Aditi Indian Dining - Alexandria

I was in many Indian restaurants that have AYCE in the DMV area. And this is the best place for the price. Food is consistently good. Things I tried: AYCE, Manga mocktail, Mango leti, Samosas, Dhaba Gosht (lamb) . The Samosas were BIG and tasteful. What Aditi emphasize besides the great food are the modern ambience, attentive servers and the CLEAN restaurant. There is always someone checking on the AYCE section to make sure it looks organized and clean. Her salad bar has various things and dressings, not only some boring tomatoes, salad like other places. I wouldn't go anywhere else for the Indian buffet. You can't beat the price and quality here.

The buffet featured around six different dishes, two types of rice, two dessert options, and several appetizers. Individual orders generally range from $10 to $18, so opting for the buffet is definitely a better choice! It’s available from Wednesday to Sunday, 12 PM to 2:30 PM. The servers were friendly and attentive. We can't wait to return with our whole family! If you haven't tried this place yet or are thinking about it, I highly encourage you to go! It’s definitely worth your time, money, and calories! One minor point I’d mention is that the tables felt a bit too close together, but that didn’t detract from our wonderful experience!

The All-you-can-eat buffet is from Wednesday to Sunday and is much to $15.99, with appetizers, salads, main dishes (including butter chicken and goats) and dessert. The Mango Lassi was very thick and creamy and reasonable at $3.99. The staff is very nice and friendly. Conveniently located in Kingstowne shopping center opposite the cinema.

This is our favorite place for Indian food throughout the DC area. The restaurant atmosphere is cozy and slightly elevated with excellent service. We've never had a problem with our order when eating or ordering. I love the curries being diceed without reserve and not pulled down to a blazing palette. We have eaten here in recent years, and despite a very good attempt in recent years, their quality has never changed. I particularly welcome the milk-free, non-meat options that are difficult to find.

The service was a bit slow, so when we finally caught our waiter’s attention, we made sure to place our entire order at once. We started with the samosas, which were delicious—fresh, hot, and full of flavor. For our main courses, we ordered chicken tikka masala and salmon tikka masala. While the meats were tender, I found the sauce to be quite sweet, which was not what I expected. I generally prefer a blend of sweet and spicy flavors. It wasn't bad, just different from what I'm used to. The naan was freshly made and incredibly soft, melting in my mouth. I preferred the regular naan over the cheese naan, as the cheese added little to the experience and was quite bland. Overall, it was a decent meal, but there’s room for improvement.
