We've been on the road for two months traveling through the United States and often good ethnic food is hard to find. Landing in Vancouver we vowed to seek it out and Akbar's was our choice. We were not disappointed. We had the combo appetizer...plate which honestly was enough food to feed the two of us, but we held a bit of appetite aside to do justice to Lamb Vindaloo. Succulent pieces of perfectly cooked lamb in a rich sauce that you could sop up with buttery naan. Really, how much better than that does it get?
This place is truly a hidden gem. The decor is simple but charming, and the staff were so friendly and welcoming. We ordered a variety of dishes and each one was better than the last. The flavors were bold and authentic, and the portion sizes were more than generous.
I can't believe we waited so long to try this place. It's definitely now on our list of favorite restaurants in the area. If you're in the mood for delicious Indian cuisine, do yourself a favor and check out Akbar's Own. You won't be disappointed!
the personal is about what is gluten-free and what is not. like most Indian curries are akbars gluten-free. However, their paprika, which are produced with peach meal, were unfortunately boiled in the same oil as some of their gluten-containing products, i.e. not keliac safe. But...their curries are delicious, and this family-run restaurant is definitely worth a stop when they have a demand for Indian food. my daughter, and I'm celiac, and I didn't have any problems to eat here.
my first visit to akbar’s on broadway and what a surprise! excellent eating, great service and not crowded we have really timed it. the Naan-Brot was excellently light, hot, so fresh it folds over the fingers. the young had butter huhn their. darlings, lamb garam masala was my choice perfect, rich, medium flavor suitable for any taste. they add seasoned if they want, but test it. a touch on the side lets them know. a try really worth it.

Had gone for lunch with my son .. It appears that the restaurant has regular customers.. we ordered Tandoori chicken , Paneer Makhni and Naans. Tandoori chicken was served in a sizzler with onions .. huge portion .. Paneer Makhni was awesome.. Overall very satisfying...experience ...
great place to lunch: good value, warm and sensitive service. I had the vegetarian thali for under $14, the crispy, fresh vegetables, creamy spinach with wiper, dal (lentils,) basmatic rice and four fresh slices naan, plus salat. a satisfactory meal. highly recommended!
I ordered from this restaurant for delivery again a few weeks ago and was pleasantly surprised! The food was hot, perfectly seasoned, and delicious, with generous portion sizes.
I used to frequent this restaurant a lot. Unfortunately, they don’t always deliver- if they are busy. Don’t waste your time on the website

I came here to try the lunch special and was quite disappointed. The curry was tasteless and lacking in flavor.
an authentic Indian restaurant with super friendly staff and fast service. eating was good and cheap.
