Virraaj Indian Cuisine - Bethesda

Best Indian food I’ve ever had. It was spicy, but sooooo yum. The food is high quality, the cocktails are creative, and the atmosphere is lovely.

My new favorite restaurant! The food, the drinks and the service were impeccable and the presentation of the food and drinks was beautiful! The owner was very personable and went out of his way to ensure everything was perfect. I highly recommend this restaurant!

Fine Indian cuisine in Bethesda and excellent Indian food over

We recently tried Viraaj Indian cuisine in Bethesda and the food, the ambience and the service was all first class. From the quantity to the quality of food was amazing.You know a restaurant has got its act together when the appetizers are given so much attention. Indian street food is known around the world for its tangy and tasty appetizers and Viraaj has nailed it. We started with different type of appetizers, Aloo Pakora(Potato fritter) Dahi Bhalla, spinach Chat and Fish Pakoras. I have eaten at lots of Indian restaurants in the DC metro area and I have never had similar Aloo Pakora anywhere..they were crispy with right amount of seasoning. The Fish Pakoras were also so amazing that even my kids who are not fond of seafood enjoyed them.For the main dish, we ordered Delhi butter chicken, Ma Ki Dal, Chicken Biryani, Corn Saag and several different kinds of breads like, Parantha, Naan Bread, Makke ki Roti. Everything was so fresh and the quality was top notch. The DC metro area has many Indian restaurants but only handful are any good. It’s great to see the passion of the owner and chef in every aspect of the experience at Viraaj and I am hoping Viraaj expands to other parts in the DC area. You know how when you want “PeriPeri Chicken” or Italian food, Nando’s or Magianos comes to your mind? I wouldn’t be surprised if when you want Indian food, Viraaj is the only one that you would think of. Try this restaurant and enjoy the best Indian food in this area.

Best Indian place in Bethesda, hands down. Great flavorful food! Always have a good time. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $30–50
