I do not know if they have a buffet, but I do not like Mehak, the indian place in Chinatown.

No buffet, but Rasika is close by.

Also, I think Nirvana is near Chinatown (but I am not sure, and I haven't been). Vegetarian.

Nirvana is at 1810 K St; I don't know if they have a buffet or not.

The only Indian buffet I can think of is Polo Indian Club (or whatever) on Connecticut and S, and I don't much love it.

Nirvana does indeed have a buffet, quite a good one I might add. It is not, however, near chinatown.

Mehak is really close but no buffet. I have had lunch there many times and the food is really good.

Nirvana is a bit of walk. Polo Club, I got to get on a metro for and I really don't care for there food. So it looks like I have to widen my search. How about a couple of metro stops? Does that increase my options?

I miss the many choice of good places (indian buffet wise) that I had in the burbs. There has to be some decent ones near by.

I think the Ascot has a pretty good buffet at lunch but, alas, it's on 17th & L Street, NW. We have a rather multi-national office and I've often dined there with people from India who really like and it's close to the blue line (Farragut West) on 17th and I.
