This place is amazing, the food is delicious service is on point and staff is very friendly and attentive.Highly recommend

Just go! OMG! The food was AMAZING! And they had this Indian beer that was amazing. How there wasn't a line out the door baffled me and my nephew. The food was just so frickin' great! Go. I'm just saying...you will find something amazing on the menu and then want to bring your friends back. Oh, and the waitstaff...I felt like I was flying in First Class. read more

Indish Exotic Indian Restaurant & Bar - Just get the Rupee beer and shove food in your mouth. You will thank me later! - Indian Near Me - Brandywine, Maryland

I have nothing negative to say about our lunch experience at Indian. I was pleasantly surprised by the food and didn't expect such goodness in the heart of Brandywine. We went in on a weekday, hoping that the lunch buffet was running at that time. It was not, but the à la carte items we ordered were really amazing. We had garlic naan, lamb vindaloo, and chicken tikka masala. I know chicken tikka can be considered very basic, but I have to be honest. This is one of the more flavorful ones I've had in years, and definitely one of the best I've had in this area. The lamb vindaloo was good, but the chicken tikka masala was definitely better and more flavorful. In total, I think we spent $50-$60. Definitely a little bit on the higher side, but totally worth it. At the end of our meal, they gave us coupons for our next visit. The service was great, too. Our server was extremely attentive, but not bothersome. I definitely want to get back here on a weekend to try the buffet. I would highly recommend. Parking was pretty easy outside, and the inside was very calm. Definitely not a dressy place, but you could pull up in like work attire and not look like you stand out. You could also pull up in sweatpants and not look underdressed. read more

We went on a Monday around 515. It was completely empty. The waitress was so pleasant and patient. I believe Happy hour is 3-6. Some drinks are $5. I ordered a mojito. Idk what the person made but it tasted like sweet and sour. I couldn't drink it but I still paid for it. The veg samosa was delicious. The garlic naan was good and fresh. The chicken tikka masala was ok. Something upset my stomach. I'll stick to my usual Indian spot but I'm glad I gave this place a try. read more

Great food and great service I ordered online and they gave me a 5% discount which was unexpected and very nice. It took about 30 minutes for my food to be given to me but everything is made to order here. My food was still pipping hot by the time that I made it home which was a 15 minute drive. I had the lamb biriyani and it was tender and well seasoned. The rice was also made very well with the right amount of spices. This dish is a bit spicy as a forewarning. I would highly recommend this restaurant. They also do catering which is nice. The garlic naan was okay I wouldn't get it in the future. read more

We came. We saw. We conquered. You should ABSOLUTELY do the same! Today was a spur of the moment lunch date (Tues., 8/5/25) with 2 of my children. We agreed on Indian cuisine which led us here, based on other Yelp reviews. Pretty organized, quaint, establishment. A little curious about how they host a comfortable all-you-can-eat-lunch buffet every weekend in this space. Made a note to come back soon to check it out for myself! Beyond that, I was automatically impressed with the real stoneware dinner wear (no plastic, disposable, or melamine used here)! We had decent service, decent drinks, but even BETTER garlic naan, tandoori wings, goat saag, roti, vegan samosas, and MORE. I know it was just lunch but we were there for almost 4 hours so the opportunity was ripe to be gluttons (and we WERE)! Our biggest quandary was wondering WHYYY the restaurant was sooo EMPTY?!?! There were numerous reminders posted about this being their 7th year in business so clearly that's a good sign of success, prosperity and community acceptance, right!?!?! I will definitely return and highly recommend you visit as well. When you do, tell them you saw it on Yelp! read more

Our waitress was Nattu and she was very attentive to our needs. The wife ordered Lamb Saag which was tasty and the lamb was cooked perfectly. I ordered the Goat Tikka Masala. The sauce had good flavor and the goat was nicely seasoned. The goat was a little chewy. The manager came to our table and checked on our experience. He advised us about their weekend brunch and all the different dishes they will be serving. Nattu also talked up the weekend brunch. It worked because my wife advised that we needed to check out the brunch. The dishes were big enough that we both had doggy bags. We enjoyed our date night and will be returning. read more

Not my bowl of curry. I love exotic food spots, but something was just off for me. The service was immaculate. The staff is very welcoming and friendly. There were several tables of people eating. They seemed to enjoy their food. My husband and I ordered a goat dish and a lamb dish. I did not like how my food was all mixed in together I assumed I was ordering goat with a side of rice and veggie. It all came mixed together. My husband's lamb had a bad smell and taste so he did not eat it. Instead he ate my food. I wish the server would have done a better job of explaining the menu options to us as we did ask him a few questions to make sure we were ordering something we'd enjoy. The pita was burnt and not appealing. I guess overall this visit was a no for me. I did mention my experience to an associate and she said she loves Indian and I may have ordered something that's not their specialty. She added their butter chicken and tandoori chicken are her two favorite items. read more

The staff was extremely friendly and welcoming! I did an UberEats order and the owner let me sample some food from the buffet while I waited. I came back 30 minutes later for lunch! My family always eats here but I haven't had it in a while since moving back from NC. The food is AMAZING! I normally get the Chicken Vindaloo but I tried the Chicken Biriyani and I have been missing out! The portions are very generous as well!! Jackie was so friendly and gave great service! I will definitely be back!! read more

My husband brought this home from the restaurant so I didn't get to see you inside or work with the restaurant directly. I did call to put in the order. When the order arrived, it was perfect. The food was extremely tasty and we've been talking about going back Soon. It was a little pricey, but we ate on that food for three days almost. Highly recommend. read more

About a 2-2.5: We had come here several times for their Sunday-only lunch buffet, even knowing that the price point was a little higher than the typical NoVA establishments. Unfortunately, the quality and the temperature of the food has been super disappointing, in which we have decided to take this place out of rotation. The food selection has been pretty consistent, in which I usually focus on the samosas, the pakora, the chili chicken, the butter chicken, hakka noodles, and the masala chai. However, these items have either been room temperature or on the colder end, even though we usually show up right when they open. I feel like either the food is prepared way in advance or just slightly 'heated through'... Staff are friendly and efficient, but it does take some time to get our waters refilled or get another basket of naan. The naan, however, is made-to-order, so you're going to be receiving a hot batch, each and every time. Limited parking in the front, but plenty of parking in the lots further back. +inconsistent in quality and temperature of food +friendly staff +plenty of street/lots for parking read more

The food was really good. I should have checked my order before leaving to confirm I received an accurate order. I called back to apologize about my order. I indeed did receive the lamb chops. A relative grabbed them from the bag before i went through everything once I got settled. I immediately called the restaurant when i didn't see them instead of checking with my family first. I am very sorry and tried to apologize over the phone but was sent to voicemail. I appreciate the graciousness of your staff while I waited for my order. Thank you. read more

This is just my spot. What can I say, they never disappoint. The food is always hot. This was the first time trying out the brunch and of course in roundish style it was delicious. I have not found any other Indian cuisine that can beat it. Why are you still reading this, honor and make your taste buds happy!!!!! read more

Nice atmosphere, good food, gracious servings and excellent service. The buffet is good value.

Years ago the food was amazing, and very tasty. We often enjoyed the lunch buffet too but, something has changed since Covid. I'm not sure if it's under new management but the food has definitely become more and more bland! I thought it was just what I ordered before with the curry chicken the last time so I ordered something different this time and blah! I really hope they read these reviews and bring the flavor back to these dishes. I really don't want to have to travel far for a decent Indian meal. read more

It was no one there when I went. And the waiter was very nice and attentive filling our water cups. The food was tasty but I must admit the chicken tiki masala really tasted more like tomato paste. read more

Chicken biryani and chicken curry with naan bread was excellent. The service was great, our server was quite funny and personable. The atmosphere is nice with music not too loud that you can't have a conversation. The bathrooms were clean Parking was easy. Highly recommend. read more

I have been many many times and bring my family in often. The food is good and usually service is warm and kind. However, when I talked with the gentleman who answered the phone this time he screamed at me when I asked him about an item ingredients. He told me never to call again. It was bizarre and angry and really ruined the restaurant for me. Shame, because we come at least once a week usually. We won't be back because that's horrible customer service that was also truly bizarre. read more

I am updating the revising the review below and the 2 star rating that I left yesterday 9/7/2025. They owner, Kumar, reached out to me via phone on 9/7/2025 expressing genuine sentiment regarding my unfortunate experience. I so appreciated this. I explained how mistakes do and can happen and that it was important to have been heard and not being told by wait staff that it never happened before further implying that my not going to the hospital meant that it was of no consequence. Kumar informed the cook - this is who was responsible for the spoiled meat making it to my plate. I know of 2 men that have olfactory challenges thus, a cook that doesn't smell meat before cooking it, can result in a customer with food poisoning for lack of a better word. I will dine here again but it will be a minute. I took a friend there to eat on 9/6/2025. I got quite ill! I called to inform the establishment and was asked if I went to the emergency room to which I responded no, I took Pepto Bismol. I felt as though they were unwilling to own the possibility that I received a tainted piece of meat in my dish. It was the only food that I consumed that day. I have eaten here on several occasions without incident. Having experienced the unpleasantness of eating spoiled chicken before, I had no doubt that this was the root cause of my illness. THANK GOD FOR PEPTO BISMO read more

The chicken was overcooked, hard and disgusting. I couldn't eat it. I will return the dish to you tomorrow. My dish cost 21 dollars. I can cook chicken better than that. I wanted a nice delicious meal. How hard is it to cook fresh chicken? What did you do? Serve yesterday's chicken? read more

I would give this 3.5 if I could. We were the only diners in the restaurant at 6:30 on a Friday night. The staff were friendly and attentive. The restaurant was small but comfortable. The free app of crisps and sauces was a nice start. We had Samosas and Chicken Stuffed Naan for apps. The Samosa was the best thing I ate all night. I didn't care for the chicken stuffed naan. We ordered Okra Masala, Curried Salmon, and a seafood rice dish that was on the back of the menu and started with Indish. All of the dishes looked pretty but the okra had very little seasoning, and the salmon was cooked well but the dish was bland. The seafood rice dish was pretty good. All in all, we had a nice meal out and if we are in Brandywine we might give it another try. read more

"Wow, what a culinary journey! The flavors at this restaurant are truly authentic and transportive. The butter chicken was creamy and rich, and the naan bread was perfectly fluffy. The service was also top-notch. blown away by the variety of options on the menu. The saag paneer was out of this world, and the samosas were crispy perfection. The decor was also beautiful and added to the overall experience. Can't wait visit again I can confidently say that this restaurant truly captures the essence of Indian cuisine. The vindaloo was spicy and complex, and the basmati rice was fluffy and fragrant. The portions were also generous, and the prices were very reasonable. Five stars!" "I was blown away by the creativity of the cocktail menu! The 'Mumbai Mule' was a game-changer - the combination of ginger beer, lime, and cilantro was so refreshing and unique. And the presentation was stunning - the copper mug was a nice touch and the 'Tamarind Ginger margaritas did not disappoint. The tamarind flavor added a nice sweet and sour tanginess that complemented the Don Julio perfectly. And the mint garnish was a lovely touch. Impressive!" read more

Indish Exotic Indian Restaurant & Bar - Butter Chicken Makhani - Indian Near Me - Brandywine, Maryland

Meh food and nothing I would revisit, but for most people unaccustomed to authentic Indian food (home cooked or restaurant fare) it's probably exotic. Try the chickpeas, the garlic naan, and the chutney. Service is good and responsive. The decor feels a bit cliche, but the restaurant is pretty clean, roomy and an experience. Try it for yourself and judge for yourself. read more

I went today for the brunch and I got there 45 minutes before it was over. I love the chili chicken so of course I got that. And some were a little tough but I think that's because the buffet was about to end and I had gotten what was left. But nevertheless the Food is delish! every time I go. The service is impeccable!

Locals are happy to have more ethnic flair in our backyards. There are more than enough chicken wing, burger, & pizza joints. I was plotting on Indish for quite sometime & on a clear winter night we finally strolled in. I've returned several times since that fateful night. Systematically moving through the menu. So far, I've tried both the Tandoori chicken (topped w/red onion) and butter chicken entrees, samosas, vegetable fried rice, chickpeas, lentils, eggplant, & spinach. Their fresh baked garlic naan is quite possibly the most garlicky bread I've ever eaten. It's great but get plain naan if you're on a first date. The food is cooked to order so plan accordingly. We normally call in the order & pick up 25 minutes later. Indish also partners with local food Delivery services like Grub Hub, Door Dash, Food Scooter.net, etc. I didn't have the opportunity to dine in before the pandemic but I heard it was a festive time. Currently no dine in allowed but continue to Support this business!!! We really want it around when it's safe to resume normal activities. read more

My boyfriend and I had brunch here this past Sunday. I heard about them from posts on Facebook and Instagram. They are located in a strip mall, with parallel parking in front, and plenty of parking behind the restaurant. I made reservations on their site about two hours before we arrived, for 11:30 AM, which is when they opened. We were the first patrons of the establishment, which we loved, since it is a buffet. We were greeted with a warm welcome and seated immediately. Nobody asked about a reservation, the place was empty so I understand that. We were immediately asked to enjoy the buffet while they went to get iced water and garlic naan for the table. You get a choice of plain or garlic naan when you arrive. Endless amounts, but you have to ask your waiter to bring more; it's not a buffet item. Upon tasting the food, I was immediately transported back to my time in Chennai, India. The food tasted authentic and we enjoyed every bit of it. The dessert table featured several custards and Gulab Jamun, which I enjoy. I liken it to a donut hole, but soaked in super sweet syrup. If you have never had it, one or two is enough because it is over-the-top sweet. This is not your typical brunch where you should expect bottomless mimosas, or juices, such as orange or pineapple. The only offerings were hot chai tea (which was very good), a smoothie, and iced tea. We decided to stick with water. They had great customer service, understandably so, since the restaurant is very small. It's not fancy, but we enjoyed it. They do have a bar where you can order drinks as well. The bar area is very tiny, but I didn't see one lady sitting there ordering drinks and enjoying the buffet as well. They got really busy closer to 12:15 PM. The Sunday brunch buffet is only $22. Considering they have goat as a meat option, I would say that's a steal. I really don't understand how they can afford to have it at this price, but we were happy to oblige. If you like Indian food, check this place out. You will not be disappointed. I plan to go back with my family. read more

I'd been hearing about Indish for quite a long time. I finally got to go -- meeting a friend for happy hour there. I went around 4:00 on a weekday -- a Thursday, I believe it was. It was very quiet in there! And there was some beepy thing at the door that was distracting. For everything I heard about the place, I was expecting it to be a little busier. But anyway, they start you off with a light appetizer that comes with sauces that's yummy -- I should've confirmed what it was, but it was airy and awesome! I did expect the service to be a little faster, sitting at the bar as I was. But I think everyone was relatively lax, given how quiet it was, so I don't want to critique too much based on that. I do know that I loved my samosas and their assortment of drinks -- good ones at that! I will return to try more things since I have friends who don't live far away. TBD! read more

The restaurant is wonderful! The ambiance was calm and pleasant. The service was polite, quick and overall made for a pleasant visit. Finally, the food. One word: delicious!

The food definitely tastes good however, they are very stingy on the amount of meat they put in any dish. This will come back to bite them. Ha ha ha. Overall, I would say mediocre because the last thing you want to feel is that you charged for an entrée and have a dish full of curry with no meat. I will not be ordering again, there is a new Indian restaurant in town, which is going to give them really good competition. read more
