There are plenty of flavors to be celebrated at Rangoli Celebrate India, an Indian food restaurant that made its debut in Manassas in fall 2016. With more than its fair share of five-star reviews on Yelp, Rangoli, which was previously located in Loudon County for more than a decade, serves up some of the most delicious dishes in the area.

If you want to grab a little bit of everything and see what your favorite is, the Saturday buffet comes highly recommended. The price is affordable at only $12.99 per adult or $7.99 per child. The favorite dishes thus far are the juicy lamb vindaloo, the perfectly fluffy fresh naan, and the eggplant curry. Don’t forget to try the desserts. They’re very accommodating of dietary restrictions, and strive to make sure that everyone is welcome and is able to indulge fully.

If you’re in a pinch for time or looking for a cozy night in, check out their take-out menu which you can download off the website. Also, delivery is free within 5 miles of the restaurant!
