Our visit and review

Try at Least Once

“Not sure what happened to the food.. but the quality has gone downhill.”

Sara's full firsthand review

Not sure what happened to the food.. but the quality has gone downhill. My family and I occasionally order "to-go" from here. The food has always been quick and standard. Nothing with a wow factor here. Just quick and authentic food that you can order on the phone and comfortably eat else where. I'm not much of a fan of dining inside. Our usual order of the beef kubideh was scrawny and thin looking. The beef kubideh was not plump and full of flavor as it used to be. We also ordered hummus this time around. It was too sour and grainy for my liking. Most likely made with canned chickpeas. The bread that came a long with my order was hard like a rock. It was pale, chewy, and not so edible looking. Anyways, I don't mind giving Darband a chance again.. But in the meanwhile i'll visit other familiar restaurants that actually put in effort in their food.

Diners exploring the area and families or small groups.
