Reviews for Chopathi India Kitchen in Ashburn, VA

The location was good. Sometimes the Bondas taste so good and twice they tasted very raw and oily. The plates are not properly... washed as anyone can find the stains are visible. The toilets are poorly maintained, as they are not at all cleaned not evenonce of my visit in more than 20 times until the review is posted. Few breakfasts and chicken starters taste good. If you askextra sambar or anything, they charge for it without hesitation. And there are times where they not even serve ginger chutneyfor the ordered plate out of many plates. Sometimes some staff are really friendly and sometimes they seems like they reallydon?t care you. The tea here is 2.5 out of 5, I don?t recommend. Punugulu are Crispy and too much oily. I really love bondashere. Chicken biryani was normal. The pot biryani will serve 2 people and the taste was ok, I can?t complain on it. The parkingspace is congested from time to time. They do take orders for occasions, which is pretty good. Read more

This is NOT a place for a good family dine in experience!! I?ve always had bad experiences with wait times for take out in this... restaurant, I should say, unorganized and irresponsible take out place! I?ve to share the worst experience I had. We checkedin at 9:14pm hungry and ordered food and paid the bill and decided for a good family dine in experience. We had to wait a lotfor the food to come as the staff were busy packing food for other take out orders! We got one item of one of us after 25minsand rest of family has to wait till 10pm to get their food including the kids!! This is a bitter experience for us and coldstaff has no responsibility to address the issue and we?re hopeless. Very disappointed with the service! Would definitely notrecommend this to anyone for dine in and good luck for pickup wait times! You?ll be exhausted and definitely loose interest infood by the time food arrives! Read more

Horrible couple of experiences with this place. They used to be good at some point. Now, I wish I could give them negative... stars. No wonder anytime you go, there are barely any patrons in the restaurant. They made us wait 45 minutes for a small orderwhich they messed up. We repeated our order twice to TWO people and they still got it wrong. We were told our order would beready in 15-20 minutes, but it took 45 minutes. At the end of which they didn't have the decency to utter a simple sorry. This,when there was just one other family eating in the restaurant. Always check your order before you leave the place. More likelythan not, they will get it wrong. After waiting for 45 minutes (and giving the order to 2 people) when we opened the packet athome, we realized they had taken down the wrong order. Mistakes happen, but not again and again. This place is deplorable andthe people handling the orders have a really bad attitude. Beware! There are better Indian restaurants in the area. It doesn'tgive me the option to put zero stars. I was forced to pick one. This place deserves lower than zero stars. Read more

Listen, the food was delicious for me.... but EXTREMELY spicy. Why would you put so much spice for a samosa chaat? Its not... friendly for those whose spice tolerance is even at a medium or lower. However my mom noticed how oily it was and that the foodwas not fresh. Not coming back. Lost my 13 dollars. Read more

I had always been a fan of their taste and quality and am a regular there. And when I saw their specials for today, I ordered... the Shrimp special. The quantity is ridiculously less. It is literally the box they use for chutneys for 2 orders ofdosa/tiffins/etc. I was charged $20 for that. When asked why the serving size is less, we were told that shrimp is expensive. Iunderstand that prices of food are increasing, but please do not take customers for granted. The quantity of food I got todayfeels like some kind of joke. Read more

Not your typical Indian in the area, so be prepared for a different experience. All my normal go to dishes were not available. ... So I struggled thru the menu but in the end flavors and spices are very good. Must try street food, Punugulu (like an Indianhush puppy) very tasty Dosa is like an Indian pancake/crepe but you can stuff with a protein. Needs to be eaten quickly andnot saved for later (completely different flavors if refrigerated) Samosa is fresh light crispy outside but soft dough makes itreally fresh to eat. I ordered goat curry but got chicken curry, but it was very tasty with different flavors than normalcurry. Be careful if you have nut allergies they have peanut sauces and like a pistachio nut in a dessert. Sry for lack ofpictures and better food choices bamma friend was late so I didn't have the inside Indian food translator. Will go back to trymore. Read more

Must try their Mysore Bonda. Be careful when ordering Chicken Tadka though. Spicy is really spicy with a lot of ginger, garlic... and red peppers. Read more

Well done goat biryani with very good mirchi ga salan and raita. Their butter milk tastes good, home style. Again, homestyle... sweets sold like rava laddu and bondi laddu. Seating is good, both indoor and outdoor. Staff was friendly in taking the order,gave good recommendations on the menu. My recommendations - 1. Bathrooms were okay but needs a regular check and cleaned atintervals 2. Good to change the silverware and serving style (not plastic plates), such hot and good biryanis cannot be eaten inthe plastic plates Read more
