“I would recommend takeout. Flavors were good. Pretty greasy, but that's what I ordered. The place was kind of unappealing - water on the floor, looks like they are part way through converting from whatever it used to be, wobbly tables.“
“We came here after it was recommended to us by one of our friends. Honestly the food is good but the portions are small, which will make you want to order more food. For three people bill was over $300 and that is without any drinks. So be prepared to spend more than you expect. Other than that everything else was good.“
“If you walk into a famous restaurant, you tend to like the food anyway! If you walk into a restautant that is not at a very upmarket location, you expect it to be an average restaurant too. But, this restaurant is a hidden gem! At the first look at the menu, it appears that items have been given fancy names to fetch higher prices. But when you eat the food, you will find that it is a class apart!You get a dining experience. The staff is courteous, and friendly. The tables are far apart enough to give you privacy.They have a good selection of non-veg items (but I am a vegatarian). Among vegetarian items, you don't find the usual permutations of limited items - the dishes are unique! The dishes are served just at the right temparature. The gravey is so well made that it tastes homegenous- you can't tell spices separately. The serving size is enough for one person. We tried a couple of paneer dishes - they use homemade paneer, and it just melts in the mouth!Just like other places where it is hard to find entrees without onion-garlic, the chef made Paneer butter-masala for me. Because this is what I usually get wherever I go, I can say that it was the best I have eaten anywhere!The food is worth every dollar you spend. I think they will become the best restaurant in the subarban DC.Vegetarian options: There are a few Panner items, dal fry but not usual permuatations of paneer, gobi, matar, and aloo! Very well made and served.“
“A BIRYANI PARADISE WITH A GREAT WELCOMING TOUCH.This place is a gem for anyone looking to indulge in some of the best biryanis. They also do catering events where we had Chicken Keema Biryani, Goat dum biryani, and chicken lollipops. For vegetarians, they even had Jackfruit Biryani, Paneer Biryani. The warmth and hospitality of the owner and his personal engagement with guests reflects a commitment to excellence that is truly commendable. It is located inside Lotte Plaza Market.Must try: Goat dum biryani, chicken lollipops“
“Vinod made our first visit pretty exceptional. He recommended dishes based on our preferences & we absolutely loved our food.Only con, it would be nice to see the front having some additional help. The tables weren’t clean & I only saw one guy bringing out the food, taking orders & running back to the kitchen to help out!“
“We went for a date here after my husband was looking for something close to Chantilly but different. Oh wow! The food was so fresh and hot and phenomenal! We love Indian food so tried the butter chicken tacos and masala burrito. The chips and salsa kept coming as quickly as we asked. I can not wait to return!“
“Bollywood themed Indian snacking place on Elden street. You will find plenty of parking outside and the place is also friendly for wheelchair or stroller entrance. The staff is very friendly and they serve you with smile. They are kids friendly too. They have self service where they call your bill token number and you have to collect your food from counter. The whole place has a 90s Bollywood theme. Every table top is laminated with 90s Bollywood movie posters. You will find more of the North Indian snacks here. We tried masala chai which was tasty full of cardamom taste with bread pakoda. The bread pakoda looked like they have refried it but it tasted as exactly as Indian food stalls sell. We also tried their dabheli but can feel it was so so not that tasty. It only has masala potatoes in it no crunch. The chutney’s server was also so watery. So would not suggest to try their dabheli but you can try other things. There chole bhature looks amazing so probably we will try it next time. They have small juice center too inside. You can get fresh fruit juices here and tasty tasty falooda also and if you are bored go try their game room. Check it out soon“
“Came in late Tuesday night around 10:35. The gentleman at the desk was very polite and informative, as this was my first time. The food is delicious along with perfect craftsmanship. 5 stars across the board. Thanks for a great late night experience. I'll be “
“Both the service and cuisine were very delicious. This is a small family run business seems very far to table very homemade style authentic dishes that are meant to make you feel at home I would highly recommend what’s 12 out of 10 is the caramel ice cream even if you’re not a big dessert person you must try it’s made in house. It is AMAZING. I simply would just go back for the dessert and the service.“
“We picked up food here and boy did it delight! Flavorful, large portions and well packed to bring home and eat hot. The vegetarian options (samosas and vegetables in Indian gravy) did not disappoint. Butter chicken was melt in your mouth tender and juicy.“
“The food was high quality and tasted amazing. The thing that set my experience apart was the customer service. There was a mistake with one of our orders that caused it to take longer than usual. The manager came over to explain and apologize and gave us an order of another dish to eat while we waited. We will be coming back many more times! The value for the quantity and quality of the food was also very good. Highly recommend checking this place out!“
“LUNCH BUFFET IS WEEKENDS ONLY Went here for lunch on a weekday. They served me a water bottle instead of a glass with ice, which I found odd. Unsure if that's their normal method or if there's a problem with the water supply. I ordered chana masala and an order of garlic naan. Hot, fresh, and fluffy. Was hoping for a strong garlic flavor but it was very faint. The naan itself was excellent, but the garlic portion was not. The chana masala portion was very generous. I ended up having a snack's worth of leftovers. Flavor wise it was ok, nothing special. There were some herbs that I didn't quite like the taste of, as they sort of clashed with the rest of the ingredients. Overall, I had a decent lunch here. Can't really recommend but also can't knock the place. My return depends on how good the other Indian restaurants in the area are.“
“Nice place and good food.Hard work pay off things .really appreciate your beautiful journey.this house story can b a good example for ppl who wants L’Oréal time motivation!! Lots of good wishes to the the entire team/souls and master minds brother-sister !! Congratulations!! (Arif ,Producer NRB ,4M )“
“This place has the best north Indian food in Sterling. The garlic naan and malai kofta are amazing and they always customize the spice levels perfectly. The white rice is always very fragrant and cooked to perfection. The mango lassi here is one of the best I’ve tried and the indo chinese is also great. The prices are very reasonable. Be sure to try this place if you love good Indian food.“
“What a treat! And a delightful atmosphere. We decided to forego the brunch menu and ordered a la carte. Every entree was full of delicious spices. For Sunday lunch we ordered:Palak Paneer - creamed spinach with garlic and chunks of paneer cheese, Murg Makhni (butter chicken), Malwani Pulav - rice with coconut spices and mixed veggies and garlic naan. Every dish had just a hint of spiciness but one can also dial up on the heat. We loved the food and the gracious service.“
“This is the Cheesecake Factory of pizza places, you can find any topping whatever you like - from Hawaiian to Italian to Pakistani with a tiki masala twist!To top it all off, the hospitality is the equivalent of a family waiting for you to give you that fresh New York style home made pizza!Best part is they got Halal too ?“
“I stopped for office lunch with colleagues. Hands down the best Pizza place in the area. Food quality and taste top notch. One of the very few Pizza places with lot of dine in space and very good vibe. Service was pretty good and staff were pretty accommodative. I will definitely be back to try more pizza flavors.“
“One of the better South Indian restaurants I have been too. The thali is very good. Also their dosai is exceptional as well but my personal favorite is the vazaki baji. The service is very good as well and are open to make accommodations as needed.“
“Easy to monitor the spice level of all meals. Outstanding service & atmosphere. Quality of food was fresh and obviously well prepared with attention to detail. Great wine and drink selection, not a tap house. Lots of parking in rear of bldg, rare in CC.Parking: Parking lot behind/east of building. Lots of spaces.“
“Celebrated a birthday party. Owner was so kind and nice in helping with all our requests. They have music system and disco lights for a perfect dance party. Food was delicious. Service was excellent. Nice indian decor. Great place for birthday parties.“
“The food was amazing. We went as a large group and the service was fast.One suggestion is to improve the cleanliness of the restaurant. I saw a bug crawling on the table.Food - We ordered veg snack platter, kadhai paneer, bhindi masala, bread basket. Everything was perfect. The piping hot garlic naan was delicious.“
“This was my first time visiting this location (in person). I feel like I may have ordered from them via Uber Eats before (I cannot confirm nor deny this..). It almost next door to Lotte, so figured why not check it out. Staff was very friendly/accommodating.They have SO MANY preparations/variations of Biryani. I was curious about most of them, but unfortunately, there weren't any pictures available online or on the menus. I've never had (or heard of) jackfruit biryani, but we will definitely try it next time, Malabar style.We decided to play it safe and get the Malabar veg biryani, medium spicy. It was tasty, no weird veggies in it.I wish they would add pictures of the different variations or provide details of each preparation on the menu or online.“
“A good place to have some Malaysian food in Centreville, Virginia. The service was good and the food was great. No regrets on either point.Of course like any other Malaysian restaurant, we had to order Roti Canai from the appetizer menu and it was amazing. My son just loved the hot, fresh, flaky roti that he asked to order more. We also ordered Chicken Satay which was nice, juicy and flavorful.For the main course, we ordered Malaysian style fried rice which is a combination of chicken, shrimp and tofu as well and comes with pan fried egg on top. Definitely worth it. We also ordered Beef Rendang and Nyonya curry fish fillet. Fish was good but the curry was a little on the saltier and sour side. Believe it might have been tamarind or something similar to give that sour taste. Beef Rendang definitely was on the top with Roti Canai. Tender pieces of beef in a spicy curry. A must try.The prices were reasonable not extravagant like we see nowadays and the quantity was good for the price.Anyone looking for a Malaysian restaurant which is not too fancy, not expensive but has good service and good food, check this one out.Parking: Plenty of parking in the shopping plaza.Kid-friendliness: There were families with the kids and the kids seem to be enjoying their time.My kids are a little older but they enjoyed the food especially Roti Canai.“
“Inside of the Indian Bazar, the staff is really nice, they gently introduce you thousands of choices on the menu, I like to order Boneless Chicken and Goat Biryani. You can seat on the dining area to eat, and here’s also have other Indian food and desserts that you can buy. One thing need to remember is they do not open on Monday.“
“We ate the Rajasthani Thali (on Friday) and it was amazing. The daal baati was one of the best I've eaten in my life (including in India). The gatta subzi and rasmalai were also really good. Definitely recommend this place for soul fulfilling Indian food.Our only complaint was the service, which can be improved so that customers are not left waiting.“
“I used to come to this restaurant more often, so it has been here for what feels like decades! Like most Indian restaurants these days, they only have buffet on the the weekend. Service was exceptional and the restaurant was very clean.We ordered the lunch specials, one butter masala and one butter chicken. Both came with naan and a side to choose from (lentils or chick peas). The naan was so perfectly cooked, I couldn't stop eating it alone. The actual curries were small portions, but being that we had the sides, it was sufficient. I would love to return for the buffet one day when I am back in the area.“
“Tried bombay bites for the first time. Food was very good and looked fresh to me. The price was very reasonable at this current inflated market and compared to other restaurants. This desi restaurant deserves more promotion across all DMV areas. I would surely recommend to anyone.“
“Our family stumbled upon this restaurant while walking to the clay cafe near-by. This family-business is very kind and the food is SO yummy that we went back again today for lunch and ordered two combo curries which includes naan and rice. We left with full bellies and happy kids:)“
“The most authentic it gets. The Nepali dumplings were the star of the show. Try the pepper chicken too, it's absolutely delicious. The owners were so kind and the food was FRESH. Quite literally an amazing food experience. The samosas were so flavorful and I SWEAR someone the best we've ever had.“
“Had tasty maharashtrian style masalebhaath garnished with dry coconut !Felt like home away from home ! We received a full meal packaged food comprising of masalebhaath,raita,mix veg,chapati,Gulab jamun and mini samosa delivered to Veena World Tours & Travels on our East Coast USA Trip! Prompt delivery at our hotel at Springs Hill Suites at Gaithersburg,MD.Sumptutous meal after a long tiring journey,quantity was satisfying and felt homemade!! Highly recommend their catering and meal services.“
“Zameer was a very good waiter, always on top of getting us drinks, and making sure our meals are perfect. He's very funny and sweet, and the restaurant itself is clean and tidy. Zameer is one of the best people that I've ever encountered in the restaurant industry.“
“I really love the food from Jimisha’s kitchen! Veg Pulav, Sabudana wada any paneer curry are the best items. There are plenty items available Indo- Chinese food , Pav bhaji , kachhi dabeli are also yummy!I really impressed with quality of the food along with service and cleanliness at kitchen.I highly recommend Jimisha’s kitchen!!Vegetarian options: Food is prepared in Vegetarian kitchen and plenty food options of all kind of India, Indo-Chinese dishes also breakfast and snacks items.Dietary restrictions: Jimisha takes care for Dietary restrictions when you let her know in advance.Kid-friendliness: Yummy food for kids according to their spice level!“
“My family ate here today and the food and service were wonderful. We had several of the grilled entree combos, keema naan, and a paratha roll. The tortilla the roll was on was a perfect consistency and buttery taste. While my kids did not care for the keema naan, I absolutely loved it. Food quality and quantity of the grilled meals was excellent.“
“Good food and great service. Saarang welcomed us with his lovely smile and check on us in between to see if everything is fine. They took 15 minutes as explained but gave us a free mango Lassi for their delay. Lovely people and gut friendly comfy food.“
“We recently did an event here and it was so beautiful and well put together thanks to Sanjeev and his team. From the food, to the drinks and decor, our guests couldn’t stop raving about how delicious everything was. Thank you so much and looking forward to working with you again!“
“I don't know what people expect when they go to a casual snacks place like this. My 4 star is based on two things, one is very very good customer service and really nice and helpful folks. And the second thing is their snacks, I really like their Indian snacks items. Specially chicken puff and onion samosa, and their chai, I could literally have them every evening as snacks. I have also tried their chicken burger, pretty good and has a desi flavor to it. Overall, a good option for desi snacks and quick bites and really good chai.“
“This place is amazing indeed. My son had a Tapsilog (Tapa, Sinangag(garlic fried rice) and Itlog (egg), a well known Filipino breakfast, also Lumpia. I had Kare Kare (Peanut sauce stewed oxtail. OMG, it’s the most delicious Kare Kare I have ever tried. The oxtail just melted in my mouth, gourmet Kare Kare indeed. Presentation was awesome and customer service was excellent. It’s a hidden gem indeed. We will definitely be back for many more to try all their dishes. Though they have international cuisines , so happy that they embraced and also highlight their Filipino dishes. You will not disappoint with this restaurant. We finished our meal with Turon (Fried Banana) topped with Ice cream. Thank you for the heavenly meal. We loved it so much! We left with big smiles on our faces.“
“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Royal Palm Restaurant, and it was truly an exceptional experience from start to finish. From the moment we stepped through the door, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality by the kind owner. Their genuine passion for food and dedication to customer satisfaction was evident throughout.Now, let's talk about the food. Each dish from the buffet option we tried was bursting with flavor. From appetizers to desserts, every bite was a delight to the senses. There where many options in the buffet to enjoy and we loved it all.But what truly set this restaurant apart was the personal touch provided by the owner. Not only did they ensure that every guest felt welcomed and appreciated, but they also took the time to chat with us sharing stories behind the dishes and making us feel like part of the family.If you're looking for exceptional food in budget ,impeccable service, and the warm embrace of a kind owner who truly cares about their guests, then look no further. This restaurant is a gem, and I can't wait to return for another unforgettable dining experience.“
“This place is really good. I live in Newport News (NN) and if I have to order Indian (when I don't feel like cooking) this is the place. Some Indian friends visited NN and they said this was in the top 5 Indian food they had in East Coast US in the last 4-5 years.“
“Excellent cuisine! We've been frequent repeat takeout customers for the past few years and their takeout food has always been outstanding. We just dined in the restaurant for the first time, and our dinner and service were excellent in every respect.“
“There's not a dish here I've tried that I haven't enjoyed! But my fav is the butter chicken!! It melts in your mouth, along with the garlic naan, and their rice. Last week I tried the saag and it was amazing, full of flavor. Lastly I'm not sure of the name of this stewed zucchini but it paired with the rice is a comfort food, for sure. This place is one of One Loudoun's best restaurants!! And the staff is just delightful, so pleasant.“
“Wow! This dosa restro is a gem! The dosas here are out of this world—crispy, flavorful, and filled to perfection. Whether you're into traditional masala dosas or adventurous with their specialty fillings, they've got you covered. The staff is super friendly and the service is top-notch. Don't miss out on this spot if you're craving some authentic South Indian goodness!“
“This place his a hidden treasure for all Desi's and few Anglo's who love paan. Absolutely the freshest leaves and generous fillings. Made to order. I will bet you that you cannot just eat one and walk away. And I learned today that they have another kiosk in the Chantilly Lotte. Take a drive out and see Shezad in Ashburn or Ali in Chantilly. Awesome product and always fresh and clean.“
“We recently enjoyed dining at Kebab and Chicken, and we were thoroughly impressed! The goat paya and karahi chicken we ordered were absolutely delicious, with rich flavors and tender textures. But what really stood out was the exceptional service. The staff were incredibly friendly and humble, making us feel welcome and valued. Overall, I highly recommend Kebab and Chicken for a fantastic dining experience!"“
“The food was excellent! I was very impressed with the quality of the product I received. It was exactly what I was hoping for.Chicken Biryani is too good,I felt like home-made.Vegetarian options: Vegetarians has a lot of options too choose.The best is roti with dal makhani,kadai panner is finger licking ?“
“Good Indian restaurant to have desi food. We went for lunch and tried their onion samosas for appetizer which were served raw with no chutney. Then we asked for some chutney on the side and it was very tasty. I liked the filling. For main course we had paneer biryani. We like spicy so we asked them to make it very spicy. Still it turned out to be less spicy for us. So from that i can suggest everyone who love Indian food but hesitates to eat due to spices so they all can try food there. It is actually nice and subtle flavorful. For drinks we ordered lime soda and asked them to make it sweet and salty and it was really very nice. I loved their mango lassi it wasn’t too sweet and felt like so natural as it was not made from concentrate. The best part of this place was that every thing was so reasonable. Worth the money. The quantity and quality was great. The staff were kind and gentle. The ambience is really nice and fresh. They serve vegetarian and non vegetarian options. Also they serve alcoholics drinks and cocktails too. You should try it once“
“We loved our experience. Came for dinner with my husband and ordered several dishes. The chicken platter appetizer came out sizzling and delicious. We also enjoyed the Gobi Manchurian (sweet and spicy cauliflower appetizer). The Natu Kodi and Shrimp Curry entrees were both spicy oily and tomato-based with the perfect amount of seasoning… very rich in flavor. Enjoyed both of those dishes. My favorite entree was the paneer butter masala. Amazing sauce - similar to butter chicken sauce. I was eating the sauce with everything!! Also had an amazing Chicken Dum Biryani where the chicken was on the bottom of the rice. The garlic naan was phenomenal. Got to meet their Chef Krishna who was super nice and explained some of the dishes to us. We were pleased with our meal and will be back to try out their buffet next!“
“This is a fantastic restaurant. It’s sort of a hole in the wall, but the kind of hole in the wall that Anthony Bourdain would’ve visited if he were still alive. The food is great and authentic. People in the review section will say that the seating is too crowded and it’s dirty, but it’s precisely these things that make me feel like I’m in India again (I’m an American who lived in Delhi as a kid). This is the closest I feel to being in India outside of Jackson Heights. This restaurant also catered my wedding and everyone loved it.“
“Some of the best Indian food we've ever had (and we have it a lot). We went back for a second meal as soon as we could.The service is truly excellent and friendly, while not being too formal.The restaurant had a modern design and hip feel, which is usually not our style but worked very well in this case.Plenty of vegetarian options. We especially recommend the manchurian soup and the thali.Minor criticism: Be aware that some mocktails come covered in salt. The second time around I asked them to remove the salt and the drink still tasted like seawater.All in all fantastic food, service, and dining experience. Strongly recommend it and will go back again.“
“We recently tried Dosa Grill for the first time and our experience was very good. We tried dosa platter, raga onion masala, idli vada combo and mysore masala and the rates are genuine. I also tried schezwan chicken (spicy) and is really good.“
