Obviously I should have taken a picture before, but I could not wait to eat! Everything about my experience at Tandoori Flame was great. The goat Biryani was the best I’ve ever had. I ordered spicy and it was perfect for someone who loves hot food. I was having a bad day until I ate here. Wish I lived in this area to visit more. Don’t hesitate to stop in! The staff is very professional and polite. You won’t regret coming here.

Tandoori Flame is currently still under construction but the food here is great. They have a balance of vegetarian options as well as meat options. I was very impressed with their Bathura and their samosas. Check them out if you are on the south side of Indianapolis, just in front of the IMAX theatre. I highly recommend these guys.

Tandoori Flame is my favorite Indian restaurant! Every single time I've been greeted with a friendly smile and welcome. The service is always quick, efficient, and helpful. The thing that puts them above other Indian restaurants though is that each dish I've tried has been delicious and unique, not just different meat covered with the same brown sauce. Dinner is great but their lunch buffet is my favorite, simply because I can try new dishes and discover more wonderful...
