A friend and I went here on a Sunday night for dinner. I love Indian cuisine as you may know from my other reviews. I also like spicy food. So I was excited to try a new place. My friend is a bit less adventurous than I lacks the spicy food gene. That said, she picked it because she had heard good things about the food. We started with samosa chat and cauliflower 65. I meant to take pics, but got carried away with the eating. Both were delicious. We were sharing so we went medium spice. Next time I go, I will kick the heat up a couple notches and see how hot it goes. We got garlic naan, chicken tikka masala, butter chicken and raita. I know ... the most vanilla of orders. Garlic naan and but...
The veggie biryani, on the other hand, was incredibly spicy—almost excessively so, even for me as an Indian. It’s concerning how spicy it was; I don't think it's healthy to consume something that intense. Uber Eats only offers two spice levels: default and mild. They claim the default level is perfect, but that's definitely not the case—it’s overwhelmingly spicy. They should really offer a normal spice level as an option.
To add to my disappointment, the biryani didn’t come with onions or lemon, which is quite surprising given the prices here. Additionally, there was an excessive amount of spices in the biryani (see my photos). The most irritating part was the broken cinnamon sticks—they s...
We did takeout from here but I noticed during pickup the place was packed with both diners and to go orders near their entrance. Great sign! We ordered butter chicken and chicken tikka masala as our entrees, samosas and chicken 65 as our appetizers, and garlic naan and butter naan on the side. The person taking our order asked what our spice preference was for the meals so I asked what level they typically made it. He responded medium so we went with that. I think it could have definitely been spicer so we're going to kick it up a notch next time. Otherwise, the flavors were outstanding! This is probably my second favorite place for butter chicken and everything else was delicious and flavo...
I often order from Bansari, and I must say their Sarsoon Ka Saag is outstanding. As someone from the western part of India, I'd heard about Saag but had never tried it until now. It’s one of the best flavors I've experienced in the USA. Furthermore, their Indo-Chinese dishes are absolutely delicious, and you can choose your spice levels. I highly recommend trying the Chinese Bhel, Veg Manchurian, Hakka Noodles, and Veg Fried Rice. Being a vegetarian, I prefer to order from here because they have excellent delivery service and have never messed up my order.

The front host was welcoming and seated us right away, and our server was attentive and respectful of our space. We chose to sit outside because it was a lovely evening. While there was some light street noise from the nearby main road, it wasn’t bothersome at all. The decor was modern with a touch of retro, creating a nice atmosphere. A quick tip: there’s a parking garage just around the corner, so you can easily find parking by turning down the side street. Overall, a delightful dining experience!
Really good and authentic Indian food. Their Veg Veg Manchurian Dry is really good. We also had the Paneer Tikka Masala and Malai Kofta, Missile Naan and Truffle Naan . Everything was really good. Only order the Hot level if you can handle it!
Paneer Tikka Masala amazing! Delhi Dhaba Daal delicious! Veg Biryani super on point! Vegetarian items across the board are top rate. Havent found better in Northern VA. Many dishes give Rasika a run for their money.
great Indian food. everything I have so far is great, really like the samoso chaat. has internal and external seats. So we'll take our dog and sit outside. they do not make reservations.

The Makki Di Roti was of poor quality. It crumbled easily and didn't taste fresh. If you’ve had good Makki Ki Roti before, you can definitely tell that this one was lacking.
Dal Makhani is definitely the highlight of the meal. However, the paneer dishes tend to be chewy and dry, which is disappointing. The Kadi Pakoda was also overly salty.
