The Nihari and Aloo Keema were standout authentic hits, while the Butter Chicken and Chicken Korma were rich, perfectly seasoned, and clearly made with care. It's a rare find: the comfort of high-quality home cooking served within a beautiful, upscale setting. To top it off, the tea was delicious, and the service was incredibly heart-warming. The manager and the entire staff go out of their way to make you feel like a guest in their own home. We will definitely be back!

I ordered four boneless chicken biryanis for pickup on a Saturday evening. When I arrived the staff…read moredidn't know which orders were ready -- I waited seated for 10 minutes while a front‑of‑house employee repeatedly asked for my order and seemed unsure whether it was prepared. After another 20 minutes my order was finally found sitting on the counter; it had likely been sitting for a while. At home the biryani was cold and bland. Short version: long, disorganized wait; confused staff; cold, poor‑quality food. Spent over $60 and left disappointed. The restaurant needs better order tracking, clearer communication with customers, and improvements to food temperature and flavor. I won't be returning.

We were not very impressed with this place. I don't understand why Indian restaurants try to make…read morethe food extra oily. We ordered the chicken seek kebabs, the Aloo Gobi, and the Punjabi chicken curry along with some naan's and roti's. The Gobi dish was cooked properly, but was very sour - way more sour than it should be and the chicken curry was not very good and bland. The chicken kebabs were decent but very oily. Also to add insult to injury, there was only one waitress across the 10 or 12 tables that they have in there and on a Friday evening all the tables were full and the poor waitress was struggling to get the orders in and also bring the bill to the ones that had finished eating. Maybe this is an OK place to go during weekdays but definitely not on a weekend or on a Friday evening.

She helped us to order dishes for our children who aren't able to eat spicy food. We ended up getting Palak paneer (non-spicy), butter chicken and the Amritsari kulcha. Everything was incredible and the mango lassi was the star of the show! The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because their restrooms were quite dirty and didn't look like they were being cleaned often.

Everyone was so kind, attentive, and prompt, and they truly went above and beyond to make sure our family, including our 3-year-old, had a great experience.

We're already looking forward to coming back and making Banjara one of our regular spots!

Love the catchy and unforgettable name Delhi 6…read more Why Unforgettable? Let me count the ways: 1) Amazing and authentic food. Old school. They do a weekend buffet and ensure that they have fresh, new, creative appetizers and dishes every time. 2) Something for everyone - northern dishes, southern dishes; a great selection for the first timers and spice or curry phobes. 3) Okra, spinach and red kidney beans ( 3 separate dishes today) prepared like I/all of us have never tasted before. 4) Amazing, pro active and very polite staff. The owner is so hands on and ensures all is well. 5) Ample room for big groups and parties. Last time I was here with a group of 10 was on Saturday 8/19/23 ( old Yelp photo) and everyone enjoyed themselves. 6) Great and relaxed atmosphere. The decor is just gorgeous with items and fixtures imported from 7700 miles east of Virginia. 7) 2 old school and just gorgeous desserts today - the rice pudding loaded with raisins and cashews plus the mini donut balls in syrup. 8) My mother came to visit me in 2022 and loved this restaurant ( old Yelp photo) and the service. In fact we were here twice during her birthday week celebrating in August wow 18 months ago. 9) Clean and spotless. The staff is on the ball. 10) A refreshing change from the 15 Indian restaurants in Herndon 10 miles away, all with food that tastes the same.

I like the strong citrus note of the green tea, it was very soothing. The pork momo were juicy and they make the skin in house as well as the chili sauce (if you like spicy, ask for it). The lamb achari jhol comes with rice, but I recommend you also add an order or two of naan.

We ordered the Spicy chicken Mandi, which was delicious, and the portion size was huge for the price. I had the Shastri Gari veg pulav, which was good.

The service was friendly and quick, but I wish they served food on proper plates rather than takeaway-style containers, at least for dine-in guests. Overall, it's a must try place specially for Mandi lovers.

My favorite dish was the the sukuti sadheko appetizer -- the goat was almost jerky like, chewy (in the best way) but still tender; and spicy. It was served with these rice crispies that looked plain, but had so much flavor on their own. It was a fun & delicious play on texture, flavor and spice. The braised yak was tender and warm with the spices and rice, yum. Loved all the options for goat, lamb, yak, etc. There were also plenty of options for vegetarians as well.

t's been a long time since I last visited Himalayan Wild Yak, and I realized I never left a review…read more We went for dinner this past Friday and headed straight to the bar. The bar area is big and spacious, and usually sitting at the bar means better, more attentive service. The place was mildly busy, so I expected things to run smoothly -- but that wasn't the case. Right from the start, the bartender wasn't very attentive. We had to ask multiple times just to place our order. For appetizers, we tried the Goat Buttan and the Wild Boar -- we wanted to explore some of the unique delicacies on the menu. Both dishes were interesting, and the Goat Buttan and Wild Boar were actually pretty solid. Unfortunately, the service continued to be an issue. We had to flag the bartender again just to order our entrées and even for simple water refills. We ordered the Mutton Taas and the Yak Chili. The Yak Chili was very good, but the Mutton Taas was extremely dry -- like eating cardboard -- and lacked flavor. Throughout the night, our bartender was constantly absent. More than once, we had to ask another bartender to get his attention so we could get basic service. After finishing our meal, we ordered a dessert, the Gulab Jamun. The presentation looked nothing like the picture -- more like a sloppy drop of pudding -- and the taste was just as disappointing. And again, we had to flag down another bartender because ours was nowhere to be found. Service overall was lackluster, and the tip options started at 20% with no 18% choice. For the level of service we received, 15% would have been more appropriate. I won't be returning anytime soon unless I'm specifically craving their unique delicacies -- which is once in a blue moon.
