I think the best way to experience Indian food for the first time is by trying a buffet. MG's lunchtime buffet is reasonably priced and conveniently located in the heart of Mt. Vernon. Service is lacking a bit, but the lunchtime crowds tend to overwhelm the servers. The nan is excellent, and the cucumber and mango chutneys are superb. Mughal is a reliable favorite of mine for good Indian food at a fair price.
