"The Chicken Tikka Masala was flavorful and the chicken was cut up into smaller pieces which made it easy to eat. The Garlic Naan was tasty and came with 2 large pieces. The Butter Chicken was also delicious and creamy. "
"Food was great. Chicken Tikka Masala was not too oily. The sauce was not too over powering. Garlic Naan was tasty. The portions were huge. I ordered two Garlic Naan since normally in most Indian restaurants the naan's are small - not here. They gave me two sides of rice though I thought it will only come with one rice. The price is affortable. Perfect for two people, and we still had leftover. Highly recommend this place. "

"Madras Palace is a vegetarian Indian restaurant. I was happy the Vegetable Noodles were medium spice level as I made a special request. The portion was delicious and generous so I got 3 meals out of my 2 orders. The Vegetable Thali was a sampler of 8 different dishes(7 savory/1 sweet). It also included rice and I large whole wheat flatbread. I enjoyed 6/8: 1 was just too spicy for me and I'm a baker so the soft dessert didn't appeal to me. Overall I thought it was a good may to explore their menu."

"I just want to update the negative review I left yesterday upon opening the package for hungry kids who literally barely had enough and we're already complaining...
The other dishes that I pulled later had a normal amount in the boxes so I can only assume the 2 were a fluke. Sadly kids are an unforgiving crowd.
The food was good though. I give 5 stars to try and even out the 2 from yesterday. "
"The goat biryani had significantly less meat than it usually does. The same was true for the goat korma—it was mostly gravy with very few pieces of meat. I have ordered from this restaurant many times before and have always had a good experience, which is why this was especially disappointing. This is the first time the quality and portion sizes have fallen so far below my expectations."

"Absolute best Lamb Biryani that I have ever had!! Expertly seasoned rice and large and plentiful chunks of lamb. The Indian Spiced Hummus was delightful and a good portion as well. My new favorite Indian restaurant. Me and my spouse both have plenty of leftovers. Good bang for your buck. Trust. "
"Don't be scared off by the price tag or lack of %off deals. The portions are so generous that each entree yields two full meals. The food is always excellent. Generous amount of meat in the biryanis and perfect proportion of paneer in the Saag Paneer. The Chicken Tikka Masala is always a favorite. Butter Chicken is basically the same flavors, but a little more rich. Also delicious. The rice here particularly stands out over other Indian restaurants in the area. So good we often order extra even though they provide enough."

"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!"

"They were out of spinach so I ended up with lamb rogenjosh rather than Lamb Saag but it was great! I'm not sure what some of these reviews are talking about when they complain about flavor. Most reviews were correct- very delicious, very flavorful- I almost wish I'd gone medium instead of hot/spicy for the two meat dishes as it was quite hot! But every dish was a party in my mouth from the Samosa Chaat to the Vegetable Samosa (2 pcs.)and the Chicken Momo (Nepali)! Glad I over ordered bc I'm happy to make several meals out of this. Highly recommend. So glad Methi is so close to me!"
"The Lamb Saag was so good. It was hot, fresh and very tasteful. Also a good portion. I didn't realized it was coming with rice already, so I ordered a size of rice, and received two.

"My goodness... WOW! Every single dish was outstanding. I walk by this place all the time, and was hesitant because the previous owner never had anybody in the restaurant, and the reviews were poor. Then Mandala took over, and I have slowly seen it getting busier and busier. Then the other day, an Indian foodie friend told me the food was excellent. And then another person said you gotta try it.
I don't know why I waited this long, but this is some of the best Indian food I have ever had... and we've been to just about all of them in the DC Metro area, including Rasika. Great job, Mandala! I'll be walking over there for more of your food very soon!!!"

"I've only ever tried the butter chicken with garlic naan but it's SO good on my life yall gotta try it. But then again I've never tried any other Indian food so take it with a grain of salt. Portions are fine and I would def order again cuz I'm big and greedy"
"they skimp here. did not state that half the non-veg box was half rice/biryani. the chicken biryani only had 3 pieces of chicken. it only said it came with naan so I was expecting more of my entree not a ton more rice. But the entrees are wayyyy too salty anyway. It overpowers the flavors and is not enjoyable at all. I ordered the non-veg box and one entree was chicken, the other was chickpea. the incorrect description was deceptive and the food did not taste good. they also packaged curry using paper boxes. they did wrap it in plastic wrap but once you take that off, it's so messy becuase the curry is seeping through the entire box and leaking out holes worn in the bottom."

Food is decent but could also be better. Some parts of the chicken/meat are weirdly mushy - maybe it was marinated too long? The rice also is also somewhat mushy and not fluffy. Spice and seasoning is fine (although a little more wouldn't go amiss) and the kulcha seems good as well. The chana masala is sweeter than what I usually encounter - not sure if this is a regional variation or adapted to the typical American palette. "

"The chicken rice bowl *chef's kiss* flavorful, easy to eat, more than enough serving, and very kind staff! Going back again!"
"This is like Pakistani Chipotle but even better! The ingredients are fresh, quality, unprocessed real food, and full servings of flavorful food. And finally a full variety of actually tasty vegetarian options. The Red Kidney Bean Rice Bowl was so savory and one of my new cravable favorites. The Baklava is good and a decent size. The Hummus with Pita and Samosa Chaat are authentic and fresh. Salad was bland but super fresh. One samosa for $5 is actually insane but at least it was a perfectly made samosa. This place is now in top rotation."

"We've order the red snapper from tandoori nights frequently. This time they were so small that they added another small fish. Because they were small, there was no fish only bones! I would never had ordered it knowing it was so small. We spent over $200 and had to fill up on the sides. Very disappointing! And, of course we had company."

"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. "

"So delicious. Excellent flavor on our whole order. The paneer in the saag paneer were a great texture. Firm enough that they didn't fall apart but still a soft bite. Not squeaky or plasticky. The aloo gobi was packed! Nothing worse than being super hungry but getting a lot of the curry sauce but not much substance. We weren't disappointed. Chicken tikka masala had the perfect amount of heat for our family. Can't wait to have the leftovers tomorrow! "
"This was my first time trying Chicken Korma and it was a generous portion. The chicken is very tender and beautifully infused with wonderful spices. I am glad that I ordered Naan to go with it because it just goes well with the chicken. I love the taste of this dish and would definitely recommend it and order it again. Their samosas are very good. Overall this was a delicious meal. The flavoring of the rice medley by the way was a wonderful surprise, not just plain rice. Thank you for the satisfying and delicious meal."

"Nando's is super-reliable, quick, and makes the most amazingly delicious Veggie Burgers! I love to get mine with the mango sauce. When they have it, I also like to get it with a matchingly-flavoured mango lemonade -- mmm beyond belief! The mash (red-skinned mashed potatoes) are incredibly good, and I just fried the coleslaw for the first time -- I was pleasantly surprised to find that warm, and whether that was on purpose or not (I imagine it must've been.), it was a really nice new experience plus delicious! Of course, I love a good crunch -- and the slaw delivered that; it's also nice, so I found, to take a bit of mash and a bit of slaw together in one spoonful .... "

"I was really disappointed with the Butter Chicken. For one thing it was extremely spicy and I wasn't expecting that at all. I would not have ordered it if I knew that. For another thing, there was a very small amount of chicken for the cost.
Other items were decent, I particularly liked the Eggplant Kara Kulambu, great flavors. But I had a hard time eating after the spicy butter chicken. "

"The Garlic Naan was unfortunately cold, even though I live very near by and picked it up right away (was home in 3 minutes). The portion sizes are very good and everything tasted okay. The Indian Hot option was still very mild, which was disappointing especially for the vindaloo. Despite being a bit mild, the Chana masala and vindaloo were still nice."
