Curry Mantra - Fairfax

My roommates and I had a tough, cold, rainy day, so we decided to order takeout from Curry Mantra. The online ordering process was quick and easy, and our food was ready for pickup on time. The staff member at the front desk confirmed my first name and then double-checked with my first and last name on the receipt to prevent any mix-ups. I really appreciated this attention to detail, as I have received incorrect orders from other restaurants in the past due to similar errors.

Customer service was bad. Food tasted terrible. Lamb was Not tender and also was really dry., samosas were old, chicken tikka looked like blood and the chicken was so dry it gave me migraines. The men didn?t even ask us to sign the receipt because knew wouldn?t get a tip. Think about how aware you have to be of how rude you are to customers in order to not even try to get a tip. They charged extra for everything including rice and raita (which was overly sour) although we

Food was decent and hot. We did a takeout. The alu parathas could be better. Momo's were quite good.

I ordered through a delivery app and found the main dishes to be acceptable. However, I was greatly let down by the portion size of the pista kulfi ice cream. For $5.95, I received a cup that was the size of a condiment. It was packaged in a larger styrofoam bowl with ice alongside the hot food. It would have been better if they placed it directly in the foam bowl and in a separate bag. The menu should clearly state that the portion size is only around 3 ounces.

This restaurant in Fairfax is truly a hidden gem! They serve the most delicious Indian cuisine in Northern Virginia. The Chicken 65 appetizer and Butter Chicken curry are absolutely delicious and a must-try. Once you dine here, I'm sure you'll quickly consider it one of your top favorite restaurants.
