Random side story: There was a rather sad couple dining at the same time. They clearly were on a first date. He was very proud of himself and trying to get her more interested by bragging about all of his wonderful accomplishments, if you know what I mean. She was having none of it. When they were getting ready to leave, there was another couple sitting at the table closest to the door, and the man's chair was blocking the door (it is a narrow restaurant). The "big tough impressive guy" said something to his date but then didn't have the guts to ask the other guy to move. He actually went and asked the server, "Could you please ask the man at the door to move so we can leave the restaurant?" Ridiculous. Couldn't believe it. Neither could his date. But I digress..... This is a nice little spot with very friendly service. We started off with the broad bean salad (which had a lovely cumin overtone combined with a pungent garlic taste), and the aubergine zalook (which had a similar cumin overtone and tomato balancing out the garlic). They also served some carrot sticks which was a refreshing touch. For the mains we tried 3 different tagines - lamb apricot (which had s strong black pepper flavour contrasting nicely with the grilled apricots - yet the lamb was not as tender as I would have hoped for), lamb souss (which had saffron and ginger overtones - yet again the lamb was not as tender as I would have preferred), and prawns (which was flavoured with saffron, raisins, peanuts, and garlic - this was my least favourite as the prawns were WAY past the proper cooking point). Overall I was a bit disappointed in the tagines - one of the things I always love about tagines are how tender the meat is. Sadly the lamb wasn't as tender as it should be, and the prawns were just rubbery. Oh well..... We did share a pleasant pot of mint tea to wrap the meal, which was poured similarly to how I remember everyone pouring it when I visited Morocco way back when (seeing how high the server can raise the pot and still not splash or spill). I thankfully got my North African food fix a bit later in the trip at Restaurant Ghomrassen (http://www.yelp.com/biz/restaurant-ghomrassen-marseille#hrid:ZisSS6SWI4DS4q4rpD5U2g/src:self)

The same song was lopping non-stop, driving us mad by the end of our visit, but he service was polite. We started with Kefta Brioates (£6.50) - three small filo pastry filled with minced lamb, sprinkled with cinnamon and icing sugar. It was crunchy and wasn't greasy but the filling lacked spice and herbs. The bread was stale, but the olives and fresh carrots were great. Our mains, Cous Cous Lamb Kedra (£14.90) contained tender chunks of lamb and tons of carrots, and was topped with currants and onions. Tagine Lamb Prunes (£15.35) came piping hot, but instead of prunes, it had pears. So it was sent back to the kitchen. In less than 2 minutes it came back with 2 prunes and 2 halved boiled eggs minus almonds. It was served with slightly overcooked tomato-flavoured bulgar wheat. Both dishes tasted fine but completely lacked spices and herbs. With those price tags, you would expect some authentic, decent, exotic flavours, but they miserably failed. .

When we arrived, the staff recognized my daughter immediately and were very nice to us. The place wasn't too busy yet. As we enjoyed our dinner, the restaurant became pretty packed with patrons and a lot of take out orders. We enjoyed some great Indian/Pakistani ("Authentic Punjabi Cuisine") food including their signature dish of lamb shank in a delicious sauce, tikka masala, vegetable curry, veggie biriyani rice and some very fresh and flavorful garlic naan. I loved all of the food and tasted each dish. The lamb shank and the sublime garlic naan were my favorites. Good flavor and freshly prepared. During our meal, I had a view of the man in a corner of the open kitchen who was nonstop making naan. He was meticulous and seemed to be a happy soul. I believe I would enjoy having some drinks with him (if he drinks). That reminds me that they don't sell alcohol at Dar's but encourage you to bring your own. I saw many other patrons bringing in their own wine bottles and the Dar staff would chill the wine and even pour it for the customers. Haven't seen that setup before. Give these guys a try when in the Hampstead area.

As a newer resident of…read morethe area, I've been looking for those handful of restaurants I can rely on for friendly service, good food quality and variety, available seating and hours, and that's worth the money-- Dar's checks all my requirements! It's a lovely spot that's family owned and been around for a while, with a menu combining Indian, Punjabi, and Pakistani food and more. There's a variety of vegetarian and vegan options available, and some unique house specialty dishes (my dad enjoyed a spicy lamb curry on the bone house special dish!). I've ordered some paneer, vegetable, and seafood dishes and have enjoyed everything I've tried, and the garlic naan is a must. I'm a fan of the hot chai tea (although for the price I would appreciate a free refill or bigger serving please!) and they have a bring in your own alcohol type of policy. Every guest I've brought here, from my parents to my boyfriend, have enjoyed this place, their food and their overall experience. The staff is attentive and friendly, and the restaurant always has space available for dining in and is popular for takeout/delivery orders.

The injera itself was also a treat with a lovely big portion to ensure you end up at 11pm a few hours later still full. My only negative comment which may be blasphemous for all I know was that I found the injera a touch too sour but it's a minor comment if anything. One last thing is to recommend the Ethiopian herbal tea which complemented the meal wonderfully.

Mine was definitely the tastier option; a bit spicy but more bursting with flavour. Well-done and a good-sized portion with the Injera. For £7.50 it's a steal. My husband praised the Ethiopian coffee as well as strong and not bitter. I would definitely return here again with the huge menu including loads of veg options.
