The food is great, some of the best Indian food I've had in a while. For drinks, I'd pass on the Chili Mantra, it tasted like a salt bomb. ???? The Mango Gimlet my bf got, however, was delicious.

LOVE IT!! Love love love it!!! The chaata= meh. It was ok but I'd never order it again. For the main dish I had a chefs special combination of the rara lamb and the lamb stew - it was amazing!

Claude Harrison

Enjoy whatever chaat is served. It will blow your socks off. The shrimp konkani is fla forkful, and not overly spicy . Nice wine list ... try the gruner veltliner. Matches well with the food.

Esquire: Because spice, hospitality , and wine aren’t luxuries—they’re essentials. Because this unassuming, unexpected jewel in a VA mall is one of the very best Indian restaurants in America

Syd Vicious

This place is incredible. If you don't enjoy your experience here than you must hate Indian food . The staff is awesome and you never get what your order because they pick something better

Raj Mehta

Hands down, best Indian restaurant I have been in the US! Great ambience, welcoming service and yes, they make food Indian Indian if you ask for. "Daal tadka maarke!"

Veronica McCall

My husband received a gift card for Christmas so he & I - - having NEVER eaten Indian food before - - had lunch there this week!! The food AND service was EXTRAORDINARY!! Thanks Lehja !!

Akshay Anikhindi

Lemon has the best traditional Indian food , but Lehja has the best modern take on Indian food I've ever had. It's like Richmond's Rasika.

Marco Howell

Get the Garlic naan and chatt for apps. Try the andhra chicken and aam-anar lamb for main. And must have chocolate fondant for dessert .

RVANews

For dinner try the Goan Lamb Vin d’alho. The meat is extraordinarily tender and well-seasoned, while the chili-tomato sauce demands an order of naan to soak up what’s left behind.

Lehja is probably my favorite Indian restaurant on the West End. Great service, great food, friendly and good local beers on tap .

Wonderful I really like to come to this place cleaning and they r very nice

Kyle Macey

The naan is good but other food is okay. Not bad for a mall restaurant . Service is uncoordinated: I was asked for my order by several wait staff . The décor and atmosphere is relaxing & delightful.

Brian

The Goan lamb vin d’ alho and goat cheese naan are top of my list!

Ketan Raturi

Some of the best Indian fusion I've ever had. Make sure to try a lamb dish and get the kulfi for dessert . I just came in my pants a little.

Meredith Hertzler

The Mango Gimlet is so delicious, you'll want to order 10.

Dwayne Spiller

The coconut lemongrass chicken is awesome. The chakka chick pea dish is a great starter also.
