Yesterday I had dinner with my family at this restaurant. Service & atmosphere was good, music 🎢 is so relaxing, but as I heard a lot about the food in Akbar restaurant, I am not satisfied. I ordered 4 appetizers & 5 entrΓ©es. All appetizers was good but main course is average I’m not happy about the food my expectations were not fulfilled as I expected. My overall experience was 3/5.

ORDERED 5 VEGETARIAN DISHES. BHINDI MASALA WAS NOT AUTHENTIC. THE RECTANGULAR CONTAINERS WERE HAVING LESS QUANTITY THAN ROUND CONTAINERS. CUSTOMERS ARE ALWAYS IN LOSS BECAUSE OF HIGH PRICE AND LESS QUANTITY. RESTAURANT EMPLOYEES WERE NICE AND COURTEOUS.

Over priced small portions. Let me tell you, the food is ok. Yes ok. $24 for a regular portioned extreme rose smelling chicken biriyani , that’s a robbery there. Sour mango lassi for $7. And the chicken tikka masala got no flavor in it. The interior is so tacky. The cheese naan were good though. The appetizers were sooooo small or top the drinks were over priced. $15 for a small lychee mojito.I mean it’s understandable that fancy places will be expensive but please serve enough portions and improve your cooking.

I have been absolutely blown away by this place. My family is Bengali so we are really picky about our takeout Indian food (my mom says β€œwhy should we pay for stuff we can make at home πŸ˜‚) and Akbar has been consistently excellent since I was 16 (also very popular catering hall/wedding venue) but I am writing this review now because their recent customer service deserves special recognition. I pre ordered a large catering order for an office party the next day with my co workers and one of the dishes was a little too spicy (I tried everything since most of my office isn’t used to Indian food). The restaurant isn’t even open until 5 pm the next day but I reached out via Google messenger and Ms. Meena Chopra and the staff responded RIGHT AWAY, remade the dish milder no questions asked, SEVERAL hours before the restaurant even opened which means the chef came in early (also, what a guy). They did not even ask to charge me even though my co workers having milder palettes is totally not their problem. This catering order made our event a hit and all my co workers now love Indian food. The food is phenomenal, the staff goes above and beyond and it is a supremely professionally run business. The menu is perfect for both new lovers of Indian food and those for whom Indian food feels like home. Akbar is a 10/10 must have.

Good Morning, We want to have reception dinner of 200 people on Aug 18, 2019. Do you have capacity for 220 ppl ? What are your min-max charges ( appetizer entree drinks (no alcohol)?

We held a reception back in 2014, I believe it was for 180-ish people. And at the time, with good menu options, I think the rates were $27-40. Hope this helps!
