The Chicken Tiki Masala is amazing and absolutely delicious!!! My mouth is salivating even as I write about it! One of the best I've had in the DC metro area! Warning though- this dish tastes closer to "Butter Chicken." But that's my favorite Indian dish, so it works for me! If you're looking for a spucky kick, be sure to add in the notes, since this dish is not spicy at all. Also- the vegetable samosas are hands-down the best I've had!!! They're HUGE and the texture is perfect... light, slight crisp with no grease and the savory chick-pea and potato filling isn't dry, like other places! The only slightly negative critique I have is the rice pudding is kind of watered down... although it's still delicious, I'd prefer it creamier. Regardless, my compliments to the chef and staff at Kahinoor Dhaba!! Highly recommend!!!

I was super happy with their food and timely delivery! If you are a person like me who just loves spicy food (yup i am korean), you won't be disappointed with their spicy level! My spicy Chicken Tikka Masala was amazingly delicious. I am sad that I can't order from them anymore because I am going back to Pittsburgh. I hope I can find a Indian restaurant as good as this one in Pittsburgh!

Weve been in the DC area for five days and this is hands down the best food weve had. Both of our dishes were absolutely delicious and perfectly spiced! The Chicken Tikka was moist as can be and the Tandoori shrimp was to die for. We also popped for the Delivery was a solid 20 minutes sooner than expected too. Highly recommended!

I'm in love with Kohinoor Dhaba! I just moved into the area and I was impressed with everything about my order. When you say you want something spicy, you get just that. Usually, Indian restaurants will say they make something "hot" and then you get mild tomato soup...not here! My paneer tikka masala was wonderfully spicy. Thanks!!

Got here 30 minutes ahead of estimate so bonus points for that. I wish I could just get a container of their tikka masala sauce it's so good. Their naan and roti are great. I was not impressed by the palak paneer though, it was bland and flavorless.

I usually order from this place via phone rather than using this app. While the food was awesome, as usual, I found their attention to detail no so awesome. They left off one item, and when I asked to substitute the free samosa for gulab jamun, they gave me both and charged me for the samosa. There wasn't a place to take them up on the offer as stated in their paper menu. The food is awesome, consistent, arrives hot, and the level of spice can be customized to your taste.

The food was fantastic - tender chicken and lamb - great seasoning - fantastic price. I didn't have any problems with delivery times like other reviewers and I have ordered from here quite a few times! I highly recommend the Baingan Bharta - it's almost more like a puree but it makes for a great vegetable side dish. I also love the lamb rogan josh but it is very different from any other restaurants I've had it at. It is cream-based rather than tomato based like most recipes.

Our office ordered from Kohinoor Dhaba for Friday Fun Lunch, and everyone was impressed with the quality of the food. Great remarks about the authenticity of dishes and their flavors.

Excellent Indian food. The dishes are especially creamy, and they can be ordered with varying spiciness. The most spicy runs much hotter than typical Indian fare in this area.

This was my first order from this restaurant. Everything was delicious: I seem to have accidentally stumbled on really good Indian food!

Indian food is not all the same, but reflects the different conditions spread across this vast land populated by over a billion people. One of the most respected is the Punjabi style, which owes much to the geographical position of the Punjab itself. For first-time tasters of Kohinoor Dhaba, the Paneer Pakora and Chat Papari make for savory appetizers. Also highly recommended are the Butter Chicken, Goat Curry and Chicken Tikka Masala. These are best eaten when accompanied by naan, a traditional, soft Indian flat-bread made in special tandoori ovens.
