Brain Drain Modern Indian Kitchen & Bar

Everyone in here was very friendly.

Ordering was easy - they have new, responsive tablets for ordering and paying.

The food was delicious. I've had several of the small plates, and would highly recommend getting the dumplings or fried cauliflower as starters.

The decor was simple, fresh, and modern.

The buffet that seems to garner so many complaints was nowhere to be found - they may have updated since those reviews were written.

I plan to be back here at every available opportunity. One of my new all-time favorites.

Best Indian Restaurant in and around DC ! Meat lovers heaven. Chicken and goat was perfectly cooked. The chef focuses on flavor rather than spicy. If you are looking for spicy food then I would recommend mentioning when you order.

Friendly staff; clean, colorful, casual ambiance, and absolutely delicious food. We ordered the palak paneer, butter chicken, wings, samosas, and naan. Everything was super tasty. They do a great job with the fried items — crispy and tender without being greasy. We will be making this a regular spot!

Usually once Indian food tries to go trendy flavor and quality drop off this flat earth that we live on. This place isn’t owned by the 1/3 of people in the world to believe in the flat earth conspiracy and the food doesn’t fall off the edge either. We are family style and every single dish was worth its weight. Super flavorful, super affordable, and some great Indian beers to chill the tongue when it’s on fire.

Went here on the recommendation of some co-workers and was not disappointed! The food was excellent (I had spicy goat curry), and it came rather quickly. I love the decor in the place, and the guy who was running everything seemed pretty friendly. My only issue was the odd ordering setup (apparently they changed it so you have to go up to the counter to order fairly recently).
