"Steamed Chicken Momo's 6 pcs ad the Non-Veg Meal are great deals and very tasty. the LAMB KADAI was very flavorful, good amount of meat...it's on the end of the menu and easy to miss... mix it up a bit, the oil seperates. Chef special biryani is a great deal withe meats- shrimp is large."
"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."

"FINALLY found excellent Indian food in Bethesda that tastes authentic! We loved everything we tried: butter chicken was properly spiced and not so overly sweet (but my kids still loved it), saag paneer was vibrant and flavorful, and the tandoori wings were the best I've had. Can't wait to try everything else!!"
"The best Saag Paneer in the DMV! It's fresh, flavorful, and the spice level is perfect. The sharing size is a great price and I can get 2-3 meals out of it. It also comes with a big portion of rice, so no need to order extra. The Garlic Naan is huge and good as well."

"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!!"

"Palak Aur Kajoor chaat was excellent. Butter chicken was good. Could have used more chicken. Chaat reheated well in the air fryer. I'll definitely order that again. Paneer dish I got last time was very good too."
"Chicken Korma came with rice and was excellently creamy and rich. For the price, I was expecting a much bigger portion size.
Tofu Manchurian wasn't my favorite because it was a softer tofu than I was expecting. It wasn't crispy in the slightest, it sits in a thick liquid and is soggy. The flavor was good though, it has a tiny bit of spice that builds."

"The best Indian food I have ever had. Been consistently ordering from them for years and they NEVER disappoint. My fave is the tandoori salmon but every dish I have tried has been fantastic. They've also been really good about any special requests I've made. It's never over-spicy or over-oily and always full of flavor. This is my go-to Indian place and no matter what other restaurant I try, it never lives up to this place. "
"Samosa was perfection, potato chaat was so satisfying, chicken tikka was rich without being too heavy, naan was so garlicky and pillowy. I never leave reviews but this was amazing - my husband and I were blown away! Food was in large portions and everything tasted fresh and homemade. This is officially in our rotation and we can wait to order again!"

The portions are also generous! I will absolutely be ordering again and honestly sad it's not closer to me but I will make the drive for them! You can tell all the food is made fresh because this restaurant makes the block smell delicious!"
"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 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!"
"Ordered the spicy wings not bad but $12 for four chicken wings is crazy. Butter masala chicken was terrible, inedibly sweet like bizarrely sweet it was gross. Also extremely small for the $26 like 8 little cubes of chicken. "

"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. "

"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."

"Great portion size of the 16 oz Chicken Biryani! I got a meal for like the entire week out of this. It was delicious and still hot when I got it and the Mango Lassi was also delicious and smooth. The Samosa Chaat was also very tasty and great with crackers! Will order again again!"

"Based on food from around 10 to 15 different Indian restaurants, this place has the best South Indian food. Thank you so much! Special mention to the packaging for delivery. The only place that sends dosa separately packed so it doesn't lose its texture, shape, and crispiness. Kudos to your efforts and consideration."
"If I could give this place 10 stars, I would. The food is absolutely delicious... authentic South Indian flavors, perfectly spiced and seasoned, and the dosas are wonderfully crisp. Just a tip: dosas are always best fresh, so I definitely recommend eating in the restaurant rather than taking them to go. South Indian food doesn’t travel as well, and this spot is worth enjoying in their location."

"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. "

"This is as close to actual Indian food as you can get in DC. Everything was great. The kadhai mutton was as good as I've had in India. The chicken 65 was a bit more sour than I expected but five stars nonetheless. The kulcha is surprisingly large and soft, and goes well with the curry. Would order again."

"Delicious food, and great bogo deals. I like the Chicken Tikka Masala and the wife likes the Chana Masala. Solid choices, and I will try other items in the future!"
"The Chicken Tikka Masala was very good, and had a nice balance between the sweet and savory. The portions were solid, too. 5/5
Chana Masala - wife said it was really good. 5/5
Garlic Naan was tasty. A little spongy (probably since it was wrapped up), but perfect for tossing in the air fryer for a minute or two. 4.5/5

The Saag Paneer was good. Flavor was there, but the paneer wasn't fried/grilled/etc. 4/5

"This consistently is the BEST chicken tikka masala - and garlic naan - in DC!"
"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!"

"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 mango lassi was amazing with fresh cardamom. The veggie samosas were delicious, as were the sauces. The butter chicken is great, the sauce is perfect, but medium spice was more mild. The garlic naan was some of the worst naan I've ever had. I feel like they might use the pizza dough to make the naan, as it was thick. The pizza slice came to us seeming not fresh. Overall, I would def order from here again, it's the best butter chicken in DC in my opinion. Love the mango lassi. Rice was good too."
