“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. They had mild, medium and high spicy foods displayed in the buffet. The atmosphere was very nice, clean and looked very hygienic. I would highly recommend this restaurant, a must try, if you like Indian food. I will certainly go there again. Thanks a million, Keep it up.“

“There are very few Indian breakfast places open in the area. Great service and fantastic breakfast. Absolutely recommend this place!“

“Ate here yesterday for the first time. Delicious! My wife and I are excited to find an Indian restaurant nearby we both love.

We got lunch portions of the chicken chettinad and chicken kolhapuri. Hard to say which was better as they were both delicious. If you love spicy dishes these will hit your taste without being overpowering (we love spice and found the spice level around a medium). Amazing portions for the lunch dishes: you get a lot for a cool twelve bucks.

We also tried dahi puri for the first time and can highly recommend; the right blend of tartness and sweetness to offset the main dishes.

Only picked up but both workers--an older man and woman (owners, maybe?)--were very sweet and polite. The inside is clean and has the feel of a high-end hole-in-the-wall (if that makes sense).“

“We had to pick someone up from Dulles Airport in virginia and had about an hour to spare. We Googled nearby options and found this place just five minutes away from the airport. We ordered mutton masala with rice, plain naan, and a chikoo shake. We also packed a butter paneer masala, which was great. The food was excellent overall. The chikoo shake could have been a little less sweet, but otherwise it’s a great spot for Indian food. Those who need to know, this place is big, clean and has a good bar too.“

“This time we went with family members. We tried different varieties. We all enjoyed revert items ordered. Food was delicious , fresh, and tasty. The service was even better. Our server Rakesh was very pleasant, helpful. Made us feel like we are at home. Iwe will go back with more family members. I recommend this place to everyone who enjoy vegetarian meals.“

“Chaatwala is hands down one of the best spots in Herndon for authentic Indian food! The chaats are amazing – super fresh, flavorful, and just the right amount of spice. The dosas are perfectly crispy, and the curries are rich and delicious. The staff is really friendly, service is quick, and the portions are generous. You can tell they put a lot of care into the food and it shows in every bite. If you’re looking for great Indian street food and comfort dishes in Northern Virginia, this place is a must-visit. Highly recommend! Maja aa gaya!!!“

“Great food. Great service & atmosphere. Lumpia was excellent. Great to have this restaurant in our community.“

“Went there today with my daughter. Ordered Butter Chicken. Well it did not look like Butter Chicken, nor did it taste like Butter Chicken. Tasted and smelled like pieces of chicken dropped in the Chhole curry. 🤔“

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

“We had a dine in dinner and were very disappointed. Service was very slow. Rice was served 15 minutes early we were hungry so ended up finishing the rice. Entrees came lot later. Food came cold“
