“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.“

“What a hidden gem!! I was surprised that basically no one was in here on a friday night. Enjoyed their spicy Chicken Tikka Masala dinner special which came with a giant serving of rice, a lot of chicken chunks, and a fragrant gravy that was packed with flavor. The service is the usual order at counter affair and the people who helped me were super polite. I will definitely be returning to try out their other dishes and their other excellently priced specials.“

Highly recommend! Maja aa gaya!!!“

“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!“

“Must try Bawarchi special biryani !“

“I tried to get my dad to come to this restaurant for months, but he insisted he didn't like Indian food. One night he was trying to take me to another restaurant that was unexpectedly closed. I asked him at least to try Haandi as a personal favor to me. Not only did he love it, but it immediately became his favorite restaurant and he returned every Sunday for dinner for the rest of his life.

Four years after his death, I brought some relatives who were visiting so they could try my dad's favorite restaurant. As soon as we sat down, the waiter asked where my dad was. He remembered him after all that time. We had to let him know that he stopped coming to the restaurant because he had passed away.“

“This is a to-go Indian chaat spot located inside a gas station. Here’s how it works: you place your order at the cashier, and they bring the food out to you. There’s also a small corner with a few chairs if you want to eat quickly and head out.

We ordered the samosa wrap, which this place is known for - and it was delicious. The filling includes chana and rice by default, along with whatever other toppings you choose, making it quite hearty and satisfying.

We also tried the dahi puri chaat, which was very good. My husband and I shared both dishes and were completely full by the end. Definitely worth checking out if you’re in the area.

Oh - almost forgot! They also sell Indian beers here like Haywards 5000 and Kingfisher, if that’s your thing.“

“Aditi Goumet is a nondescript small restaurant in Vienna. People can easily miss it as it is in a small strip mall at the edge of Vienna. But, it is a hidden gem. Aditi Gourmet has the best-tasting chicken biryani, the best-tasting goat curry, and the best-tasting okra (“bhindi”) masala in Fairfax County. I recommend it highly.“

“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.“

“solid chicken kathi roll (street food section), chicken seekh kabab, and papri chaat. very friendly staff, and excellent value for money. will definitely be back“

“Very homely environment and great food.“

“Visited Akmal’s kitchen with friends and family recently located in Springfield, the Desi Hub. It has by far the best tasting Pakistani food in Northern Virginia! Menu has great options for all kinds of food from appetisers, vegetarian options to specialty food! We ordered the chicken pakoras, chaat for appetisers and for main course, mix sizzling platter, goat korma, Nihari (fall off the bone beef), chicken biryani, butter chicken. The biryani was very fresh, very fragrant and the chicken fall-off-the-bone moist and tender--some of the best we've had. The butter chicken was excellent-the sauce wonderful to enjoy with the moist and flaky naan. They also have buffet every day, which I will try next time!
The owners and staff are very friendly and accommodating! Everything has been consistently fresh, delicious, and filling. Generous portions as well. Will definitely be back here again n again!
Always enjoy their catered food at the weddings and parties. Permanent customer!

Vegetarian options: Plenty of vegetarian options as well!

Dietary restrictions: They also cater to customers with dietary restrictions!

Parking: Ample free parking!

Kid-friendliness: Kid-friendly environment“

“The food is very good here although it's a long wait if you come after lunch time. This mostly seems like a take-out shop, although lthere are tables and chairs in case one wishes to eat in.I especially enjoyed the order of 4 very filling Chicken Samosas with the deliciously spicy Cilantro sauce and the sweet and sour Tamarind Chutney. The Mutton Curry is to die for, with fall-off the bone chunks of lamb and nicely fragrant Curry sauce.“

“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“

“I was there for dinner the other day and ordered 4 different offerings. The food came in quick and it was flooded with deliciousness. I was having a great experience until the chef NOUR and her collegue Ashley walked up. After delivering such delicious food, these two came to deliver an amazing experience. Their genuine concern about what was good, what can be better, if the food met our expectations, etc was the cherry on the cake. A place that genuinely cares for its clients is unheard of!! A big shout out to Ashley and NOUR for making the experience worth cherishing!! Thank you guys!!“

“Good food good ambience good service good bar“
