“ This restaurant is located on the second level of Tyson Mall. The food here tastes better than other Indian restaurants in the mall. We tried the Sarso Ka Saag with Makki Ki Roti, and it tasted authentic with the roti being well-cooked. We also tried the Bombay Chaat/Dahi Puri, which was decent and worth a try. There are other vegetarian options available, but I would definitely recommend the Sarso Ka Saag and Makki Ki Roti. ”

“ The vegetable samosa is delicious, and the lamb roll is absolutely divine. Fantastic food at a great price. ”

“ A small little restaurant tucked in the corner of the Tysons Corner Center. It’s easy to not know it exists while you’re inside the mall, but the food is so delicious. I always get the paneer tikka roll because I’m a sucker for paneer and I ask for it spicy since I like spicy food. The flavor, the portion, the spice level - all absolutely amazing. There isn’t much seating available, but it’s the first thing you see when you enter the doors if you park in Garage C on the west side (opposite AMC). If you’re at the mall and are craving amazing Indian food without the prices of a sit-down restaurant, this place is where it’s at! In fact I come here often specifically to order take out. ”

“ As food doctrines go, Lahori cuisine is a category on its own. Hailing from the once capital of the state of Punjab in undivided India, it was influenced over centuries by the many empires that ruled it from Persian to Mughal to Sikh to British and was enriched in each period. Independent India claims many who hail from the city and have carried it's rich culture and food traditions forward into the modern age while maintaining that unique combination of flavor, texture, style and hospitality that still stands out among Punjabi cuisine and is revered in both India and Pakistan alike. I give this introduction because no matter where you find this taste, you can be assured of a memorable meal that is a feast for the eyes and palette. Naan & Beyond may be a mere hole in the wall joint tucked in a quiet corner of the Tysons Corner mall in McLean, Virginia, but it is run by a passionate family that marks its roots in Lahore who were displaced to India after the Partition and have made the U.S. their home for the last 40 years. I found myself at Naan & Beyond yesterday at dinner time while casually strolling the mall and noticed the Tawa Paratha Flatbread on the menu . Even though this is breakfast food, I immediately felt a craving for it and ordered an Aloo (potato) and Gobi (cauliflower) plate along with a masala chai. It took only a few minutes to arrive, each plate with one very large paratha topped with a small stick of butter with mango pickle and yoghurt raita on the side. Each flatbread was stuffed to the edges with the spiced stuffing and had been fried to perfection on the tawa (grill) to give that beautiful look with scattered spots of charring on the surface. The art of the paratha is in the chefs ability to keep the layers of flour holding the stuffing to the absolute thinnest possible allowing the ghee to penetrate inside and cook the stuffing. It was perfect! ...brought back memories of my mother's cooking at home with each bite providing a mouthful of indulgence that was enhanced with the butter, pickle, and the rich and creamy cumin and fenugreek flavored raita. The lightly sweetened masala chai was the perfect companion to the meal as I slurped it between bites. The menu has several other options including their signature naan rolls, combination boxes, and some fusion dishes as well as mango lassi...all of which I intend to go back and try, i.e. if I can hold myself back from re-ordering the parathas again! Highly recommended!!! ”

“ Had lunch here after church on Father’s Day and really enjoyed it! The food was delicious—fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. Aman and Aunty Ji at the counter were incredibly soft spoken and kind, which made the experience even better. Great service and warm vibes. I’d definitely go back again! ”

“ If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! This tiny gem tucked inside the mall is nothing short of a miracle for someone like me who craves authentic saag and roti. It’s a taste of home I thought I’d never find outside my mom’s kitchen. The food here isn’t just delicious—it’s an experience. The saag was perfectly seasoned, rich, and creamy, while the makki roti (more like missi roti) was fresh, soft, and just the right balance of texture and flavor. And then came the butter and pickle—a perfect touch that made the whole meal feel like a warm hug from Punjab. I actually had tears in my eyes while eating because it brought back so many memories. The guy at the counter was incredibly nice—so humble, welcoming, and genuinely invested in making sure everything was perfect. His kindness made the experience even more special. I’m willing to make the one-hour drive every weekend just to relive that bliss. It’s worth every mile, every second, and every bite. Truly a hidden treasure that I can’t recommend enough. ”

“ On the run in Tyson? No problem! My samosas came out hot and crispy, the fillings was well marinated and bread wasn’t overpowering. Very details oriented small business, specifically located inside the mall with this quality is such a luck for us those who been give up hope on the food court they have downstair. Will stop by more often and will definitely recommend friend and families to this place ”

“ Best food in Tyson Mall period. Their Butter Chicken combo (#3) was so tasty. I added the Garlic Naan, which was fresh and warm. I am so happy I found this place. Give it a try you wont regret it ”
