Review The East Street Restaurant - Plainville

food was good but they need to advertise online and offline that between 330-430 the restaurant is closed.. we walked in a few weeks ago and couldn't get any service, the owner told us the staff is taking a lunch break; very disappointing because we drove one hour to grub -- nihari could've been better, it was delicious but what about the sauce and ghee? nihari sauce is supposed to be all over the place -- owner doesn't have the best attitude (don't know why) -- someone needs to be in the kitchen at all times prepping food, 330-430 pm are primetime, restaurant hours imo, there shouldn't be an excuse to close down shop in the middle of the day, especially when we're driving from NY or boston, not many other good desi restaurants in CT, this is one of the best though, so friendly note to owner & staff to keep the kitchen & service going from 3-5 pm -- last note, why doesn't restaurant have chicken & rice? pic below is from jackson heights ny, there are 1000 shops in NYC that have chicken & rice, DC also, plz get chicken & rice on the menu such as the pic posted -- guarantee more ppl would come and sales would increase if the restaurant served the latest & greatest

Pathetic service. Even after getting the table, there was nobody to take an order or serve food. The behaviour of the guy who took the order (assuming he was the owner of the restaurant) was very rude. Weirdly, we were asked to order appetisers, the main course & desert ALL at once as if the guy was doing us a favour! Absolutely not interested to treat his customers in a nice manner. Also, they have not updated any of the food prices on their website or on the menu card so you might get confused while paying the bill. Otherwise, the food is good. If you happen to go, do try their chicken tikka, mutton kebab, shami Kebab, chicken samosas, haryali chicken gravy, their korma & naan. I tried their chilli naan & garlic naan. Their desserts are also really good. I tried their gajar halwa, rasamalai and faluda kulfi.

We ordered chicken biriyani and samosas from them. Was so fresh, hot and super delicious. Price was very reasonable at $10.99 only and quantity was pretty sufficient. Will definitely visit again. Thumbs Up 👍🏽

Worth the yelling The owner will voice any and all inner thoughts, but the food is absolutely incredible. Definitely try the mutton briyani if you’re going here, and order a bit early but not too early.

The Saturday Iftar buffet lacked all excitement. Appetizers were unappetizing, the chola-chaat gave sour taste, could be a day or two old. Biriyani was simply bland, lacked flavor. Other than Nihari, everything else was of chicken, even Hakeem! And how much chicken one can eat? Gulab jamun was the only dessert! For the price of $25/person, this was not worth a visit. No wonder restaurant was not crowded on a Saturday evening.

The food is incredible. The service impeccable. They brought it to me in my car when it was ready cause i showed up early. Thanks to the gentleman that brought it out

Asia Darbar is just a very fine restaurant but also provider of raw fresh mutton & Chicken for my family since couple of years. The quality of meat is fresh can be customized as per the requirement. When we dine at the restaurant, Bihari kabab, paya, mutton kuna & garlic nanna are our favorites. Their Shahi faluda is exceptionally delicious, too. Totally recommend for a family meal.

Service was a little slow but the food was phenomenal. Worth the wait- plan for it and enjoy! Great pricing too.
