Very good food and 'tude
Tandoori is a stand-out Indian Restaurant on the UWS I've had most of the menu and it's all very good to excellent. The vegetarian dishes, particularly their aloo ghobi and chana saag, are superb. To top it off, the staff are warm and attentive. Love this place.

Dry Aloo Gohbi
I am a huge fan of Indian food. I just started a new job on the uws, and was hungry after work, and knew it would take me an hour to get home so I decided to try out a new Indian place. The majority of reviews for this place were great. I walked in and the atmosphere was great, very cozy and inviting. The service was good, very friendly.y water was Luke warm, no ice, which was unfortunate. I almost ordered the palak paneer, but I had just had that the week before. I hadn't had Aloo Gohbi in awhile so I was excited. Now by no means do I want my food drowning in sauce but it was the driest Aloo Gohbi I've ever had. The cauliflower was still pretty good but everything else was so dry it tasted dull. And it was definitely a little overpriced. I would give it another try, but I think next time I'll try their Palak Paneer!

subpar buffet
dal was watery, cabbage was auwful, beef curry was being passed as lamb curry, chicken was with yellow doughy sauce. Only thing good was pakoras and rice. Oh! kheer. bad,bad,bad. Will never go again

Quality food
Highly recommended. Tikka masala and makhni are very good

Amazing restaurant, try the palak paneer
At Tandoori, they really know how to give a special touch to every dish. The palak paneer was the best i've ever tried, and the nan bread is so good that we just kept ordering more and more of it during the meal. They have really fresh, delicious meat, and the staff smiles at you all the time. It's a very personal, intimate, experience. Great place for a date, very romantic

Excellent buffet
A fine neighborhood restaurant that never disappoints. We enjoyed a tasty, varied, and very reasonably priced buffet. Everything was fresh and well prepared from salad to dessert.

Worst Indian so far for this reviewer
Not being a fan of the lunch special buffet thing I naively ordered from the menu. Chicken tikka it was. The waiter asked me if I wanted it with "gravy". Gravy! (You know, the massala for "Westerners". I don't remember just walking out of an Irish pub to deserve this.) Now, if I am to create my own dish I have a kitchen at home. And it is not as expensive as this place -- given the competition from the real Indian restaurants in the hood, the prices are insulting. Would there be any way to get a recommendation from the menu? The tongue-in-cheek response was to be understood as: stay away from it! No wonder that the waiter took the menu from my table at the first opportunity, directing me (for the second time) to the buffet. Not wanting to spoil my late Sunday lunch completely, I insisted on the menu and so I got my Tikka massala. I don't know how much sugar they put in there but after a few bites I felt like running to the bathroom for the number three. The chicken seemed microwaved ("clay oven" of the restaurant apparently). Well, I should have followed the waiter's instructions and had my buffet lunch special instead of spending almost $30 on arguably the worst Indian dish I had ever tasted plus a not-too-bad Indian beer (even though not the one I ordered). Oh, well, it is all my fault in the end; the rule of the thumb is that if the waiter suggests you should NOT order a dish, than you should not order it.
