The best Indian in Baltimore in a truly beautiful setting.  In the winter they tent the patio and decorate with portable fireplaces and evergreens, and in the summer, the patio opens onto a relaxing urban oasis of a garden.  The food is as lovely as the setting - great Indian classics like malai kofta, tikka masala, jalfrezie, and biryani.  Highly recommend.  Biggest down side is the parking - can be challanging.

Hands down, the best time to go to the Ambassador is on Sundays for its champagne brunch.  
Mimosas flowing, Indian dishes abundant, beautiful dining room, it's great - and it's not too expensive, either (if i remember correctly).   How could you not love something as good as this?

The Ambassador Dining Room is a place you should go if you love Indian food!  The atmosphere is very nice especially in the summer when the have the back open and a beautiful garden.  The Ambassador Dining room would be hard to find if you didn't know about it.  It is on the first floor of a high rise apartment complex.

The vindaloo and chicken tikka masala is wonderful.  The samosas are the best I have had.  Don't forget to order some garlic naan!

Located on the ground floor of a high rise apartment near JHU, you would never know this restaurant existed unless someone recommended it.  Rich dark woods, persian rugs and a terrace spilling into a green garden in the back of the restaurant set the tone of elegance and exclusivity.  The service was immaculate as our tuxedoed waiter tended to our every need.

We started with the meat samosas which were a little greasy and lacked some flavoring but a little sauce solved that problem.  As a main course I ordered the Chicken Madras South Indian style curry made with green chillies and coconut milk which wasn't spicy and very creamy.  I hate creamy sauces and I love spicy so it wasn't really my thing but I know that's how south Indian cuisine is.  My dinner partners were in heaven with their dishes.  I've definitely had better Indian food but the serene atmosphere of the open terrace coupled with the Tudor-style interior rounds out the experience.  A walk in the garden after dinner is a great way to walk off a big tasty meal.
