In Arlington near Courthouse there's a "fast food" type Indian place that's been there forever called Delhi Dha Ba - it's decent, not out of this world.
In Clarendon near the Barnes and Noble there's "Tandoori Nights" - as I recall it was fairly expensive and the food was mediocre, but nice atmosphere.
I agree with the other poster who said a lot of the good Indian places are further out. I like:
Jaipur Royal Indian Cuisine - near Fairfax Circle (in Circle Towers)
Preet Palace - Centreville
Angeethi - Herndon
