    One of the serves smelled really bad, would get a big BO smell when he passed by each time. The tandoor chicken was 🔥. Lamb was over cooked a bit. Chicken tiki masala was alright. Cool ambiance and the staff was really nice.

    The chicken in the Chicken Tikki Masala was overcooked, so it was a bit tough and chewy. The Mango Cheesecake is good, but definitely not worth the price of $14, that is crazy actually. There was also too much graham cracker crust, so some bites were a bit dry. Lamb Biryani was very good. Tables are probably a bit too small, should look into getting bigger tables so as not to overcrowd the table when the food arrives. There should also not be as many tables in the main dining room upstairs, everyone is on top of each other, feels less personal.

    Came for restaurant week menu! There was about a 45 minute wait when we arrived for our reservation. Other than that, everything was great! Wonderful host and servers. The food was delicious too. My favorite was the lamb and the mango cheesecake.

    The food was oh so immaculate, like absolutely decadent and would eat there again. The space was quaint, and I enjoyed the atmosphere because of the different levels in the space; we were on the lower level. Service started fabulously! Overall, there could have been improvements. We were greeted at the door and it was so nice, and our server was also super nice. However, there were some mishaps with our order (some items we received were not what we ordered), but we chose to not cause further issue because the items were still things we would eat (and super tasty!), and our server did seem a little overwhelmed (with restaurant week, I totally get it), and his kindness throughout the night made up for it. Would def try this place again, just maybe on a calmer, less busy day (outside restaurant week).

    Indian food first timer - everything was absolutely delicious! We got the beef samosas and the chicken empanadas, the dipping sauces were so good. I got the Tandoori Chicken and my husband got the Biryani with chicken and lamb, and side of garlic naan. Not too spicy for me and everything was very flavorful. Will definitely be back!

    This was our first visit to Tandoor Char House, thanks to Restaurant Week. It will definitely not be our last. This is sophisticated food, with nuanced flavors. The portions are generous and the service friendly and welcoming. This is the best Indian food we have had. Next time, we will take advantage of the BYOB policy.

    I went on a Sunday for restaurant week, the service was slow. We waited 10 min for drinks, just to be notified they had ran out. That’s fine, I ordered two sodas.. never received them. Then my food came with rice.. I didn’t get it with my order. I had to wait 15 min for a little plate of rice. At that point I wasnt vibing anymore. The server was not attentive at all. Did not check on us? We had to flag him down. The food was just ok
