While I would tag this as Indian restaurant for their choices on the menu, I would definitely call this as an Indian restaurant which caters to the needs of an american tongue. Very mild and would not fall under any indian category of spices. The ambience is good. If you are a spice lover and want to have a hang... More

Three of us went for lunch-ate plenty and we have leftovers. The lentil soup was so perfect. Lamb Roganjosh, Chicken tikka masala and Salmon Vindaloo were all very nice. Cannot believe it that for $11/- a dish one gets soup, main course, naan, rice and dessert along with nice ambiance and excellent service!

Went on a Friday night. The place was busy, but not totally full. Service was excellent - prices reasonable. Food was great. We had a tandoori sampler for an Appetizer, slightly dry, but good with the three sauces you get with Naan as a starter. I had chicken tikka marsala, which was yummy and my BF had lamb patia which...

One of the better Indian restaurants in RIC. Good service, with good recommendations if you ask. The food has always been well prepared. Nice atmosphere. Easy parking.

My husband and I were passing through Short Pump on our way back home from Williamsburg, and decided to stop at Anokha for lunch. We have eaten at many Indian restaurants over the years, but I have to say, this is one of the best ones out there! The lunch specials included a long list of different entrees, as well... More

Went to Anokha with some friends for Lunch, they have good menu which says complimentary dish and sweet with any order. First we have to wait for around 40 minutes to get the food after placing our orders and when it came they did not serve the side dish to everybody which is supposed to be complimentary to all, where...

My husband and I recently visited Anokha on a Saturday afternoon. Service was prompt and friendly. Parking was easy (in the parking lot next to the restaurant). The restaurant was filled with customers of various cultural backgrounds and varied family make-up (couples, young families with children, older adult groups, etc). We tasted a variety of the dishes, including the appetizer... More

We were in mood for good Indian food and upon Internet search around Richmond area, we noticed high rating for Anokha. Well with my other colleagues we ended up at Anokha. It was total disappointment not only the service but also quality of food. For example we ordered vegetable item, it had only potato with some green bell pepper and... More

We recently went to Anokha restaurant, it was Sunday night. There were few indians and I was in little bit delima about my decision to come here. We ordered VEG dishes, service was good and I must food taste was also good. Though, naan could have been little bit better. Overall, my experience was good, and I will visit again.
