Reviews for London Curry House in Alexandria, VA
Indochen is by far the best restaurant in the northern VA area. Not just Indian. The menu is concise and everything is executed... with perfection. If you?re on the fence about where to eat, choose Indochen. Read more
A class in hospitality, incredible food and flavors. One of my all time favorite!
I'm more familiar with their sister restaurant Royal Nepal, but finally made it out to London Curry House recently and was quite... impressed by the execution and quality of the food. The immediately surrounding area is a bit weird and stepford-y, but itwasn't very difficult to find parking on the street and the spots were pretty big. The restaurant itself was spotless and hadreally cool decor (but also screens with all the relevant sports at the bar, just in case). They had a private room in the frontthat would have been great for a big group. We ordered WAY too much food in an effort to try as much as possible, and I can'tthink of anything we didn't like. The aged manhattan was very smooth and beautifully presented. The curry sampler and thetandoori platter were great ways to have a lot of variety pretty easily. My favorite curry we tried was the eggplant and peanutone, but my friend was very taken with the palak paneer. It's hard to choose a favorite from everything, but the lamb chops werepretty high up on the list, especially given the cranberry raita because I've never seen that before and it's a Good Idea. Theonion-stuffed paratha were also amazing and I would go back for those alone. The main meal being excellent would have beenenough, but the desserts were also great, and surprisingly innovative. The puffed tapioca on top of the tapioca pudding dessertwas such a cool touch. If you're nearby, what are you waiting for?! If you're farther away, definitely consider going out ofyour way. I know I will be planning my next visit soon. Read more
Probably the best Indian restaurant in the Alexandria area. It's tucked away in a neighborhood so not visible from any major... roads. We enjoyed both of our food and ambiance. Server was friendly and helpful recommending dishes. Their sauces were verycreamy and flavorful. Read more
What a lovely place for a delicious meal! We recieved a friendly welcome and absolutely wonderful service from start to finish.... Our waiter was wonderful and the busier was always clearing AND cleaning our table from course to course. The food waswonderful- delicious appetizers, Lamb Vindaloo was just spicy enough, Chicken Moghul was very tasty, and the Mango Kulfi was agreat way to finish out the meal. We are so glad we found this gem just slightly off the beaten path. Highly recommend a visit! Read more
Great neighborhood gem. Been there twice, the food is great, the service is attentive. They suggested the momo dumplings, ... they were a fantastic Indian take on traditionally Chinese fare. The vindaloo wasn't as spicy as was expecting, but mytolerance is pretty high. Not crowded either time we went, casual enough for an easy night out, but fancy enough to make itseem special. My complaint is that it's tucked away and hard to get to from either Virgina it the District, but not really acomplaint, because I can keep this place to myself. Read more
