Well, the search continues for a good Indian restaurant. We dined here 3/8/24. It was an odd experience, but a few things stuck out to us.
First and foremost was service. We arrived at the restaurant around 6:45, where we found there were some RSVP signs placed on the vacant booths. We then found they weren't necessarily reserved, you just have to wait for the right employee to remove the signage. But we didn't get much of a hello, just had some menus given and left alone for around 20 minutes. Every table that came in after us and a couple who sat down at the same time as us, had their orders taken first.
The pompadoms served were chewy. When the food came, we were very surprised at the portion sizes. We ordered the lamb Rogan Josh and the paneer burji. For the price of around $20.00, the Rogan Josh came with a measly 9 small chunks of dry and overcooked lamb. The sauce was pretty good, well spiced and pleasantly textured. The paneer was pretty salty but otherwise cooked well. The basmati rice that accompanied our dish tasted a bit stale? The garlic Naan was the highlight. Very good.
Our waitress seemed indifferent to our presence, and the couple who came in after us, but socialised frequently with the other tables that she had. A bit odd, it made us feel like we were a little unwelcome lol.
Overall, I think the pricing needs adjustment and the waitstaff could be a little friendlier towards everyone. Another thing they did was direct us to give them a Google review, so that's what I am doing here. We paid around $50.00 for just two mains and two Naan breads (priced at $2.80 each).
I would not suggest this restaurant for large groups due to the pricing and serving size. The food is average. The service is a little unwelcoming.

Garlic Naan
My friends and I come here regularly because the food is always consistently delicious. I often crave food from here. The staff are very friendly and accommodating, we always have a wonderful experience dining in or taking out. There are varying levels of spice offered for anyone looking to try dishes out. I highly recommend the chicken or lamb korma, as those are the two that I often go for. However, all of the dishes I have tried from Tandoori Hut are delicious (the Naan, especially).

Butter Chicken
The restaurant exudes a warm, inviting ambiance, perfectly setting the stage for a memorable dining experience.
The menu, rich in variety, offers a delectable journey through India’s diverse cuisine. The standout dish for me was their signature Tandoori Chicken – marinated to perfection, its flavors were a harmonious blend of spices, cooked just right to retain its juiciness. Each bite was a testament to the chef’s mastery in traditional Indian cooking.
Equally impressive were their vegetarian offerings. The Paneer Tikka, with its delicate balance of spices and perfectly grilled paneer, was a delightful surprise, catering wonderfully to diverse taste preferences.
What truly sets Tandoori Hut apart, however, is their impeccable service. The staff was attentive, offering recommendations with a smile, and ensuring a comfortable dining experience. Their knowledge about the cuisine added a personal touch, making the meal not just about food but an educational journey into Indian culture.

Got a groupon for an 8 course meal for two to Tandoori Hut Indian restaurant, so we decided to try them out tonight. The food was really good and oh so plentiful. The service is very good too. Everuone was kind and attentive and beyond welcoming. It's a bit of a drive but worth it. They even let us pick out what we wanted from the menu. We didn't even put a dent into our meal, there was so much food. I highly recommend

This place is a solid 3 but I made it 4 for the service. The gentleman who served us was very warm and friendly. He offered salad 🥗 without asking and when our cauliflower Manchurian order went wrong (it had way too much salt) he investigated and apologised as they had marinated it incorrectly and got us samosas on the house. I appreciated his approach and specially that he accepted what we mentioned as often times restaurants just brush it off and make it look like it’s our fault and not a deficiency at their end. The lady who was serving us was also very warm and attentive. I enjoyed the overall experience they make up for their sub par food with exceptional service. Another opportunity is for clean restrooms.

My wife and I decided to try something new for our anniversary and ended up eating here with little knowledge of Indian cuisine. We didn’t know what to expect, but what we received was absolutely delicious food and spectacular service. We ordered samosas, lamb korma, garlic nan, and malai chicken. Each dish was bursting with delicious flavor’s with the perfect amount of spice and seasoning. We will definitely be adding this restaurant into our dining rotation.
To the manager, thank you so much for making tonight a fantastic dining experience!
