Disappointing. Large portions for what you pay which is awesome, but the flavor for the orders I had were not good. Not sure the price is worth trying it again.

I ordered the naan and butter chicken from Tandoor through Uber Eats. Both were flavorful so the the naan being huge. I would only suggest cutting the chicken smaller or cooking it slower so it’s juicier. I will still be ordering from here again.

I ordered a Chicken Saag with rice and garlic naan. It was pretty awesome. The price is not really that far off to the other places here. Portion sizes are good. This one entree with rice and naan can feed two people pretty well IMO. Though, the naan is so good I’d probably have ordered more than one because it disappears quickly.

Ordered delivery. I really hoped it would be good. I don’t want to leave bad review but kind of disappointed. Paratha was burnt badly and bitter. And there was only ONE piece ( cost $5). Only okay thing was lamb tikka but it lacked flavor. Everything was on the salty end (and I actually like salty food). Most disappointing one was the rice! It was dry as sand. Someone forgot to add more liquid to this rice. The empanada was good.

Ordered online, which was easy as 1 would think. The food is fantastically amazing. I’ve been to their flagship and there too was amazing great food. The order was fast and hot when I got there. Very friendly guy behind the scenes and was super cool when I went inside to pick up the order. Will be going back for more. Favorite go-to now. You’ll be happy with the taste and portions!

OMG so much delicious! You honestly can’t go wrong with anything, we ordered, Chicken Tikka Masala, Palak Paneer, Saag Lamb, Butter Chicken, Veggie Samosas, Tandoori Chicken, Tamarind Wings, Chaat fries and the Naan sampler. I’m still having trouble picking which was my favourite. If you order the fries do yourself a solid and ask for a side of tikka masala sauce to put over them. Better yet, order the lamb tikka masala and bour that over them instead of rice. There were 5 of us and there was plenty for full dinner the next night.

Fantastic spot! Our go-to place for takeout. Favorites are the lamb biryani, veggie samosa, and chicken tikka. Faraz and team always hook us up with extra Achar!

Ordered the Chicken Tikka Masala, the Lamb Saag, and the Tandoori Chicken Empanadas for takeout. The Chicken Tikka was good, but the Saag and Tandoori Empanadas blew me away. Both the lamb and the chicken tandoori were extremely tender. And you could tell the empanadas were made from scratch. The prices seem expensive at first glance, but you are given double portions of the entrees. So one entree is enough for two people(if you order extra rice). I will definitely be ordering from here again.

I used to get Tandoor in Lincoln Park when I lived there, I’m so pumped it’s in West Town now . Ordered the chicken tikka masala and the chicken saag. Both excellent. A friend brought me some chicken tikka empanadas the other day…MUST GET, I REPEAT, YOU MUST GET THESE AS THEY ARE AMAZING. Oh and the garlic naan was insanely good. Just a great addition to the neighborhood.
