So I went at the Gulshan branch with my friends for lunch.What I disliked was the sandwich that I ordered. It was not tasty.Their Singaporean rice were the best.Mac n cheese is a satisfactory option too.About the shakes, they were good but not something to order must.Dessert 4/5What I liked there was the cozy colourful environment. A funky place for teenagers or the young people.

The ambiance and presentation is good but the food quality is below average. Fish and chips (the fish is coated very hard which might be probably the excess of rice flour). The Afghani pulao is poor, even the BBQ platter is pathetic in taste and quality both. Only thing they bring good in quality to the table is mint lemonade drink. The restaurant is over priced. Staff is good and cooperative. Funniest thing is the water tumblers are of plastic material. The menu is incomplete however there are items available which are not mentioned in the menu e.g. karahi.

I had an excellent experience way back when the restaurant had just opened up. The owner is actually the son of my neighbor which is pretty cool. Food was awesome and we also got a discount on the bill!!!

Visited Urban Tarka today. Experience was okay, ordered BBQ platters, Chicken Shashlik & Pizza Fries.In BBQ platter Chicken tikka was 8/10, Malai Boti was 5/10 because it wasnt as creamy and soft as it shouldve been, but Seekh kababs were 10/10.Chicken shashlik was 5/10 my mum makes better than them.Pizza fries were 6/10 because fries werent even properly fried and topping was just okay. (Forgot to take the photo).

Not very satisfying. Quantity was below average but bigger concern was the taste. Koyla karahi was Good rest was poor. Customer service and checkin up on our table if we need anything was non existent. We needed to wave furiously for everything. Disappointing overall. Dont think will go there again. Unless drastic measures are taken .

Visited this place, they Offering great taste and quality food at reasonable price.We were there for a party where the host ordered many food item, but I like Beef #BarBQ and Chicken #Steak there. Service was fast and staff was friendly, and the restaurant is Partially #Accessibile for Wheelchairs and for the people with different abilities, because there is a small step before entrance.#letsguide

Tried the restaurant for the first time, it became the last visit. The food isnt all good. Every dish is laden with excessive sauces and gets overwhelming. The staff is responsive, but not enough to even ask if the customers need help.

Had my brothers valima for around 100 people. The service and the food was great. Usually the food in buffet is not good, but Urban tarka was surprisingly delicious. Got a floral arrangement done with extra charges.

I visited once there as this place was advertised on masla tv so my mom want to do dinner there as it was away from our home but we did dinner there.There service is prompt. The interior was very unique & stylish usually we didnt see such type of innovative interior that was considerably selected.The food was scrumptious & fresh.We ordered special chicken handi,Malai boti.The ingredients were different and mom discover what some special ingredients like khas,kaju,almonds are added in it that are rarely used in handi and that really enhances our tastebuds.No artificial ingredients or flavour was added.We view the menu in detail and observed that it is an ideal place for working ppl specially during the lunch time as they specially make ideal deals.The price was economical.

We ordered Balochi karahi, barbq platter, egg fried rice beef pepper sauce, lasagna. Karahi was good, tikka was over grilled, there was so much black pepper in sauce. Lasagna was so chilly. Sitting arrangement was good. I rate four stars because of karahi & sitting arrangement.

Urban tarka has a neat cosy environment with staff ready for service at all times. The drawback is the pricing as it costs on the higher side compared to the quality of food served. The variation of food quality can be easily observed. It can be a pleasant experience once but be elsewise the other time.
