This place had buffet for dinner, but I needed something lighter, so had chicken tikka and papdi chaat. The quantity was a lot more than what I had expected and the staff were very friendly.

No joke, this place is a DMV Top 5 South Asian restaurant.

It's been open for ages and the quality & service hasn't changed one bit. This is just a classic.

I ordered chicken biryani for takeout, but the food did not meet my expectations. Although it was ready on time, the bag did not include napkins or plastic utensils, forcing me to return for a fork.

Like many places, they expected a tip for the takeaway order. This would have been acceptable if the service had been better.
I hope they will improve the food and services.
