Quaint, quiet little diner. The wait staff is friendly and attentive.

I was looking to try a new restaurant on Wednesday night when I found “Gabbar”.. I was like interesting name & when I looked into menu & saw - Litti Choka- famous dish from Bihar state of India— I had to go & try this restaurant right away.. We made the reservation & were greeted by husband wife (chef & owners) of restaurant. They were super nice & explained us their take on food & dishes .. We ordered Aloo Tikki, litti chokha & Nga Soke lone Hin which a Burmese dish ( fish kofta in curry).. first arrived Aloo tikki which is potatoes cake with chutney [chef had them as 3 crisp cakes with 3 different chutneys)- a good start - then came the star dish-litti chokha ( spice filled dumplings) with eggplant & potatoes mash- it was amazing— very unique flavors- excellent dish & then fish koftas which were good too but Litti chokha is the star dish of this restaurant.. We are so glad that we have found an Indian restaurant which is focusing on regional cuisine/ dishes & trying to do something different as these dishes take tremendous amount of effort & techniques unlike standard orange looking curries.. We can’t wait to come back & try more dishes.. A hidden gem.. Go try it out & you won’t be disappointed— A MUST TRY!!!

Great food & great staff... I highly recommend Gabbar if you're in the area and enjoy Indian cuisine. It's easily the best I've ever had and you couldn't ask for friendlier, more helpful owners and staff.

Awesome place for dining out with family and friends. Friendly service and the owner is a great chef! Definitely recommend if you're looking for fine dining!

Had really delicious food each time. Very creative menu, not the usual Indian restaurant menu items. Food is cooked fresh after you place the order.
James Clerc
Delightful Indian and Burmese place. The owner/chef took some time to explain the menu and suggested options to enjoy a taste of a range of Indian cuisine. Very enjoyable!

The food was interesting and different. The environment is cozy. But please make your reservations or go on a week night. It's definitely worth a visit. BYOB.

Growing up just down the road from the building that now houses Gabbar, I never would have imagined a restaurant this interesting just down the street. I came back to Hillsborough for a visit, saw the "Gabbar - A Culinary Odyssey" sign, made a reservation and loved the place. Not only was the Indian cuisine interesting and delicious, the chef and owner came out to every table to chat, explain things and make us feel like family. If you are hungry, cruising up 206 and are in the Hillsborough area pull off and head for Gabbar.
Finally stopped into Gabbar for takeout the other night - huge portions, delicious food! Will definitely be back.

What a hidden gem this place is. Great food. Someone told me the prices are a bit higher but I found them reasonable specially compared to the portion size, very generous portions. So many novelties. Have tried kebabs in many places in jersey but this place takes it at another level. Litti chokha is a surprising delight. We were planning for Sunday brunch but the place opens only for dinner so that’s a bummer. Hope they open up all day atleast on weekends. Do try the Burmese dishes not the same indo Chinese food we get everywhere . We tried the fried rice-Kyaw Hcarr Saan and the chicken chilly both were very different then the usual indo Chinese. Biryani also was very flavorful and unlike most Indian places which are very heavy on garam masala this biryani was actually tasty. We had good old tea which was served in a nice tea pot and elegant cups. Desserts we had the chocolate temptation which was good too.

Every dish we ordered was made with care, detail and elegance . Loved the very charismatic chef-owner . Definitely not your everyday curry house and definitely not your everyday chef, much much beyond. BYOB. Will visit again for sure .
