I ordered the curry chicken with aloo naan. I was greeted with a smile, the food came out so quickly I was astounded. I expected more spice from the curry but it was smooth and mixed with onions and peppers, very tasty. The aloo naan was amazing moist, like naan I have never had before. Included was a nice portion of yoghurt and a picked item that I dumped in the curry that really heighten the flavor. I had enough food for 2.5 meals. I will return again.

I'm so glad this restaurant is open again. The food is wonderful,
and there are great vegetarian and vegan choices. They also serve meat dishes. I have eaten at most of the Indian restaurants in Howard County, and this is my family's favorite. I hope they will eventually bring back the buffet which we always loved because of the ever changing choices they offered. We have been eating ate Mango Grove for years and the staff has always been helpful and polite. Currently we are ordering to go dishes and they are as great as we remember.

I’m not sure what changed, but Mango Grove is not the same since the renovation. It was by far my favorite place, but the food is bland now. The tikka masala has a strong tomato taste. Service is always A+, but I’m moving on to a place in Laurel that I found.

It was our worst experience in our life. We came to celebrate our grandma's 80th birthday. The owner ruined everything. He is the rudest man I will ever see in my life. My grandma did not like the rice she took in her plate and she could not complete it. The owner was mad that she wasted his food. My dad tried to convince him and told him that she did not like it so she could not finish it. He started yelling in front of other customers and told us not to come to his restuarant anymore. I saw tears rolling out of my grandma's eyes and she thinks it was all her fault. I really wanted to punch him on his face and walk out for making my grandma cry. But my dad was so patient and he calmed all of us. Even though we did not complete our lunch my dad was so good to pay for it and also thanked the owner. I really want to thank whole heartedly the employee and the neighbouring customers who came to us and appologized the behaviour of the owner. Please give a thumbs up below if anyone of you had a bad experience with the owner of this restuarant.

I am thrilled to bits, and my tastebuds are dancing.. Mango Grove is open!!! I ordered the Vegetarian Lunchbox and the Kabab Lunchbox. The food is even more delicious and keeps its unique signature flavours in its food.
Being gluten free I am unable to savour the samosas or naan bread. “No problem” says chef and owner Rohit Chawla, a portion of pakoras and cheela bread was substituted.. all gluten free. And delicious.
If you haven’t ordered from Mango Grove yet.. you are missing out.
Welcome back.
Sorry no photos... food didn’t make it past my camera... the aromas overcame me. Happy tastebuds, satisfied stomach.

Great food, great hospitality, plenty of space. Have been here multiple times, food has always been excellent. Our server on the day was quick, yet patient with our large group. Will definitely return.

The tag for this restaurant is incorrect. It's open for take out as well as eat in as I ate in today with a dear friend. The food is just as delicious, the service is great. There appears to be no change since the explosion (not their doing!) from before the pandemic. They are great people with great cuisine. Please go and support them!

My go-to Indian Restaurant in Columbia. Why, because the service is professional and friendly. - perfect. The Host (Peter) is so friendly and helpful, he can help you choose the perfect dish, can customize it to your taste (helpful) and friendly as well, oh and amusing too. ( says he's handsome too). Make sure to chat with him.
The best Indian menu for carnivores & vegetarian's alike. The offer both, which me & the wife are of both. VEGETARIANS - Take note - way up their for you culinary desires. It's always fresh and flavorful, made spicy to mild and all the usual's and some Chef specialty dishes invented in-house. They make Doh Suh - only Indian place around that does that, if you've never had, make it a must try.
I just like the taste, the service and the prices. The atmosphere is nice also and during the week, they offer the famous all-u-can-eat buffet style, which is a great value and you can try many of their dishes as well.
If we were friends, I would probably give you a gift certificate to Mango Grove as a birthday gift.

We visited for lunch and to our surprise we saw outstanding value with excellent service and environment ambiance all in one place. Clean, very well organized food with proper labels made it easy to see what to pick and each item was fresh including even side items. Raja, one of the customer service person made us feel very comfortable and understood our needs. You find very few people who relate and help their customers. We ate first time and will be back again with other family members.

Had a wonderful buffet lunch here. Before I speak about the food, the staff is wonderful. They took me though the buffet and showed me what I could or could not eat with my diet restrictions. This was no ordinary Saturday buffet. It is mainly vegetarian. However, they had two meats (very good) and a fried tilapia which was outstanding. They had interesting choices on the buffet like a spicy okra dish. Little things excellent too like their rasaa soup. Other places just salt it up but this was delicately flavored. I strongly recommend it. I rarely weigh in on others reviews but over the years I would estimate I have eaten here twenty times. I have never had anyone be rude in the restaurant.

Great tasting Indian food. Manglorian Eggplant Curry is fantastic. The Vegetable Samosa is so delicious that I can't get enough. You won't be disappointed...

Not sure if the Owner of this restaurant has an unprofessional and a very low attitude manager who does not know the basic way of handling customers. He should be either trained well or the owner needs to hire a new manager asap.
Harassing our family by making multiple trips asking why so less order and dictating us to order more was a total unnecessary business for this worst supervisor attitude..
The food was definetely good and i am feeling very sorry for the owner to have this kind of supervisor handling his business..

Basic knowledge like main course needs to be served after appetizers and not before them was lacking. Broken Glass in Dal , cold breads and poor service were the highlights. This was after we foolishly agreed to pre-pay double the amount they normal charge ! Dhabas in India are better then this so called restaurant !

Good place for Indian vegetarian food. They have 2 separate kitchens - one for vegetarian, and a separate one for non-vegetarian food. I had lentils and rice, which were decent. Service was a little forgetful- they only had 5-7 tables busy but it took a lot of work to flag the service staff for drink refills, and the check.
