Anant Cuisine of India was absolutely incredible! We had the pleasure of working directly with Mr. Avtar Rathore for catering for both our Hindu wedding ceremony lunch and our evening wedding reception, and we couldn't have been happier with the experience.

From the beginning, it was clear he is an absolute expert in Indian catering and the logistics of feeding a large group at a wedding. There are so many moving pieces on a wedding day, and one of our personal biggest priorities was making sure our guests were well-fed and never wondering when the food was coming. We heavily leaned on Mr. Rathore’s experience and expertise, and he made us feel completely confident that everything would be handled.

For our Hindu ceremony lunch, the food was phenomenal. Everything we tried was delicious; the Shahi Paneer was hands down the best Shahi Paneer we have ever had. It was rich, flavorful, and absolutely top-notch. We also had chai served with lunch, which was a huge hit with our guests!! We heard so many compliments from family and friends about how delicious the meal was.

Then came our evening reception, where the food was (again) beyond amazing. In particular, the Methi Corn was perfection. It is my favorite dish of all time, so I had very high expectations, and Anant absolutely delivered!!!! Also, one of the biggest highlights of the reception was the tandoor, with fresh naan made right there for our guests. The naan was hot, delicious, and incredibly popular. Ultimately, the food spoke for itself. We had guests from both Indian and non-Indian backgrounds, and everyone raved about the food. We still hear compliments about the meals even a month after our wedding!!

If you are looking for Indian catering for a wedding, special event, or any large gathering, Anant Cuisine of India is the only place I would call. We went to the restaurant and did a tasting. We could reach Mr. Rathore by phone and email whenever we needed to discuss headcount or logistics. The food is exceptional, the presentation and service are wonderful, and Mr. Rathore brings the kind of catering knowledge and logistical expertise that makes a huge difference when you're feeding a large group.

Five stars without hesitation. Thank you to Mr. Rathore and the entire Anant Cuisine team for helping make our wedding meals so memorable. You played a huge part in making our wedding special, and we are incredibly grateful!!!!!

My wife and I stopped by Anant in Henrico for lunch today, and once again, they delivered. We’ve been here multiple times, and one of the things I really appreciate is the consistency. Every time we come, the food and service are just as good as the last.

I ordered the chicken tikka masala, while my wife went with the butter chicken. Both were flavorful and delicious, as expected. My one complaint is the amount of chicken you get for the price. At around $20 for an entrée, it feels like you get a lot of gravy but not quite enough chicken to really justify the price. I’d love to see a more generous portion of chicken.

That said, overall, Anant is still a great spot. The staff is always friendly, attentive, and welcoming, and the food has been consistently good every time we’ve visited.

Everything on the menu is halal
