A casual indian eatery with fantastic service, great food, and surprisingly affordable prices. I got the chicken tikka masala and plain naan and the naan was so incredibly fresh and fluffy, not overly dense like you get in some other places. The chicken tikka masala was great as well, the curry was a bit thicker than many other places but so much more flavorful that it was great. There was plenty of parking as well, and there's a much bigger plaza next to this one if you need even more parking.

Oh my goodness, this place is incredible. You want to talk about a diamond in the rough, this is definitely the place you have to try. This place is Pakistan type food, but you can also get South Indian food as well. I am Jamaican so I got the goat biryani, and it was so delicious. The spices and seasonings were perfect and the portions are very good sizes. The naan was so delicious and the side of onion and green peppers were fresh and spicy ? ? ? just how I like it. Definitely worth the money, if you are looking for some amazing food you have to try this place. I give 2 thumbs up ????...

Do NOT recommend this place at all!!! Since moving to this newer location, the quality of their food and portions has gone down, yet their prices have gone up. After leaving a review on Yelp the day we got food from them, the owner didn't even bother to respond to our review. Obviously they don't care what customers think !Will definitely relate my experience to friends and family and tell them to avoid this place.

I really like the new location it’s been a long time waiting for them to come back. I think that they’re even better this time around. My experience has been over the top good I love bringing friends so they can experience the chicken wraps.

So much more than Tandoori!Update: Still great food! The reward program is very nice if you are a regular customer. I usually get food to go (whether pre or post pandemic).My only quibble is that the people taking the order usually seem exhausted or otherwise not very happy. They are not rude or mean in any way. Just not as welcoming as you would expect to a repeat customer. Which is too bad because it has made me reconsider giving tips. And I *want* to support this place!Otherwise the food is still heavenly. ?My favorite is definitely the goat kahari!----Great place to eat your favorite Indian and Pakistani dishes: Biryani, Seekh Kabab, Tikka Masala, Meat curries, Saag meats, and Vegetarian curries.They have a great selection of meats: lamb, goat, and of course, chicken. They even have fish.I had the Goat Kahari and the Lamb Curry (they were out of the Lamb Boti) and it was wonderful! Flavorful, not too spicy (although I do like spicy, but this was fine for a first taste), aromatic, yet subtle. The goat was a tad more oily than expected, but still nice. And the naan is just the way naan should be: full of flavor (even the plain version) and chewy, yet not too rubbery. Perfect.Great find! I will be back!Note: I did take out, but the staff was very helpful and friendly.

Not clean and taste wasn’t good either. Cholle Bhature were no where close to any masala cholle.

This is a restaurant that my friends and I have been attending for years. Delicious food and not too long of a wait for a good price. Highly recommend.

No customer service, pricey naan with small cury portions, combo add on is a joke with pickle sized daal, ok food.

It is good but not always. When the right employees on shift, it is great.

I had the chicken wrap, it was $12 including tax. I would give it 2 stars. Lacked flavour and the chicken Tikka could have used more time in the tandoor. The naan was good and it was filling. They had free chai, extra star. Won't be going here any time soon.

Love the paneer and veggie wraps! We frequently order from here.A couple of suggestions though:1. The wrap is packed tight in aluminum foil while the naan is still hot. It is not easy to remove the foil, and tiny pieces of the foil frequently get stuck in the wrap. It would be good to wrap it in parchment paper or something similar first and then in foil2. It will be good to have a whole wheat or multigrain option for the naan.

I love Tandoori Cafe, the owners are such kind and friendly people. The service is extraordinary and they are very thoughtful. The food is 100% zabiha halal. My family has been coming here for years and we love the food. So many flavors and is always great quality. Good price for so much food. I can never get bored of Tandoori Cafe, and if you are ever nearby I very much recommend this place!

So we have been coming to this location for several years and the food is delicious. Butter chicken and the many different flavors of Naan are tasty. Unfortunately this location and like many other restaurants, the price for food has gone up and my family of 5 (2 adults and 3 children) rang up a bill of $120+! So if you're trying to dine on the cheap, I would suggest going elsewhere and reserve this for a date night. Overall, the food is fantastic but can get really pricey really fast!The reason this place doesn't get 5 stars is because the service is really lacking and the wait time for food to be ready is a bit long. Another reason is the cooks behind the counter making the food. My family speaks and understands Spanish very well, so the loud talking of the Spanish speaking cooks is unacceptable. As we were trying to enjoy our Sunday brunch we could hear them using vulgar language and even caught them talking about customers coming in to pick up online orders!I'm being very generous with my rating as the food is really that good but after hearing these cooks talking the way they did, I will never bring my family here to eat again. This place will remain a pick up my food and go. I will come back again to see if this has changed at all and I will update my review at a later date. But as it is now, don't bring your family here unless you don't mind hearing people laughing and get that weird feeling that they are talking about you and your family. More than likely they are talking about you. My advice is to just call in your order and take it home to enjoy it.
