"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."

"This little place serves the most delicious Indian food!!! Have dined inside the restaurant too and hands down it's my favorite Indian food in DMV. Please add Malai Kofta in doordash menu. You guys make it the best but doordash doesn't have it. "

"The food was delicious and tasted authentic bengali . The Channa Dal tasted the same as Bengali chholar dal back home in Kolkata. Dal puri was bigger in size than I expected and tasted same as back home. However it was quite oily. I would order again from here and try out the other dishes such as phuchka. I haven't visited the restaurant so I can't comment on the hygiene and cleanliness. "
"The payesh was exactly as I remembered it in Bangladesh, better even . Choir was fantastic. Kacchi was oily but that's understandable. Good flavor. Shami kebab was great. Overall, great experience. I'm a regular now."

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!"

"JACKFRUIT BIRYANI was sub par- had a slightly sweet taste. Was not bad but not what you would expect taste wise for the price. It's great that Viraaj has some unique dishes but too expensive for the quantity and quality.
SAAG PANEER too salty and really small portion for an entree. Again not worth the value especially when there are so many options in the neighborhood.

"Chicken Tikka Masala was delicious. not the most chicken but I'm sure I could order extra if I really wanted and for the price it's super tasty. also they don't skimp on the Garlic Naan.
My bestie said the Butter Chicken was 4/5."
"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.😔"

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."

"The butter chicken is absolutely delicious. I also love the vegetable samosas and somasa chat. I usually get the garlic naan which is fabulous as well. My only complaint is the price! $7 delivery fee--why??"
"Pakora were crispy! Sauce of cilantro (coriander herb, dhaniya, dhaniyan) was tangy, thin, & a tiny bit spicy. Sauce of tamarind (imli) was tangy, thin, & sweet. Each sauce was in a container big enough for dipping.
Cho‐e‐la (choila, cho‐e la) was shredded, very tender, well cooked, well seasoned duck (like pulled pork) with thin, tender pieces of onion. Came with a slice of cucumber, a slice of raw carrot, & chopped iceberg lettuce, all fresh & crisp. Underneath was a bed of baji (rice flakes) that had a slight rancid smell. The baji & veggies nicely balance the salt in the duck.
Chana masala had Kabuli chana (garbanzos, chickpeas) in a thin, mild sauce with tomato bits. Description mentions potato, surprising me. Dish has no potato, not surprising me.
Basmati rice was plump, tender but firm, hydrated but separate, seasoned with cumin (jeera), and almost all unbroken: perfect!"

"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!"
"Really impressed with this order from Tikka! Everything was well spiced and packed with flavor, the Vindaloo and Tikka Masala had great depth, and the Samosas were a highlight, especially the sauces that came alongside them. The Raita was fresh and creamy, and both the Salted and Strawberry Lassis had a great yogurt base that felt authentic rather than watered down.
Portions were generous, plenty of food for the meal plus solid leftovers the next day, which is always a win. Everything arrived hot and well packaged, which isn't a given with delivery. The Fruit Naan was a nice touch too."

"I've been wanting to try this place for a while and finally ordered tonight. Omg it is so good. The Samosa Burrito is as unbelievably delicious as it sounds. Savory, sweet, spicy, and just an incredibly tasty combination of flavors and textures. It's also huge and great for sharing and/or leftovers for lunch tomorrow. Also got a side of Palak Paneer which is also fantastic, very flavorful with plenty of spice. I did not see an option to dial down the heat so proceed with caution. And don't forget to order a side of rice with it. Oh and of course get you some Plain Naan. Chit Chaat's is tender and delicious. Loved all of it and will definitely be back!"

"Very very tasty without being too salty or too oily. The flavors mesh together well and are a wonderful composition. "
"Meh. Food was ok, but overpriced compared to other places. The korma was good and the best item in the order. The Chana masala was too acidic and lacked complexity, so I felt overall let down. The way the items were packed for delivery was also a mess---the raita went everywhere when I opened it. Maybe I just ordered on an off night, but I don't think I will order from here again."

"The food was very tasty (and spicy!) but we felt they were a stingy on the portions for the price and the fact that one garlic naan was almost $5. We did not like the pickles, as they were overwhelmingly spiced (cardamom? star anise?). "
"The food arrived hot and quickly. Food wasn't spicy at all, but it was good. For the price of the Chicken Tikka Masala I would think there would be more chicken. The chicken came with rice so there is no need to order any. The Samosa was absolutely delicious!"

"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."

"Jackfruit Curry is amazing and hard to find at most places - deep roasted spicy flavors - definitely worth trying! Mutter Paneer is perfect! Rich creamy well-seasoned sauce, plump peas, and perfectly squidgy paneer. Samosa Chaat is everything you want it to be. Bhel Puri is the only surprise - seems like it's missing some ingredients? What I got tastes fine but no potato or samosa chips so it's a little lighter than I'm used to. "
"What a scam... $18 for Vegetable Korma and it came in a tiny soup container with 2 pieces of tofu, 3 slices of carrots and the rest just peas and sauce. I used to love this place but this is just ridiculous "

"We *love* Namaste. Delicous, accurate, and fast every time we've ordered. We switch up our orders but have never been disappointed. I'm a big fan of their bhindi (okra), aloo gobhi (cauliflower and peas), and mulagatwani (spiced lentil) soup; my husband swears by the lamb curry. Always well-packed and hot on arrival. 5/5 for take-home Indian."
"For the Chicken Tikka Masala, the portion size was kind of on the smaller side. Flavors were great. But I counted probably only 6 pieces of chicken in the actual stew, which was pretty disappointing for the price.
The Aaloo Tikki was a new try for me. After googling what it was, I expected potato cakes with some sort of a dipping sauce onthe side. What I got was a chickpea stew with 2 breaded potato cakes inside it. It was garnished with pomegranate seeds, which I didnt care for. Wouldnt order this dish again.
The Tandoori Wings were really good! Lots of flavor and very tender!
The Lamb Vindaloo was spicy and flavorful, but again, portion size for the price is lacking.

"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. "

"I ordered the Veg Biryani and the Butter Naan and they both were excellent. This is probably the best Indian food in the whole area. I will keep ordering from Minerva often. 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. "

"Are these the best Chicken Steam Momo in the area?! Quite possibly yes. They are savory comfort food with abundant filling and sauces that set them apart. I tried the Strawberry Lassi instead my usual Mango, and it was delicious and satisfying."
"The shrimp chow mein noodles were hard and the dish only had 2 shrimps. The biryani had dark meat chicken and the rice didn't taste like Biryani which I have had many times from othet restaurants. The bread tasted raw. I would discourage from eating from this place. The Samosa seemed old and was greasy, yuk!"
