We ordered the fish in naan leaf and scallop chettinad for appetizer. Both were delicious. For main course, we ordered railway lamb curry, halibut mapas, chicken tikka, daal makhani with naan, rotis. all dishes tasted awesome - freshly made and very authentic. The ambience is also very good. A very good Indian restaurant! Highly recommend it.

Service was good, but they brought one of the wrong dishes( chicken not veggie)and when brought up they apologized and made the right one for us. They didn’t comp the dish they got wrong, which would have been nice, but certainly unnecessary. Attire is a little on the fancier side for Indian, mostly collared shirts and jackets for men. Recommend you order extra rice. Samosa was quite good.

Piano player playing softly. Then the experience starts to fade. The food is average Indian. I’ve had better in strip malls. The lamb was very tough. The naan was good. The samosa generally dry with little flavor. Then there is the service. Long waits for water or to order. No explanation of the menu. We were at our table for about an hour, my two companions had finished but I was still eating. They came in and cleared all the plates, bowls, rice and naan while I was trying to finish a bite. I stopped eating because everything but my plate had been removed. Nothing to write home about here, and at this price point, there are much better experiences to be had.

We haven't been in a number of years, but as good as we remember and with great food and service. A DC classic in a great location. Yes, it's expensive, but worth it. Valet is covered with your meal. Look out for this one during Restaurant Week. Then the price is more palatable.
