This place is incredible! If you’re new to Indian cuisine or have had bad experience else where you gotta come to this place! All their dishes are so good so delicious that you would never have to worry about what to to order ! My girlfriend and I love this place to death and we even want to have our wedding party here.

Wonderful friendly service with flavorful but not overpowering spice. On vacation now but would come back regularly if my hometown. Kashmiri nan was new to me but phenomenal.

Poor, extremely slow service. More than 30 minutes to get our drinks then meals took far too long. Two hours total for dinner. Understaffed and those who worked there didn't communicate well. Food was average at best. Won't be back

We were early so the place was quiet but there were definitely more people as we were leaving. The restaurant is pretty basic - not fancy but the food is a little on the pricey side but was excellent. We eat at a lot of Indian restaurants and this was one of the best meals I have had. The fried spinach was amazing. Not sure about the French name or a lot of the wines were French but it was all good.

Horrible! Bad service, quality of food isn’t the great, the whole experience was just terrible.Food we ordered never arrived, staff was not courteous at all.I’ve been to several restaurants but never had an experience as bad as this one.Went to celebrate one of the most important occasions and turned out to be a complete nightmare.If you are a big group beware of gratuity turns out you’ll end up paying way more then your actual bill.

Always been a big fan of Le Mirch. The people are super nice there and very accommodating. Huge fan of their lamb shank and biriyanis. Also love their jackfruit curry. We go there whenever we have a chance and also use their catering services. Just last night, we ordered food for a birthday party and everything turned out perfect. We ordered three kinds of biriyanis, lamb dishes, and chicken dishes- all were tasty and fresh. Also, love their mango lassi. ♥️

Lovely environment, great service, wonderful food. I highly recommend the Chile momo and Rogan Josh. If it isn’t quite hot enough to kill your tape worm, ask for a spicy caddy and they will hook you up.Such a nice spot

I ordered catering for my birthday from Le Mirch and it was a great experience. The food was great, and packed professionally for pickup and prepped in time. I highly recommend the biryani and lamb dishes.

Great food, great staff, great experience. Seriously, my waitress was wonderful and offered me fantastic suggestions of food I should try. I was never disappointed with any of my orders. I cannot recommend this restaurant enough. If you're in the DC area and you enjoy Indian cuisine, go out and try it. Satisfaction guaranteed.
Everything we tried was delicious! We had their vegetable korma, chicken curry and a house special chicken in tomato sauce. The vegetable korma was a table favorite and we all agreed that this was our new favorite Indian restaurant.

Good place to eat near DuPont Circle. Good menu choices and friendly staff. Casual atmosphere.

The service was tremendously horrible. First of all, we had a reservation which they blatantly ignored. They were still able to seat us at the scheduled time. Next, the waitress turned off the heated fireplace next to where we were sitting because SHE was feeling hot. We were never served water at all until we had to request it and even then, we had a party of 5 and they only gave us 4 glasses.Another waitress had taken our drink order and our drinks never came. One of the waiters brought 1 drink and told us they were out of the mango lassi. None of us had ordered the drink he brought and we never received our initial drink orders.The waitress who initially seated us came by and took our meal order and later we asked her about our drinks to which she blatantly did not know if she'd taken our orders.We sat for 35 minutes with nothing brought to us, in the cold, with one of our party members not having a glass for water. We went and asked her about our orders and she said "We are understaffed. I thought you'd understand but that was my mistake".We ended up walking out and going elsewhere. We had entered the restaurant at 8:30 pm, walked out at 9:30 pm, and finally had dinner by 10:20 pm when we were sat and properly served at another Indian restaurant.This was the worst service I've ever witnessed at a restaurant in my life. I've worked in the food industry and even I know that the way she treated us and spoke to us was completely unprofessional.Another thing to add is that we noticed all of the other customers were sat and eating and happy and they were all of other ethnicities except Indian. My family and I felt singled out and we were expected to be understanding when we've never met the waitress before in our lives.This place was completely unprofessional and a complete waste of time. I highly recommend avoiding this place if you're Indian because they will expect you to be understanding and won't treat you with the same service as they do to others.

I took my boyfriend for his birthday—it's one of his favorite places! He is from India and is always happy to have authentic food! The service was also great, and it was fun getting to point out which Bollywood movies the songs being played were from.

Great food - we had vegetable vindaloo and aubergine curry. Both were great and their garlic naan was excellent as well.
