Hours & directions

Finding us

We're in the Langley Park Shopping Center at New Hampshire Ave near University Blvd. Look for BITES Food Court + Bar, and Ananda Kitchen is inside. There's free parking in the lot.

We're a few minutes from College Park, Takoma Park, Silver Spring, Adelphi, Chillum and Hyattsville.

Ordering

Walk up to the counter, or order online and pick up. Most Ananda Kitchen orders are ready in about 30 minutes.

Know before you go

Ananda Kitchen is a counter-service kitchen inside a food hall, not a sit-down restaurant. Here's what that means:

• Order and pay at the counter. Want something else after you sit down? Just head back to the counter and add it.
• We'll usually run your food out to you. It's not full table service, just a quick drop-off when your order is ready. There are often water pitchers out, and you can always ask for water.
• Shared food hall seating. You'll eat alongside guests of Charleys, SmoothieFRESH and the BITES Bar. There's music and TVs, and it can get loud when it's busy.
• The food is the focus. Dosas are cooked to order, and our sambar and chutneys are made in house every day.
• Want it quieter? Come between meals. Right after we open (around 11:30am) and mid-afternoon (about 2 to 4pm) are usually calm. It's busiest at lunch and again from about 7pm.
• Rather eat at home? Order online for pickup. Most orders are ready in about 30 minutes.

Think of us as a casual spot for really good South Indian food, not a quiet, white-tablecloth dinner.
