Reviews for Bollywood Bistro Great Falls in Great Falls, VA

Went for celebratory dinner... food is excellent and service is attentive but not over intrusive... wonderful meal

My favourite Indian in the area. This time, I said for the price difference, may as well come for dinner. As I have said, I... drive forty minutes each way because I have loved it so much. But after finding and loving this place for over four years, itends tonight. The food is always very good. I consider it the best Indian in the DMV area. But first lunch went up in price,and tonight I decided to treat myself to dinner, as for the price difference it seemed best to enjoy the larger dinner portionsfor a little more money. The waitress was pushy and kept trying to rush our dinner and asking no sooner than the samosasarrived if we were ready to order the main dish. I told her we would order after we finished appetizers and we were out to enjoyour company, not go to a McDonalds and order, eat, and run. Then the food came. Portions have shrunk. Lamb Vindaloo had at mostsix LITTLE pieces of lamb and ONE small little round piece of potato for a DINNER PORTION??? WHAT??? The rice seemed a verysmall portion too. Barely halfway way up the serving dish. Half way through our meal a lovely and sweet Indian couple came in.The ordered alcohol which we did not as we don't drink alcohol. We exchanged pleasantries with them as they seemed veryadorable. When their meal came out - they were two just like us, but no meat entree as they might be vegetarian like mycompanion tonight - I saw they ordered a Briyani, and another bowl with Basmati rice. However I couldn't help but notice howtheir rice was heaping and a very generous portion. Twice what we got for two. Having order Dal Makhani and Lamb Vindaloo. Ihave drive for forty minutes each way as it was always a place I felt treated like a king. Fair prices and a lot of food. Buttonight the love affair is over. I could always count on ordering an entree at dinner and having enough to take home for thenext day. Even when sharing!!! Tonight's Lamb Vindaloo, was delicious yes, but very meager portion. Thank God m Read more

5/5 for service. 5/5 for cleanliness. 4.5/5 for food. Amazing taste, would recommend it to anyone looking for good Indian food... at reasonable price. Staff was really polite and attentive. Just felt that biryani was little bit tangy but it could be mypersonal bias. Would definitely visit again and recommend it to friends and family. Read more

Excellent menu. Crispy spinach starter was delicious. . . As were all our entrees, from crab to chicken to lamb. The staff was... attentive and paid close attention to my food allergy. And the mojito was exceptionally fresh! Read more

We ordered lamb biryani, dal makhni and alo chat papri. Food was good, portion was reasonable and ambiance was clean and quiet.... They are doing good job in maintaining social distancing between people dining in. Read more

Our first visit to Bollywood Bistro which is the sister to the restaurant in Fairfax. Located off Route 7 and close to Reston,... Sterling & Great Falls in a small shopping center. 5 adults and 2 children for buffet lunch. They joined a table for us and thebuffet was pretty standard with veg and non-veg items. A little spicy with some items. Nice table service bringing naans whichwere fresh. For dessert halwa and fruit but we did ask for some kheer and since our family knew the owner, we were served somereally nice warm kheer. Very reasonable. Looked like quite a few people but the owner mentioned scare of the virus has keptbusiness down which is a shame as restaurants like this deserve to be visited and kept going. Read more
