Amazing dining experience, the bartender makes awesome drinks, and the Indian food is some of the best I’ve had. Vegan options are clearly marked. Perfect for a night!

I love the food especially the vegetarian dishes. Watch out for the prices though - they added a 15% service charge (i.e. price increase) to everything. So a $22 meal was $27 after the fee and taxes.

This place was absolutely amazing, i’ve been meaning to go here for ages and it did not disappoint. The prices are a bit high, but it’s DC and the food is incredible. We got the spicy keema curry and the Indigo special, both of which were incredibly flavorful and delicious. Spice level is manageable and quite enjoyable. The mango lassi was also superb. I wish I had asked for plain rice, I didn’t realize that the rice would come with a chickpea sauce thing on top, but I blame that on user error rather than the restaurant.

The food was great! I especially loved the papadum, since not many Indian restaurants serve it, it was a really nice touch.

The food was incredibly average unfortunately. Id go as far as saying the butter chicken was pretty bad. It had a very light color and little flavor, and i even asked for extra spicy! it was $30 for an entre & bread for “casual” Indian with no waiter. Id rather go to Rasa or just go to a nicer place and pay a little more. Not worth it. I can see it being a good vibe at night to share drinks and food with friends because the outdoor space is very nice.

Food seems way too mild. Way too expensive for the small portion size. There are much better Indian places in town.

Cool….. mostly clean atmosphere. But….. 25 dollars for this? And what’s up with the horrible payment process? You’re really going to charge me three dollars processing fee while I’m sitting right there in your restaurant. I have to take time to enter credit card numbers into a portal?
The prices are too high, and the effort is too much.
One of the best restaurants in DC for Indian food. The service and atmosphere could be better, but the food is very good.

If I was bleeding out on the street and someone said “I can either call an ambulance or give you Indigo fried paneer”…..I’d have to really think about it. Highly recommended.

Entire atmosphere and the food reminded me of Delhi! Loved the authenticity of flavor too! Absolutely worth it. Wishing for them to expand to NYC soon!

Dining at Indigo, a Michelin-recognized Indian restaurant in Washington, D.C., is a truly pleasant experience. The ambience is cozy and welcoming, just like a home-style kitchen, with the rich aromas of traditional Indian spices all pervading. All dishes reflect the simplicity and depth of home-cooked meals from various regions of India. From flavorful curries and aromatic biryanis to freshly baked naan bread, each bite transports you to the vibrant world of Indian cuisine. Indigo is perfect for those seeking an authentic taste of India in the heart of Washington, D.C.¹
