Natraj Indian Cuisine - Culpeper

Was delivered fresh and hot. I love the tanginess of the curry thats well balanced out with the chunks of paneer.

I love Indian food, first time trying this place. I had a friend over so ordered multiple dishes for them to try. I got Mango Chicken, Chicken Tandoori, Mixed Vegetable Grill, and Chicken Chaat. Flavors were great but all the meats were extremely dry. Meat Samosa (2 Pieces) tasted old and reheated, definitely didnt seem fresh. Excellent vegatables and Garlic Naan, the rest were disappointing.

Love this restaurant!!! my favorite dishes are the butter chicken, chicken korma, bread basket, or at least these are my current regular orders, and sometimes I toss in another dish or two. I’ve had other dishes and everything I’ve had has been amazing . They also let you customize the level of heat which I appreciate. Sometimes I ask for medium heat, but when I have migraines, I ask for it to be spicy (since it helps with my migraines) and they never disappoint. The service is incredibly warm and welcoming, even if you are just getting a takeout order, like I usually do. . I love Indian cuisine, and not all Indian restaurants are the same. This one is a definitely a cut above the rest, and I highly recommend. Five stars, all around. (Now I’m craving their food, I’ll make an order this week for sure)

The appetizer was decent, however after landing at our table we waited well over an hour in a half for our entrees to show. It was supposed to be a nice dinner with fiance, as we initially lost our original baby sitter and had to scramble to find another who had a shorter available time slot, but after seeing tables that had arrived well (hour after we ordered our food, recieve their food before us, without even an explanation as to why we were waiting prompted us to simply ask them to produce a check that covers our ordered app and tea but they waived it. Still the principal is why keep us waiting for an hour in 45 minutes after serving us an appetizer and not even explain or tell us the food will be out shortly or was forgot to be put in. If the restauruant was extremely busy I would understand, but we made a reservation, and watched patrons who entered over an hour after us receive apps and entrees. Simply ignoring us for that long when we only had 3 hours to go out (due to baby sitter , cost them 2 loyal customers.

I have so much to say about this place I could write a book about it, I'm gonna make it as short as i can. First the service, you won't find better service anywhere, the people who run the place are a husband and wife, they couldn't be nicer they're awesome, I love them. So yea 5/5 on the service. Then the atmosphere, the atmosphere is AMAZING I feel like I'm actually in India, all the colors in there are very Indian like, the music is beautiful, me and my cousin loved it, so 5/5 on the atmosphere. Lastly the food, when I took my first bite I almost cried out of happiness, it's hot, delicious, full of taste, and when you ask for spice best belive you get spice, and all the prices are amazing and affordable, can't get enough of this place. I'll have these people cater at my wedding, it's that dang good. So 5/5 on the food. Nothing is perfect, but let me tell ya they came dang close to perfect. See ya soon.
