"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."

"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. "

Not enough potatoes in the (GF) Shrimp Vindaloo. So much curry sauce and so little actual meat and paneer. "

"Saw this as a new option and wanted to give it a try - what a mistake! Forgot one item and the remaining were underwhelming. (GF) Paneer Makhani was too sweet, (GF) (N) Goat Cheese Malai Dumplings were sad tiny dumplings drowned in a flavorless sauce, and all the portions were smaller than any other Indian I've ordered.

"Loved the dosa and chutney. Sambar was very less but otherwise everything was great. Felt satisfied with such a flavourful dosa.

"Food was well-seasoned, but portions were a joke. They have a lot of nerve charging $30 for a literal cup of rice and a few small cubes of meat. Much nicer restaurants than this charge the same amount for three times as much food. I really hope they figure this out because the chef seems to be very talented and I would hate to see them fail so soon. "

"It is far better to just order in person in my opinion. The food is amazing however when ordering online what we got on our food was far different from what we get when ordering in person. The Combo Loaded Fries are delicious and usually come with far more toppings and sauces when you get it in person. However when picking it up it lacked some toppings and had no sauce. They also took longer to finish cooking it despite me ordering 30 minutes ahead and setting a pickup time Overall great spot! Far better inperson however and worth the extra wait if you do go inperson."

"The Goat was cooked to perfection, and the variety of rice grain usage was great, the colourful dish is a splash of flavour in your mouth and on your plate. The Lamb Shank Rogan Josh was mildly spiced, allowing the tender notes of the meat to come through, and it was tender and slow cooked just the right way. The Chicken Malai Kabab was moist and full of delicious notes of lemon, the char on it is fantastic, I love dipping it in the Raita, it just gives it a delicious mix of flavours."

"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.

"Not the BEST Indian you can find, but it gets the job done. The mango lassi and saffron cream dessert were excellent 10/10. The chicken momos were also quite good and possibly better than other places serving them in the area. Freshly steamed and tasty. And they give you a lot for the price. The butter masala was the only thing that was meh. The quality of the chicken was good, but the sauce lacked a robust flavor profile. The rice also could be improved upon."

"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!"

"The food is flavorful with the right amount of spice—especially for me. When mixed with the rice, it balances out just right. I’m from Texas, and I will say it is seasoned and spicy to my liking as well. 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!"

"Wowwwwww. Great Curry Pakora!!! I like that it was gravy, onions and pakora. Some places load it with ginger and other spices. chicken 65 felt a little pricey at $10 for the small serving, but its so good, I'll order it again, they got me hooked. Twice now this place has knocked my socks off."

"Vindaloo In Vain Goat, Vindaloo In Vain Chicken , Seasoned Masala Fries, and Choose Chicken Seekh Kabab were absolutely delicious and a good kick in the taste buds. Best Indian I've had in the area. Quality is consistent. Order is acknowledged and prepared quickly."

"I used to order from here at least every two weeks, but my last order was disappointing. The chicken seekh kebab (app or entree) was no longer on the menu. The lamb seekh kebab was only available as an entree. But what really disappointed me was the vindaloo, my go to Indian dish for the last 30 years. The heat level was right, but it had no flavor, no hint of tang from the vinegar. Nothing."

"#6. Chicken Seekh Kabob was so taste but rice portion is small . It should be enough because the price we pay is pretty much expensive "

"Chicken Seekh Kabob - 1pc for $5 was little pricey.. expected atleast 2 pc .. but taste was ok.. not worth the price. Chicken Haleem (Sat & Sun) the quantity was good taste was ok... not great but good .. $20 was too much as compared to other restaurant that offers between $12-16 are much more tastier and flavorful but this was just ok... not worth the price... expected more bold flavors but not for a $20 price.. too much.. but once spend is an experience to not order next time. Fresh Bread - They were pretty soft... compared to any other restaurants .. naan and rotis.. this one was different.. I had ordered 2 ... but received 3 .. not sure why... (may be 1 complimentory with the seekh kabob)... but liked it.. soft well baked..undoubtedly good .. combined well with the Chicken Seekh Kabob and Chicken Haleem (Sat & Sun) ..... Rasmalai - Must Try !- It was the show stopper.... Very different... till date what i have received from other restaurant seemed similar to the packed ras malai that is available in most of the freezers in Indian grocery store.. But this ras malai seemed inhouse hand made.. fresh and delicate... the taste and flavors were unique and delicious. Absolutely, 1 is not enough if you are a sweet lover... $5.99 worth the price the taste and it was Awesome undoubtedly....🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶"

"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!"

"The butter chicken was excellent! My husband and I shared that, the kale (favorite of everything!) and the cauliflower appetitizers and left very full. Staff were attentive and friendly."

"We frequently order from the Cameron Station location and love it! But could not justify the price for the portion sizes we received from this location. Over $5 for one piece of naan was especially disappointing. The entree containers were also small for the price."

"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. "
