Halal meat is served here. Owners are known Muslims. Ordered some take out from this place. Had the chicken wrap which had alot of meat in it, which was good. The beef seekh kabob wrap is very good. The keema naan is excellent. The potato salad is a little spicy, but good. Also had the mango lassi which was good. The interior decor of this place is nice and it does feel a little like "Chaat Cafe", but a little nicer. They also have a nice little waiting area with sofas in the corner. Good place to sit in or take out.

This rating may change to 5 stars if the next time we come here the experience is as good as this evening. The gentleman at the register was extremely friendly and made good suggestions for our meal. The food was great and we enjoyed the chai tea as well. Apparently they also serve a lunch buffet for only $10 which also includes a fountain drink. This happens even on weekends. We will likely come back for that so we can sample more dishes. Both of the dishes and the appetizer we ordered tonight were quite tasty.

Great value for the $10 Indian Buffet Lunch, includes bottomless fountain soda and tax. Chicken Tandoor was moist and tender. Overall, there was some vegetarian dishes and chicken, goat. Food has some spicy heat before adding. Family style atmosphere. High chairs and booster chairs are under the cash register. Naan was on the drier, stiffer side. All the buffet dishes are labeled. Cafe a Tandoor always serves Chicken Tandoori, Butter Chicken and Spicy Mixed Vegetables as part of their Lunch Buffet.

Had an order of the Veggie Wrap (in bhatura) w/cucumber salad (~$8): Romaine lettuce, cucumbers, spicy potatoes, tomatoes, cilantro, onions, green chilies, and chutneys. Also had an order of the Paneer Wrap (in naan) w/potato salad (~$8): Tandoori Paneer, cucumbers, spicy potatoes, tomatoes, cilantro, onions, green chilies, and chutneys. Food was delicious, staff was discounted (as the food was taken to-go via a Yelp! deal), and the ambiance was (resultantly) elsewhere.

I ordered a paneer tikka masala it is very poor quality, they made with tomato sauce and the taste is horrible. I thought by mistake they made and when I called then to compliant they said bluntly that they cannot able to make whatever the way that I like. I ordered poori for takeout and made batura. when i called them they are saying that that is how they make poori. This is the worst poori that i ever ate and never seen anyone making poori like this.

Please dont go this restaurant. Very bad , boiled pieces with color water. No salt no masala nothing is good . Even there is no proper greeting. They are spoiling the name tandoori . Better to cook at home than coming here. Waste of time as well as money. For telugu people it will taste very bad

We ordered 3 dishes.. Chicken Biryani...Nice...but not that great. Chicken Tikka masala: top notch Lamb with salad...awesome Maybe next time I shall try something different. Quantity: More than possible to eat. Price: Ok the bill was $22. Will revisit.

Stay at your own risk I had to pay in advance and gave a tip but I had to get my own water, silverware and napkins. Portions were good and food was acceptable. The place was dirty, looks like there was a party and they started cleaning when I was eating.

They had been serving great food, but recently their quality and taste of food has gone down. Specially the vegetables in a meal are half cooked. Initially I thought its just once, but its been going on for a while. Their buffet is value for money.

I was bored eating food prepared by me. So I went to this hotel and ordered "chicken tikka masala". It was veg curry with chicken pieces in it. They really dont know how to prepare food. waste for money. Please dont try here.

I was here for the lunch buffet The Mutton was amazing and the chicken dishes were satisfactory except for the butter chicken although I had high hopes for it. It has a decent vegetarian spread too.

Not being familiar with The Marketplace layout, it took a few minutes to find. Food was delicious. Disappointed I became full and had to quit eating.

Under new mangement. Took 1 hour to complete an order! Suggest avoiding this place until they understand the process better.

Kids love the chicken tikka kabab and naan. Its their favorite afterschool snack. We are always treated like family.

I wish they served their curry chicken on a more consistent basis. But their 10$ buffet is a deal!
