Delicious!! I love the Momo especially. Butter Chicken and Malai Kofta are both really fantastic here. Service is great!! A bit slow at times, but absolutely worth the wait. I also just love the atmosphere here, it's a fantastic place to eat. Recommend!!

Best Indian food I’ve had in a long time!!The chicken tikka masala was delicious. Service was great too.Loved it!

We adore the dishes so much! They have a wide selection, and you can adjust the intensity of spiciness. The garlic naan was my fave. It has a great flavor and a great texture. It was worth it.

I have eaten here several times in the past. Therefore, this evening I took a family member who was visiting from out of town and specifically requested Indian food. To say that the staff here were rude and inconsiderate would be an understatement. Although we were little more than half way through our meal, the waiter came over and asked us if we wanted anything else because they were getting ready to close the kitchen. Fine. However, almost immediately, they came over again and asked us if we wanted a box. Um, no, thank you. THEN, a man who appeared to be the owner or manager came over and put the check down. After hurrying me to give him my card, he brought the check back and literally stood next to me waiting for me to sign it while we (again) were in the middle of our meal. I really wish I had not given them a tip at this point. But, I was still feeling generous. The last straw, however, was when the same man came over approximately ten minutes before they were scheduled to close and told us we needed to finish eating because he wanted to leave at 9:30pm (their stated closing time) in a stern and rude manner. TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE! On top of all of this, I would say the food was mediocre. (Nothing to write home about.) I definitely will never return. TIP: If you don't have time to give your customers proper service, don't seat them at all. There are plenty of other restaurants in Arlington. In fact, my prediction is that, eventually, these employees will not have to worry about closing down on time at all because this restaurant will no longer exist.

This place used to be very good. Ate her twice in the past 6 months and the food wasn’t good. Lacked flavor, spice and freshness. Additionally, the service was poor. Seeing a trend in the DMV are where prices are increasing but the quality is decreasing.

Reliable and delicious. Every time. The owner is lovely. We enjoy the usual fare, but also the mom's. The space is nicer than your average Indian eatery with a great terrace.

The food is always delicious! I have never ordered something I did not enjoy. The staff are attentive and kind. I never used to be a big fan of Indian food (because it is dairy based and dairy gives me trouble sometimes) but none of the food here has ever upset my stomach. It has always been a pleasure to eat here. Try it! If you like Indian I am sure you will love it. My favorite is Chicken Korma!

The best authentic momo (dumplings) nepali style in Northern VA. Thanks for being consistent each time. Can't wait to stop again.03/05/22: Just in awe of the chilly chicken momos again, but had to order a takeout because we had a dog with us and they wouldn't allow dining out. The regular steam momos were a little cooler so maybe the first time I didn't get the consistency but will come back again.

We ordered naan, veggie samosa, chicken momo, butter chicken, and chicken tikka masala. Everything was fresh and delicious, and portions were generous (we needed take-home boxes). The wait for appetizers on a Saturday night was a little longer than usual, but we could see that they had tons of online orders so it wasn't a big deal. The servers were friendly and our drinks were always refilled quickly.

We have ordered from here numerous times since our earlier convenient and favorite Indian restaurant closed. We think the food is delicious!!
