Wednesday 7pm Met a friend and her local crew on one of my visits from NYC . I was excited to have Indian food in DC especially seeing all the intl food options not easily accessible within the Manhattan confines including Ethiopian restaurants.
Soooo overrated
With one exception, I found the staff to be unresponsive and even rude. Food was just ok. The lamb chops were overdone, tough, and overpriced. The bread was mostly good, but again, overpriced. The inside dining area is so loud, it’s nearly impossib

Warning, the acoustics inside are horrible! There were three other parties inside, about 3-4 people at each table, so it was kinda of empty but it was sooo loud. I can't imagine how loud it would be if it's busy/all tables are full. I would

Cute spot and great food/drinks! We came here during H St Festival so it was pretty busy/crowded but we found a spot at the bar. We enjoyed the tacos ,Momo, and burrata. Overall all were great but we felt that for the price the Momo fell a bit short.

This place is a family favorite which was an early winner with our vegetarian teen daughter. Unique cocktails that don't over-try, clean flavors and spices are fragrant. Servers are seasoned veterans who value the vibe of their establishment. S
Great space with flavorful bites.
We sat at the bar and enjoyed great drinks and some apps. Definitely need to go back to try more.
My friends and I came here for DC Restaurant Week.
We ordered 1 of each app (1 per person, 5 of us) to try all of them and for entrees, the lamb shank, chicken tikka masala, paneer pesto tikka, and nimbu macchi. The appetizers were all delicious, especially the spicy duck kebab and bison momo - but

Went here last weekend, hoping to finally find a good Indian restaurant in the DC area. Overall we were disappointed with the food. Given that we've never thought that highly of food at Rasika, perhaps this isn't surprising since I believe

Best of the best.
The food, the vibe, the drinks. It's a neighborhood favorite with incredible lamb, lentils with burrata, momo dumplings, scallops, and naan.
Really enjoyed our visit to Daru.

Great food: What amazing flavor!
Restaurant is a five star hands down. The food was excellent, the service was great. If you like Indian food, you'll love it, if you don't know Indian food, you'll love it even more. Lots of surprises, everything has great flavor, good
FABULOUS!!!
This was one of those experiences that you only stumble upon once in a great while. The food was beyond fabulous! My wife and I both had a sweet potato appraiser which was flavored with mysterious and intriguing Indian spices and totally wonderful. M
Must visit restaurant!
A must visit restaurant that has won many awards because of the amazing food and drinks. Neighborhood favorite that’s consistently good.
One of the best DC restaurants in my opinion.
Very intimate and cozy and elegant. Not flashy like other dc places. The food is some of the best I've ever tasted, flavorful and transcendent. Service was impeccable and well catered to our table.
The tikka masala is amazing.
The bread basket never disappoints. Service is always so friendly and the food comes quickly. Cocktails are fun and unique. Desserts are creative. What's not to love? This is such a staple in the neighborhood and I'm so glad Dante brings us these cul

A few people recommended Daru to me, so I checked it out with a friend this past Friday evening. I suggest making a reservation in advance so you for sure have a table when you show up. Daru is a bit far and not really metro accessible, but it's wort

Had dinner here with friends.
We had a wonderful night. The service was great, and our waitress offered an overview of the menu and favorites without me having to ask-- I really appreciated this. The inside of the restaurant is small, intimate, and ambient. Chai-Teani - Delicio
Terrible interaction cancelling a reservation.
We notified the restaurant that a member of our party had tested positive for COVID, and then they proceeded to charge us a no show fee and implied we should've come anyway. Owner was incredibly rude over the phone.

It is hard to churn out better Indian food than the juggernaut called Rasika (both locations) does, but, in my humble opinion, Daru accomplishes this! This is high praise from a huge fan of Indian food, first, and Rasika, second. The food is fantast
I enjoyed the food.
It was surprisingly a lot so we got full fast. Good atmosphere and service too!
Food was delicious.
Make sure you have reservations. Staff was very friendly and helpful. We got the lamb, chicken, sweet potato appetizer, naan, and eggplant. I was pleased, thought the price was reasonable. I would highly recommend. The ambiance was pleasant and cozy.
We had a wonderful anniversary dinner at Daru.
We had the dahi puri, bison momo and scallops for starters and all were excellent. Then we had the lamb chops (2), butter chicken, and bread basket. The lamb chops were divine I still think about them, best item on the menu. The butter chicken tasted
Great place .
Very different kind of food not your typical Indian menu .We ordered lamb shank , Fish Paturi , Bodon Momo, Baingsn Paneer Bhurji, Sunchoke, Bread basket, Dal Burrata . Mango Tango , Orar laddo, Chsi Teani Chardonnay. I can't say enough this place is
Amazing Indian.
Some of the best in town. Also excellent cocktails and service. Ambiance is good mid-range; approachable, casual enough without being haughty.

Supongamos que Peter tiene una excelente mañana y decide invitar a sus tres amigos a Daru Washington a las 6 PM ese mismo día.
Revisa la página web del restaurante y ve que no hay reservaciones disponibles. Luego consulta la página de Daru Washington en AppointmentTrader, pero tampoco encuentra publicaciones de usuarios.

Peter puede colocar una puja en AppointmentTrader, que sirve como recompensa para cualquier miembro de la comunidad que decida trabajar para conseguir la reserva. AT entonces notifica a usuarios experimentados que podrían ayudar.
Proceso paso a paso
1.) Establecer una recompensa (puja)

* FamousStation67, un usuario experimentado de AT, tiene un historial comprobado obteniendo reservaciones exitosamente y pocas solicitudes de reembolso; recibe una notificación sobre la puja de Peter de $200.
* FamousStation67 acepta la puja, es decir, ahora trabajará para conseguir la reserva.

3.) Encontrando la reservación
* FamousStation67 ahora usa sus contactos en Daru Washington para asegurar la mesa.

4.) Pago y protección
* Una vez asegurada la reserva, FamousStation67 recibe la recompensa de $200, que se acredita al saldo de AT de FamousStation67, donde los usuarios gestionan sus propios fondos y pueden retirar mediante opciones como transferencia bancaria, PayPal o Zelle.
