Bombay Bistro in Oakton, VA

http://www.bombaybistro.com/ We headed out to Vienna to visit with some friends.  Afterwards, we tried this Indian restaurant out.  It's a pretty decent hike from where we live, but I liked it and the price point was reasonable.   
 Vegetable Samosa with spicy chana and two sauces. ($1.95)
 Chicken Tandoori with salad and rice. ($10.95)  Very flavorful and juicy.
 Saag Ghost. ($12.95) Lamb cooked in mildly spiced spinach.
 Lamb Vindaloo. ($11.95) Lamb cooked in a spicy sauce with potatoes.
Special Vegetarian Thali ($15.95).  Lentils, raita, a puri (puffed bread), mattar paneer (peas and cheese in a tomato curry), palak paneer (spinach and cheese), baingan bharta (roasted eggplant with tomato, onion and spices), and mango with papaya chunks. 
***
The thali was very good, exceptionally filling, and satisfied my urge to try a bit of everything.  Reasonable prices, fairly prompt service, and worth a look if you're out that way on Chain Bridge Road.
