I ordered the Spinach Chat described as "crispy fried battered spinach mixed with onions, yogurt, chutneys, and topped with pomegranate". I was expecting thick fritter-type things but these were light, airy leaves of spinach with an AMAZING combination of sauces on top. I couldn't stop eating it! I also ordered the lamb taas appetizer - small chunks of tender lamb with spices that packed a bit of a punch. I was so full from the chat that I brought most of the lamb home (with veggies from my friend's dish). My companion had chicken dumplings (momo) that were super yummy and the trio tandoori grill (she said the meats were very good - again lamb a bit spicy - and I got the lovely veggies to go). We shared desserts - kheer (rice pudding) that I felt was the weak point of the meal and pistachio kulfi (ice cream). The service was attentive and the foot really, really good. We will definitely return!

The staff is super friendly and ready to provide recommendations for those curious about certainly entree and flavors. The food is freshly prepared and packed with flavor.

The chicken was tender and curry full of flavor. The trio grill was freshly prepared and complimented with a few sauces. The noodles and momo are a great option for a well balanced meal. The great thing is that you can tailor the spice level for any entree so there really is something for everyone. I'd recommend all the dishes we tried and can't wait to come back and try the other menu items

Love the restaurant, they usually have native music playing and the space is cozy.

I often find myself traveling through Virginia, so I can't be the only one wondering if this…read morecrossroads town is the right place to stop, or whether I should be dining in Charlottesville or powering on through to the DC suburbs. In this case, I found the stop to be a good decision. While the place is branded as Indian, it has a bit of Nepali flair in the decor and the menu, including the pickled peanuts I got as an appetizer. I wasn't hugely impressed with the other appetizers I ordered, with a spring roll that you'd have trouble convincing me was freshly made, but my channa masala was much better and delivered a lively mix of spices that tingled the tongue. Rounding out with a bread and some chai, I got two meals (and some extra peanuts to snack on) out of it. I've been to pretty much every Indian restaurant between the outer DC suburbs and the Southwest end of Virginia, and this wasn't the best of them, but it was a respectable meal and the right decision for me on the night.

Food was good, but the experience was confusing. The naan…read morewas huge -- much larger than we expected and definitely a highlight. We ordered the chicken korma and butter chicken at different spice levels. Just a heads-up: the spice scale leans very American-mild, so if you actually want heat, order a 3 or higher. That said, service and communication were off. When we walked in, none of the tables were cleaned, and we were told the kitchen was closing in 15 minutes, even though we arrived about 2 hours before their posted closing time. It felt rushed and unexpected. Because it's family-owned, it's possible they had something going on (Friday night, maybe closing early), but there were no signs posted and no notice online, so we had no way of knowing beforehand. Would come back for the food, but clearer communication and a more welcoming front-of-house experience would make a big difference.

If you have no idea how to do it, don't offer it. My chicken biryani had some tamarind in it. What is tamarind doing in a biryani? The quantity was not good.

We just couldn't finish the rice. Disappointed.

Spice levels are not watered down ;), medium is eye-watering spicy, which is a good thing. Khatte Cholle--5/5-authentic north indian spiced and sour Bhature--5/5-many Indian restaurants in the area pass off a version of poori as bhature. Not Bansari. Delhi Dhaaba Dal--6/5-again authentic black lentils served in roadside eateries in North India. Think of it as dal makhani minus over-the-top cream. Flavor comes from onion, tomatoes, and spices, and of course the simmering. Baingain Bharta--5/5-the baingan bharta is what brought us back to Bansari. Just the right amount of smoky and spicy. Lamb Rogan Josh--5/5 Onion Kulcha--5/5 Pani Puri/Gol Gappa--5/5- mint cilantro water is flavorful and spicy without the watered-down taste. The sweet and sour chickpea and potato filling is perfect too. Desserts Rasmalai--5/5-no too sweet Gulab jamun--5/5 Kulfi Falooda--4/5-the ice cream and syrups hit the spot, very much like you'll get in the capital city of Indian. It is the glass or rice noodles mess it up. If indian falooda noodles aren't available, basil seeds may be a better substitute. Malai Kulfi--5/5 Rose Ice cream--4/5

A wonderful place for a special event with excellent food and service…read more We recently held our daughter's baby shower at Taste of Old Country in Manassas and could not have been happier with how everything turned out. The restaurant is very nice inside and also sells a variety of olive oils and other specialty items. We actually used some of their olive oil packages as prizes for the games during the shower, which worked out perfectly. Elias and Zachery were wonderful from before the event began while we were setting up, throughout the entire shower, and even afterward while we were cleaning up. They obviously knew how to handle an event like this and seemed to know exactly what needed to happen as our guests began arriving and the shower progressed. We had two long tables set up for our group, one seating 14 and the other 12 people. I thought the tables and place settings looked wonderful, and they allowed us to add our own table runners, pumpkin-themed centerpieces, and decorations along both sides of the room. When it was time to eat, the food was set out buffet-style along the bar near the back. The menu was Mediterranean based and included spanakopita, cheese pies (not pizzas), artisan sandwiches, meatballs, stuffed grape leaves, and other items. Everything was absolutely delicious, and there was certainly no shortage of food. We had enough for everyone at the shower, enough left for dinner for eight of us afterward, and still had leftovers for two families to take home. The staff did a great job throughout the event without making us feel rushed, and the entire experience was comfortable and relaxing. Considering the beautiful venue, excellent service, quality and amount of food, and how smoothly everything went, I thought the price was an excellent value. Overall, Taste of Old Country helped make our daughter's baby shower a wonderful event and one we will remember for a long time. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a place in the Manassas area for a shower, family gathering, or other special event. Definitely a five-star experience. Enjoy!

It was moderately busy and there seemed to be a single waiter which was not a problem as the space is small. He was very polite and attentive explaining the menu and what items may take longer in case we were in a hurry. The food was fantastic. We didn't have anything that we wouldn't order again or didn't enjoy. The Margarita pizza was the highlight for us but the mini spanakopitas were a close second. Portions are a healthy size too.
