Tables had mini candles, white tablecloths and cloth napkins. I wish there were images of the food on the menu to get an idea of what some of the dishes were like. Everything like the curries, all came out in square shaped bowls, rather than on individual plates. I ordered Tandori Chicken which came with white basmati rice, and a side of plain naan bread. The chicken was delish, however it was dry and needed something wet like a curry to bring it all together. Next time, I would order another dish with the tandori chicken to bring it all together. The basmati rice was made perfectly, fluffy with toasted cumin seeds and a hint of oil. The plain naan bread was baked to perfection, toasty on the outside, chewy and moist on the inside with a hint of oil drizzled on top. Yumm! I had a Tamarind Margarita, which was unique and had a good kick to it. Everyone in my group enjoyed their food. Some folks shared a few items so they had more options. I would do that the next time. Highly recommend.

However, I have to say it was good stuff. The momos I ordered had a bit of paneer in addition to vegetables and a sauce that wasn't quite enough for all (me being me, I had sauce at home). The star of the show, however, was a smoky, hearty dal that was great with or without the bread I added. I got two small meals out of it, so a reasonable value after my cost savings. I'm not sure that the Van Ness stop will ever draw big crowds, but I'd go back to this restaurant again anyway.

It is on the smaller side, and one group was turned away for not having a reservation. I got a dumpling appetizer which delivered a mouthwatering array of vegetables, and a reasonably interesting fruity drink. The thing I came for, however, was a chole bhature. This fried bread and chickpea combination came with all the right accompaniments, and the chickpeas were richly flavored. It was a fantastic meal down to the last bite. It would not have been as good to go, and I recommend eating in. Service was a bit slow and they could have used another person working, but it was a clean and pleasant place to eat.

Unfortunately, the last few visits haven't been great, and tonight was the worst it's ever been. I ordered the matar paneer and it was watery and almost completely flavorless, which is very unlike what I've had there before. The rice was even more disappointing -- it tasted old and was hardened into clumps, almost molded into the shape of the container instead of being individual grains. It was difficult to even break apart. The samosas were good, which was the one bright spot, but the garlic naan barely had any garlic on it. Normally their naan is amazing and very flavorful. I'm really disappointed because this used to be my go-to spot for Indian food. I'm hoping this was just a bad night, but after a few recent experiences that were also lacking in freshness and flavor, I may have to start looking for a new place.

We were able to snag a table for Valentine's Day evening on their website and they did NOT overbook - we were seated within 5 mins. of arriving. Service was prompt and attentive without being intrusive. The cocktails were innovative and delicious; we loved the jalapeño passion fruit cocktail (spicy!) and the ginger mojito. We were very hungry but decided on 4 smaller plates, which was exactly the right amount of food. Highly recommend their Crab Kathi Roll appetizer, the Crispy Spinach with Dates, the Chicken Cafreal and the Eggplant Fritters - although the mild spicing and flavor of the eggplant was outshone by the other robustly flavored items; still tasty though. Service was friendly and crisp and the pricing was very economical especially considering the variety and quality of the food and beverage. A 5-Star keeper!!

Maya Cuisine Restaurant & Bar is a good Indian restaurant…read more Service was good. I was asked what I needed and if I wanted a table. Wait staff took my order and brought my drinks over to me quickly. They came around to check to see if I was ready to order and followed up. Very good food selection. Food was flavorful, but some of the meat was slightly tough. My order came out incorrect. They remade the order. Overall good food. Atmosphere is ok. Seems a bit mix of Indian and Thai theme. I'd give Maya Cuisine a 3.5 rating so I'll round up to 4. I recommend Maya Cuisine restaurant and I'll be a repeat customer.

Indian food is not my favorite cuisine but it is mostly gluten-free which so I do keep it on my rotation. This location is never full so I was not sure about it. To be safe I ordered the butter chicken. It was good, but nothing special stood out. I did eat it all and the portion seemed adequate. They seemed a little understaffed even for not having many customers. The ambiance was fine but again nothing special stood out. There are way better Indian restaurants in DC starting with Rasika. Heritage is not bad, but there is nothing that popped for me. If you are in the area and the other restaurants are packed, you can give this a try, but if you are looking for something special, I suggest to keep looking.

I had a mango lassi on the side to balance the spice, which I recommend. And to end the night, we had to order the gulab jamun. Amazing!!! Ugh the warmth and sweetness is exactly what we needed. Amazing meal, can't wait to come back and try more from the menu!

I got the chili chicken, which I expected to be spicy and it was. I also tried the okra which was cooked very creatively for a dish that is hard to make good. I ended with the lamb shank, the quality of the meat and how it was cooked was very good, but the sauce it came it was so spicy it made it hard to enjoy the dish. I love Indian food and Indian food fusion, and I'm used to the spice that comes with it, but between the chili chicken and lamb shank it felt like they were spicy for no reason, the spice didn't seem to enhance the flavor experience. I will say the drinks were solid, including the mango lassie. Overall, good spot and I recommend it - it just didn't quite meet expectations but the expectations were very high.
