Sangam, 
3205 Columbia Pike. 
Arlington. VA 22204

 The food is spicy and full of flavour and we especially enjoy the vegetarian and lamb dishes. One of the few Curry houses that has yellow as well as black dahl on the menu so its a hit with our kids (we ask them to cook the dahl with no chillies).  It is a bit pricey, but the food is lovely. We have only had food to take out from Sangam's, and  look forward to eating their south Indian food which is only available in-house.

Not glamourous, but the real deal.  Good lunchtime buffet and great
chef’s specials.  

London Curry House,
Alexandria is 191 Somervelle Street , 
Alexandria , 
VA 22304
Located in the Cameron Station neighborhood.
The owner also manages several other Indian restaurants throughout the Northern Virginia area but he tells me that he spent 10 days in London just to experience the authentic taste of dishes served in the UK. He then opened the London Curry House to offer up delights similar to those found in London.
