My partner and I have spent many nights at Akbar over the last three years, so it felt like an appropriate and special place to celebrate our engagement. JC and the entire Akbar Team went above and beyond to make it an unforgettable night. The food and wine were delicious, and the staff were attentive to every guest’s comfort. Thank you all so much.

Excellent dining experience, will be back! Our waiter took total care of us, offering recommendations and colorful tips about the restaurant. Food was delicious (definitely get a tandoori!!) and even though it took awhile because it was prepared to order, I never felt like I was receiving anything but the best service and care. The chutneys are very good and homemade too! Oh and do NOT miss out on some yummy garlic cheese naan, it’ll change your life.

This might have been the worst Indian food I have eaten. There was no spice on anything! The Butter chicken tasted just like chicken cooked in marinara, no buttery curry taste. The Samosas had only the flavor of the peas nothing else. The dipping sauces lacked any flavor to them. The garlic cheese naan was even worse, it was more like cream cheese filled and cold. It barely tasted like it was actually cooked properly. This is the whitest Indian food I have eaten in my life. I do not recommend anyone who likes typical Indian flavor to dine here or you are going to be dissatisfied.

Good indian tandoor items after a very long time. Both our tandoor came out really really well, perfectly cooked and seasoned.

Their biryani is so tasty that I would say it’s my favorite Indian dish in all Indian restaurants. Besides, it has lamb, shrimp and chicken all in one that I don’t have to choose among different meat options as I did at other places. It’s genius.

I’ve dined in (prior to Covid 19) and had delivery in addition to take out. The food is consistently delicious not your typical Indian restaurant. They have 2 items that aren’t listed below chicken Kati rolls never had them before but they’re soo good. They have the spiciest chicken wings (very very spicy) but I love hot/spicy foods. My favorite Indian restaurant since the mid nineties.

Super tasty Indian food with decent prices. $17 will get you an entree, rice, Naan, lentils, and veggies. The saag paneer was really flavorful…I got spice level 3 (it’s normally a 2) and I wouldn’t recommend going any higher unless you really want hot. The butter chicken was delicious – not as sweet as other places, and super savory.

Quite tasty, reasonably priced for portion sizes. Lamb pepper is one of the best Indian dishes in the US: well spiced without being burning too much. Gucchi dhania extremely savory and flavorful. Highly recommended

The tandoori lamb chops were so absolutely perfect! Every bite is like heaven. Garlic naan. Chicken tiki masala and the palak paneer —all phenomenal choices! No pictures because we literally dove right into eating. Best Indian food I’ve had

The food is fine, but the prices are unreasonable. I got a simple chicken tiki masala for takeout and my bill was over $26. Why so expensive? Not going back again!
