"A loyal customer of Taj of India for a decade now, this is the only Indian restaurant I'll order from and my go-to when I need a pick me up, when I want to celebrate something, or when I just want to treat myself. The Lamb Roganjosh is so warm and flavorful, and it literally melts in your mouth. Even the rice it comes with is fragrant and tasty on its own. The butter chicken and the tikka masala are also part of my regular rotation. The Garlic Naan is perfect by itself or dragged through sauce, and the cheese naan is just as good. I also love getting a side order of the Daal Soup and adding the Rice Kheer my cart right before I check out because I can never resist it --- perfectly creamy for dessert but not too sweet, which is exactly what I like. I can't say enough good things about this restaurant!"

"Best Indian food ive found in dc! Ordered the half size of butter chicken and it was more than enough for one person. Palak and Samosa Chaats were both amazing. This will definitely be my new go to place. "
"the Butter Chicken is EXACTLY how it should be, and the Palak Paneer was almost perfect as well. My only complaint is that there's not *quite* enough rice for the serving, but honestly that's just because the curry serving is so generous. I am definitely reordering from here again."

"Spinach Chat was as amazing as other reviews suggested - tamrind goodness, what a special dish. Garlic Naan wasnt as soft/pillowy as I've grown to expect, but good vehicle for other flavors. Jhol (Soup) Mo:Mo [No Gluten-Free] was pretty good, I ended up liking the dough and the filling separately - clearly well crafted though, and I just eat weird. Side sauce did not have much flavor and soup base was not addicting as I like soups to be. Definitely fresh and I would make someone go in just to share the Spinach Chat with me, so they could experience it!"

"This place is amazing! Having lived all over the world and eating Indian food, this place has great taste and the right amount of heat. Their "spicy" is definitely more flavored towards traditional American "spicy" but given that the flavors come through a lot more. The lamb is very tasty and their naan is delicious, hopefully they add a garlic cheese naan to the menu! The rice was not your traditional basmati with cardamum, but was a little more buttery. Highly recommend this place."

"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 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."

"They have THEE best Butter Chicken (Signature Dish)and the chickpeas are to die for! I normally get extra rice and Naan. Definitely a favorite"
"Genuinely the worst butter chicken I've ever had. It's bland and yet also disgustingly sweet and the two sides they give you were basically just a single bite of pitiful food. There was barely any food included and the packaging is not as nice or full as the pictures at all. The naan was also sickeningly sweet it's like they added sugar to everything instead of flavour. Do not go here!! I will never order from here again. There are plenty of other Indian cuisine places that do it much better like Indigo. I love their butter chicken."

"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!"

"Biryani City has become one of my go to restaurants to order from when I have a craving for South Indian food. Excellent portions, always hits the spot with the flavors!
This was a group order with non- south- Asians and they did a great job adjusting the spice levels!"

"
"The food was basic and not very flavorful. You've had better. Try somewhere else if you're looking for authentic Indian flavors. I got the Shrimp Curry & Rice the shrimp are small and I paid extra for extra shrimp and I only had 8 in total. This is a skip for me, you can get better elsewhere. The Garlic Naan was okay but again very little garlic. "
