“Great spot with really good food. If you are new to Indian cuisine, this is the perfect spot. You can try the items before you buy!“

“We love Tandoor! It is our favorite place to eat Indian food. We have never been disappointed. The waiters are the best and the owners are so nice! They have so many gluten free options too! I love the mixed Pakora and the Paneer Butter Masala. Thank you for being consistently amazing!!“

“Very unassuming place with good food and friendly service. I had the Thursday special with Nann bread and 2 kinds of chicken plus a Samosa and Mango Lassi. All were good - especially the chicken Korma and Samosa. I also like that you can choose your level of spice. I got the 3 out of 5 which was spicy. Will definitely go here again!“

“Absolutely one of the best home catering and cloud kitchen experiences I’ve had! The Seeraga Sambha biriyani (mutton, chicken, and veg) is incredibly flavorful and perfectly cooked with authentic homemade taste. The mutton kulambu is rich, aromatic, and goes so well with rice or idly. The Chicken 65 is a standout—super juicy on the inside and amazingly crispy on the outside, just the way it should be. And the idly and paniyaram are unbelievably soft and fresh.
You can really taste the care and quality in every dish. If you’re looking for delicious, authentic South Indian food made with love, I highly recommend ordering from her. Definitely a 5-star experience!“

“Today we visited this restaurant and enjoyed nice food. Prices are reasonable too. People who insist only vegetarian food can enjoy here because it’s purely vegetarian. Their coconut chutney and sambhar are delicious. The lady Olga’s customer service is very nice. This was our third time visiting this restaurant and the food was as good as it was at the first time which means their quality is great!“

“My son took me to dinner here following a recommendation. Spot on! Service was excellent, the crafted cocktails were delicious and the food was amazing. Perfect amount of flavor, great value and loved the atmosphere. Will definitely be back next time I come to town!“

“I stumbled upon Exotica at an India Food Festival in Charleston, SC. I’ve been on an Indian Food kick so I had to go see what this festival had to offer. Exotica had an impressive spread of food that was well displayed esthetically and from a food quality and safely standpoint. I’m a kitchen manager and caterer so that stands out and matters to me. They had the longest of a lot of long lines which told me it should be good. I was right. It was top notch. They far exceeded my expectations for the event. I didn’t know what most of the menu was so I looked everything up while I waited and made a list on my hand. My favorites of what I chose were the Samosa Chat, Onion Samosa and the Madurai Malli Dosa. Everything was amazing though. Sooo many flavors!! I’ll definitely be going to their restaurant the next time I’m near Charlotte. 10000% Now that I look at the full menu I see so much more that I need to try. Definitely a happy little accident finding this gem. 20/10 recommend :)“

“First time trying Ruchi. Got there early so we were able to spend time talking to the staff, who were all very friendly. We tried Indian take out staples this time (Tikka Masala and Korma) but had a really cool Indian Salad and the Gobi 65 was perfect. Will definitely go back and excited to try some authentic Hyderabadi items next time!“

“INCREDIBLE Indian food!! Was my first time trying it with my friends and I was not disappointed. My absolute favorite was the chicken chettinad and if you have not eaten Indian food before this is definitely the place to go. A special thank you to Usha for making our time so pleasant. Will definitely come back.“

“I remember come to Persis when they first opened, a few years back. I brought my daughter to try Indian food, after church today and she was hooked as soon as she melted the fresh aromas when we walked through the door. Everything was simply amazing. It good to see the place still in business and bringing amazing food with quality service. Thank you all so much.“

“I didn’t any pictures of the soup however it was the best soup I ever had and love the spices I’m a Indian restaurant kind of guy don’t matter what state or county I travel. I have to find me an Indian spot even if it’s a grocery store. I did get a picture of the mirror and I felt the down to earth person as a human being that what made came back . I wanted to talk about what I can do for you and your restaurant that will boost the customer to want to stop and take a peep to the atmosphere. Because yall deserve well success on yall journey with the restaurant. What I can do will be very helpful to you and the business if you ready for the traffic that will enter 🤗“

“Dropped in here today to make a to-go plate from the buffet since I was short on time. This was around 12pm on a Wednesday- the buffet was well stocked and the staff were actively monitoring. Everything I chose had great flavor- chana masala, chicken tikka masala, chicken biryani. My only constructive feedback would be to have some of the naans wrapped in foil to-go (so that they keep warm😀). Great option for the uptown lunch crowd, especially on a cold or rainy day as it is located in the Overstreet Mall (near Chick-fil-A).“

“Naanzza!!! At first I was uncertain about the texture and taste of the naanzza but turned out be good combination. Basically it’s a cheese naan with toppings. I have tried the chicken tikka pizza and tandoori chicken pizza which were relevant to the Indian palate. The heat from the jalapeños, the crunchiness from the onions, refreshing tomatoes and cilantro, and the tikka sauce generously smothered over the pizza worked out perfectly. Paneer makhani pizza was reasonable but could not stand with chicken pizza in terms of flavor.“

“This is my family’s go- to Indian restaurant. We have done dine- in and take away both plenty of times. The taste is absolutely perfect! Always the same taste and no surprises. Service is good. Atmosphere is calm too. Highly recommended!“

“Thank you guys so much for outstanding hospitality! The food was absolutely amazing✨ I’ve tried a lot of different foods but I’ve never had the experience of so many flavors dancing in my mouth. That’s what makes the authenticity of a dish! Chefs Kiss💯“

“Authentic food that is always on point. This is one of my favorite restaurants in Charlotte and top destination for great Indian food. I always order chicken tikka masala, garlic naan, saag panera and Biriyani but you probably can’t go wrong with anything on their menu.“

“Yeah Mon! If you are looking for the real deal mon, then this is the thing! Jamaican food at its best. Tonight was my first visit to Fidels Kitchen and I was impressed with how tasty, spicy, and authentic it all was. Admittedly, I am not from Jamaica, but I am from Florida which has some great Jamaican food too. I had been hankering for some red snapper and I had a Groupon for this place plus I had to head near their side of town anyway. I ordered the Red Snapper Escovitch with the rice&peas and the mac and cheese. The snapper was excellent, cooked just right and covered with a clear sauce that was freshly tangy and spicy hot (but not too much) with onions, Irish potato slices, and thin slices of Scotch Bonnet pepper. (Scotch Bonnet peppers are very closely related to habanero peppers.) I also ordered a small portion of curry goat. The last time I had curry goat Jamaican style this darn good was in the Jamaican Town of Flushings, Queens, NYC. That place was known for its curried goat and Fidels matches it! (Is that Blue Mountain Hot Curry?) The rice&peas portion was huge and full of flavor. The mac and cheese was certainly cheesy and not some fake Kraft powder-like cheese. Its top was toasted with just a touch of crispness. Topping it all off were a couple of slices of plantain. Please keep in mind that this location is takeout only! Fidels Kitchen is part of the South Ends Eats which houses seven different restaurants. Customers for all seven doors go thru the same entrance and the lobby is where to pick up or order food. When the food is ready, it is stashed in a locker box and you use your phone app at the kiosk and the locker door pops open. Quite a unique setup. There is no indoor seating, but there is outdoor seating with picnic tables around the side of the building. (Rumor has it that there might be another Fidels Kitchen opening hopefully in the near future in Concord.)“

“Went in during my lunch break to pick up a bag from too good to go and it was absolutely amazing! Nice big portions and the staff was very friendly! The location is also super convenient, right by my office in uptown so I’ll definitely be back! :)“

“Great food and great service!!“

“I ordered paneer butter masala meal and chicken samosas via Uber Eats. Thr butter massla was bland and watery. I think it is from a jar.

The naan was crispy. It had great flavor, but lacked the sour and chew of homemade naan.

The chickeb samosas were good. I have only had potato and pea versions. They are a tad spicy, but good.“
