We’ve been making the drive up here from Northern Virginia for a few years now and every time , I’m grateful that the taste has been consistently good. Grateful because most other places around here start out being good and then go downhill quickly! Not this place. The closest thing to authentic South Indian food around here / you can’t go wrong with the rava dosa, the uttapam, the rasa vada (crunchy and the perfect rasam) – even their Chole batura is so good! Finish it all with the perfect filter coffee .
We’ll hopefully be coming here for years in the future too!

Authentic, original South Indian restaurant with a variety of vegetarian options. We had the pakoras, poori, woodland special dosa, noodles for kids along with Lassi. Everything was delicious and the service was quick. Only complaint was that the Chai ordered at the end was a bit watered down.

We recently hosted our daughter’s Arangetram and chose Woodlands in Gaithersburg to cater the event — and we couldn’t be happier with that decision! The event was held at a local school auditorium with some logistical challenges, including two separate servings: a round of snacks during a 15-minute intermission and a full dinner at the conclusion of the performance.
The team from Woodlands, led by Anand, handled everything with incredible professionalism, efficiency, and grace. During the brief intermission, they seamlessly served over 100 guests, ensuring everyone was taken care of promptly while maintaining order and helping guests return to their seats on time. It was a tall ask, and they executed it flawlessly.
Following the performance, they presented an entirely different, beautifully prepared dinner spread. Every item was fresh, flavorful, and thoroughly enjoyed by our guests. Beyond just the food, their coordination with the school staff for setup and cleanup was smooth and thoughtful. They even neatly packed up the leftovers for us to take home — a small but deeply appreciated gesture.
We are so grateful to Anand and the entire Woodlands team for their dedication, attention to detail, and exceptional service that made our special day all the more memorable. Highly recommend them for any event — big or small — if you’re looking for authentic, delicious South Indian cuisine paired with outstanding service.
Thank you, Woodlands, for being such an integral part of our celebration!

I had an amazing experience at this vegetarian Indian restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious — full of flavor, fresh, and perfectly seasoned. Every dish tasted authentic and comforting. The service was just as impressive. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for great vegetarian Indian food and excellent service. I’ll definitely be coming back!

This place is special – excellent service and food, lots of parking, upscale but still casual atmosphere and wonderful staff.
We had the dosas, bhel puri and masala tea and a saffron halwa for dessert. We would have all of this again it was all so good. They kept asking us if we wanted more condiments, more sambar and made us feel that we were taken care of. They also cleaned the table after the appetizer, and after the meal before dessert was brought, so each course was served beautifully

We had an excellent experience at Woodlands Restaurant (Pure Veg) in Gaithersburg! We ordered the Royal Thali, Rava Dosa, Medu Vada, and Potato Vada—everything was absolutely delicious and full of authentic South Indian flavor. The service was great, and the ambience added to the overall experience with its warm and welcoming vibe.
To make it even better, they gave us a complimentary mango-flavored dessert, which was a delightful surprise and the perfect finish to the meal. Highly recommend this place for anyone craving high-quality vegetarian Indian food in the area!

Great dosa, great bhature, AMAZING desserts (the best take on classic Indian desserts, especially the rasmali and vanilla ice cream)

Dear Anand, thank you very much for making our friend’s milestone birthday celebration such a grand success today 1/31/2026. The different chats that you made for us was very delicious and special thanks for making the Masal puri exclusively for us since our friend likes it. You personally made sure and served the food to all us. Thanks again for your service and hospitality.

We recently decided to indulge in some South Indian cuisine and opted for Woodlands, drawn by its high ratings.
We arrived around 6 pm and found the ambiance pleasant, with the restaurant not too crowded. We were seated at a central table and assumed it was BYOB, as is typical with many Indian restaurants. However, Woodlands occupies a middle ground, offering beer and wine but no BYOB or hard liquor like whiskey or rum. I ordered a Heineken, while my sister enjoyed buttermilk, my son had a Coke, and my wife opted for water, no ice.
A standout feature was their accommodation of my wife’s Swaminarayan diet (no onion, no garlic). The staff was more than happy to tailor any dish accordingly.
For appetizers, we ordered Mix Bhajjias (no onion, no garlic), Onion Bhajjias, and Paalak Chaat. The Onion Bhajjias were perfectly crispy, and the Paalak Chaat was a delightful hit, especially with my sister – it was crunchy and full of flavor. The Mix Bhajjias, though filling, were also quite good. Lakshman, who delivered the appetizers, was friendly and pleasant throughout.
Theresa, our waitress, seemed a bit confused when I asked about whiskey and brought over Sharof, a senior staff member, who politely explained their alcohol policy—beer and wine only, no outside alcohol allowed. His professionalism and assurance regarding the Swaminarayan diet options made us feel very comfortable.
While the food was excellent, the service had some delays. It took quite a while for my Heineken to arrive, even after reminding the staff three times in twenty minutes.
For the main course, I ordered Onion and Peas Oothappam, my sister went with Puri-Bhaaji, my son had the Paneer Dosa, and my wife ordered the Swaminarayan Butter Masala Dosa. The Puri-Bhaaji was fantastic, with fluffy puris and flavorful bhaaji. My son’s Paneer Dosa was creatively filled with paneer bhurji, which added a nice twist to the classic dish. Unfortunately, my Oothappam came with tomatoes instead of onions, though the staff promptly corrected the mistake. However, by the time my dish arrived, the rest of the group had already finished their meals, which was a bit frustrating.
Additionally, I asked for sugar with my dosa and had to make multiple requests before it finally arrived, which contributed to my decision to give a 4-star rating instead of 5.
Overall, the food was exceptional, and the staff was warm and accommodating, but the service could use some fine-tuning. I still highly recommend Woodlands for a satisfying South Indian meal.
