    Chef's Special Biryani
    Maria K.

    We came on a Friday evening with a large group (8 people) and made a reservation in advance. The service was really great, especially considering our large party. Highly recommend the buffalo and pork jhol momos, they were my favorite dishes of the night. The biryani was also very aromatic and flavorful, and the gobi manchurian was delicious. The goat curry in the dhindo thali was a bit too spicy for me, but still good flavor-wise. I also recommend the chaang, a type of fermented rice drink, which is slightly sweet and goes well with the spicy foods.

    Came here with a large group of friends and the restaurant was able to accommodate all of us! We shared the buffalo and pork jhol momos, combo biryani, and the gobi manchurian. Everything was delicious, especially the biryani imo! One friend has a severe dairy allergy and they were able to check the ingredients in everything for us. We also shared a pitcher of the chaang which I wasn't sure I was going to like since I'm not a sake girl but I actually loved it. Was very easy to sip due to it's mild and slightly sweet flavor. And I got the dhindo thali with goat curry which was delicious! Never had dhindo before but it reminded me of fufu. I love trying new things. Goat curry was delicious but the goat pieces weren't as tender as I would have liked. The pickles and veggies were also delicious. The tandoori naan is ok, super thin and not very flavorful - reminds me more of a roti. Prices are a bit high ($27 for my thali) but it's doable if you share a bunch of dishes with friends. Overall I'd come back here.

    I'm not a huge fan of Indian food, but I was with a group that likes it so I was up for giving it a try. We ordered a wide range of dishes to share. They were generally pretty good, but in my limited experience with Indian food, I have definitely had better. The ambiance of the restaurant was a little underwhelming, but it was fine. Overall , not a bad experience, but it just isn;t my favorite kind of food.

    Omg!!! This place is so good. I went during Adams Morgan day and I was blown away. It was just me in there so service was top tier. The food was 20/10. The samosas were so filling!! I loved the vibe. It reminded me of the restaurants back home. Will return!!

    Came here with some friends and it was sooo delicious!! This is hands down the best Nepali restaurant in DC!!! We got the thali with khassi and the plant based momos and everything was so incredible!!! The owner is so nice and made us feel welcomed and like family!! We will definitely be back!!

    Delicious Nepalese restaurant in Adams Morgan! I love Nepalese food and try to eat it often; this restaurant lived up to the hype for sure. The momos were a great start with a very hearty filling--they did not taste like a bland veggie dumpling in any way! For entrees, we ordered the thali and the butter chicken. Both came with perfectly cooked chicken in gorgeous sauces. Our service was extremely prompt, which was great since we were in a hurry. And the interior was beautiful and pretty empty too. Definitely come check this restaurant out!

    Decent place, food was good , I think the strength here was to get less of the "indian stuff" and more of the other stuff. The chicken tika was very tomato based ,which some love but the classic indian flavor wasn't there for me! Also, not a lot of chicken. The chicken biryani was an original blend , not the best but interesting enough to say its good, Cozy little spot not a bad place to grab a bite . Service was good .

    I'm not a huge fan. The location is really nice, but the food is very average. The Momos tasted like trader Joe's' dumplings. The waitstaff was unable to answer any questions, such as what does fried vs. pan friend mean when it comes to Momos? Are fried Momos deep fried? The staff was anxious to take our order and almost pushing us too. We felt that was very unnecessary.

    I left feeling full and happy. This place is the real deal. I came here with 2 of my friends and they were both impressed by the food. We ordered 1 appetizer (gobi manchurian) and 2 entrees (paneer masala and veggie jhul momos) which was plenty for us. The vibe of this restaurant is really nice, and service was quick. I usually drink water quickly, and they refilled it every time. There was hand sanitizer on each table, which every restaurant should do. This is how we rated each dish: 4.5 - gobi manchurian. This was crispy and a little spicy, but delicious. Highly recommend! 3 - paneer masala. This was a bit more plain but a classic. I think this was more of a miss because it's a bit sweeter than we would have preferred. They could've added more vegetables in it, it was just plain paneer. If you want another vegetarian entree with a bit more spice and flavor, I would recommend the eggplant dish instead. 4.5 - jhul momos. I'm not vegetarian but I actually prefer the veg momos over the chicken. I believe the jhul momos had cabbage in it, and my friend and I usually don't like cabbage but this was delicious. 4.5 - garlic naan. Bread could've been softer but I liked the garlic coating. It was crispy, just not as fluffy as it could've been. 3.5 - mango lassi. In my opinion, lassi could've been sweeter. Overall, 5/5 restaurant. Second time coming, and hopefully won't be the last.

    This was my first foray into Nepalese food. Nepalese is similar to Indian cuisine, which makes sense as the countries share a border. We tried the chicken momo dumplings and the Nepalese style curry. The chicken momo was good, though in my mind I would have wanted those more as an appetizer than a main dish. The curry consisted of a choice of protein and then onions in a tomato-based sauce cooked with roasted cumin, coriander, cilantro, and green onion. Since I selected chicken the dish was $19. I would have liked there to be more ingredients than meat and sauce in the curry, but that's not a restaurant-specific opinion. The curry was made-to-order, and the chicken was well cooked. The space is in a fun area and decorated with interesting art and murals. If you're seated in the alcove, you can sit on decorated pillows.

Tucked into the heart of Dupont Circle with its unmistakable bright blue awning, the restaurant is intimate, moody, and always buzzing. Inside, you'll find dim lighting, a handful of cozy wooden bar booths, seats along the bar, and a few outdoor tables. It's not a huge space, which only adds to its charm and makes every reservation feel like a win. The atmosphere is perfect for sharing dishes and lingering over dinner with friends. The food was incredible...I genuinely loved every single bite. Just be prepared: the Sichuan spice is no joke! If you aren't expecting it, it'll definitely sneak up on you (in the best way). My must-orders? The chili wontons, Dan Dan noodles, and beef noodles. Every dish was packed with bold flavor and left me wanting to come back for more. If you've been trying to score a reservation, keep at it. Astoria is one of those places that's absolutely deserving of its reputation, and I'll be thinking about those noodles until my next visit.

Inside had small tables and a kinda casual cocktail bar vibe Beef Noodles - the highlight and actually very good! The noodles are long and handmade and chewy. They hold onto the sauce very well! The sauce has a slight kick and is very savory. The beef is soft and also flavorful! I feel the price for the portion is kinda expensive though 8/10 Chili wontons - skin is silky and soft, sauce is savory with a small kick as well! Even though the sauces look similar to beef noodle they taste very different. The fillings had good flavor and overall were good but were a bit tougher and dryer than I would prefer. 6/10 Crab fried rice - crab is slightly overcooked but naturally sweet. It has a light curry taste throughout and was pretty good but didn't really stand out 5.5/10 Mapo tofu - slight kick and nice savory taste in the sauce! However I think they cut the tofu pieces way too large or the tofu they chose had way too much tofu flavor that overpowers the sauce. I'd prefer a very light silky tofu but this was a soft tofu. 6/10 Vpod - at first it just tasted like orange juice but then the other flavors peek through on the after taste and when I mixed it more. Even though it was good, it still felt very basic 5/10 Philadelphia Scotsman - it's pretty ginger forward. Technically the level of ginger spice is fine but strong but then the rest of the drink got completely overpowered and so this just wasn't that great 2.5/10

Plus, the ambience is a mix of relaxation and class. I ordered the Lychee Martini to start, followed by the Tom Yum Fried Rice with Shrimp. It was cold, fresh, and so flavorful.

This is not the type of place where you would want to enjoy drinks and food over a period of time. However, if you are super hungry, your food will definitely get to you quickly. Restaurant was crowded, but not super loud. Overall, I would come back for the food, I just wish that I could have more time to enjoy my restaurant experience.

Maybe they were all reserved? Not sure. We were greeted by the staffs and shown to the table. Smooth and fast. All the menu looked tempting so had hard time choosing which one to go with. Went with meatloaf and miso salmon. Meatloaf was really good! Flavorful with tender/juicy meat combined with onions, bell peppers etc. Miso salmon was also good! Okra and broccoli were adding more taste to the dish itself. No complaints at all! The prices were on the higher side though. Menu says each are $28. However, there was mandatory service charge of 20% and tax was calculated after the service charge, which end up being approximately $40 per menu item we got - miso salmon and meatloaf. Wish the menu price would just include service charges so prices would not be misleading with all the charges after. Not sure if this is because of World Cup 2026, but too bad they had to hit their customers with extra fees after enjoying the meals which could have ended happily rather than leaving a bad taste in the mouth.

I had the pumpkin spice spritz and an order of the fried chicken bites - both were really really good. I'd order both items again.
