"SO GOOD. I got the medium spiced CHICKEN MASALA and it was perfect. If you are sensitive to spice I would say choose the lowest, but if you like spice, but not too much, medium is perfect! The GARLIC NAAN tasted amazing. Great flavor. "

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 recently tried the goat biryani, and it was absolutely delicious! The flavors were rich and well-balanced, with no unpleasant smell at all. The portion was generous, packed with tender meat that was perfectly cooked. Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and I can’t wait to enjoy it again!It would be great if they opened a branch in Stamford,CT

"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!"

"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."

"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!"

"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."

The food doesn’t seem like a lot at first, but it is definitely filling.
I actually bought this once before maybe a week ago but forgot to upload the picture, so I’ll upload it with this one. The older one is the picture with the cut-up naan, and today’s meal is the picture with the whole naan. Although it’s cut up in the older photo, I do believe the naan added up to a whole piece.
The naan is very garlicky (aromatic)and flavorful—definitely homemade, which makes it worth the price!"

"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 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!!"

"Leaned towards warm spices. Very flavorful. Gobi Lasooni Ⓥ was a standout. Sweet, sticky, jammy onion flavor packed goodness. Palak Chaat was solid. Butter Chicken ★was more heavily spiced than usual, but quite tasty. Vegetable Samosa ★ Ⓥ were quite fragrant with a lovely crust. Reasonable portions and price."
"Chicken tikka masala & garlic naan are amazing. Only issue is the portion size for the palak chaat.. was really disappointed as I've gotten this dish from other places and the portion at taj of India is about half for the same price."

"The vindaloo was absolutely delicious, the portions were very generous for the price and it came with rice (which not all indian restaurants include with the main dish). You could easily get two servings or more out of one of their mains. "
"I have tried almost all of the chicken curries at this restaurant and I can confidently say that this is as close as it gets to authentic Indian food than any other restaurant in DC. Amazing taste, with unique blend of spices for each curry dish. Just tried kadhai chicken and was pleasantly surprised again!"

"Possibly the best tasting food I've ever had- not "Indian" food, food.
That said the portion size relative to the cost is appallingly small. I got a Kathi roll ($14) and cauliflower pakoras ($12) for a total of $26 before taxes and fees. I've had amazing kathi rolls in NYC and Philly for $6-$7, so I just assumed these would be bigger since they're twice the price and those cities are comparable to the DC food scene. The one I had from Bindaas turned out to be even smaller.
I personally don't have a problem paying more for food in a restaurant when there's service being provided and you have the ability to easily order more. But I'm still hungry after spending $26 on a takeout order when I usually don't even spend half as much. "
"I was surprised at how good this meal was! The dal makhani was more flavorful and had more of a spice kick than I am used to for this dish, but it really added something to the food beyond lentil and cream. The basmati rice was fragrant and well cooked. Will order again!"

"this restaurant has, quite frankly, the best Butter Chicken I've ever had. the Palak Paneer is good as well, but the butter chicken is beyond good. they give you a really solid amount of food for the price as well: spending ~$45 has gotten me easily 3-4 days of food for myself, which is well worth the price imo"
"Ordered here for the first time bc our usual go-to Indian place has been inconsistent lately. The Butter Chicken was on the sweet side, but my family still enjoyed it. The chicken wasn't as tender as some other places though. The Lamb Rogan Josh was mild in flavor but very tender. The Tandoori Chicken was a huge serving but was again not the juiciest tandori I've had. The Palak Paneer was good. Large portion. Lots of cheese. Good flavor. The Chicken Cheese Naan was delicious. First time we've ever had that. The nans were good too. Nice and fluffy. The MoMo Chicken dumplings were delicious but fiery! We weren't expecting that since the description didn't mention anything about it being spicy. The Mango Lassi was yummy, but the color is very bright orange and off putting. Looks like way too much food coloring. Overall, we'd order from here again."

"Food was really good and nice to see some interesting options which turned out well (Kale goat cheese olive kulcha naan, Quinoa Sun Dried Tomato Kale Kofta Turmeric & Coconut Sauce, Spinach Pakora Chaat, Lashooni Cauliflower). Felt like quality food too, not super oily like some places. My only critiques, if I had to nitpick, are I wish the naan was much thinner and wish the goat cheese kulcha had more actual goat cheese (was a very minor amount, flecks here and there, vs I hoped for it as a filling/spread inside). Would not hesitate to order any of the items again though."
"The best Indian food, hands down!!! They are willing to make any sauce vegan. When I found out I'm allergic to casein I could no longer eat Indian food. Thanks to Spice Kraft and their willingness to use coconut milk, instead of yogurt and milk, I've fallen in love with Indian food all over again! The chettinadu is amazing, the vegan blueberry rice pudding is incredible, vegetable korma...everything is awesome! I order from here every time I'm in DC!"

"There are so many Indian restaurants in DC and I have not found my go to place until now. This place just opened up recently and thank goodness because everything I've had from here so far is amazing. I am extremely picky about my Indian flavors and oh my God the dishes I've had from here just exudes multidimensional flavors that I expect from Indian or Nepalese cuisine. The lamb Rogan Josh was creamier than I'm used to, but had amazing flavor. The lamb madras was good, but just mild in flavor. The Lamb Curry is great. Exactly what you expect from a lamb curry with amazing flavors. I will eventually order most of the dishes here and hopefully they will be just as good. "
