“Superb authentic Indian food. The real taste of south Indian cuisines, well cooked and every item on the Buffet was tasty. The staff greet you with a smile and really take care of your choice of food and also give their suggestions to try other dishes too.

“We recently picked up dinner from this Indian restaurant, and it was a great choice! We ordered a chicken curry dish, goat dum biryani, and chili gobi, and each dish was delicious!

The chicken curry was rich, flavorful, and perfectly spiced—just the right amount of heat. The goat dum biryani was aromatic and tender, with the perfect balance of spices and herbs. But the standout for me was definitely the chili gobi. The crispy cauliflower had an incredible depth of flavor, with a perfect balance of sweetness and spice.

Overall, everything was delicious, and I will definitely be back for more! Highly recommend the chili gobi if you're into a bit of heat.“

“I’m finding it difficult to accurately describe the flavor surprises and texture treats that were presented in every dish! We started with the kale and yogurt appetizer, and it was unlike anything I’ve ever tasted. Crisp, tart, sweet, salty - astoundingly good! Then our main dishes just carried it forward. I had the crispy pork belly with shrimp paste, and my friend had the oxtail and eggplant. They were like nothing I’ve ever had before, and such unique and enjoyable flavor/texture combinations. I can’t wait to go back! It’ll be really hard not to just reorder what we had today, but this place deserves a full menu exploration!“

“Whenever we want to eat Indian food, Sai Saravana Bhavan is always our first choice. Food was so delicious. Highly recommended!“

“Consistent good quality food“

“Decent biryani. Have ordered a few times.

Be careful when you order spicy levels of biryani it’s really spicy even for an Indian palette used to Andhra level spices. Also that level of ‘hot’ kills the other flavors in the biryani.“

“Jodhpur restaurant serves an excellent authentic food popular in Rajasthan, UP and New Delhi. The owners are very friendly and accommodating to your special needs. We catered their Rajasthani Dal, Baati, Churma special dishes for our guests in October 2022. it was a super hit. Everybody loved the food. We have also tried other varieties. The food, service, ambience, cleanliness and quality - all are excellent.“

“Tried the banana leaf feast on Labor Day. Reminded me of having food at home. It was one of the best buffets I have had in Herndon and Ashburn area. The service was also exceptional.

Vegetarian options: The special buffet had loads of vegetarian options

Kid-friendliness: The dishes were not very spicy so was enjoyable by kids“

“I never get wrong to choose Balaji cafe for my chats and Pani puri cravings. They have the best sev puri, bhel puri, idli samber, dosa and Pani puri in the area, I tried these things from many places but Balaji cafe always fulfilled it with tasty food. I buy from them more then 10 times, the food quality and the taste are always the same. Definitely worth to spend here.“

“Our first visit to this great place was just yesterday August 14th and it was by chance only. We are happy that we decided to eat there. Food was great so was service by John who was just very pleasant and ready to serve you. He recommended a lemonade drink that is their house special and we loved it. We ordered mutton briyani to go and this was the best briyani we have tasted so far. We’ll be going again for sure. Amita&Aman“
