Had a wonderful time at Pappe for dinner the night before, service was on point and matched the outstanding quality of food we had, will definitely return and will spread the word! This is a hidden gem in DC if you have a niche for Indian cuisine. read more

I went to Pappe in DC for happy hour with a friend and had such a great time. I originally wanted to go because I saw they had a $24 butter chicken meal deal that comes with a glass of wine or beer, and it definitely did not disappoint from 5-7. The butter chicken was AMAZING -- super flavorful, rich, and honestly a really generous portion. It was easily enough to have leftovers for lunch the next day, which made the deal even better. During happy hour they also have $3, $8, and $10 bites, and $10 margaritas, which is such a great value. I tried one of the $3 bites and it was so flavorful and well done. Honestly sooooo good! It was the vegetable Samosa and it's soooo good! The whole experience was great and the food had so much flavor. This was my first time coming here, but it definitely won't be my last. It honestly feels like a bit of a hidden gem for happy hour in DC. read more

A true gem on 14th street! My dining experience here was nothing short of magical. There is something special about a restaurant whose decor tells a story of culture and beauty. This place brings South Asian culture to DC and the evidence of that is the beautiful black and white portrait collections with DC sprinkled throughout it. See if you can spot it in the image I posted! I loved it Next, their hospitality was excellent!!!!!! From the time that you walked through the doors, you're immediately greeted. Then, as soon as you sit at the table, the wait staff is attentive to your needs and uses such care to keep your water glass refilled and your table cleared between meals. Thank you! Drinks: we were there for the happy hour so we both wanted to try something special. I ordered the Chai espresso martini and my boyfriend ordered the Pili margarita. The Chai espresso martini was GOLDEN! If this drink were to go up for cocktail of the year, it would come out on top. Might I say that chai is something that you can mess up and I've had encounters where it was watered down, not the case here. I tasted the fresh and real chai and the richly brewed espresso. This drink wasn't just a martini, it warranted deep conversation with each sip. My boyfriend raved about his Pili margarita and talked about how excellent it was to taste fresh mangoes, a burst of citrus, and spiciness. A beautiful culinary combination Safe to say that both drinks were our favs!!! I also had a glass of their white wine and it was dry and refreshing. Well done! Food: we ordered several dishes from the happy hour menu. Please note that they aren't shy of providing excellent portions. Manchurian wings: a star dish! The fry on the wings were perfect but the seasoning puts this dish over the top. Highly recommended! Vegetable samosa: flaky dough with the most delectable sautéed vegetables. You'd definitely want to try a few of these! Gobi manchurian: a beautiful dish for non-meat eaters and meat eaters. Similarly to the wings, these cauliflowers were perfectly fried and seasoned to perfection. Actually, at one point, I thought that I was eating a meat dish because it was so tender and juicy inside. Please don't miss ordering these! Spicy chicken tikka: the dish that makes you ask "what spices are in this? They're EXCELLENT!" Such a juicy and tender cut with the perfect blend of flavors. Order, order, order! I think it's safe to say that we enjoyed ALL of our selections and appreciated the modern twist on Indian food classics. They didn't stray too far from the beauty of these dishes but added just enough personality to win you over. Lastly, we ordered dessert! We originally went with their bread pudding which came with cardamom ice cream but the amazing host, Dave, surprised us with their special Gulab jamun. The cardamom ice cream was AHHH-MAY-ZIN (spelled how I need you to say it!) it was amazing! But let's get into this bread pudding. I have so many questions: who is the pastry chef? How did they master such perfect bread pudding? Also, why is this dessert SO GOOD?! Best bread pudding and ice cream EVER! And I don't say that often about much bread puddings. The Gulab jamun was also my favorite because it wasn't sweet as the others and I felt so satisfied taking bites of this with the beautiful ice cream they placed on top. It's a no brainer that I'm coming back soon and that I'm going to try their dinner menu next. Please make the reservations and go support this spot, you won't regret it! read more

Review is for lamp chops and naan. Both were exceptional and done well. Saag had cream in it and i dont know why. The drinks were expensive but the ginger beer pomegranate one was excellent. Service was good in many ways. Bread pudding was fire. Atmosphere is very date night vibes and I found it comforting. During restaurant week they should add ala cart options. $55 is very steep. read more

Tried Pappe's out for brunch with a bff. We both ordered the build your own Thali platter, which I wonderful waiter recommended. The food came out quickly and hot. It was a lot of food, so I recommend going hungry or sharing with a friend. We enjoyed our food and how quiet it was for a Sunday morning. We stayed and chatted for about 2 hours. read more

The portions here are large and the happy hour deals are great! We ordered each item off the happy hour menu to try and had more than enough food to share between two people and take home leftovers. Each dish was delish with vibrant flavors. We also tried their ginger lime soda and sparkling rose wine, which were both great. The restaurant environment was very calm and the staff were extremely attentive. I look forward to returning here again soon to try more of the menu items! read more

I got an e-mail from Pappe inviting me to their soft opening brunch which entails all food items on the house, drinks and tip to be paid for. Reservations were made through e-mail via a Google Spreadsheet which was super confusing, but I was still able to get the reservation for the time I wanted! So I gathered the troops and decided to head over. My friend and I got the bottomless Moet & Champagne deal, while my other friend just got 2 spicy Pili margaritas. My other friend did not partake in the bottomless drinks option. Which is definitely a plus when going to bottomless brunch in case not all participants want that option. As I've mentioned in my previous review, the drinks are mediocre while the food items are amazing as always! I got the vegetarian thali and my previous sentiments still stand - the daal is quite literally my favorite. It had the perfect smokeyness to daal ratio. I'm not even a fan of daal! The sabzi was basically a salad, but the dressing that was used was so good! Although I thought the dish would've been sauteed veggies or something, not raw veggies. Again, I wish they provided larger amounts of raita because I could drink it up! I'll definitely be making my way here for bottomless brunch again! read more

I visited this spot for happy hour and was pleasantly surprised by their deals - drinks under $10, bites under $8, and even a meal for around $20. I ordered their take on a margarita, but it was a bit too spicy for me. The bartender was kind enough to make me a different drink, and I ended up trying their Moscow Mule, which was flavorful and delicious. My friend went with a version of an espresso martini, and that was also very good. For food, we tried the lamb rib. While the presentation was impeccable, I felt it lacked flavor. Overall, MIl definitely be coming back for happy hour and am excited to try dinner here to see how it compares to other Indian restaurants in the area. read more

Went here with a group for a birthday celebration, and we overall had a good time! Staff seemed a little unprepared despite our res time, but were friendly in every interaction. I really loved this cocktail that had mezcal, ginger something, (goan something) that I was surprised to see on the menu. I got the lamb biryani, which came with a cute bread hat (that they strangely cut open table side) with a side of raita. It was a lot of food, definitely the best deal on the menu for how much lamb and rice you got. I wished I got more raita (and that they kept the goan pilau on the menu but that's okay) but it was all really good. Overall I'd say the service was a bit awkward for the price point but I would be happy to come back in the future to try some other dishes. read more

Pappe offers one of the best happy hours in town - curry, rice, and naan with a balanced cocktail just for $20. The samosas are a must-try, too. Quick seating and service in a cozy restaurant, can't complain. If you are in the area and looking for a delicious bite, this is the spot. read more

First time here and w a group. What a gem! Great service - though things got a little chaotic when the restaurant picked up. I wasn't able to grab pictures because there were so much food around our table, but we tried it out almost all of the Indian sodas and I got my mango lassi. We got a variety of protein dishes, like the lamb ribs starter, lentil, naan basket with chutney, chicken, shrimp entrée, duck entrée. All delicious and we had an Indian in our group that vouched for genuine Indian cuisine. The street that it's on is kind of okay but a few blocks over on 11th is definitely sketch at night. read more

Grabbed brunch at Pappe today and was enjoyed the bottomless champagne and the brunch options! Our table got the brunch Thalis (one veg and one non veg) and a few of the appetizers (mushroom omelette, salad Subji, vegetable samosas) to share. The Thalia's were a pretty goods side with the standout being the daal makhani. Overall- we could have done with a little more spice but appreciated the diverse options. $35 for bottomless Moët and Chandon is a great deal and I will definitely be back for brunch again! read more

This is truly one of the best dining spots in Logan Circle. Not only is the food fantastic, but the service is also great as well. We ventured here on a Tuesday evening and had an amazing time in the cool and welcoming environment just off of the hot summer street. What was especially exciting about this evening was we discovered their happy hour was until 7 pm and was not just served at the bar but also all dining tables. We started with the vegetable samosas that were very good. They came with a side sauce for dipping that paired so well. We also ordered the butter chicken, which came with a side of rice, naan, and a beer. We additionally ordered a few cocktails, and the entire bill was $55 (before tip)! Outside of just an amazing happy hour, we've been here for other meals and it never disappoints. I'm so happy to have this spot on my neighborhood. We will be back soon! read more

We went to Pappe for happy hour, and I'm excited to come back to try more of their menu! We sat on the patio, and the service was very attentive. We tried several of the happy hour offerings, and they were delicious--also served fresh and very hot. The margaritas were great, strong on the mango. We plan to return to Pappe for dinner, and maybe even to sit inside (the decor looked beautiful). read more

Great vibes when you walk in. Things continue in a positive direction from there. Service was attentive but not overbearing. Food was spectacular! Nice selection of wines by the glass. Music and lighting at an appropriate level. Nice place to have dinner with friends or a date. read more

For the basic people who get Chicken Tikka Masala and a side of Samosas, this place is good. There are signs that point this to be a really good restaurant, so I don't want to reduce them to a popular dish. Our take-out was prepped with great attention and care, even down to a garnish of cilantro for some freshness. The chicken was charr grilled with a crust that still came through and added a layer of depth from simmering in their creamy sauce. The spices were visible which is a great indication of a custom individual spice blend. Onions were thinly sliced and gave the dish a great sweetness that rounded out the sauce. Rice was perfectly cooked with a slight fragrance from the cumin. Samosas are a bit on the flatter side but still well-filled. The chutneys are incredibly flavorful, which offers a fresh and tangy bite if you want to alternate between tamarind or their green sauce. Portions were generous, a single order for me was enough for 3 meals. read more

STOP! This is where you want to eat!! I went to with my best friend and cousin to Pappe and oh my goodness, it was so good! We came in to try their new Thali style brunch, in this weather it was the perfect comfort food. We started with the Mumbai French toast, which was delicious. It had date, butter, timbre, chutney, toasted cardamom caramel which had its own Indian fusion mixed in. It was delicious. They also offer a Moet And Chandon bottom of course for $35 pet person. And also a few mocktails we tried, the 'Abase' was delicious with pomegranate and lychee. For appetizers, we had the Aloo tikki chaat and we all agreed this was a five star dish and elevated street food that completely wowed us. This is a must order. Probably one of the best things weve had since the beginning of the year. The vegetables samosas were packed with flavor and beautifully presented. Then for our main course we decided on the build your own own thali which are little dishes a traditional South Asian round platter, usually metal (steel, copper, brass), used to serve a complete, balanced meal with many small dishes like curries. We chose butter chicken, and lamb Taar gosht along with garlic naan along with smoked daal and Chana masala. Along with the wild and wonderful mushroom biryani, which came with caramelized onions and basmati rice. Both blew us away. And last we got the crmeme brûlée mixed with house blend chai. What a wonderful brunch I will definitely be back! The parking is streetside and metered. The interior is BEAUTIFUL!! Fabiola and Kate took such good care of us and were so helpful with providing their favorite recommendations! read more

I've been wanting to come here for a long time and finally did! It was pretty good!

Anyway I would definitely come back and try more things! read more

This is a GREAT example of how you don't need to be perfect to be a great restaurant! This was my first time coming here, just flew into Baltimore from Dallas and wanted to try some local foods. It was about a 15-20 min walk from my hotel (Grand Hyatt) and right when we sat down we were greeted. We got cold still water, and ordered two cocktails and a mussels appetizer. The sauce in the mussels were absolutely delicious and the naan was soft and buttery. When we ordered the entrees, it came out in a reasonable amount of time. I ordered the tellicherry hanger steak and my friend had the lamb taar gosht. The lamb was absolutely delicious however I did notice a small, live caterpillar on my steak's side salad. I quietly notified an employee and had it remade and the owner/manager took it off the bill and offered another dish on the house. When it came out again, the salad was on the side, which I didn't quite care for, and I ate all the meat. However there was another small caterpillar on the salad but I did not eat any of it and quietly notified the manager who then decided to comp the whole meal and throw in another free drink for me and my friend. I told him that was completely unnecessary as I understand the razor thin margins restaurants have. But he insisted anyways. THIS IS HOW YOU MANAGE AN ESTABLISHMENT. Above and beyond with customer service, delicious food and would 100% come here again! Mistakes happen, it's how you handle the mistakes that show what you truly are. read more

Met up with a friend here for their happy hour. We didn't have reservations, but it was pretty empty when we arrived, so we were sat right away. I was greeted immediately upon entry, which was nice. I love the decor in the restaurant; it's so chic and modern - with the dim lighting, this would also be a cute spot for a date night. Their happy hour menu has a good selection and is actually decently priced. The only thing that was disappointing was they were out of the lamb samosas for the evening, but aside from that, everything else went smoothly. My favorite dish from the evening BY FAR was the mussels - that curry broth was so flavorful, I wanted to drink it straight from the bowl. I also liked the old fashioned that I ordered. Overall, I enjoyed my experience here. This is a solid option for a happy hour if you're in the area. read more

This place has such good and well-made Indian curries! My friend and I shared the saag paneer and naan basket. My friend got the chicken tikka masala and garlic naan. Everything was great. They do have a limited menu now but as always, everything is still great. If you come between 5-7pm, they have happy hour. Ask if they have it and they will bring you the menu. The service was excellent and he even took some photos of us. The ambiance is also wonderful. I can hear my friends and also enjoy the ambiance. Overall, fantastic Indian food and can't wait to come back here again! read more

An amazing dining experience truly summarizes my experience at Pappe! It was my friends and my first time but definitely won't be the last. An intimate space with beautiful decor, the staff was welcoming from the minute we walked in. We snagged seats at the bar and decided to try a few different options from the happy hour menu. For drinks we had the sangree-uh and the mango margaritas (my fav). Food also did not disappoint. I definitely recommend trying the lamb ribs which are so flavorful and cooked to perfection. I also enjoyed the Mussels Malabar which had a tasty coconut curry flavor with a kick if you like spice. I enjoyed everything I ate and drank. The music and service - Quinn was very kind, answered our questions and made great recommendations - were an added bonus. I look forward to returning! read more

We decided as a family to visit Pappe, a restaurant my cousin heard good things about. It has co-owners including Chef Sanjay Mandhaiya who had 2 previous restaurants in the area. Located in a trendy area of DC we arrived early and were able to select our own seats. We ordered cheesy kulcha for the kids, bangain bartha (great), vegetable samosas, aloo papdi chaat and garlic daal fry for appetizers/main course. We added Punjabi aloo ghobi, butter naan and mushroom biryani. They were kind for a dessert for our special occasion. Drinks Limca, Thumbs Up and G&T. Décor very nice inside, great bar area and very friendly service by the team including Flor and GM Mac Rena. We met Owner Sanjay. Would definitely return and strongly recommend. Be careful to state level of spicy for the food. read more

Arguably one of the BEST Happy Hour offerings in DC (& interesting sub-continental menu with both old favourites & innovative 'fusion' spins). The Manchurian wings and chicken Tikka were perfection (that's high praise from a Mumbaikar!) and the Pili Margarita was a perfect Mexican-S Asian 'marriage'! Attentive staff, great service and v engaging Manager .... A memorable evening! read more

Food and service was very good will definitely return. We started with lamb seekh kebab. Was very tender and juicy with onions and rita sauce paired well with the lamb. Interior was very nice feels nice and fresh look for the restaurant. For drinks I got the goan smoke it was mezcal cocktail with fermented pineapple, ginger, and thai chili. Was very good nice level of spicy and heat of the thai chili. We also got for appetizers the naans and chutney flights. This was such a great and tasty dish comes with three different types of naan. Butter, herb, and paneer and olive. All were soft and warm. Tasted fresh my favorite was paneer. It was well balanced savory and salty with a bit of richness from butter. For main courses we got lamb taar gosht. This was my favorite dish. The lamb was extremely tender and was pretty much melt in your mouth. Right level of spice and heat for the sauce. Everything was paired well in this dish. Then we got the wild shrimp coconut curry. Was delicious the shrimp were perfectly cooked tender and not too firm. The the curry was nice in spice level that was balanced against the coolness of the coconut milk. read more

I would say 3.5 stars if I could. INCREDIBLY slow service - to the point where the wait staff was just standing talking among themselves instead of helping customers. Cute inside, and packed for restaurant week. The food was good but not incredible. Not as good as rasika and definitely not traditional Indian food. Tried a lot of stuff for restaurant week so that was good! The naan was not hot and def had been sitting out a bit. For apps - both the paneer achari and the chaat were decent but not something I'd order again. Both daals were good, but the daal makhani was a little watery compared to how it is supposed to be prepared. I was very underwhelmed by the entrees and slightly disappointed in both the chicken tikka masala and the saag paneer. The saag had little to no flavor and the chicken was better but the sauce again was on the more watery side. I've def had way better versions of this dish elsewhere. Finally, the desserts both kheer and the cake were very good - dare I say better than some of the other dishes. I really loved the saffron kheer. Would I be back? Probably not, the super slow service def sealed the deal. I know they're a busy restaurant but to see the staff hanging out for long periods of time and not helping customers was sad. read more

Party of 2. First and foremost, the service was top tier. Our server Sammy was amazing! The food was delicious. We enjoyed the lamb samosas so much, we ordered another round. The only thing we didn't like was the green chili naan - it was pretty bland. Everything else I would order again! The drinks were 50/50. The espresso martini was not the best but the old fashioned was lovely. The place itself is small, super intimate. Definitely a cute date night spot. read more

We went there for lunch over the weekend. Had been wanting to try for a long time. It was easy to get reservations and we were seated promptly. The service was great. The servers kept checking on us. The restaurant has decent amount of seating. The lunch menu for vegetarians is very paneer focussed. I don't eat paneer, and didn't find a lot of things without paneer. - Papdi Chaat - is delicious. Loved the flavor and crispy papdi in the dish. Loved it. - Vegetarian Thali - was ok. Nothing great. I had to replace the paneer dish with another daal. Definitely felt overpriced for this thali. - My husband ordered the Nihari Special, and it was decent. Nothing like the Nihari you get at Lakshmi Chawk or Tooso in Virginia. Overall, the place was decent. I didn't feel the food was at par with the price of the dishes. We have had great Indian food in DC, and this is definitely average. Still, I highly recommend trying it out once for sure. read more

Second time at Pappe and finally getting around to writing a review. For starters, Pappe is beautiful with gorgeous drapes and dim lighting, its perfect for a date night. This time around, my friend and I ordered the Naan Flight, Butter Chicken and Lamb Rogan Josh. I raved about the naan flight but this time, I was underwhelmed. It came with plain, an herby variety and an olive paneer naan. Really was expecting it to come with at least garlic naan but I guess not. The herb naan was not great. The rosemary overpowered the naan and the currys we ordered so much, we ended up just picking most of them off. The raitia and chutneys were the highlight more than than the naan itself so that was a little disappointing. For our entrees, the Butter Chicken stole the show while the Lamb Rogan Josh fell a little flat. They were both delicious but the lamb sauce could have been more flavorful while the lamb itself was perfectly tender and moist. Still thinking about if I'll be back or not, maybe it's time to explore other Indian options in the city, especially if they are at a lower price point. Also, please please please bring back the Mushroom Truffle Naan. read more

They have a really great happy hour during the week which also includes food. Their happy hour drink menu has more than what is listed online and they have so many great cocktails for 8$. I tried the cardamom gimlet and the whiskey based drinks and they were both extremely delicious and well made.The service was very fast and we ordered 2$ samosas and an order of wings for snacking which was a great deal. Decor was really cozy and intimate and I look forward to going there for dinner at some point to try more from their menu. read more

We stopped in here for a quick dinner before seeing a performance at Studio Theater. It looked wide open for reservations when I looked online at my office during the afternoon, but when we arrived shortly after 6 only bar seating was available without a 30 minute wait, so we sat at the bar. We both ordered from the short happy hour menu -- I was very pleased but my increasingly spice-phobic wife was not. She ordered samosas and a crab cakes, and found BOTH too spicy. I had had the spicy chicken tikka, which was good, and,off the happy hour menu, the flight of naans and chutneys. Some the chutneys were spicy, some not, but the naans were not so that it what my wife ate. When the bartender learned how unhappy my wife was, she brought an extra dish, the chicken malai, which I thought was a very sweet thing to do, so I added an extra tip on top of the 20% gratuity automatically charged -- except then I noticed that we had just been cgharged for an extra dish. So, nice gesture gone something awry. When the bill arrived with a note that said, we love spicy, I got no end of grief from my wife for the restaurant selection! The beer list was unusually weak, I thought (and not much difference between the happy hour beer list and the overall beer list) read more

We had a reservation in advance and were seated immediately once we arrived. We started with the naan and chutney flight, which was really good! We also got the vegetable samosas which were good, but one of them came over fried and the exterior was too hard. For mains we tried the butter chicken and chicken pista korma. Great flavor in both! On the sweeter side. The inside of the restaurant is very nice and is great for a nice sit down meal. The service was on the slower side though, and this was on a Thursday night read more

Pappe is a delicious, authentic Indian restaurant in Logan Circle that is packed with flavor in each bite. The restaurant is clean, trendy, and has a great mix of Bollywood/Punjabi hits always playing in the background :) I adored the dim lighting and lively atmosphere. I went for Happy Hour and loved each dish I had. My absolute favorites were the Spicy Chicken Tikka (a spicy food lover's dream!) and Vegetable Samosa. The Onion Bhajia and Prawn Koliwala were tasty and milder, which made them a good balance between each item. The Cardamom Gimlet and Sanjay's Old Fashioned had a unique Indian twist on classic cocktails. Both paired exceptionally well with the spices in each of the dishes. The service was speedy, accommodating, and friendly. Appreciated meeting the owner and learning more about the establishment. Pappe is a phenomenal Indian restaurant and I am excited for my next visit! If you are in the neighborhood, it is definitely worth the visit. read more

Super lucky to have been able to visit here during both happy hour and restaurant week. Happy hour- French 75! Omg! I loved this cocktail. Refreshing and well balanced. For only $6- you can't beat it. Dinner- Restaurant Week menu (tons of choices). Here's what I ordered: App: Crab Pav- a little Indian crab cake sandwich! Soft and flaky. Entree: Shrimp Malabar- shrimp in a coconut and curry sauce. Lots of shrimp way more than expected. I ate this like a soup (without rice) and it was very filling. Not too spicy (hot), but still tons of flavor and a mild/medium heat. Sides: Palak Paneer and Yellow Dal- both good, but I was already stuffed off the previous two items. I ate these with rice. Did not order naan (glad I didn't because that would've been way too much food). Dessert: Saffron Kheer (rice pudding). Not too much saffron flavor, but not bad. Overall, I highly recommend this place! read more
