Pappe - Washington

This restaurant review seriously needs a 1/2 star option. It was better than a 4-star rating but not quite 5 stars. The butter chicken was delicious, with a good balance of meat and sauce. I ordered garlic naan to soak up the butter chicken sauce, which was a solid dish in terms of spice and flavor. The mango lassi was also very good. For dessert, I tried the creme brulee, which I would rate around 3.5 stars. It had a unique twist to it that didn't quite match my taste preferences. Overall, the food was not bad, but it wasn't outstanding either.

We were leaning more towards a 3.5 rating for this restaurant. We originally came for happy hour to try their Kati rolls, but were informed upon being seated that happy hour pricing only applied at the bar. Instead, we decided to have dinner and ordered from the menu. We began with the samosa chaat, which was a bit underwhelming - it was small and lacked some of the usual toppings. For our main courses, we shared the allepey fish curry, lamb shank curry, tandoori chicken, and paneer masala. Additionally, we ordered 3 garlic naans to share. Overall, we were somewhat disappointed with our experience.

The food at this restaurant was delicious. We opted for takeout since we were only visiting. Unfortunately, they are unable to accommodate any dietary restrictions with customization. Despite this, we still had a great time overall.

In Washington DC after visiting various attractions all day we went to Indian restaurants called Pappe! Every food item on a menu has some kind of twist and fusion but that does not compromise the authentic tastes of Indian food. The place has an amazing raw and authentic ambience. We tried Indian thali and it was awesome.

The food was excellent, I found the flavors to be extremely unique. The jamun was the only let down, though the ice cream made up for it. The service was bad enough to ruin the dining experience. Our waiter was not courteous and couldn?t care less about us.
