Salt and Pepper Grill - Indian Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Unfortunately they were out of two items I was hoping for, but that may be because I came on a random weekday and I'm sure those dishes were intensive. The food was very tasty, but I felt the chicken biryani was a bit "wet". I really enjoyed the lamb korma though - it was so tender and flavorful! There are only about 6-8 tables in the restaurant but as I waited for my food they seem to do consistent carry out business. While I was waiting for my take out order, a food deliverer came in to pick up an order and familiarly addressed the woman who took my order as "auntie" after which they exchanged brief greetings. I thought it was a nice interaction that speaks volumes about this family run business! read more

Salt and Pepper Grill - Chicken biryani, Shani paneer, 54. Chicken Vindaloo, 84. Mango Lassi (16 Oz) - Indian Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

SOLID Indian food for the most part with a few minor critiques. This is more of a cafe style restaurant, where you go up to the counter to order your food and they'll give you your food in a tray if you're eating there. Absolutely no frills and there wasn't much heating indoors, but the hearty and delicious food warmed our souls quite quickly. One of my friends wanted to give this place a try due to his recent Indian cuisine cravings, and I'm so glad our group came here for a family-style dinner this past Monday. GARLIC NAAN - 3.95 The four of us got two orders of the garlic naan. Each order had one big piece of naan (that fit on a 10" paper plate). It was hot and fresh. My only critique is that it could be a lot more garlicky. Besides the bit of herbs and slight garlic taste, I'm not sure if I'd pay an extra $2 for the garlic naan next time. Either way, it was a great carb switch if I wasn't feeling the basmati rice at the moment. GOAT BIRYANI - 16.95 With six different biryani options, the one we ended up choosing was goat because it's not a common meat choice at most restaurants. The goat biryani was indeed... the GOAT. There were so many pieces of goat in the biryani, which was seasoned well with an ample amount of spices - definitely a flavor bomb every bite. The yogurt sauce was tasty. My only quip was that the rice was a bit too wet and I prefer a drier biryani rice. Overall, we'd recommend because the goat was on point. LAMB KORMA - 16.95 This curry blew me away. Korma is usually my top choice, and this one was phenomenal. The korma was so creamy and nutty, it was so perfect. On top of that, the lamb was plenty and it was so tender. The usual "gamey" flavors of lamb aren't there, and it just, wow. I can confidently say we were the most impressed by the lamb korma here. Even when we finished it, I had to really stop myself from licking the plate clean. This entree was the clear winner for me and I'd highly recommend the korma to anyone who loves a delicious creamy sauce. CHICKEN TIKKA MASALA - 15.95 I'm more used to a savory chicken tikka masala, but this one leaned on the sweeter side - and I liked it! It was cooked nicely with plenty of bell peppers and onion, giving it an extra kick. While the flavors were great, I just wasn't as impressed with this entree compared to the other ones we got. If you want something on the "safe" or mainstream side (and you like a sweeter curry), I'd recommend this! PALAK PANEER - 14.95 Another one of my favorites, and it was done decently well here. I liked that the paneer was seared to give it a bit more flavor. I enjoyed the palak paneer here, but I can't say it was anything extraordinary. Definitely above average, but not the best I've had. If you love spinach and paneer, then this one is for you! The portion sizes here are pretty good for DC pricing. They give you lots of rice here. You will not leave this restaurant hungry. Great Indian food, happy to come back if I'm ever craving their LAMB KORMA. Otherwise, I'm down to try another Indian restaurant before circling back. read more

I found this small Indian restaurant while visiting Howard University on a Saturday afternoon to referee rugby match. They have a very large menu with all of the Indian basics. Even though I was alone, the food smelled so good that I decided to order 3 entrees to go. I ordered the Salt and Pepper Special combination, which came with a generous pile of different meats, including some chewy sausage-like things, some spicy lamb, and some excellent tandoori chicken (the meat was accompanied by some chickpeas in a sauce and spinach with cheese cubes in it). I also ordered a lamb vindaloo and a dal makhani (lentils). Both were excellent, but they are not joking when they say that their vindaloo is spicy -- it made me cry on at least two of the occasions I ate some of it (still have leftovers sitting in the refrigerator for tonight). The rice and the naan were also excellent. Total bill was just over $60. read more

the mango lassi and samosas were good, but i would not recommend the butter chicken and that's the main reason i ordered for. it does not taste or look like butter chicken, ive eaten from many indian restaurants and its not the same taste or color. i hate to leave a bad review on a small business but i dont want another broke college student to spend their money on food they won't end up finishing read more

Salt and Pepper Grill - 51. Butter Chicken - Indian Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Walking distance to Howard University. Small, few booths. Looks like they do more takeout orders than anything. We opted to eat in. Ordered at register, got paper plates and plastic cutlery; not a big deal to us but it's not a full service restaurant. The woman taking our order was nice though. Ordered 3 shrimp dishes (vindaloo, curry and tikka masala), aloo gobi, veggie sambusa, fish pakora and mango lassi. We ate most but still had some leftovers. Everything was tasty. The curry and tikka masala were my favorite. Very flavorful. The vindaloo was spicy but not so hot we couldn't enjoy. We could have probably asked for more spice. read more

First time ever going to this restaurant.... Upon walking in the owner continued to sit and ignore my presence until I asked "Is anyone working?" His response and the additional few minutes I waited should have made me leave but I tried to give them the benefit. Despite the fact I was the only customer in the restaurant. The woman who eventually appeared was of no help when I asked about the menu items. I ordered the lamb curry. When I got home I saw I was given a bowl full of lamb bones covered in sauce! I've ordered lamb curry from multiple places and I've never received a bigger pile of crap than the $14 meal I was served tonight. Ignore all the other reviews because currently this business is short changing/deceiving it's clients... read more

I feel like my standards for Indian food are high, but salt pepper definitely delivered! I tried the lamb vindaloo and have to say that the lamb was very good, the naan on point and sauce nicely made to order. I'm a huge fan of spicy and they really turned up the heat on my "extra spicy" request. I like the quality food in a shack kind of vibe, would definitely recommend! read more

Salt and Pepper Grill - Indian Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

All of the food I've tried was extremely good. The turn-around time for catered food is very fast however the tray covers aren't very secure so spills are commonplace and challenging to clean up if it happens in your vehicle. read more

Admittedly, I was a little leery of this sketch-looking Indian takeout place, but I kind of think Yelp has this one right. That is some pretty respectable food. The takeout I ended up with was quite flavorful and filling. It wasn't ready immediately (which in a way gives me more confidence that some effort went into preparing it), but it was what I wanted. For one thing, I checked the box to make my chickpeas very spicy, a topic which I am invested in but also rather jaded about. But someone definitely put something hot in there; this was the sinus-clearing type, not the mild tingle just to let you know they tried. I was expecting mushy overcooked chickpeas, but if anything, they were a shade tough, though not problematically so. They've also developed the nice solution of rendering their bhatura (normally one huge fried bread) as several little bhaturas, and in general did a competent job with secure takeout containers (not everyone does). Their chili bhaji comes with stems still on and seeds still in, but I got some pretty tasty ones. Altogether, I ended up with several meals worth of heathy stuff plus fried stuff (okay, mostly fried stuff), which is pretty much what I would hope for from Indian takeout. It certainly isn't the best in the city, but I'd find it worthwhile to return (or perhaps try one of their two other locations). read more

We ordered FREE delivery of two main dishes with rice, some bread and an appetizer. So much food at a very reasonable price. We loved everything except for the Chicken Korma. It was just too sweet for us, if you enjoy sweeter sauces you may like it. Loved the garlic naan, onion kulcha, mango lassi, aloo chhole, and paneer pakora! We will definitely order again! Thank you! read more

This place is the best Indian food i've ever had! The chicken Vindaloo was actually spicy and had so much flavor - and it had so much juicy chunk chicken! Would 100% recommend this place. read more

This place is pretty impressive considering the location is far from the many Indian and Pakistani eateries in the outlying DC suburbs. With that said, it is fast food Indian style with styrofoam plates and pre-made choices. The prices reflect the fast nature and preparation, and the decor is of a similar nature. If you are craving Indian food, this is a good choice if you want it fast. There was a steady stream of all sorts of people, so that means the food is going to be pretty fresh to keep up with demand- and it was fresh! I do not like when Indian food tastes in fresh, canned, frozen and/or as though it's been sitting around too long. However, the food proportions are not my favorite. They give twice as much rice as entree, so then there is leftover rice. The food may cater to clientele, so maybe most like the saltiness of the food? I was not impressed with the potato flavoring, but the cauliflower in the aloo gobi masala was fresh and well flavored in the sauce with tomatoes, onions and spices that included a few thin julienned fresh ginger pieces and sprinklings of fresh cilantro. It was made vegan by request, which was nice. The potatoes had a flavor belying their other cooking first before added to that dish. I might ask to have no potatoes, but I am sure the response would be confusion. The vegetable samosa was a great tasting peas and potatoes combination at a fair price- this place is definitely great for price. I liked there were more peas than potatoes and the fried crisp dough was great. Freshly fried, so that was awesome. The sauces were very nice- a spicy cilantro and mint (? a bit?) green sauce was great, and the tamarind sauce was good. I used both up on my potatoes that were lacking flavor in the entree. If in the area, your craving for Indian and Pakistani fast food will be satisfied. They will adjust your order to be vegan. Good choice because price is low compared to most, and it has fast cooking of fresh food. read more

Super tasty and fast! Dined in with a friend on a Monday night. Was happy to find they were open and pretty empty when we arrived at 6:45. There were two other sets of diners when we left but most people show up for take out. Their other location on 14th is closed on Mondays - much like many restaurants! We got samosa chat to share, they kind enough to put the yogurt in the side. This dish was a little soupy and would have done better in a real plate or bowl instead of a paper plate. That was really my only complaint of the whole meal. The plates. The mains came in metal bowls but everything else used paper plates which got a bit soggy by the end of the meal. The lamb saag was great- nice but pieces a few pieces were very fatty... The masala was not my favorite comparatively but still very good. The garlic naan was nice but I wanted more! Kind staff but a beeping kept going off!! Like a battery was dying in a smoke alarm?? Other than that, I'll be back for more. Whole meal +tip was $60. read more

I've been walking past this spot for years as my barbershop is only a few stores down. Yet when I went in for my cut today, I thought maybe I should try something different. I'm so glad I did. Went in during lunch. Asked the cashier what his favorite lamb dish was--he recommended Lamb Karahi. So I ordered it with the garlic naan. It was amazing. Just the right amount of spice. Tasty veggies. Delicious lamb. I'm somewhat embarrassed to say it was so good that I grabbed dinner there too. I got Lamb Tikka Masala for myself and Goat Curry for my mother...and of course more garlic naan. Mother said that they're doing something funny to this food for it to be this good. (She's crazy. But she may be right this time cause, for it to be a little shop on Georgia Ave, it's really that good. :)) read more

DC isn't known for its Indian food per se - we're much more an Ethiopian sorta town - but Salt n Pepper Grill is doing its best to hold the title down. you walk in and it already smells like Indian spices of the best sort. They have place enogh to sit down and eat, but this place is more of a carry-out style. This place likes to serve their carry-out food hot hot hot! So hot in fact, that it can burn. So take your time with this one. Once the food won't scald your fingers or tonuge, it's truly tasty. They give plenty and I mean plenty of gently seasoned rice which mostly stand on its own the next morning. We had a vegetarian in our company, so I am only reviewing based on the "Vegetarian Specialties" of that evening. Portions are good, and three people with three entrees was plenty, although the price came out to just shy of $50 all things counted. Garlic Naan - Garlic. Naan. Need I say more? Order comes per the slice, so you'll likely need at least one per person. They are large slices of naan and well garlicked. Definitely a must. Daal Masoor - Do yourself a favor and order one of these. I honestly don't know what they put in the sauce but I was licking my fingers (and maybe the plate, I won't say) about how good this was. Its delicate and fragrant without getting lost in the cream of the sauce. I would go back and order another two of these if I had known how much I would like it! Aloo Gobi Masala - As a fan of cauliflower, this dish was just dandy. I think they put in something like jalapenos or other pepper that gave it a pleasant kick, but be careful as its the sort of spice that creeps up on you without you feeling it until your throat is begging you to slow down. But what would Indian food be without spicy? If you like it hot and spicy, I would recommend this. Palak Paneer - Probably the weakest of the three dishes. I found it a little watery, and neither creamy nor spicy enough. Could it have been an off day? Sure. But entirely forgettable as of this weekend's meal. Which, frankly is a shame, because I love spinach and paneer as an Indian dish, so I hope the next time In sum, nothing beats homecooked fare, but this place and its counterpart is the best Indian fare you'll get in the NW quadrant of DC. read more

First time ordering from this place. 1. Butter Chicken was delicious 2. Shrimp biryani only had 4 solitary shrimp in it, and way, way too much rice. I still have most of the rice left over. 3. Chicken biryani had very little chicken in it, and way, way too much rice. I still have most of the rice left over. And with the delivery charge and tip, I'm out $63. My advice is to skip this restaurant. read more

I've never dined in here, but it is a great option for reasonably priced Indian take out. Many great vegetarian options. I'm addicted to their Veggie Samosas. Their Dal is also delicious. read more

Me and my mom were craving Indian food, and came across this place. The lady at the counter was super nice and helpful with what to get. My mom got the lamb tikka masala, and I got the butter chicken. We also got 2 orders of garlic bread, and everything was absolutely AMAZING. We dined in, and all the food was super hot, and flavorful. They also gave us a big bowl of rice, and tons of garlic naan. The naan had a bit of a lemony taste to it, which I felt canceled out the garlic flavor, but overall it was really good. We took it all home, and are definitely eating the left overs tomorrow. This place was so good and will definitely eat here again the next time we are in dc. read more

I have come here at least 8 times and I keep coming back. I would give it a solid 4 stars; it might even be a 4.5, honestly. The food is pretty good. It's your standard Indian fare, like saag paneer, chicken tikka masala, korma, samosas and fresh naan. FOOD: 4 SERVICE: 4 VALUE: 4 AMBIANCE: 4 (for what it is) OVERALL: 4 It's a hole in the wall joint so don't have high expectations of its ambiance. It's got standard chairs and tables that are worn out a little bit here and there. The food, however, is delicious, always tasty, and very reasonably priced! On any given day, you can choose from vegetarian or non-veg entrees. I went for the chicken curry, which he said would be a little spicier than everything else. It was. Just the right amount of heat, flavor, and chicken. The naan was piping hot fresh. What I especially liked about this place is that they have stopped using styrofoam, and upon request, the man kindly put all my entrees into small containers with lids on them and double-wrapped it because I was taking them all in my backpack to bike home and didn't want to risk any spills. I'd say the prices have risen a bit since my first visit 3-4 years ago, as what you would expect since prices in DC overall have gone up. Portions are pretty good. I had enough for the next day's leftovers. Enjoy! read more

Good good reasonable prices and I can walk to it. Good deal . What else to say? I like it!

I felt a little let down by the other Yelp reviews of this place. I was really hoping for spicy, authentic Pakistani fare (I've lived in Pakistan, so have a good idea of what is and isn't authentic). To be fair, this place may be worth 2.5 stars, but I am compensating for the other overly-glowing reviews. In general, the food was a little on the bland side. The prices were ok, but about normal for the level of service (i.e., self-serve on styrofoam plates). MAJOR PLUS: place was very clean (spotless in the dining area and clean restroom) and they do have a high-chair. Service was fine; neither good nor bad. I wish they would have actually offered raita with the food; they had it in their fridge ready to go, but didn't offer until I asked. I went with my folks; we ordered a bunch of dishes; in general, it seemed like the stuff that was ready-made was more bland and less interesting than the dishes that they had to prepare (but be forewarned, the dishes that aren't ready-made, take a long time to come out; anyone eating ready-made food at your table will be finished before the special-order stuff comes out). **** Good dishes: Pakoras (spicy and flavorful, perfectly cooked, piping hot) Naan (comes with most mains; hot, fresh, and covered with butter) *** Decent dishes: Goat curry (not spicy, but good flavor and very tender) Salt and pepper grill special plate (chicken tikka, grilled lamb, seikh kabob; pretty flavorful) ** Average dishes: Chicken curry (wasn't very spicy) Chole (a little weak on flavor/spice) Kidney beans (curried; ok) Cabbage (not bad; very fresh) Chicken biryani (the chicken in it was good; dish itself was very peppery---black pepper; lots of other spices in it; I didn't love the dish, but at least it didn't lack flavor; was very different from other biryanis I've had) * Below Average dishes: Chicken tikka masala (very bland; chicken itself was fine; sauce was creamy but not very exciting) This food seems mostly adjusted for the pallets of those who live nearby... nice that there's a Pakistani/Indian option in the area, but wish it was a little spicier and more flavorful. Ravi Kabob, in Arlington, is still the best, most authentic Pakistani (Punjabi) food that I've had outside of Pakistan (and my parents agree). Kabob Palace in Crystal city is good too, but more Afghani style food; I love Ravi Kabob... Mehran in Foggy Bottom isn't bad Pakistani food either; but pretty greasy (best to order things that require cooking at Mehran). read more

This is my go to spot for DC's best Indian food. Thick, savory sauces without the oily layer I have gotten from other Indian restaurants in the city. The garlic naan just heals me. The staff are incredibly nice and the delivery is always fast & free. I know it's going to be a good night when Salt & Pepper Grill is on the menu. read more

Not bad at all and being the only south asian food in the area I'm glad it doesn't suck. I had the butter chicken and saag channa. The butter chicken was actually a little too sweet without enough pop to really be super interesting. The spinach was quite solid. naan was basic and good as well. I'd like to try their samosa chaat and lamb stuff. I'll be back. It's kinda pricy at nearly $10 a plate but the portion is generous and could easily be two meals. read more

I got takeout from here a few weeks ago and it was so good that I'm still thinking about it! I got the Chicken Saag while my husband got the Chicken Vindaloo. Both were super flavorful and the curry had a nice consistency to it. Traveled well in the takeout containers so no complaints here! read more

Best rated Indian food in DC? Yes, please. With high expectations, my wife and two friends ventured up to NW DC from Capitol Hill to try this place's naan and tikka masala. My friend and I had it in our minds that this place would be a nice sit down restaurant so we were surprised to find a whole-in-the-wall restaurant with fluorescent lighting. You order your food next to a buffet of Indian food, which doesn't give you the best impression, but wait until you get the food. The naan is for sure the best I've had in DC perfectly hot and buttered. I loved the tikka masala, but it was a little more sweet than you are probably used to (My wife and friend didn't enjoy it, but I loved it!). My wife and friend got the biryani and enjoyed it. My other friend (from Delaware) got butter chicken and enjoyed it too. If you like Indian, venture up to NW to at least try this place. read more

My partner grew up in India and is a fantastic cook, so she has a high bar when it comes to South Asian food in the U. S. We were hoping Salt and Pepper would make our rotation as we live so nearby, and we're very happy to say it did! We had the goat biryani and chicken karahi, and both hit the spot beautifully. They were generous with the meat portions and everything was balanced, not oily. Chicken is so often underwhelming in South Asian cuisine in the U.S., but this was high quality and tender. The goat biryani was solid and tasty. Service was friendly and professional. We'll be back! read more

Ordered two garlic naan bread and chicken tikka masala one night in town with my husband. We were craving Indian food so why not try something local. It was delicious and the perfect amount of spice and flavor. The garlic naan bread was nice and fluffy just like my mom made it when I was younger. The curry had the right amount of meat and decent portion.Chicken Tikka Masala read more

By far one of my favorite Indian carry outs. My go to's are the curry chicken, shrimp vindaloo and the salmon biryani. You have the option to order from the menu or the ready to serve hot bar. Customer service is always good. I order mostly for delivery ($25 min), but occasionally I will pick up an order or eat inside if I'm on the go. The dining area is really small and always clean. There is plenty of street parking. read more

I didn't realize that I had never written a review for here. Sucks for them. I say that because, although my last visit wasn't my least favorite. It was nothing like my 2013-14 visits. Salt and Pepper used to have Georgia Ave. crankin with the smell of curries simmering. So inviting. Now, there are days where I can still smell what is probably just a vat of cardomom with a fan blowing the smell out doors. In the age of Trump you got to hustle even harder. This past time I stopped by for the a lil lunch. I wasn't expecting much, just wanted to eat and take a break from the heat. I even got the Chicken Tikka. I didn't see any Paneer dishes so that helped me make that decision but I am sure there was one, just with a Pakistani name. No sé So, here's the blow by blizow. I got in there and it was mega hot. It was over 80 degrees outside and they were being cheap with the A/C. But it's their house. When I told them I was dining and sat with the CityPaper, hot off the presses, they cut the air on. Cool. Me sitting in the window was inviting business. Shoot, it was empty when I entered. I was reading and thought, "Glad they cut this air on, being cheap. Watch me be cheap and not tip when I pay." Now I don't know if I willed this to happen by thinking that but when my food was ready I went to pay and pick it up. I purposefully put my way a distance from their lil empty tip cup. Shawty handed me my money, passing her hand over said cup. I said I wasn't tippin. Any way, that was that. My lunch was aight. Like I mentioned earlier and ANkita M. too, it ain't like it used to be. Plus it ain't hardly open it seems like. "I wanna shoop baby!" read more

I called this place last night for delivery after reading some yelp reviews. We later decided to dine in-- just in case the food was sub par; we didn't want to be stuck with fifty dollars in less than stellar Indian delivery. We ended up trucking into this place around 7pm last night, and i created a yelp account (while still in the restaurant) solely for the purpose of giving this place five stars! The decor is lackluster, but makes up for it in made to order deliciousness. The owner took the time to learn my name, and referred to me by it for the rest of the evening. He was super nice--accommodating, attentive, and offered lots of vegetarian selections. the food was a party in my mouth-- and for cheap! we had the palak paneer, garlic naan and baingan bhartha, and it was aMAYzing-- i also heard that the tandoori chicken was "falling off the bone." i checked out the plates of the folks around us, and it all looked good-- especially the paneer pakora (will definitely try it next time!)! we walked out with enough leftovers for two more meals- the portions are huge and you can definitely share. they offer delivery in the parkview/petworth/columbia heights area, and the food's great-- i am so glad this place is in my neighborhood! read more

This is one of my favorite and go-to places for delivery, though I warn you that when they say it'll take 45 minutes (as they usually do), it does take that long. You also have to hit a $25 minimum. But the delivery folks I've seen are friendly, and more importantly, the food is delicious. The biryanis are tasty, though perhaps a little heavy on the seasoning. I had the chicken curry recently, and it was one of my favorites, though you probably won't have enough for leftovers. read more

Ordered takeout from here the other night. The food took a little longer than expected to arrive and my thoughts are as follows: -garlic naan is too small for $3.75. I can get a piece that is twice as large for $2.50 at other places -butter chicken portion is good for the price -meal does come with rice, though it's not stated -I ordered the "mild" butter chicken and it wasn't very spicy (good thing) but it was weirdly sweet (bad thing) Probably will not order again. read more

Delicious. I am an Indian. Born and raised in the Indian restaurant business. Salt and Pepper Grill is my go-to for when I'm feeling too lazy to cook Indian food myself. Their chaat is delicious, and always the right balance of spice and sweet - for Indians, not for people that cannot handle spice. The curries are always flavorful and seasoned correctly. There is nothing bad to say. They deliver, it's delicious, and worth the price. read more

THE LAMB KARAHI LITERALLY THE BEST THING ON THE MENU. If you like spice this is the food to get. Now I will warn it will have your nose running.

This place serves great food and the staff are always friendly. I've ordered from here many times, and I've never been disappointed. Their veggie samosas are great. Other favorites are aloo chat, veggie biryani (flavorful and spicy), pakora, garlic naan... the portions are also big, so we often share the biryani and get a couple sides. And usually have leftovers. The venue itself isn't maybe the most promising, and with some improved lighting it might feel more suitable for staying and eating. But the food is awesome. Well worth it! read more
