    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.

    Garlic Naan Garlic

    I ordered via Grubhub. The butter chicken was supposed to be regular but it came spicy. It was delicious so I'm honestly not even mad. If I didn't like the spicy food that would be unfortunate though. The garlic naan was very good and soft. Great garlic to naan ratio. The rice was rice. The paneer 65 wasn't bad but not my favorite. Overall 7/10

    Neat decor on inside walls

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

    My favorite is chole bhature, allo tikki chat and samosa. Their curries are out of the world.

    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.

    There are lots of restaurants in this plaza. Many have changed hands and many have been around for…read moreyears. This place had been on our radar. We had an opportunity to eat at the buffet lunch. Staff was amazing, from the servers to the manager. They explained the various dishes, brought over various sauces and made sure we had everything we needed. We also sampled the Dosa dish brough over by the very friendly manager. The buffet selection offered us the chance to look at the dishes and try them out. I love how they put out fresh items when the item runs out. Butter chicken is our favorite and they use chicken breast(one of our go-to choices). I loved the table specifically dedicated to the various sauces. I'm not very familiar with names but the spinach and cheese dish was super delicious. We also ordered a fresh batch of vegetarian samosas. There are plenty of vegetarian options as well as non-veg items such as goat curry, butter chicken and the Manchurian chicken. There's something for most. Their location in Vienna has been around for over 20 years. I hope this location finds a good following of diners.

    OMG *this place*!!! I generally think most Indian food is delicious, so how this place has been…read moreable to top them all and be my #1 best Indian restaurant--in a heavily South Asian location at that--continues to blow my mind. First of all, the service is impeccable; from the moment, I walked in, the host and manager were both so kind and hospitable in a way that felt natural, while also going above and beyond. And the decor: easily the most beautiful restaurant I have ever been in. Full stop. Just a fun experience, without even getting into food and drink. There isn't a bad seat in the restaurant, and I would even want to come sit at the fun bar. Ok, food and drink. I got a sangria, which was easily as good as any you would find in a Spanish restaurant--not too sweet. They have a fun "street food" appetizers section that isn't on most Indian menus--we got the dilli ki shaan, which were kind of like potato salad in a crispy shell? And for my main, I had the coconut machi curry with fish--omigod, it was so flavorful!! My mouth is watering just thinking about it. My friend got the mewa murg tikka, and I think that delicious, flavorful, savory, smokey chicken may have even been better than my dish. The habanero and cheese naans were also pretty good. I can't wait to go back, though my biggest challenge will be whether to order the same dish or try something new!
