Curry Mantra is vegetarian and non-vegetarian Indian restaurant in Fairfax. We serve wide variety of curries from north as well south india.
The owners are Muslim and have confirmed its halal status. All food at this restaurant is certified halal.
Score reflects a halal certificate on file, with an active issue report under review.
Gave us burnt food takeout, burnt and unacceptable food, don't come here,
I have driven by a few times but sadly with all the idols in there i have and will not be tempted to go in... Brother Asad clean up your restaurant if you want muslims to eat there!
Brother & Sisters . I ( Asad Sheikh ) Owner of Curry Mantra 1 . 2 & 3 I confirm that this restaurant serve Only Halal Indian Food.
Not owned by Muslims I think. Throughout the dinner 2 ppl were playing sitar and veena. And lots of bronze statues were placed near the entrance. Although they verbally assure all the meats are halal we were very much doubtful, hence we sticked with vegetarian dishes. Food is sub par and very expensive.
Had their food the other day their food was good but for the price not really.
They suggested meat was halal. I took there word for it. Looks like it's run by Indians. I had the buffet, was very nice. The service was also good. But I would like that the food is confirmed to be halal. Didn't see any 'halal' signs. Would return if I was confident all food WAS HALAL
Very good food. Nice atmosphere and friendly staff. Highly recommended.
Had the lunch buffet. Less of a selection, but high quality food. Would definitely return.
I was craving good Indian Cuisine and had no clue where to go in NOVA, so I did a quick search for “the best Indian food near me” and “Curry Mantra” rose to the top! So there I went and I am so delighted I did! The menu was extensive and it appears they make most if not all of the menu items from scratch! My server was so patient and helpful she answered all of my questions as I had quite a few. I ordered the Samosa (to-die-for!) as an appetizer— definitely made from scratch—you can taste it! For my entree, I had the Tandoori Mixed Grill with a side of Garlic Naan Bread and the Mango Lassi -YUM! Great meal! I really liked the jumbo shrimp and boti kabob (lamb)! Full disclosure, I found the chicken tikka a bit tough for my taste. The Garlic Naan bread was delish! It tasted like the kitchen freshly peeled and diced the garlic and grilled it up fresh!! Take my word NOVA and visitors, you will LOVE IT! Food is made fresh and to your preference, but most importantly, the food is made with love! And there is nothing better than that, except for Momma’s homemade of course. Sorry no photos! I ate first then decided to write this review! But as you can see from my clean plate(s), I thoroughly enjoyed my meal.
