Kaveri South Indian Restaurant

They have weekend buffets , Tuesday indo - Chinese buffet and thursday Dosa Buffet. They have their upcoming buffet menu on facebook page one day before so you can always see what they offering . the names are very complicated but look very tempting .Now the food is good , i wouldn't say great, A lot of dishes are different from what they are named . You always have a great start to the buffet but by the end of it always seems like something was missing and feel unsatisfied. Staff is very attentive, welcoming and nice. Regardless, We would still continue going here.

Husband and I came in on a weekday evening. We stumbled upon their dinner buffet.Pros-Unfortunately, I don't know any of the names of the dishes at the buffet. I did try a little bit of everything. I really enjoyed the food. It tasted fresh and loved the unique different types of spices used.-There were so many vegetarian and non-vegetarian options-The customer service was outstanding. I'm not sure if it's the owner or manager but he really catered to us. Explains the origin of the food or dish to showing us how to eat the food properly to get the authentic experience. Felt like a mini food tour.-Prices are reasonable.-Ambiance was quiet. This is not a fancy restaurant and had catchy Indian music playing.Cons-Wished they had labels and a small description of the food to know exactly what I was eating.-Parking lot is tight

Everything went well today. The food was delicious as usual. There was a little bit of change in the buffet choices, but most of all I noticed they had the goat curry which was delicious! I was able to get my favorite Chai Tea. The young man who served was quite polite and helpful.This was a perfect choice for lunch because I was in a hurry and I was able to go in and out. I also quite enjoyed the Indian videos that was showing while I ate. Great lunch.

This is one of my favorite South Indian restaurants in the DMV area. Their lunch buffet is a must try here. They have a huge spread of deliciousness in their buffet menu. You can think of anything and they have it. I started off with some idlies, mutton and egg curry. It's a staple South Indian breakfast for the meat lovers. Reminded me of my mother's cooking. Then I went to the live dosa counter where the chef made crispy dosas. I tried it with the coconut chutney, chicken curry and sambar. So good! After some appetizers, I went straight to the biryani section. Two delicious biryanis to die for - Chennai style chicken biryani and Hyderabadi style mutton biryani was so good. Highly recommend it. Chicken kabobs were very good too. For deserts, I tried the kheer and the gulab jamun. It was amazing. Absolutely authentic. They also have banana leaf lunch once or twice a year during the Indian festival. Highly recommend this place. Service is great and love the ambiance.

We walked into a big empty restaurant with large tables and booths.Clara smelled the Indian food It smelled great Lily smell the incense burning when you first walk in.We hear the Bollywood Indian music video of the tv and watch mesmerized until the food comes.The palak paneer was so good same as the curried chicken, the chicken was buttered chicken so it was not as spicy but still all the food was a bit spicy so if sensitive to spice will need to choose carefully.The dosa is my father's favorite. We try it a bumpy, crunchy sort of bread.In conclusion we think that there should be more people here and you should definitely try the palak paneer and the curry chicken.

Today we went to this restaurant. All meat pieces were very hard and big. It was clear that it was old and reheated. No refill for biriyani. Rice of the biriyani was very dry. One can easily identify it was reheated several times. All other veggies were also old. White rice was dry as well. Vada was good, onsite dosa was good. Halwa was good. On a Sunday, when buffet restaurant was not that crowded, we should have decided and gone. Surely not worth the cost $24 for few fresh food that was cooked today with rest of them - old stuff. I got stomach upset in 30 min to rush to public rest room. Not sure what they have put.

My husband went for an office event. They were around 40 people, pre booked the restaurant for lunch buffet. The vegetarian starters just had gobi Manchurian which was finished when they reached at 12:45 pm and they did not replenish even after asking 3-4 times and mini samosas which were extremely oily and black from inside. There was sambhar and rasam but no dosa/uttapam/idli/vada to go with it. Paneer gravy in main course didn't had any paneer pieces.Salad was kept not at a very visual place so no one took it.In last 10 years that we have been in the area, we haven't had such a bad experience and that too when it was a pre planned event. I'm surprised how can the owners/managers not see the problem and do something to rectify it.I will not recommend this restaurant to anyone, please don't waste your time and money.

I went an hour before closing and it was still amazing! Food was fresh and delicious, perfect spice level too. I'm from Phoenix and this was the first Indian cuisine place I saw out here and I was very satisfied. I had butter chicken and garlic naan, definitely recommend!

The food was very delicious! Some of the best chicken and biryani I've had. Service was polite and attentive.

Loved this place. Very friendly staff. I asked for egg parotha (not on the menu, but a favorite of mine) with chicken curry. It was outstanding. Ordered two sweet lassis -- they were that good -- and Madras degree coffee. I didn't try the lunch buffet. . Heartily recommend this restaurant.
