Tava Fry Modern Indian Bar & Restaurant

The ambience at Tava Fry in Ashburn was nice and the place itself looked clean and welcoming. The service was also fine, likely because it wasn’t very crowded at the time. Unfortunately, the food was disappointing. The dosas were quite dry, and the potato filling in the masala dosa didn’t taste fresh—it seemed like it might have been prepared a few days earlier. The chutneys also didn’t taste fresh, which affected the overall experience. The sambar was decent, but it wasn’t enough to make up for the other issues with the meal. Overall, the atmosphere and service were okay, but the food quality needs improvement, especially the freshness of the dosa fillings and chutneys.

On a Thursday evening, we suddenly started craving some Indian, specifically South Indian, tiffins. We began searching, and we found this post about Tava. Despite being 25 minutes away from Manassas, we thought, let’s go try it. We had low expectations because our last visit to a similar chat place in Chantilly left us disappointed. When we walked in, the ambience was decent. Though the buffet was tucked away in the corner, which made us think it might not be good, to our surprise, the limited tiffin options were all delicious. A standout for any Indian tiffin is the chutney, and their peanut chutney was outstanding. Idli, punugulu, poori, pongal—everything tasted great. While the buffet quantities were limited, they were quick to refill items. One highlight: toward the end, I was waitin

Great service, Amazing food and beautiful ambience at this restaurant. I tried their Gobi Manchurian and Hakka noodles today, and absolutely loved it. I will be back to try their other dishes, they have specials every day, so food items are on a discounted price. The portions are big, which is great value for the meal. The servers Vijay and Priya were so nice and friendly, and they helped me decide which dishes to order. Please don’t pass up on this hidden culinary gem, nestled in the heart of Ashburn 🍽️ 🔥

If you want sweet indian food this is your place. This place never fails to disappoint you. We ordered aloo tikki and it was nothing close to tikki. It was deep fried veg patty. Paneer makhan waala seemed like was dipped in sugar. Malai kofta was ok Am i going to visit this place again. Never ever. Avoid yourself pain of visting this place.

A big shoutout to Kunal Sharma for the amazing cake he made for our 3-year-old daughter! He was recommended by a friend, and he truly exceeded our expectations. We shared a picture of a snowman-themed cake, and he recreated it even better than we imagined. The cake looked absolutely beautiful and tasted just as incredible. All our guests loved it! His pricing is also very competitive compared to places like Tous Les Jours and other fancy bakeries. Highly recommend Kunal for anyone looking for a custom cake that’s both stunning and delicious. Thank you for making our daughter’s day so special! 🎂✨
