Food: Food's mediocre, not a game-changer
There is some authenticity and value inherent in Tandoor-a-india's high-ranking Garlic Naan - it's flavorful and fresh, lauded as a must-try. The Tandoori Chicken Masala is tender and rich, and the Saag Paneer is homemade, creamy, and full of flavor. It's an insult to the taste buds though when they serve bland and non-fresh food. The portions are anything but conservative, overflood the plates, turning away the meek-hearted. The menu could do better with more varied options.
Great Value
Consistently cited as great value for delicious, authentic Indian cuisine.
Okay Taste
Generally better than average, yet some dishes lacked the expected punch.
Small Portions
Very large portions can overwhelm and exceed diners' needs.

Vibe: Lackluster vibe, less invitation
Ambience isn't the impressive of the lot - some say cozy, others cramped. Lack of curb appeal won't win them any admirers, and a poor lighting scheme shoots down any chances of a romantic date night. They may pull back a little with an okay variety of cold beer but that doesn't extend to the wine list.
Okay Drinks
Good selection of cold beer but wine list is not much extensive.
No Views
Unappealing exterior, lacking curb appeal distracts from the overall experience.
Perks: Parking's painful, diet options shine
The parking lot could rival an obstacle course for its difficulty, not the most convenient feature. The tight setting amplifies noise and restricts privacy - not ideal for large groups or a peaceful outdoor meal. Remarks on service vary, some praise the friendliness, others criticize the pace. On the flip side, they win points for their variety of delicious vegetarian and vegan options, even kid-friendly.
Great For Diets
Great variety of delicious vegetarian and vegan options, with flavorful choices.
Okay Service
Mixed experiences with service, varying from friendly to slow or impersonal.
Hard To Hear
Tables too close, hard to have private conversations, noisy.
