice Kheer, Sawaiyan, and soda included. Since I got here well after the peak lunch period, the place wasn't busy. The food on the buffet however was not very hot. Some of the food items were very salty in taste. The soda with ice was flat. The rice kheer was pretty good for dessert. After I had enough to eat, I got the check with Toast QR code, which was $28.88 with tax and before tip. Overall, the service here attentive and laid back. I also informed staff about the taste of the food. The spice levels were just right, but they could go easier on the sodium content. All of the other Indian restaurants I've been to in the region, use much less salt. I needed two drinks to wash down the aftertaste. (2.7/5.0)
