Aha Indian Kitchen — Restaurant in Virginia

NOTE: I’m a regular customer at this place from it’s starting day but days goes on i found many flaws at this place i’m done with my worst experiences so that i’m writing this review, Dear management please read everything so carefully and take severe action about this Firstly I tried the mirchi bajji at this place, and I must say, it was an absolute disaster. The taste was just terrible, I couldn't even finish one piece. They were not properly cooked; they felt undercooked. Plus, making the experience even worse. The mirchi bajjis were not properly cooked; they were served to me ice-cold (Actually they meant to be served hot). Speaking of presentation(earlier they cut mirchi into two halfs and stuffed with onions but now they gave onions and mirchi bajjis separately and they dont even squeezed lemon on mirchi bajji) , or lack thereof, these mirchi bajjis were simply plopped into a box without any care or attention to detail. It looked like an unappetizing mess. I mentioned a couple of times about my worst experiences with this place to the front desk but i think it never went up-to the management and chef (may be due to lack of internal communication)cause i never saw any improvement in the recipe. The chef needs a serious overhaul, and the management should consider reevaluating their entire menu. This place is a culinary disaster, and I would strongly advise against ordering any item here. Save your taste buds the agony and look elsewhere for a satisfying meal.

To conclude this a best place which I tasted pure Indian food at earlier stage of this place im writing this review to know that we are missing that authentic flavors missed as times goes on so look into it and fix it as soon...

Previously known as the Indian Pastry House (IPH), this place has recently undergone a change in management, having been taken over about two years ago. Despite this change, the quality of their food has remained consistent, which is quite commendable.

AHA Restaurant is a favorite among me due to their exceptional dosas. They offer a wide variety of dosas, each with its unique flavor and texture. The quality of their dosas is simply amazing, and the portions are generous. Even my parents also enjoyed south indian cuisine here. One of their specialties is Indian chai, which is incredibly delicious. It’s a must-try for anyone visiting the area. I also had the opportunity to try their birthday cake (Rasmalai cake in my case) where the associate also asked my choice if I wanted eggless or with eggs. It was so soft and flavorful that I highly recommend getting a birthday cake from this location. The service at AHA Restaurant is also quite quick, which is a plus for those who are short on time. Overall, AHA Restaurant is a great place to get a delicious and satisfying meal. It’s conveniently located near Lakshmi Indian Grocery Store on...

I normally never bother with negative restaurant reviews, I only post positive dining experiences, but after our experience with the potential health hazards of this place, I had to leave a review of warning to the consumers. This experience is from a few weeks back - We ordered upma, ghee roast dosai, and samosa chat. -First of all, almost ALL of the food items were stale or verging on stale!!! First my upma arrived literally cold, it was very clear that it was from the previous day or may be from even before that! I had to send it back to be warmed up, it was then brought back microwaved. The white chutney was definitely fully stale! -The ghee roasts in just minutes after arriving became like cardboard, very evident that there was way too much Maida in the batter. Thankfully the Sambar was normal and not stale. -The samosa chat was also stale! This place should be shut down for serving stale food. We used to like this place when it was 'Indian Pastry House'. This was the first time we tried this place after it became 'Aha Indian Kitchen'. After this experience of being served every dish stale, we are...
