From the tandoor
Dal Makhani & Butter Naan

ਜੀ ਆਇਆਂ ਨੂੰ · स्वागत आहे
Fusion cooking with a family at its centre — robust tandoor from Punjab, the spice of Maharashtra, and Chinese & Continental for the table that can never quite agree.
Lohegaon, Pune
Panjabi Darbar began with a simple idea: that a whole family should be able to sit together — grandparents on the khaat, the little one in a high chair, everyone within reach of the same hot naan — and eat food that actually means something.
Our kitchen draws from two homes. The robust tandoor of Punjab. The fire and depth of Maharashtra. And, for the table that can never quite agree, Chinese and Continental plates done with the same care. The room is spacious and unhurried; the captains — Rohan and Bikash among them — understand that a good evening is mostly about being looked after.

The Experience
Traditional woven-cot seating, low and easy, with the food within arm's reach. Sit the way your grandparents did — shoes off, conversation slow.
Sofas, chairs and quiet corners across multiple zones. A kids' menu when the little ones are particular, and high chairs the moment you ask.
A dedicated area for birthdays, anniversaries and small private gatherings. Tell us the occasion when you call, and we'll set the table for it.

"Amazing restaurant for family and group parties. Service is good at all times. You have different sitting areas like khaat for eating as a chair, sofa, chair etc. Food is not so spicy that you cannot eat. Love to visit again."
"Don't be fooled by cute little entrance they have. This place is quite huge & have variety of seating options ranging from sofa to chair & even dhaba style woven cot. Food is cost effective & is delicious. Staff is polite too."
"Tried dine in and take away both. Quantity is Ok. Taste is Good. Good place to go out for dinner/lunch with family. They have inside sitting with khaat options too to give it a Desi look and feel. Recommended at least once."
"Good newly opened restaurant in Sant nagar area. Good dhaba style food. It's situated on a road with ample parking space for 2 & 4 wheeler. Service was too quick. 5-10 min max they took."
"Except the traffic on the road, everything was satisfying. Must try Paan! One thing I would like to add is the quality and taste of the food is top notch and satisfying."
"Imagine a restaurant from Radiator Springs IRL, that's what Panjabi Darbar is. Excellent food, great hospitality, and lovely atmosphere. Highly recommend."
