The lunch special at Tandoori Kitchen is a culinary triumph, offering outstanding value at just $12. Each dish masterfully encapsulates the richness of Indian cuisine, with perfectly balanced flavors and generous portions.

The food was delicious but it was very spicy. I grew up in an Indian household, and I like to think I’m well accustomed to spice, but this food still had my nose running and got me mouth breathing. We ordered everything as medium spice level. The prices were very reasonable, especially off the lunch menu. And the portions were large. I will be going back, but next time I will be ordering mild as the spice level.

If you are from Indian subcontinent you will be seriously disappointed. We tried tandoori prawn, tandoori wings but they were not put in tandoor or oven at all. The spices and veggies in these two dishes were raw and we could smell the raw spices. The veggie chowmein was the most disappointing, it was full of tomato sauce and i have never such a disastrous chowmein ever. The biriyani was little better but again had a sour taste and the rice was all smashed up. The raita was not fresh and came right from their fridge. The cook doesn’t know how to cook indian dishes for sure. The service was equally poor, not adequately staffed and the staff definitely did not know how to serve the customer. Overall a disappointing experience. I would find it difficult to recommend this restaurant to anyone and definitely not visiting again. Don’t be deceived by the rating.

Pros an Cons: This restaurant is next door to our Church (in the same parking lot) but we have never tried because we go to the 9:00 a.m. service and the restaurant does not open until 11:00 a.m.. Today however, we went to the 11:00 Service and decided to give it a try.

The dedication to using fresh ingredients and traditional cooking techniques was evident in every dish. The flavors were bold and aromatic, leaving a lasting impression on my taste buds. What truly stood out was the restaurant’s commitment to accommodating dietary preferences, with an impressive range of vegetarian and vegan options that did not compromise on taste. The portion sizes were generous, and the prices were reasonable for the quality of food served. Whether you are a spice aficionado or simply curious about exploring new culinary horizons, Tandoori Kitchen is a hidden gem that will transport you on a culinary journey through the vibrant flavors of India.

I ordered take out for dinner and was pretty pleased with it. I got the somosas, chicken tikka masala (medium spice), and garlic naan. It came out to about $30, but was enough food for two of us to share.

Food was great. Spiciness definitely geared to American tastes – HOT was only about a 6 an a 1-10 scale, but outstanding flavors. Service was a little bit lacking, but willing to give the benefit of the doubt since we had a party of 9. Friendly and pleasant staff. Would prefer the decor to have some more fabrics & soft surfaces to muffle sounds & echoes.

This little gem doesn’t have much ambience but the FOOD IS TERRIFIC!! My boyfriend & I had dinner on Sunday, 7/2/23. We ordered the shrimp Biryani, plain Naan, and the Mixed Grill Kabob, which included shrimp, chicken, lamb & grilled veggies – wow everything was delicious! Food is reasonably priced – try it out!

Came here for lunch for the first time today. I enjoyed a delicious tikka chicken masala! The lunch special came with 2 dipping sauces, chickpeas, rice and a sort of vegetable fritter, I think. So much food for a great price! The waiter and all staff were so friendly and accommodating. I will be back!
