We returned to Ajanta for the fourth or fifth time and were not disappointed. The food was very good overall, with the shrimp and duck curries being the highlights. The samosas did not seem fresh, however. Although the servers were generally courteous, by the end of the meal we felt that they were rushing us out.

We love Indian food and this is our favorite Indian restaurant in the area. Even though there are several much closer to us, if we have the time, we will go across town to eat at Ajanta.

We really enjoyed Ajanta. We ordered the tasting menu ($30 a person) and loved every dish.Specifically the chicken in coconut was excellent, as were the scallops. There was plenty of food for both of us and we left full and happy.
