    Paneer Tikka Pizza
    Jignesh G.

    Place continues to be one of our favorite goto place. We typically get lot of appetizers, they have great selections and we truly enjoy them. We order Paneer Taco, Biryani, Paneer 65, and Manchurian. All turned out great. Excellent service, great ambience. Love it, a must try Indian place in Ashburn/Sterling.

    Neat decor on inside walls
    Matt A.

    This place is great and close to my office so will be frequenting a lot for lunch. Very spacious with lots of seating, good lunch buffets, and delicious food. Good location near the NOVA campus where lots of other restaurants and stores are with plenty of parking (right next door to Panera). They offer mild, medium, and hot spice levels so you can cater to what you are feeling. On top of the typical Indian dishes they do an Indian Mexican fusion with Indian nachos and tacos amongst other options such as pizza, etc. great tea, rice, fresh meats, and good service! Will definitely be coming back to try other options and recommend for others!

    Food not great. Too spicy. And definitely not good value. There are other better places in the area.

    I'm having a multi-event wedding this summer and we've been looking for a good caterer and heard…read morereally good things about Bombay tandoor. Went with my fiancé and family to try out the food and everything we got (chicken tikka, mixed grill, butter chicken, chicken Amritsari, chicken biryani, carrot and moong dal halwa) were all delicious. Ambiance was nice with Indian songs playing. Service was a little slow, we had to call people down constantly to get water refilled or order more food. From this experience alone, I would've given this a 4 or 4.5 stars. However, about a week later, we had a small family gathering and order to-go trays of chicken tikka for others to try. Unfortunately, this time the flavor wasn't as strong or good and the tikka was more watery than we expected. We also got paneer tikka, which tasted good but for $16, it was only 5 pieces. Called the restaurant to give feedback regarding the watery tikka, and whomever my dad spoke to was rude and condescending. They asked if we were South Indians as South Indians generally do not like the taste of North Indian food. First of all, not true. We had the exact same dish a week prior and it objectively did not taste the same. We also asked why they charged us $16 for the paneer tikka as the menu said $14 and he said that the Leesburg location is priced higher, which again, not clear anywhere on the website or when ordering. If anything, I would assume Tysons location would be more expensive. Anyway, we went from excited that we found our wedding caterer to feeling hurt about the way that one man spoke to my dad. But the first time we had the food in the restaurant was really delicious without any professionalism issues.

We worked with Reeta from start to finish--from placing the order in person to final payment on delivery day. The food and service were the best we've experienced in many years. During delivery, there was a minor item issue due to a misunderstanding on our part. However, right before our event started, Reeta personally drove to our house with the additional item at no cost! She went completely above and beyond to ensure we were happy. Their packing and delivery processes were also top-notch. We highly recommend Reeta and Maharani for both catering and dining in. They offer the absolute best Indian restaurant experience, service, and food in the Herndon area!

You can tell that the owners truly care about the quality of branding and presentation. I've been here before and had a positive experience both times. The food is great, the masala fries and falooda are must try's. The fries are crispy and seasoned well and the falooda is sweet, rose-y/pistachio-y, and balanced well with textures. This time we also tried the chaat papri bowl (small). The chick peas were seasoned well with the sauces and paired well with the crispy chaat. I just wasn't a fan of the tomatoes. Overall, everything was reasonably priced for the quality and portions. I'd recommend coming here if you're looking for a Indian street snack or dessert.

The variety was nice and the food was alright in taste, nothing great. The food came out hot from the kitchen, but there is no way to keep it hot and soon would get cold. There is 1 person (the owner) making dosas on ONE pan and they come out very, very slowly!!! We were there 20 minutes and still waiting for ours and then the server goes and gives 2 dosas to people who just walked in!!! Not done!! There was hardly any masala filling in the dosas, too little. We had to keep asking for water, spoons to refill on the table etc. Only 2 people were serving us. Also the owner's daughter was wondering around there and getting into the spoons etc... she should not be allowed to do that. My son saw a can of Raid bug spray on the kitchen counter!!!!! No way!!! If there was an inspection they would have closed the restaurant. Bug spray CANNOT be in the kitchen!!! If you want a cheap, OK breakfast, then go there, but you will wait and have all the problems we had. The people are nice but they do not know how to run a restaurant.
