After being disappointed with other Indian restaurants in the area I decided to give Tandoor India a try. YUM!! The food was delicious, well spiced, and authentic. (Yes Ive been to India)! As a vegetarian, I found lots to choose from. The gentleman serving us was extremely nice and attentive, and personable as well. This restaurant has been open for 34 years which is a testament to its excellent food and service.

( FYI: Vegan ) I've been eating here since the Early 90s, BEST Indian Food I've Ever eaten (Not just NJ). Same Gentleman running the Spot since the Beginning, Absolutely, Exceptionally, EXCELLENT customer service. More than 30 years eating here and have had Not ONE complaint, or Mistake through Hundreds of Family size orders. Unfortunately, we're almost 50 miles away now but still make sure to come in a few times a year.

When we heard that a new Indian restaurant was opening in town we were interested. When we realized that it was our favorite Indian restaurant but in a better location we were THRILLED. This is a family owned establishment where the owner comes out to speak with you, walks you through your options, and then delivers absolutely DELICIOUS food. We took my wife's mother there for her first experience of Indian cuisine and they took excellent care of her. HIGHLY recommend.

I have been here years ago, decided to return tonight and was highly impressed! The food exceeded my expectations, it was delicious! Not bland, tons of flavor, exactly how I like it. Huge portions for the price. Will put this restaurant back in my dinner rotation Unrelated to the restaurant itself, this complex used to be busy but for some reason it feels like a ghost town outside of it, almost like an experience people would pay for Give it a try!

Just tried this place for the first time. It does not get much recognition as it is not a gimmicky or flashy place at all. While the atmosphere is slightly outdated the food blew my expectations out of the water and the owner of the restaurant is very friendly and takes a lot of pride in his craft. Would DEFINITELY recommend to anybody who is in the mood for Indian food.

Just had a wonderful dinner here! Balwinder was very friendly and attentive. Everything we ordered was full of flavor and delicious. We got the Samosas, Tandoori Chicken, and the Fried Paneer to start. The Samosas were my favorite. I couldn’t get enough of the red onions and brown sauce served with it. For mains, I got the Chicken Makhani, and it was absolutely delicious! The spices were delicious and the sauce was so creamy. Paired with the rice and garlic naan, it was the perfect comfort food! My boyfriend got the Chicken Vindaloo, and he loved it. What I really appreciate about this restaurant is that it does not use any oil in any of the cooking. Highly recommend. We will definitely be back!

Just went here for the first time today and honestly this is the best Indian spot I have ever been at. The food is packed with so much flavor and everything tastes delicious and fresh. I definitely recommend this spot to family and friends and anyone who is looking to get Indian food. The owner is the sweetest man and knows how to keep a business going. So happy I found this place 10/10 recommend!!
