50 Best Indian Restaurants near Langley Park

“We were a group of 4 who spontaneously went for dinner. One of us is a vegeterian and we had to choose this but we were pleasantly surprised
We got appetizers, main course and dessert.
We got the Gobi Manchurian, pani puri, Spring dosa, Idli Vada, Biryani, Kulfi, Mango juice, madaras coffee and salted lassi amongst the 4 of us. The quantity isn't extremely high but it gave us an opportunity to try a larger variety.
According to my taste the food was more tangy than spicy but they gave good chutneys for the spice. everything looked and tasted fresh.
From what we ordered, the pani puri was very refreshing, Idli wada was really nice, and all of the beverages we tried were perfect. Special mention for the Madras coffee ❤️
Must try once, at least once“

“Authentic Indian cuisine served with care—RASA never misses. A flavorful escape right in the neighborhood.“

“Tastes just like my mom’s cooking, should try to know it.“

“After a full day of walking, we wanted something comforting for dinner. We’d seen reviews for Dakshin Indique and decided to give it a shot, even though it meant a 40-minute drive on a rainy Tuesday night. Honestly, it was worth it.

We ordered the Paneer Biryani, Chicken 65, and Chicken Biryani. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and had the right amount of spice—not overwhelming, just satisfying. Even though we’re only visiting DC, we’d definitely come back.“

“This is a good restaurant for having Vegetarian food. If you are reading this, I'd strongly recommend trying them. I liked the ambience, service and the food quality. They were welcoming and responsive. I couldn't tip them as I was in a rush, doing my bit by writing here.“

“There is no better Indian food for hungry people! They held and seated us, a 10 person party, until the end of the restaurant hours with cheer.

Reasonably priced for sharing food, and you’ll want to get a bit of everything. The crackling spinach has such a unique tamarind flavor, it is a must try.

We come here after a lot of our New Morning Farm farmer’s markets, and they never disappoint. Highly recommend!!“

“Good food and good service“

“It is really good good with good quantity Very friendly staff and good at explaining their menu Must try“

“Great food and Barman !! It is a great place“

“Food was great. Overall satisfied with the meal. Wait staff was quick and friendly. Worth a visit. Only way it could be improved is to have citronella candles on the table. There are no candles on the tables outside. Be sure to tip generously!“

“The best Punjabi food in DC. G.O.A.T Room brings the rich flavors of Punjabi/ Indian food here to DMV. They have every dish (fish, goat meat, naan,butter chicken) that I tried there…the BEST that I ever had. I had tried over 100 of restaurants in DMV and no one can beat this. Punjabi food is known for its rich and buttery flavors and G.O.A.T Room uses only fresh spices and herbs, such as turmeric cloves, ginger, and garlic. The owner, Bobby has created an extraordinary dining experience that brings this special food and culture right to DC. Bobby will visit your table and discuss your meal and personally thank you for coming in. He made a wonderful suggestions of food and drinks.. we were amazed with that selections. Butter chicken has a creamy gravy made of onions, yogurt, seeds, and did not disappoint. The goat meat was the best I’ve ever eaten. Naan and everything was perfect and not too oily at all. The portions are good sized and the presentation is exceptional. The atmosphere is lovely with authentic decor, and smartly set tables but mostly it’s the staff’s hospitality that amazed us. Bobby and his team has accomplished what they have set out to do and that is to bring the best food to the people of DMV. With the rich flavors, fresh, spices, freshest yogurt, and love and care in every dish- they have succeeded. Will be making more trips to DC just for their yummy food! Highly recommended. 10 stars. Food: 5/5 | Service: 5/5 | Atmosphere: 5/5“

“feel home even far from home good food and service ❤️👍“

“First I would like to say that I wish there were more than 5 stars. My son and I are visiting the DC area for the Cherry Blossom festivities. My son has a love for Indian food ever since his trip to India. I have never tried Indian food ever. So this was my very first experience. From the moment we walked in the door our amazing experience began. The atmosphere is beautiful and so is the staff. Our server, April was super helpful and very knowledgeable. She has an amazing spirit and is wonderful with her job! The food... was very fresh, aromatic and DELICIOUS!! My son said the food was the closest to the food in India that he has had here in the states. For my first time... OMG!!! I am HOOKED! The only bad part is that I have to go back to Florida and wait impatiently for my next visit.“

“I just ordered Oh! Naan for the first time and I am very impressed! The chicken masala (medium spice) was delicious. The spice level was spot on and the overall flavor was fantastic. The chicken pieces were all tinder and the portion was very large. I also had garlic naan (which I got buy one get one free). It was soft and warm with the perfect amount of garlic and butter.

I ordered the food on an app for pick up so I can’t speak to the atmosphere, but the food was ready quickly, packaged well, and the ladies who helped me during pick up were very friendly. The food was still very warm and fresh even after my ten minute walk home.

I’ll totally eat here again, and would recommend others trying it out“

“We had a great experience at Delhi Spice in Bethesda. The food was absolutely delicious — we tried the Delhi Papri Chaat, Paneer Makhani, Fig Kofta, Daal Tadka, Onion Kulcha, and Garlic Naan. Every dish was full of authentic flavor and cooked to perfection.

The staff was very accommodating. We mentioned we had kids with us, and the gentleman taking our order made sure their food came out first — really thoughtful service!

Parking is a bit challenging in the area, but we parked in the Giant store lot behind the restaurant, which worked out fine.

Highly recommend this place if you're looking for tasty Indian food in Bethesda.“

“I just had my 2nd absolutely DELICIOUS Indian dinner at Virraaj on Cordell. My husband noticed what he thought was a new restaurant across from the public parking last week so we went there for our Wednesday date nite. We went earlyish and only a couple other tables were taken when we arrived but by the time we left at 6:30 ish it was just about full so best to make reservations. Even with many diners, it was still easy to talk to each other and be heard. I started w/ the AAM Palak Chaat appetizer which I had first tasted at Rasika and have ordered every time I have seen it on a menu. Definitely rivaled Rasika's and the portion was big enough to share w/ my husband as an appetizer. My main was the Murgh Bahak/ Kadai Chicken. So tender, so tasty with onion and green and red bell peppers, delicious brown sauce w/ terrific spices plus a little spicy kick. I ate as much as I could and still had left overs for 2 lunches at home. My husband ordered a lamb dish he enjoyed and finished every morsel including the rice. I saw some reviewers would have liked more rice. We had plenty with our meals so maybe they are giving more w/ each dinner. The waiter was attentive, professional, courteous and nice. The restaurant itself was classy & beautifully appointed - you could tell someone put a great deal of thought and money into designing it. This week we had friends visit who live in VA, within walking distance to Clarendon. We always go there for Indian food because there are so many good Indian restaurants to choose from but they were excited to try Virraaj from our comments about how much we enjoyed it. Before ordering takeout, I called and spoke to Jenni 3 times because I wanted to order what I had ordered last week but couldn't remember the name. She could not have been kinder or more patient in helping me figure out that it was the Kadhai Chicken. It may not seem like it from this review but I am a picky eater - happy to pay any price (just about ) for good food but am too often disappointed in Bethesda. Virraag got the highest marks on everything important to me: service, food, and ambiance - all of us enjoyed our meals and noone was disappointed. We ordered pickup for 4 main dishes including my fav Murgh Bahak/Kadai Chicken, Butter Chicken, Lamb Tawa Masala and Hariyal Murgh Tikka, naan and roti. All went on 2 big lazy susans on the dining room table and we kept on spinning, tasting and enjoying. The wife of the other couple always orders the Butter Chicken and kept on saying how moist and delicious the chicken was tonight. We all tried and liked everything - - not one complaint. So glad that we have a great Indian restaurant to go to and take friends to and not worry that anyone is not going to enjoy -- it is that good!“

“Great food Butter chicken was particularly good“

“We ordered enough food for five people. The lamb shank and lamb chops were great. I didn't fully like the vegetarian options. Forgot to take pictures of the main course and appetizers. Though the desserts were awesome except for the gulap jamun.“

“When I first heard "Indian Pizza" I was skeptical but this place absolutely shines. The Butter Chicken and Chicken Tikka pizzas are phenomenal. If you've had a Buffalo Chicken pizza before, it's along those lines. We also tried a Palak Paneer pizza, which shouldn't work at all but somehow does. I have yet to try "actual" Italian food there, but for fusion and Indian things, it's a great pick.“

“I ordered a number of biryani’s and my guests and I loved them. On May 11, 2024, I ordered the fish biryani and I can assure you it the best I have eaten for a long time. Would recommend this restaurant.“

“This was our first time at Spice Street. We were thoroughly impressed by the atmosphere and absolutely by the food! The staff was very friendly! We absolutely recommend this restaurant!!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Best in town for food and drinks.“

“Nice food good service and good prices“

“After having being to the silver spring location I decided to cater my event from Kati roll wala. I am super pleased with the experience and all my guests loved the food. I totally loved the paneer roll and the chicken cilantro roll. I got the bite size samosa and the flavors and the size was perfect. Arun is amazing and helped in making sure that the food was exactly per my expectations. Thank you so much for catering my event. Can't wait to try other items in future.“

“Amazing customer service delicious food and fast service please go check it out“

“I recently visited Bombay Street Food Express 3 and it truly exceeded my expectations. The ambiance was warm and welcoming, with a clean and cozy interior. The staff was incredibly attentive and friendly — from the moment we walked in until we left, we felt well taken care of.

The food was absolutely delicious. We ordered the Butter chicken, chicken Tikka masallah, Bombay palak chat, madrasfish curry, lam Rogan Josh, sag paneer, Dall Makhani, Butter Naan, Garlic Naan and Mango lassi and it was perfectly cooked and full of flavor. The presentation was beautiful, staff is very friendly and every bite tasted fresh and thoughtfully prepared. The portion sizes were generous, and the prices were fair for the quality.

Whether you’re looking for a place to enjoy a quiet dinner or celebrate a special occasion, Bombay Street Food Express 3 is an excellent choice. Highly recommended — I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Authentic Indian cuisine served with care—RASA never misses. A flavorful escape right in the neighborhood.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 – A Hidden Gem for Biryani Lovers! Curry and Pie is hands down one of the best Indian restaurants I’ve ever visited! Their chicken and lamb biryani are absolutely phenomenal perfectly spiced, incredibly flavorful, and cooked to perfection. You can truly taste the authenticity and care in every bite.“

“It was my first time there. Food was great. I would definitely return.“

“During my recent visit to an authentic Indian restaurant, I had an incredibly delightful experience. The food served was exceptionally fresh and made with great care, lending it a truly homemade flavor. The variety of flavors in each dish was absolutely outstanding, and I found myself thoroughly impressed. I am eagerly looking forward to my next visit - it has definitely earned an A+ rating in my book!“

“The food is amazing! I highly recommend everything!!“

“Amazing food, great service, clean and sanitized restaurant“

“Love to sit at the bar. The Manager is such a great guy! He plays amazing music each time I’ve been in, and the food is wonderful!! He works so hard— I am amazed and inspired by his work ethic!!“

“Great Indian-Nepalese restaurant in Bethesda. Ordered the chicken Biryani along with Chili chicken and garlic naan. The Biryani was well prepared and fresh. The chili chicken had an abundance of flavor. It wasn't too spicy either. Our server was very kind and gracious. Will come back next time I'm between Baltimore and DC.Best food and best service“

“Visiting DC with family and they mostly prefer Indian food. Went out of our way, stumbled across this place and we’re so glad we did. Generous portions, best butter chicken (perfectly sized tandoori chicken pieces in creamy sauce) I’ve had in the USA, the cucumber and tomato topping adds the perfect crunch, freshly baked naan and overall, quite reasonably priced for the DC area. Everything tasted so fresh. I wish they got more business. Highly recommend to give them a try :)“

“A friend of mine recommended to try Indian express and boy was he right! I dined in, Kumar was on top of me explaining the food and always checking up. Their shrimp Biryani Was fantastic . Reasonably priced, spiced and delicious. Great customer service. Bring cash if you’d like a 10% discount off. I am looking forward to their buffet in the future. Definitely recommend to anyone! Thank you, Indian Express!“

“stumbled across this place and it was a hidden gem. The food was delicious. I had a spicy chicken dish and my son had a spicy lamb dish with garlic naan bread. very good“

“7/30/24 - something changed! (in the neighborhood ?). Their everything bowl now includes all 3 meat options! Yay! 4 stars for sure!

----------
Good portions, good food, good price. Service is friendly and quick. Ambiance is mall food court, with lots of energy and people moving about. The taste, though, isn't as flavorful as I would expect from Indian food, and while they have 2 choices of meats, they could be more generous with the servings.“

“Always a dependably solid meal. The folks working here are super friendly and do a great job. And they have good music playing, but it’s not too loud where you can’t have a conversation.

Vegetarian options: They have as many vegetarian main options (paneer, sweet potatoes, cauliflower) as they do other proteins.“

“Food is great! Employees are also great! I am a regular who often comes in for my lunch break I am always greeted nicely by Leslie, she creates such a positive atmosphere for the place. The food is so good, and so are the drinks my go to will forever be the mango lassi.“

“I will say that this place is a MUST visit! I was thoroughly impressed by the ambiance, the service and most importantly the food! Every bite was delicious and left me wanting more. We had the four course menu and it was enough food that everyone in our party felt satisfied and even a bit full. The service was great too! They brought out each course promptly and we enjoyed the attentiveness and attention to detail. Indian food has never tasted so delicious! I hope to return again soon!“

“Excellent food and service.“

“Before trying Sacrificial Lamb, I recall walking past the restaurant many times while they had a banner up touting their naan as the best in the city. Hard to believe, given the size of the place, and abundance of quality Indian cuisine in the DMV. Over a period of several years and many dishes, well beyond the best Naan, I’m a believer. They have all the essential dishes you’d expect and they’re tasty but the curry dishes are exceptional. Whoever is making the sauces has serious skills. Mackni, Korma, masala, vindaloo, all delicious with abundant portions and quality components. Rich flavorful sauces that don’t separate and seasoning that is layered and surprising. Excellent vegetarian dishes too. Aloo gobi was a favorite. Even this basic dish had a bit of a sauce to it. They also catered to my dietary restrictions without issue. One recommendation— order later in the day. It seems the sauces and seasonings only get more enjoyable as the day evolves. Take out is done well, with sizable portions and seemingly no lost quality. Don’t miss the naan. It’s extraordinary and was always delivered warm. They also do naan wraps which are exceptional late night. Dip a wrap in the Mackni sauce, so decadent. I recently moved and have not been able to replace this little gem.“

“Being vegetarian, we ordered veg Momo's and veg biryani, and they both were super delicious. Veg options aren't significant, however, the available veg options are sufficient. If you are around this area, you should definitely try this small restaurant. Self service.
We are onsite and ordered to-go for the next day.

Inside seating available. Roadside limited parking.
Restrooms are available for customers.“

“delicious food“

“This is terrific take-out food. The portions are generous; the food reliably excellent. Be sure to get the spinach appetizer. It's better than the version at Rasika, and so large you have left-overs. Reheated for 15 minutes at 350 in the oven, it's even better the next day.“

“I had the lunch today and the variety of dishes and the tastiness of the food were excellent. Highly recommend this great Indian restaurant.“

“Had a very delicious meal yesterday with some friends. The food, service and ambience were top notch. Interesting cocktails too. They have done some renovations which give the place a very youthful and vibrant look. I will definitely be back.“

“Central & southern Asian food makes me happy. This is some of the best in Virginia. You must come to the buffet to try a few things, and come back with a date for supper. I typically enjoy lamb karahi but also many of the vegetarian options. The owners are very nice.“

“Their food is amazing, the atmosphere of the place is really cool. It looks very nice decorated. They have different kind of Naans. You know an indian restaurant is good when the chef is from India. And this is one of those. Come and enjoy! 😊🤤“
