Recent Reviews
The food and service was wonderful. We had the butter chicken and the channa masala with butter naan. Also we got the goat biryani, which was different but it was good. Not your regular Hyderabadi biryani. But it was worth the try.

Taste of Tandoori continues to be our favorite Indian restaurant. We’ve been regular customers for many years. Their butter chicken continues to be the best anywhere. The service has always been excellent and the food is so good that I always lick the spoon clean.

It’s been a long time since I’ve ordered from here, but definitely glad I went back! Went inside to order pick up (they have such beautiful decor!) I got the lamb curry lunch special and tandoori chicken wings. The wings and lamb had such good flavor and were cooked perfectly. The lamb was so tender, the best I’ve had so far! Look forward to trying other things on the menu.
