Hands down one of my favorite Indian food places in DC. They have two locations, so be sure when you call you’re getting the right one. Well-known. The spinach appetizer is BOMb.

The least expensive best tasting Peruvian chicken you’ll find in DC. Get the whole chicken with 3 sides for around $30 and feed your entire family. It’s wild. And soooo tasty.
