GolpoSholpo — Restaurant in Chantilly

Golpo Sholpo – A Bangladeshi Flavor hangout place in the Heart of the Fairfax, VA 🌶️🍛

If you're craving bold spices, smoky aromas, and food that tastes like your back home kitchen, Golpo Sholpo is where you need to be. Nestled in a cozy corner of route 50 & Majestic ln, this unassuming spot packs a punch with every bite. we recently stop by with few friends and let me tell you my taste buds are still celebrating.

Let’s start with the Liver Samusa, Crispy golden pastry gives way to a rich, spiced minced liver filling, warm, earthy, and perfectly seasoned with cumin, garam masala, and a hint of green chili. It’s bold, it’s different, and honestly? I’d fight someone for the last piece. Served with tangy tamarind chutney, it’s a game-changer.

Fuchka that made me close my eyes and say “Ahhhh” Light, crackly fuchka (pani puri ) filled to the brim with spiced potato, chickpeas, and doused in Tamarind with a kick that sneaks up on you. The tamarind liquid was perfectly balanced sweet, sour, and spicy in one explosive mouthful.

And then… the Tehari (Beef Biryani”. OMG Tender, fall-off-the-bone beef slow-cooked in aromatic basmati rice, layered with caramelized onions, fresh mint, and just the right amount of rose water. Every grain soaked in flavor, with a subtle smokiness that tells you this was made with hug on a plate! The meat was melt-in-your-mouth, and the spice level? Just enough to warm your soul without burning your insides. Served with a side of cool raita and a boiled egg, it’s a complete experience. This biryani isn’t just food—it’s therapy.

Finally, Golpo Sholpo doesn’t just serve tea—they serve “moments”. It’s cheap, it’s fast, it’s hot, and it’s real. Whether you’re recovering from last night’s biryani coma or just finished a 12-hour shift, this street chai will set you right.

📍Vibe & Service The place is small between a gas station, with Desi beats playing softly in the background. The staff? Super friendly, and they actually listen when you ask for something. Bonus: they pack takeout beautifully, so your biryani arrives intact and steaming.

Final Verdict: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5) Golpo Sholpo nails it with bold flavors, fresh ingredients, and dishes that feel like Bangladesh. even if you’ve never been to the subcontinent. Whether you're a pani puri pro (fuchka”, a biryani connoisseur, or just brave enough to try liver samusa, this spot deserves a spot on your must-eat list with...

We had the fuska (with naga morich) and chitoi pitha. We enjoyed the food and it was so flavorful. The spice levels were perfect and we will be back again.

The atmosphere is also great, with nice music, lights, and all the people of all ages coming together to enjoy the food. It is truly amazing to see a family owned business like this. However, I will say that some aspects of the service could have been better. We were trying to order at the register, and in the middle of us ordering, another customer came up to the register while we were still standing there in front of him and the owner began taking his order while we were still talking to him. Of course, it was inappropriate that the other customer did that as we were standing there, but we expect that the owner should not just ignore us when we are still talking to him and placing our order. By that time, we had ordered half of our order and it was so unexpected to be treated this way. It made us feel unwanted in a way. I hope that this feedback can be taken in a positive way to allow all customers to feel respected and wanted rather than how we had felt. We truly did enjoy the food, so I would not want anyone to have that aspect of the service affect whether or not they...

TLDR; finally a good Bangladeshi spot. SPICE LEVEL = BANGLADESH

Before we get into the review, the owners and everyone running the business are the sweetest bunch. They will make sure you feel at home.

This restaurant is situated in the back of a gas station and in between their car wash. It is very hard to miss when driving by that road.

Food is proper. We tried almost everything on their menu and it was great. I almost cried when I heard they had Kolija Shingara and the first thing I did was get 2 of those and milk tea. Proper deshi feels. We tried too many stuff and genuinely impressed with it all. If I had to nitpick, consider finishing off Tehari with some mustard oil for the aroma
