One of my favorite spots in Catonsville serving up what I've been told is top-tier Pakistani food!…read moreI only grab carryout but dine in is possible. My go-to is the BBQ mixed grill, which is an excellent value for the money. You get a little bit of everything for only $27 (as of this writing). It's enough to feed a family or, for an individual, to have leftovers for several days. The food is just spicy enough to provide a bit of a kick but it's not excessive and dominating. Check out this hidden gem next time you're in the area. 8/10

Had been curious about trying this place since I pass it most days when I go to my child's daycare…read more Overall, not bad. The outside doesn't suggest much, but there is a decent amount of space inside. I ordered takeout, but there was a huge family that filled several tables. The folks at the counter seemed busy, but they got to me after a minute to get me my food. Food - despite the name, this is not what I would call a barbecue takeout place. It is a Pakistani restaurant that is meat-forward, but not exclusively meat dishes. We went for the Mixed BBQ, which had plenty of meat for at least two hungry people, but my wife and two of our children had plenty for dinner one night and lunch the next day. The kebab was nicely spiced ground meat and it was decent on its own but also nice with a spicy green sauce. The chicken tikka was solid. There were also some heavily spiced ground beef patties. Child #1 is vegetarian and got a Lahori Chana and a Palak Paneer. The Chana was pretty standard, nicely spiced chickpeas. The palak paneer was solid with a nice blend of warm spices, but I wouldn't call it spicy. We also tried out an order of Chicken Tikka Masala. It wasn't as bright or creamy as I've gotten at other Indian or Pakistani places. It was still tasty though. A variety of breads to mop it all up, and it was a solid meal.

I was driving back from Baltimore to the Fredericksburg, VA area on a weekday and was really…read moreinterested in enjoying some Pakistani food (not Indian, nor Persian, and definitely not Afghan) - I searched and saw there were lots of reviews (hundreds) on social media for this place, so I stopped in. It's not too far off the highway, so it was easy to get to. The inside was really dingey and rundown (but don't let this bother you, you're there for the food!) and there was a laminated menu on the counter to look at... The couple that runs it was there and the guy was friendly and helpful. I was in the mood for karahi, but I was by myself and typically restaurants make this for two people, so he suggested I get chicken curry. It took about 10 mins to make. First thing I did was taste the broth (the curry sauce) and it was spot on - AMAZING!!! Then I ripped into the naan and took to ripping chicken of the bone and enjoying... I scarfed that dish down in no time, and there was quite a bit there! The basmati that came with it was very tasty! And he brought me a ramakin of yogurt chutney (this is how chutney is supposed to be!) - it was fresh and soothed the spice of the dish. Regarding the spice level, he asked how I wanted it and I told him I was Pakistani to make it for me the same way he'd eat it and they got is right! Naan was excellent! Perfectly cooked, but the dough was great! Nice texture and flavor to it! Overall - I enjoyed my lunch and would come back! Definitely a place that sells all the typical kabobs, but don't sleep on their curries!!

When we walked in, we saw they had renovated the place. They now have blue/white lights on the walls. Decor is simple but classy, upbeat music was playing. We parked in the garage, it used to be free, now you have to pay. They also have parking in the back of the restaurant that is free. I had my go to lamb tikka masala and he had the lamb shahi korma. Both were delish. We ended going again after I started this review. He had the same, lamb shahi korma and I got lamb saagwala. Again! Delish. This is one of our top places.

Gorgeous. Cool blue lighting, great energy, and a spotless bathroom. And the food... wow.

It's rare to find a place that delivers both quality and quantity without cutting corners, but Rangoli does it effortlessly. Amazing service, incredible food, and an atmosphere that makes you want to stay awhile. This place is an easy win.

Not crowded for a Saturday and seated right away. They were pretty busy at least for delivery that it took a bit for our order but maybe because we were busy chatting and reminiscing. Couple of us had mango lassi sparkler - we enjoyed it and one ordered a non-alcoholic mango lassi and ended up not enjoying it - too yogurty for her. For the appetizer: chicken momo (dumpling) and samosa. Not bad! Main meal, I had the mixed platter which was very plentiful and flavorful, butter chicken mild and medium spice for two of the gals, and finally shrimp curry medium for the 4th gal. We highly recommended the very garlicky naan . The only negative I would say is that they were going to charge for extra sauce for my mixed platter. Ambiance was ok but a tad dark.
