Woodlands is a delight for everyone's senses


If you haven't been to the Woodlands Indian Restaurant in Langley Park for the lunch buffet you should just pack up your friends and family and head over there right now. We've been going for years and continue to be impressed and delighted by our meals here.

The Woodlands is a pure vegetarian South Indian restaurant, but I have yet to meet a carnivore who wouldn't delight in this array of food and sensation. When eating here you can tell that each dish is created from a unique blend of herbs and spices, coconut, chilies, vegetables and all of the other tasty stuff which makes Indian food so wonderful.


There are roughly 18 dishes plus 4 breads, 2 soups and a couple of desserts.


I adore the masala dosai, a thin lentil crepe filed with curried potatoes and onions you dip into one of tangy broths.

There are plenty of children and babies feel welcome as this is a family experience. The buffet is best on the weekends when there are more options and the Indian families are there with their saris and there are plenty of children. It's $10.95 for the buffet on the weekends, lassi and masala tea extra but the dosai are included.


Baby friendly? Yes, for children of any age. Bigger kids can wander around and even our little one liked the look of the buffet. Lots of colors and smells and sounds. There isn't a changing table, but there are high chairs and the staff dotes on children. Plus, the buffet option is perfect for parents who are "alternating" eating. Nothing ever gets cold....
