The avocado apple chaat was okay, but it contained too much avocado and needed more acidity to balance the richness. The shrimp masala and lamb Chettinadu were both flavorful and paired well with the basmati rice and garlic naan. The cocktails ($11) were also enjoyable, and they have a full bar with a good selection of drinks. Service was excellent, and the restaurant was clean with a nice, inviting ambience. Street parking is available nearby. Aside from the chaat needing a little adjustment, everything else was excellent, and I would definitely return.

I am genuinely disappointed by my experience at Mount Everest Restaurant and Bar in the Inner…read moreHarbor. My wife, our 6-year-old daughter, and I stopped in for an early dinner after spending several hours at the National Aquarium. The restaurant's proximity (under five minutes away) and strong online rating (~4.6) made it an easy choice. We were also influenced by a promotion advertised on their website: buy two entrées, get the third (chicken or vegetarian) free. When we tried to order under that promotion, our server told us they had not run it in "many years." If that is the case, it should not be listed online. It factored into our decision to dine there, and advertising an outdated special is misleading. That said, my negative review is not based primarily--or even secondarily--on the inaccurate promotion. Restaurants ultimately succeed or fail on taste and execution, and that is where this meal fell well short. We ordered the Lamb Junelly, the Kabob Platter, and two garlic naans. The Lamb Junelly, which I requested at a medium spice level, leaned noticeably sweet. It contained surprisingly little lamb, and while I did not find it overly chewy, my wife did. Overall, it lacked depth and balance. The bigger letdown was the Kabob Platter (chicken tikka, lamb seekh kabob, shrimp, and chicken tandoori). All three of us agreed the chicken tikka was dry and nearly flavorless. That says something, given how hungry we were after skipping lunch. My wife captured it best: "I was so looking forward to the Kabob Platter, and I was so disappointed by it. I left the restaurant almost sad." I felt much the same. Service was acceptable but inattentive. Our server never checked in during the meal. Had he done so, I likely would have asked for lemon slices to brighten the kabobs. When we left--around 6:00 p.m. on a Thursday--we were the only guests in the restaurant, yet there was no acknowledgment from our server or the staff members sitting nearby. That absence of basic hospitality stood out. This is not an inexpensive place (garlic naan costs $7 apiece). At those prices, execution and attentiveness matter. On this visit, both fell short. Among the many restaurants I have visited, this would land in my bottom quartile. I would not return, and I would not recommend it--especially for the à la carte dinner service.

I have not eaten a lot of Indian food and certainly not recently so I asked for recommendations. We got an order of pakodas for the table and shared them, and also in order of samosas. Both were delicious and the pakodas were incredibly unique, and lightly fried. One of the people at our table had the restaurant weeks prefix that included tomato soup and beetroot pattie, an entree, vegetables, rice, naan and dessert all for $45. The rest of us just ordered off the menu and I opted for the chicken curry with rice which was fantastic and also got a side order of the garlic naan. It was super garlicky but very tasty. The restaurant itself is small with maybe a half dozen tables inside and two or three tables outside but it was just enough for us that evening. Our servers were excellent and helped explain aspects of the menu and helped us make decisions on what we wanted to eat. The only reason for one less star is we were finished eating and the checks arrived, we were never offered the opportunity to get dessert which was really weird. We were all planning to at least consider dessert but ended up at another local establishment for dessert. Otherwise it was a great meal and highly recommend you visiting this delicious Indian restaurant.

This is my second time eat at The Verandah Kitchen, and this restaurant continues to impress me…read more This is definitely one of my favorite spots in the Baltimore area. I had the Kolhapuri Goat Curry & Gatlic this Naan bread, both of which are fantastic choices. The broth of the curry was nice and rich with a good level of spice, much of what a good curry should have. The goat itself had a bit more bones than I'd prefer, but overall even those were extremely tender & flavorful. Additionally I had used the Naan bread to help finish up the broth, which ended with a very satisfying comfort meal. The service & ambiance itself was also a pleasure. I personally prefer small establishments to avoid unnecessary noise while dining. Mix that with the incentive staff and you'll definitely enjoy yourself on your vist here, much like I did.

The décor and ambience of this restaurant is so serene and welcoming. As always, they start you off with a basket of Papadum (light crispy Indian wafers) and two dipping sauces. These are really delicious and a wonderful introduction to Indian food. Our foods started with an order of split Vegetable and Chicken Momo dumplings that were marinated in Nepali spices stuffed in flour wrapped and steamed and served with a special chutney. For our friends' main course, they split a Chicken Tikka Masala, which was boneless white meat chicken cooked with onions, tomatoes, and bell peppers. They also ordered Naan - the traditional unleavened white bread. My husband had his favorite, the Tandoori Shrimp. It was a very generous portion of jumbo shrimp marinated in an herb mixture and delicately broiled in our tandoori clay oven served with mixed vegetables. This came out sizzling. This came with a side of spinach that was more like a creamed spinach. It was the best we have ever tasted! It was creamy with the best seasoning. I decided to try something new and ordered the Chicken Pista Korma which was White meat chicken simmered in a mild pistachio sauce. I would have like smaller pieces of chicken, but the sauce was delicate and delicious. All of our entrees came with basmati rice. The portions are so generous we all had something to take home for another meal. Our servers were very attentive and friendly. We thoroughly enjoyed another great meal at Indian Ocean.

There are bar stools closer to the bar, but alas I cannot use those. We knew we had hit the jackpot as soon as we took the lid off the container. The smell was perfection.
