i went with anna joe philip and sandra jai! such a lovely place!! :)just loved it!!!!
Food is awesome. We visited minimum 10 times as it's best restaurant for North Indian. Must try Paneer Lajavab...and Paneer Sunari Papadi starter...Daal khichadi...Service is little slow.
We landed at this place after a tiresome drive of 5 hrs and were famished and ready to hog on and they mentioned whatever we ordered we will get in 10 mins and true to the words everything was served within the time frame and absolutely loved the food. It’s yummy & economical. Recommend their Kerala Parotha , Natholli fry & Beef kantari

We had our Chinese food delivered to us on a rainy day...The delivery guys at Swiggy did a wonderful job of delivering the food in absolutely no time...The food was simple but absolutely delicious...The Chicken Reshmi Kebab was pick of the lot..even the garnishing salad was very tasty...
Diwan's Durbar is an amazing place with beautiful ambience and quality food at reasonable prices. The place looks good really classy with beautiful interiors as well as exteriors. The menu covers a wide range of cuisine including Chinese, Kerala, and north Indian. I had Chinese food which tasted right on point and it was a wonderful experience on the whole.
I love their ambience. It's a great place to dine. Food is well cooked.
Would prefer this place for a hangout as it's pretty spacious and serves good food.
Great food, delicious and reasonably priced. The place is wonderfully and properly maintained with good ambience. The service is also great.
Been here twice.
The food was always up to mark.
Quantity was not too much neither too little.
They only issue i had was the long waiting time for order to come. Other than that everything was supurb.
A Place for get together with friends or family. Good ambience, excellent service. Tasty variety of food @affordable rates. I recommend DDurbar.
I had dinner with my family. We had good food and beautiful time. We ordered dragon chicken as starters, chicken dishes n naan and desserts- fruit salad and fried ice cream. Overall good value time with great food. I loved the fried ice cream.

Food 4.5/5
Ambience 4/5
Service 3.5/5
The ambience is lovely , music is soothing .. had North Indian biryani , the wait was pretty long but finally when it came it was worth .. service could be little more better.. food is good.. had visited twice hopefully will come more .. keep serving good food 👍🏻
Been to this place twice. They have a great variety in the menu from North Indian, Chinese, to Kerala cuisine.
May be a little heavy on the price side. (?) because a normal pineapple juice was priced 120 RS. Other dishes I had like Garlic Paratha, Paneer Makhani, Schezwan Fish Chilli, Appam and Fish Moili etc were delicious and reasonably priced. A Rajasthani friend of mine certified to the authenticity of the North Indian dishes, so yeah!
First of all - Amazing food!
Good quantity and ambience.
They serve one of the best Nasi Goreng. For dessert I tried fried ice cream, though the outer crust wasn't that crispy but it tasted good.
Cons : they charge 100 bucks for fruit juices which you can easily get for half the price in other places.
Yummy food and awesome ambience.moreover this restaurant is kids friendly.Lahori paneer is the most yummiest dish which serve paneer with the thick and most tastiest gravy.Really loved the food.

Went for a team lunch and we loved the food. We ordered tandoori rotis, chicken rara, chicken Chettinad and chicken tikka biriyani. There wasn't much of a delay in their service. The price was also reasonable. Good work team.
Forgot to mention, they have ample parking space.
The place has a very decent ambience and gives a fine dining experience.Service is pretty good and the food is delicious as well ! There is nothing extraordinary about this place or food but everything is upto the standard and surely will not be disappointed . An ideal place for weekend family dinner.

Diwan's Durbar is an awesome place for an occasional exploration. A treat for the eye and a great trip for your taste buds.
[Visited thrice between late 2016 to early 2017. This review is thus about 8 months late]
Ambiance:
Their ambiance is one of the best I've ever seen. The beautiful vertical garden background, the interior work, and the furniture all contribute to an amazing experience. Great place for a family trip or even a date. It's also the most opted place for team lunches from the nearby infopark.
Food:
The food tastes great, especially the starters. The price is high, and the quantity of some items (Starters) should ideally increase to reflect the price. But every time I've visited, the food has tasted great. So, I'm happy.
Starters - Chicken Lollipop, Mongolian Beef and Dragon Chicken
The starters here are probably what I've enjoyed the most. Bring in some friends, choose few of the starters and eat to your heart's delight. Wish I could have more of the Chicken Lollipops. The Mongolian Beef and Dragon Chicken were juicy and delicious!!
Main Course - Chicken Fried Rice, Chicken Noodles and American Chopsuey
The main course definitely had sufficient quantity and tasted really satisfying. I remember having trouble finishing the chopsuey. Definitely a delicious experience. The fried rice was really good!
Desserts - Fried ice-cream, Chocolate, and Vanilla milk-shakes
Once again, an amazing treat. The fried ice-cream was definitely different and a nice new try. Just make sure you eat it quickly before the fried bread-like coating gets soggy. The milkshakes were delicious too.
Pros
* The best ambiance you can find
* Amazing starters!! Food tastes great
* A huge variety of options
Cons
* A bit expensive
Diwan's Durbar is a definite one time visit. I had a great time the three times I visited. Take your friends and family and go have a good time.
Been here twice....tried the fish curry meals n prawns roast.... was good.... gud ambience..... inactive bearers... an okay place to be in...
Loved this place. Again I tried the place based on Zomato’s review and I was not at all disappointed. Yummy food. Still feeling guilty of not clicking pictures. We had hot and sour chicken soup and chicken lollipops as starters. It was good. Then we ordered putty, egg roast and beef coconut fry as the main course. The beef was awesome. It’s been long since I had such yummy beef. Well done and the correct spice. We did order chicken tikka as well, which was fine. For dessert we ordered Ghulab Jamun. The Jamun was cylindrical shaped in comparison to the original round one. Ignoring the shape I took a bite and it melted in my mouth. Will come back just to have the Ghulab Jamun for sure.
I just love the ambience here. A fine dining experience at the cost of a bistro. Service can be improved a little. Decent Food but my personal favourite is the Tandoori Chicken. Best Tandoori Chicken I've had in Kochi, hands-down.
Diwan's Durbar rolls out some yummy North Indian dishes......I just love thier chicken lollypop but make sure you tell them not to dip and bring it as dry. We also tried their paneer lababdar and tandoori roti which was too good and all thier dishes are normally priced. Perfect ambience for a nice dinner
The paneer Butter masala, dal makhani and paneer lababdaar tastes heavenly. The architecture and greenery of this place is an added plus point. This place is a must visit for all the foodies out there.
Diwan's durbar has an awesome ambience, with ample parking space and serves just above average food! They seem to lack in consistent taste.
Their Dragon chicken was really good on our first visit. However, the chicken was overcooked and dry inside when we ordered it during our second visit a few weeks later! This time we also tried the Dragon fish. It was amazing!
In addition to normal biryanis, they also have north Indian biryani and tikka biryanis. They were all fine but nothing exceptional. Also the fish biryani (in any form) was just not that good. The fried rices are just mediocre.
They do have a big menu with lots of items. There are much more to be explored. Let's hope the other items on the menu could appeal more...
Great Ambience. Feels premium but has reasonable rates. Our favourite dish was the Monchov Fried Rice - seafood fried rice with a surprise. Best enjoyed with some side dish. Ample parking space. A good spot to enjoy with family.
Good pocket friendly place with fully packed people it took bit time for me to get table
And the appetizers was so yum And the main course disappointed me it was not so tasty as expected
Prompt service and seating arrangement and the way it's build us so simple and attractive.
For team outings and stuff they have special place on top and great to read that they even do homedelivery and outdoor caterings.
Was in search for North Indian food and finally my search ended here. Food here at Diwan's Durbar hit my north-indian taste buds correctly. We ordered Lahori Chicken, Butter Naan, North Indian Chicken Biryani. The food was delicious. Service fast and efficient. Decently priced. Will surely recommend this place for its North Indian Biryani .
Sexy place.
Awesome ambience and lighting.
Excellant service.
Family spot as well.
Chicken Lababadar and butter naan 👌👌
Too much of good food at decent price. ✌
The location of the restaurant is in Prime Upcoming part of Kochi. The Ambience and the Sea Food served here makes it even better. Must for a Sea Foodie.
I been to this place, quite a number of times. The lush greenery offered by itself, gives us a quick escape from the traffic and the city.parking lot was spacious. Dining area was simple and neat. Food was served hot, and was delicious. Right amount of spices combined with the courteous demeanour of the employees made my day. I am definitely going to this place again.
Regular customer at Diwan's Durbar..... Good place to dine.... Loved the Chicken tikka and Fish tikka Biriyani... Ambience is average.... One good thing is they accept food card for home delivery
The fish curry meals was good and the restaurant is mostly crowded during lunch time.The food took some time to arrive,i think they misplaced the order.We also ordered kozhuva fry,it was well fried to perfection.
Diwan's Durbar has a very good ambiance.Food is also good.I tried Chicken fried rice and Dragon chicken both taste good...Nice place to dine out.
Saturday dinner at Diwan's Durbar, it was great.
Had kadhai chicken, paneer tikka, garlic naan, ice cream, cold coffee, etc. All over the food was good. Only thing I would like to point out is that the dal tadka had less salt and garlic naan was little dry. Rest all was good.
This was my 2nd destination for lunch while visited Kochi for a customer visit. Tried few dishes and those were excellent. Specially the chicken kabab is a must-have dish. The main attraction for this place is they cleverly invested few but how decorated the place will attract you. Must try once.
Ambience is just perfect. Staff is really polite , can say that it's a bit posh. Pricing is just fine. The best porotta I have ever had is from here. I like the side dishes like butter chicken. I dint like the Chinese dishes over here, better places nearby for Chinese food. Tandoori chicken not upto the mark just ok. This is defenitely a good place to visit with your family.
I had dinner from here.I went for chicken fried rice and chicken tikka masala.Got it served instantly.The fried rice was good but the tikka was too salty . However dipping it in pudhina sauce made it s little better though.Great ambience,boring music, excellent service and on point pricing makes this place a one time visist for sure.Recommened!
I had kept an eye on this restaurant each time I pass by, but was reluctant to try due to bad reviews I saw in Zomato. But we thought of giving a try recently. Went there twice since then.
We tried their soup, kebab, naan, one special chicken dish for the day and noodles. The special one was a good one. All the other tasted average. But we were not disappointed as said in the reviews. But felt like service was a bit slow first time. But during the second visit I felt the service became much better.
Ambience was really good, I visited during night time. Felt that their north Indian cuisine is better over other items in the menu.
Diwan's Durbar is one of my favorites.
Food: It is the tastiest till now in kakkanad. North indian and chinese tastes very good which is very rare in Kochi. 4.5/5
Ambiance: Beautiful place with spacious garden and outer sitting space. Such a nice interior decoration. 4.5/5
Quantity: One starter and easily can fulfill 2. They are generous with their quantities. 4.5/5
Price: Price is reasonable for the quantity it fetches. Nice place to be with family and friends. 4/5
Specialty: Chicken drumsticks and veg crispy fry is must try.
Good restaurant with a nice ambience especially at night. Food is good too. I went with family and ordered for 1 cream of tomato soup, 1 chicken lung fung soup, 1 Hong Kong chicken, 6 chappathis and 1 chicken fried rice, lemon juice and ice creams. The food served was really fast and the quantity of each portion was good enough for 3 adults. Total bill was just 650 rupees.

I had one fine dining experience in Diwan's Durbar. This place looks really amazing and the food is totally adds up to make it a superb dinnerspot. This restaurant manages to impress me from the beginning to the end.
This restaurant has a great design. The exterior and the surrounding area well worked with a garden based setting. They have grown creepers on the walls to give it a modern and nice setting. The Royal Enfield in between the garden is almost like an icing on top. The lights and glass walls adds up to the beauty of this place.
Coming to the food I tried the Kalimirch Chicken Kabab which was good chicken didn't loose its moisture while grilling so I would called it one fine perfectly grilled kabab. Then the naan was okay and the kulchas was a little bit disappointing but it was manageable. The mutton Rogan gosh turned out to be really good, there was three huge chunks of mutton and enough gravy to fill two stomachs. Cooking this curry needs expert level experience and most of the restaurant fail in bringing it up. This is a must try in this place.
Coming to the price it's not steep normal affordable rates and worth every single penny as the quantity served in high compared to other places. The service is good and friendly which always a plus point to any restaurant.
Overall verdict, One pleasant place with a great ambience and really nice food. Everything is good over here. There are no room for complaints on this place. If you have girlfriend and you are confused and wondering where to take her out just don't think twice pop over here. No doubts she will love it.
One Must Try Place in Kakanad.
Nice restaurant with superb ambience because of its lighting in the evening.
Its a good choice for dining with great menu.
It also has good parking space.
Has tried meals.. biriyani, rotti and curry as well.. nice. :)
great place.
ambiance is good.
good service .
Gooood fooood
Tried the chicken patyala, n garlic naan...loved it.
and the kerala porotta is also great.
i used to love tea...and got a good one from diwans durbar!!!
Would definitely recommend this place ... Considering it was house full indicates its popularity. We ordered pepper chicken , dal tadka, handi chicken, baigan bartha and roti and naans. Each of the dishes was delicious and we throughly enjoyed our meal.
Wow nice food, yummm no comments... chicken kalimirch (pepper) was just amazing. Hot and sour soup was so different from usual, being a fan of hot and spicy food Diwans Darbar is on top spot. Can't explain, just go and experience. Looking forward for more.
My obsession with North Indian food is indulged quite frequently with this restaurant.
The babycorn and mushroom masala along with the garlic butter naan is to die for.
Nice food and an awesome ambience. The people serving are good in terms of their understanding about the food they serve. Also the variety available is high with lot of options for veggies too.
A nice place to dine in, with a great ambience. Food was delicious. Open kitchen view at the entrance is nice. Staffs were cooperative and the restaurant has enough parking space too.
The only problem was the mosquitos inside the restaurant. Installation of mosquito repellent will be helpful.
Simply yet chic ambience especially in the evenings. They have excellent staff and a great menu. It's a good choice for dining in a group as there's something for everyone on the menu. Food tastes great and is served in excellent time.
People staying in Kakkanad, who want to experience good north indian style food, I would recommend this place. Have visited this place multiple times and loved the food. The ambience is very good, specially at night. A good family place night out.
I have had food at various occasions here. Food during the main Kerala festival, Onam, is great. The flower decorations and the Onam Sadhya gives you the native feel. On other occasions, their food of the day is something one should look forward to. This time I had something called 'In-house Punjabi curry ' With 'kerala Parotta '. Hmmm.. Perfect combination. I guess, for me, it was north meets south. Enjoyed it thoroughly!
Date of visit: 4th April 2016
Time: 7 30 pm
I have been going by this way on my cab after work,and Have been thinking to dine in here,finally made it here.Me and my friend thought to explore this place,that's how we landed at this place.The lawn and entrance is well set to welcome you inside,and the ambiance and decor is good enough for you to dine in with your friends or family.We had ordered karimeen Polichede, chicken patiala and porotta and butter naan.The karimeen polichede wasn't up to the mark of what we get in alleppey side,its just so so,more of tomato masala taste in it.Chicken patiala was good and did make us enjoy the food with naan and porotta.
Service is good,friendly and we didn't have to wait for so long.
If you are looking for north indian or south Indian cuisine with a good dine in space and ample parking space in kakkanad,then you should definitely try this place.
Over all I would rate a 4.0 for this place in kakkanad!!!

This place has always made me turn back and see whenever I travel to edapally from our place. The ambience and exteriors always attracted me.
On a hot Saturday afternoon after my job interview at infopark, my husband and I were thinking what to do for lunch. No patience to travel till lulu mall or go to vytilla or thripunithura to have lunch at a good place. Then the only thing that struck my mind was Diwan's Durbar.
The extrerior and interior was very attractive. Ambience is good. So do their service. They have sufficient staff to serve.
Items are a little over priced, may be 40 or 50rs more that other places of similar standard. Cuisine is majorly North Indian. We can see their kitchen from the outside and the kababs hanging. We ordered chicken tikka biryani, chicken lolly pop, lime soda and pineapple lime. Items came within 10 to 15 mins of ordering. And that 10 mins also will pass away washing your hands and looking at their interiors and catching a glimpse of what people at other tables are eating.
Chicken lolly pop was the best. To exactly describe, it was crunchy, crispy and juicy with the spices at correct blend. No artificial colours were added unlike the usual chicken lolly pop. The biryani was more of North Indian style and yummy.
I loved the pineapple lime. Perfect ending.
We ordered just limited items as we were not in the mood to parcel the remaining. Ultimately, good place to take your entire family and eat.
P.S There is a very good fish cum vegetable store near to this restaurant, just 2 shops ahead. It was very easy for me to buy the week's veggies and fish for the weekend.
14th feb. Valentines day lunch with my gf. It was my 1st time to diwans durbar . I was quite confused what to order until I saw everyone sittig around my table goig for tandoor items. Even though I am not a big fan of arabic dishesh. I went for the audiance choice and to be frank I wasnt dissapointed . But my girl friends biriyani was not upto to the mark th,e rice and masala had a mismatch . The
ambiance inside the restaurent is simple amazing. I hope it will be much better at night. Next time for dinner
Conveniently located near civil station, this place provides delicious food, great ambiance and great staff. Quantity is great and that comes with really tasty food, so quantity and quality at its best. Pricing is a little to the higher end.
The place gives out a great peaceful vibe, a must visit.
This place attracted me from the moment i am located at Kakkanad.Beautiful ambiance. Service also was good. Naadan kozhi curry, porottas and roti were ordered. Nothing stands out about the food.
I wanted to rate it 4.0 but I m deducting 0.5 for one reason only, it's too noisy inside the restaurant. So much echo cause of all glass. But Restaurant looks beautiful cause of all glass n green plants outside glass. Food is good. And good place to dine if you can compromise to some noise n echo.
Fantastic place for dinner. Ambiance is good. People are very kind. Food is delicious. We tried chicken tikka, was delicious. Chicken fried rice was good. Parking space available. They have clean restroom. I definitely recommend this place if you are looking for dinner on the way to kochi from wonder la.
Diwans Durbar opposite the Civil Station kakkanadu is a peaceful place for dining. We went there as a family. The lawn in the front side which is filled with grass helped our restless kids to release some energy before the food. We visited there at night and the place was warm and lighted with string leds. The food was tasty. We tried Prawns Vattal , Chicken kadai,Appam, Butter Roti. Prawns Vattal was delicious and chicken was good too. Appam was a little sweet and Roti was average. Compared to other restaurants Diwans Durbar is spacious and peaceful.
Good food, good service and a very quiet and calm atmosphere. One of the decent restaurants in Kakkanad. Well maintained and very clean place. Food is also good in taste and quality. We had hot and sour chicken soup, Butter Naan and pepper chicken roast. Their service is also good.
We had manchow soup, konchi crispy chicken, dragon chicken and Gopi Manchurian as starters.
For the main course, we had manchow chicken fried rice and garlic chicken.
For dessert we had fried ice cream and gulab jamun.
All items were excellent and the ambiance was very nice.
The ambience ws awsome very calm and quiet atmos the lightings and the music was also good sync. Budget friendly cafe.
Feel that food is overflavourd thats the only prblm i found👍🏻
First of all nice ambience! Had a great lunch here.
Parking facility is limited. Also this place is not that much spacious.Talking about the food, starters are too good. Ordered chicken soup, chicken lollipop and dragon chicken. All are delicious. Coming to the main course some dishes disappointed and some are great. Also well mannered staffs. i wouldn't say it's a must visit place if you are in kakkanad!!
Good service and good ambiance. The place was calm and quiet.They got a spot outside specially for birthday celebration. We tried their chinese cuisine and was good.
This multicuisine restaurant(mostly north indian dishes) is located near kakkanad jn, opposite collectorate, ernakulam. Parking is available, though vehicles have to take a steep road to reach the place. Seating area is neat and clean, and the ambience is great, similar to fine dining. Ordered a variety of dishes(couldnt really take a pic of the food) and all the dishes were tasty. Some of the best dishes I tried there were the butter chicken, chicken tikka, paneer biriyani, schezwan fried rice and the dal tadka. Only issue would have been the service, which was a bit confused and disorganized.
Prices are a bit on the higher side, but overall, the place serves good food and very good ambience.
Nice ambient. It's a unique place.

* A bit expensive
Diwan's Durbar is a definite one time visit. I had a great time the three times I visited. Take your friends and family, and go have a good time.
Must visit place if you are in and around Kakkanad. They have a good variety of dishes all of which are vibrant in flavours and colours. The cuisine is predominantly Indian and Indo-chinese, with occasional South-East Asian Specials.
For a quick grab do try out their combos which are flavour packed.
The nestled away ambience is a great plus point too.
Good food and a quiet atmosphere. Ambience is ok, just that I felt, some maintenance is long overdue. Food tastes good, especially their North Indian dishes are worth making a visit to this place.
Situated opposite to the collectorate. This is situated at the side which is below the road.
Enough parking spaces. Good ambience.
Good Food where the North Indian Dishes a are on plenty. Good service and also good food too
Ambience is soo good that you don't want to come out of it. When you enter the restaurant all you see is greenery. They have landscaped the outside with hanging pots and just a glimpse is soothing. 6 - 7 A/c units keep the restaurant cold. You will have to wait for sometime to get your food to the table. Staff is friendly and price is not high for such a restaurant. They serve both south and north Indian food. I believe they have a good number of orders from swiggy too as we could see many swiggy delivery boys waiting outside. We had 3 fish curry meals and a beaf roast for Rs.650/- only which is economical. 10 - 12 cars can be parked inside their premises. Their proximity to Technopolis and InfoPark is definitely an advantage. They do accept group reservations for lunch or dinner parties.
