Live BBQ Restaurant in Lahore at Darbar Rooftop
If you love BBQ, come and watch it being made. Darbar Rooftop is a live BBQ restaurant at 48 Baloch Road, Al Rehman Plaza, Main Bazar, Makkah Colony, Gulberg III, Lahore 54660, where your food is cooked in front of you in a see-through kitchen. Eat on the open rooftop or in the indoor hall. To reserve a table, call or WhatsApp 03091492999.
BBQ you can watch
Lahore takes its BBQ seriously, and so do we. At Darbar, the grill is not hidden behind a wall. Our see-through kitchen and live BBQ station let you watch the coals, the skewers and the chefs at work, so you know exactly how fresh your food is before it reaches your table.
It turns dinner into something to watch as well as eat, and children can watch the grill in action from the table.
A kitchen built for scale
Behind the grill is a 4,000 square foot kitchen and a team of 35 chefs. That size means the BBQ keeps coming even on a busy Saturday night, and the same kitchen that serves the restaurant also cooks for weddings of up to 450 guests. When you order, you are eating from a kitchen that handles Lahore's biggest occasions.
More than BBQ
BBQ is the star, but the menu covers the dishes Lahore families order together: chicken and mutton karahi, handi, and for the younger crowd, pizza and burgers. A table can mix and match, so everyone finds something they like. For larger groups, our family platter for four to six people is an easy way to share.
Rooftop or indoors
Eat on the open-air rooftop, which seats 150 guests with the city skyline around you, or in the indoor hall, which seats 300 under chandeliers. On warm evenings the rooftop is the natural choice; in the heat of the afternoon or on a cold night, the hall is ready. Dinner runs from 7 PM until 2 AM, so there is time for a late BBQ after a long day.
Planning a BBQ night for a group
BBQ is best shared, which makes it a natural choice for birthdays, reunions and office dinners. For a group, tell us the number of guests when you reserve and we will seat you near the grill, where the smell of the coals and the sight of the chefs at work become part of the evening. For very large groups, our banquet team can arrange a live BBQ set-up in the hall or on the rooftop.
Families with children often ask to sit where the young ones can watch the grill safely from their table. Mention it when you book and we will set your table accordingly.
Reserve your table
The best tables near the grill and on the rooftop edge go first. Call or WhatsApp 03091492999 in the morning to reserve for the evening. Darbar is 2 minutes from Liberty Market and 5 minutes from MM Alam Road, in the centre of Gulberg III.
