Tandoor Indian Cuisine, 6300 N. Wickham Rd. Melbourne, FL 32940
3- Stars
Many people take up golf upon retirement, while others shuffleboard at a retirement village (gestures at the entire state). What did I do? I took it upon myself to provide unadulterated food reviews for the Space Coast of FL at no charge to you, the reader. I'm just that kind of guy. Since I didn't have a tee time, I tended to lounge around a bit, wrapped snugly in the family counterpane. However, the name generator told me it was time to get to work. Dislodging myself from the spread, I grabbed my keys and headed north to the Pineda Causeway (thereby putting going OTB off for as long as feasibly possible). Just north of the Causeway on Wickham Road sits the Indian Buffet Restaurant, Tandoor Indian Cuisine.
Call me "late to the party," but I had no idea we had two Indian restaurants in the county, let alone the four I found out now exist. For a comparison, this one is the Walmart of Indian Restaurants so far reviewed. The entire service staff is Vietnamese, the kitchen was 100% Mexican and the owner was Indian. Not one word of English was heard nor spoken. If they put in self-serve checkout, you would have Walmart.
Our service pro today was a Vietnamese chap going by the name of Llama. As Llama's English skills were on par with my Vietnamese skills, we worked out a point-and-grunt method of ordering that went without a hitch. How hard is it to understand "The Buffet"?
This Indian buffet was filled with the ever-present and famous Tandoori chicken, butter chicken, sang, and warm naan, along with several vegetarian dishes in various curries. I never once in a million years would have guessed I would be reviewing and comparing Indian restaurants in Bree-vard County, FL. But, as the man said, "The times, they are a-changin'."
The Big Boy says, "There are better Indian buffets around; however if you are stuck in Suntree with the cold sweats for an adequate curry, stop in."

Fantastic food! I like to go at least once a month. Med spice is good. Indian spice is deadly. I think the wife gets Indian hot so I won’t eat hers. But it’s so good I will still nibble on hers as well.Vegetarian options: Had the veggie samosas. I thought they were better than the Chicken samosas.
The best go to for authentic Indian Cuisine in Brevard County. Worth the drive and leave full and plenty of leftovers. Delicious!

We went for the buffet, the goat curry was very good. The service was fine and attentive. The overall experience was good food at a decent price. Traditional Indian buffet offerings, spinach paneer, tandoori, vegi Korea, etc. We very much enjoyed ourselves and will be going back.
The food was terrific. The service was not good! We got forgotten about and had to go up to pay. Going to do take out from now on.

Excellent food. Decor lacks any level of opulence. More like a diner that happens to serve Indian food.
