    We had a late night flight into DC. Decided to have some Indian food before heading home. Mehran blew us away the Achar chicken curry was amazing. As well as all the other foods! We ordered several different things so we had left overs for lunch the next day. The service was fast and very on point checking in with us and helpful. Bring the kids some curd when food was a little too spicy. Really felt like a home restaurant. The ambience in the restaurant was cozy I would say this is where it was lacking wish they would spruce it up a bit. But all in all very nice experience here! Also the Indian / Desi Chai is really good !

    This would be more of a 3.75 star rating, but I'm rounding up to 4. I stopped in to grab some tasty Pakistani food to bring home (to the Fredericksburg area) for dinner, so I needed items that would travel well, could get cold and then be reheated. Upon walking in, I noticed they had a buffet.. BONUS! The guy behind the counter told me the buffet to go is $9.99/pound. I ended up scooping up $22 worth and it didn't seem like a lot of food. I asked if it included a naan, he said they're $2, but he gave me one. I brought it all home, heated it up and it was very tasty! Their chicken saag is outstanding! Channa is pretty tasty. Chicken Tikka is smokey and flavorful and lastly, their kofta has the hard boiled egg and is awesome! All items had the right amount of spice and heat (which would be considered 'hot' by American standards), which I really enjoyed! The naan was tasty and easily reheated to be perfect again. Service by the guy who rung me up was nice too. Overall, my only issue was the cost, they need to reduce the per pound price by a buck or more. I'll definitely be back!

    Limited options in buffet, but tastes okay. Two stars for Their Tandoori chicken (so good), second one for their kheer (desert), third one for their night buffet option and final one for the taste and cleanliness.

    Biriyani is really okay. The overall taste was okay. I am a big fan of spicy food and I should say the food is not spicy.

Exterior and Interior: Very fun interior and has some authentic vibes that people will like. Food Breakdown: * Falooda (4.5/5): Man oh man they make the best Falooda here. The only thing is that the presentation was not great cause it was overflowing and they didn't bother to clean it finally I wish they gave us more cause the cup is pretty small ngl. But taste-wise is solid and always down to get some if I am in the area. * Mirchi Fries (4/5): I loved the cut of the fries as I don't like thick fries and the Mirchi was solid compared to other places. And way better than the fast-food fries but if you love Mcdonald's Fries this is the way it should be. * Mango Lassi: (1/5) PLEASEEEEE do not get this, it is not good at all. There are better options to get and this one is not it. Portion Size: Good for the most part not. bad but I wish Falooda was a little more in the cup sadly. Price: Good! Very happy with the price I paid for my food. Service/Food Delivery: The cashier was honestly not good, no passion minimal effort to serve but hey he could be having an off day. Would I go Back: Yup, but ONLY FOR FAlOODA AND FRIES cause it was that good! Ankush's Final Thoughts: So I would come back but for me, I would only come for the dessert cause the food itself is ok. But I know my friend who went here liked the food for what it is. But one thing we can agree upon is NO LASSI PLEASE. Oh, and they have no WIFI for guests which is wack.

    After a long day driving through 5 states, my daughter and I stopped here for dinner. We ordered a…read moremix of a couple of things we were familiar with (Channa Masala Bowl with rice, Pakoras), one thing that looked similar to things we'd had before (Zeera Aloo Roll), and one thing that was totally new to us (Dahi Baray). After ordering, we chose a table and sat down to wait for our food. We noticed that the table was sticky, but after checking several other tables we realized that they were all sticky - they didn't seem *dirty*, just sticky. The Zeera Aloo Roll and Channa Masala bowl came up first. The roll was ok - mostly just roti and very drippy sauce with a few potatoes. I enjoyed the flavor, just wished there was more filling. The Chana Masala was fine -- a bit bland and the bowl was 90% rice, but it was edible. When the Pakoras came out, it was mostly just onions and a couple of potato sticks. Not much flavor there either - I couldn't even really taste the onions, it all just tasted like oil. It did come with a small cup of raita, and that was good. We had no idea what to expect from the Dahi Baray since we'd never heard of it before -- it turned out to be a few little mushy balls of dough about the size of cherries, in a huge bowl of tangy yogurt sauce that was a little bit sweeter than the raita. I liked the sauce - I mixed some with the rice from the chana masala - but neither of us liked the dumplings at all. When we were done, I stopped in the restroom before we hit the road again. I found a fairly large, very dimly lit bathroom with a very wet floor, and while I was washing my hands the dim light went out all together leaving me in total darkness. When I emerged I grabbed some napkins to dry my hands, and my daughter decided that she would wait and use the restroom at thenearby gas station before we hit the road again. Overall not the worst dining experience I've had, but we won't be back.
