"Quick disclosure - I am from Delhi and I ordered Chili Chicken Momo. One word - amazing. I had no expectations based on my experience ordering momos here in the DMV area but this was one of the best momos I ever had. Took me back - maybe a little spicy for our domestic friends but Indian folks missing home - this is it!!
Will be ordering a lot more!"
"Great place and highly recommend! Everything was packaged well and didn't deal with any messes. Everything was delicious and there were ton of great dishes to try.
Some reviews mentioned that the Butter Chicken was a tad sweet (which I agree) but we didn't mind when we ordered mild spicy. It was probably done to balance the customized spice levels for each customer. I think next time we'll it more spicy to see if we like it more. The Butter Chicken does come with a side of basmati.
Chilli Chicken was great and the spice levels were great! We also ordered Assorted Bread and loved the naan variety. It was packaged nice and warm for delivery.
First time trying Samosa Chat and Spinach Chaat and we loved it! Samosa chat is my new favorite dish, and there were so many great flavors/textures in one bite. Forget plain samosas! Spinach chat were like chips and loved the texture.
First time trying Steamed Chicken Momo which was good but probably not a dish for us. The tomato sauce was REALLY spicy and packed a punch lol but we had fun trying out new things."

"The Chana masala is absolutely to die for. So filling and bursting with flavor, mixed with their rice it is the perfect meal. The veggie samosas are flaky and crunchy and still somehow melt in your mouth, 10/10. If youre a fan of spice you can't go wrong doing the samosas with their green sauce they include. "
"We ordered Aloo parantha , paneer parantha and mango lassi. Aloo parantha and mango lassi were horrible. Raita was very liquid, sour and over spiced. Paneer parantha was average. Would never order again from this place. "

"Vegetable Biryani was awesome. I doubted after ordering it but it was really good. Definitely will buy again.Butter Chicken/ Paneer Makhani ( i ordered the paneer makhani and it was delicious!) Overall, great order and happy meal. Will recommend it to fellow Vegetarians. Also the food was freshly made unlike other restaurants."
"I used to love Saffronnso much, but this time was such a disappointment! Vegetables and paneer were cut in 2 inch by 2 inch chunks- HUGE! And although I asked for "medium spice" it was really bland. It's like the restaurant just doesn't care about its food anymore. Unfortunate- I'll be finding a new Indian restaurant."

This was a group order with non- south- Asians and they did a great job adjusting the spice levels!"
"The best Indian food in the DMV area. True South Indian flavors - complex, layered, delicious - just like what you would get in India. Our family is obsessed with their biryanis, dosas, chicken kurma & basically everything we tried. Portion sizes are so generous. We order from here every few wks!!"

"there is so much meat in the lamb Biriyani. I ordered the medium but it still has a kick to it. it came with a lot of raita which had a good cucumber taste. it's very seasoned and flavorful. the Chicken 65 is also very flavorful and it has plenty of sauce so it's not dry. I also like that the chicken is crispy."
"The curries were bland yet overly sweet. The main flavor was cream with just a hint of spices. Very mild flavor. Not my favorite. The portion sizes were decent for the price, and the naan was pretty good as well, but overall I was disappointed."

"Chicken Tikka + Avocado Salad Good stuff. plenty of flavor. A bit of "spiciness" (heat), enough to make it interesting without going overboard. I don't actually recall, but there are probably options from completely mild to "call 911!" I got spinach and "sexygreens" (kale & arugula) as the base, and added the "potato & cauliflower" option.
I also opted for the Garlic Naan, which uses RAW, FRESH garlic, and plenty of it. Pretty powerful. My wife found it overwhelming; but once I realized what it actually was (At first I thought it was some exotic Indian spice or herb, but then I recognized it was just very strong raw garlic), I liked it. But it's not for the faint of heart. They also offer plain naan.
Especially with the naan, this is a full meal, and then some, depending on how hungry you are. I ended up saving part of mine for the next day.
AND, with the DashPass BOGO, it was an excellent deal. I liked it, will probably get it again."
"Portions were horrible. I'm glad that I ordered when they had a special going because if I paid full price for a bowl that was 80% rice I would be pissed. Beyond that, the flavor of the food was very lackluster."

They always make their food with a lot of love and care and it reflects well with the taste of their food. The food is always delicious every time! "
"They forgot to add salt to Gobi masala (says someone who avoids sodium as much as possible). The biryani was worse. It was way too spicy (when spice level wasnt an option one would except medium at best) and salty (the irony). Now the worst part - the only 3-4 pieces of meat they put in it was just bones. Never again. "

I've had it before I never knew what it was called. The Samosas were Amazing! The Vegetable Biryani was SO good - and spicy!! I'll have to start driving to the restaurant to order in person, because Doordash is extremely expensive, but this food was absolutely worth the money! We should all support this restaurant. Great food like this is very hard to find!"
"Absolutely loved my meal at Bombay Street Food. The Malai Kofta was rich, creamy, and full of authentic flavor, perfectly complemented by the warm, fluffy Garlic Naan.

"the Chicken Tikka Masala Pizza is honestly a must-have. It is SO good. The crust is not too thick or too thin and it's just so delicious. It keeps in the fridge for your next day snack too. Their Garlic Naan always stays soft even after a night in the fridge!"
"The mango lassi was amazing with fresh cardamom. The veggie samosas were delicious, as were the sauces. The butter chicken is great, the sauce is perfect, but medium spice was more mild. The garlic naan was some of the worst naan I've ever had. I feel like they might use the pizza dough to make the naan, as it was thick. The pizza slice came to us seeming not fresh. Overall, I would def order from here again, it's the best butter chicken in DC in my opinion. Love the mango lassi. Rice was good too."

"I usually love ordering from here, but why did the quality go down? DoorDash resolved my issue, but they only packed 1 Samosa (2) into the box when it should come with 2, as advertised. Then the sauces on the side are each filled only halfway, when they are always full, otherwise. I also ordered the Dal Makhani, which is very different from all the other times I've ordered it. There seems to be a lot of oils on the top and it's more red than brown.. Everything tasted ok, just different than it did less than a month ago.😔"

"I was wondering why the samosa with chutney was $8. How many samosas did it have?? I ordered it anyway and was thrown off by the fact that is a dish, like a deconstructed samosa. And then had to eat my words bc it was SO GOOD. Everything else was delicious too (though I love garlic and the garlic naan was a little too much for me so I'm getting regular next time). Great stuff. "
"Try the Vegetable Momo's 6 pcs .. they are heavenly. Their samosas are also very delish. I would however, skip the Rice Pudding , it was tasteless. We had the Non-Veg Meal with Butter Chicken and Aloo Ghobi... both of which were very tasty, well worth the price and plenty of food for 4."

"I ordered the PANEER MAKHAN MASALA and NAAN. The paneer tasted very good -- tangy and tomatoey. The value was awful, as they only put something like 10-15 small paneer cubes in the dish. Do not order this unless you want to feel starved afterwards."

"The chicken Tandoori Spiced Wings were delicious, the dipping sauce had a powerful kick, and the naan was soft and buttery."
"The wings were decent, but the Chicken tikka masala was god awful. It had not taste, chicken was hard, and why does it have potatoes in this dish! Portion size was small for the price. The rice labeled as Basmati were definitely not Basmati, and they were certainly recooked and not fresh at all. Not going to order from here ever again"

"I ordered the chicken friend noodles it was absolutely delicious. Try the mango drink you won't be disappointed, the food here is perfect."
"Overall hit or miss - Tandoori Chicken Biryani was best of the bunch. Butter Chicken came with only 1/2 a piece of Naan, Garlic Naan covered with minced garlic from a jar almost inedible and Ras Ras Malai (3) looked awful and only came with 1, not 3."

"The Paneer Tikka Masala was incredible- great flavor and a good portion of paneer. The Vegetable Samosa were delicious and big. The Garlic Naan was fine, nothing special. The Steamed Veg.

"The food from Tikka stood out in taste the same way as I last dined there. They achieve a balance of flavors that's unparalleled. When I unwrapped the packaging of the Onion Kulcha I was hit with a burst of aroma! with every bite, I experienced the crunch of the onions and chewiness of the bread. The Amchur Bhindi Masala maintained the crunch of the Okra while the sauce coated the pieces. I was truly blown away by The dum Biryani With Raita for it's texture and incorporation of Jackfruit which did not make me miss any chicken! The raita had rock salt which just reminded me of home! Will certainly order from here again!"

"Masala Aloo gobi spicy and succulent with a surprise of green bell pepper and tomatoes, delicious when scooped up with garlic naan. Hot poori bhaji (with potatoes )is another consistently tasteful treat . Add samosas, mint chutney, tamarind chutney, and fiery tomato chutney and enjoy.

"DELICIOUS and beautiful! The Chicken 65 was a great amount of food and so was the the Butter Chicken Wings. I got medium spicy for both and it was the perfect "my mouth is tingly but I'm not dying and it's flavorful" level of spice I wanted. "
"Loved the dosa and chutney. Sambar was very less but otherwise everything was great. Felt satisfied with such a flavourful dosa. Have tried dosa at many other places but I was left disappointed by every other place. But from Sundara Everything felt fresh. Would definitely order dosa from here again. But then please give more sambar."

The Saag Paneer was good. Flavor was there, but the paneer wasn't fried/grilled/etc. 4/5

"Best it's ever been! Chicken wasn't overcooked and sauce was thick and creamy and delicious. Rice had a perfect bite to it"
"I give a mixed review. My husband loved his paneer tandoori. He liked the naan. I thought it was undercooked . I got the chicken tandoori. There was very little meat, two small chicken legs, small thigh and small piece of chicken breast, basically mostly bones. Neither of our dishes came with the option to buy rice although other dishes on the menu did offer that option. We were not given the choice of spice level and I found my dish bland. "
