I had an amazing time at Tandoori Grill two weeks back! After working a wet and rainy shift for Bolder Boulder, I needed something warm and filling. I've been to tandoori kitchen in Lafayette but this place was a great nearby choice! Right in a big plaza, easy parking and access. Staff was friendly and greeted me well. I went on a Saturday, and to my delight there was a Jazz Singer group there! They added so much ambience and charm to the meal. She plays every other Saturday so try and see them! A mango Lassi was excellent to sooth my sore throat from talking all day. I got the classic Paneer Tiki Masala, with a Garlic naan on the side. Flavors were all there and naan was warm and soft. Rice was cooked well and compliments the sauce well. Overall, an excellent stop in Boulder and hope to be back soon! read more

The Mulligatawny soup was excellent and the Papadam was good as well with three sauces. The entrees and spinach saag could've used a bit more flavor though. Tiffins is still the go-to Indian restaurant in Boulder. read more

Loved the prior ownership and the new ownership is just as attentive. We try something new each time and have NEVER been disappointed. You gotta go! read more

Food preparation was superior to previous experiences. Service great. Some new menu items. I had the curry lamb - most excellent Holly and the Husbands often play on Saturdays. Also a local joy read more

I always order takeout and it never disappoints. Tandoori is just a great go-to spot for Indian in Boulder. It's always ready in a reasonable amount of time and it's not a bad price. I've gotten many things from them over the years, all vegetarian dishes and it's always solid! I usually get medium veggie masala and hot aloo ghobi, but I only recommend hot if you can tolerate spicy foods. Their medium is usually a good amount of spice, but won't burn off your taste buds. Their veggie samosas are consistently good. And my favorite is their chana saag. Everyone has their bad days, but I'd say Tandoori is a safe bet. Some restaurants are inconsistent especially when it comes to take out, but not so with Tandoori! I've never had a bad experience here. If you like it once you'll probably like it time and time again. read more

I love the combination of delicious food and attentive service. This place has both! It was bustling when we got there on a Friday night but they got our orders in quickly and food came out quick as well. They made sure water was topped off and check on is often. Although it was busy, the atmosphere felt intimate and cozy. We left there so full and still had some to bring home for a snack. read more

We both had the Tandoori Salmon with vegetable curry. It sizzled on the grill as they brought it out. Made my mouth water. It tasted excellent. Great service. Lovely place. read more

Tandoori Grill - Tandoori Salmon with vegetable curry - Indian Near Me - Boulder, Colorado

food was awful. I paid $23 for 80% rice and a measly portion of poorly flavored curry.

We came here for dinner and the garlic naan smelled/tasted like it had oven cleaner on it. That can poison people! It was very mediocre the other food had a weird smell also. I've eaten here before it went to new ownership and it was good. It has gone downhill now sadly I will not be back. I dont trust their food handling safety practices. read more

The best mango lassie's and the tandoori chicken is my favorite! Also lots of GF options and the best rice.

Loved the food! Staff was very friendly and attentive as well. I got the chicken korma and butter naan.

Delicious praise is due! My pregnant wife was craving some Naan & Samosas. The cheese Naan YUM & a side of Masala was fantastic. We will be back for more! Thank you Service was also quick, actuate, and kind! read more

A great and flavorful meal from the Tandoori Grill. I ordered the shrimp jalfrezi and loved the vegetables in the mix. Potatoes and sweet potatoes with other veggies as well. Amd the number of shrimps was plentiful. This was a new dish for me and I would get it again. My husband ordered the lamb curry and, it was savory and satisfying. The spices and sauces in a cold night always feel extra yummy. We will be back for sure. This is our neighborhood Indian restaurant which makes it super convenient as well as delicious. read more

Excellent meal and service. We were the only people on Thursday evening at 5:30pm but the restaurant slowly filled up so don't be put off. As a Brit, I love me some Indian food and have been trying different Indian restaurants in the area. This one is currently in top position. 4 of us ordered Chicken Malai Kabob, Lamb Boti, Butter chicken (medium, a little surprisingly spicy for my American friends but I'd say spot on in terms of medium), Channa Masala, Keema Naan and Garlic Naan. All great but the kabobs were outstanding, juicy and tender. Next time, I'll bring my brother - he'll love all the vegan options! read more

Food is pretty good! Generally no reservation needed theres usually a few empty tables. We got a biryani, saag, and their traditional curry with paneer. We loved the paneer, and everything else was amazing with awesome portions. Definitely able to take leftovers from which i loved. Our server Adrian was really sweet too and took amazing care of us. read more

Ended up at the bar next door when we caught the restaurant a little too late for dinner. It was a little after 9 on a Friday, and we were blown away by the dining experience we ended up having! First off, I LOVE this bar - Boulder needs more places like it - and more paintings of Prince! The IPA was cold and extra delicious and the bar was happening. We ordered Tandoori Chicken Chili Style, and it was one of the best dishes I've EVER had. The chili sauce is incredible and the chicken legs and thighs were cooked perfectly. We also ordered Saag Paneer, hot, and this was also EXCEPTIONAL. The butter naan was delicious, the rice was great, and the late night atmosphere was wonderful. This is our new favorite Boulder restaurant and we can't wait to go back! read more

We came to this restaurant to meet with some family members, who often come to this restaurant for dinner. I had the biryani with shrimp and naan. My boyfriend had a mixed. The food was good, the place is cozy. read more

This food is consistently the best Indian food by far in all of the South Bay. I'm fact, it's the only Indian restaurant I will go to in the Southbay. read more

Just alright as Indian restaurants go. Had the veggie korma, which was okay - not great. I found the naan bread kind of greasy and later heard other patrons order it with no butter but frankly had never seen it served as though it got a quick layer of oil on the way out of the kitchen. It's 2019 - aren't people worried about cholesterol? Not a place I intend to visit again. read more

The food here is AMAZING! We ordered the butter chicken, channa masala, chicken korma, and garlic naan. Their spice level is 10/10, I wanted it extra spicy and that's exactly how I got it. The butter chicken and korma were very creamy. The service was great as well read more

My go to spot for Indian food in Boulder! I've never had a bad experience here, and I've been like 30+ times. Smooth pickup process during covid, and they seem to be clean inside as well. We have a lot of options in Boulder for Indian food, and they are right up there with the best! The lamb vindaloo is read more

I'm partial to Tandoori because this is my neighborhood Indian restaurant, damn it is so good. I'm going to be so bold to say, best in Boulder. I like a few other places in town, but they are your run of the mill Indian take out. Tandoori tweaks the normal Indian experience in subtle ways that create a wow factor. Example Aloo SUPER Saag, have you ever had kale, mustard greens, and chard in your saag? Don't miss out. I added the sweet potato and Brussel sprouts samosas in my order this evening and they were fabulous. Even their rice is super delish, perfect spices and lots of love in every batch. Denise pro tip: finish your meal with lettover rice in a bowl, top with honey, cinnamon, ground ginger, and milk. Enjoy. read more

Best Indian in boulder. Love how almost everything g is gluten free and has Vegan options

Family-owned Indian restaurant that offers a high level of service plus a superb menu for dine-in, takeout, or catering. Plenty of parking within the Table Mesa Shopping Center. Large dining room with positive customer service. Open for lunch (there's an all-you-can-eat buffet for just over $10) and dinner. Such good garlic naan, plus a salmon dish that was prepared perfectly. Vegetable curry was outstanding! Fairly priced, great for family, a date, business, or a quick meal on your own. read more

I wish I could say better things given all the rave reviews that got us here and the fact that the service was very fast and attentive. But it was not a good food experience. We walked in and the place smelled heavily of burnt something to the point where we almost left. Then the naan came and that explained it - it was very burnt and I'm surprised they served it. All our dishes were very bland and so-so. The food was a let-down unfortunately, and we normally adore Indian food. read more

The best Indian in Boulder. Dine in, take out, still the same quality and big portions. The chana masala is what dreams are made of.

Never in all my dining experiences have I had something like what happened at the Tandoori Grill. We came here with friends after a movie and were really looking forward to Indian food. Our friends gave this place high praises. We ordered two orders of garlic naan. It quickly came to the table and we dug in. Just as quickly, the runner came back to the table and grabbed the basket. Before we had a chance to ask what was happening, she reached in to the basket, grabbed four slices of naan and THEN told us she had accidentally brought us three orders not two. She then dropped the naan on the floor, picked it up and put it in another full basket of naan she had been holding. Our friend told her she couldn't do that. Her response? It's all going in the trash. What the what? Rather than give us the extra naan which is pennies on the dollar, she grabbed food off our table just to throw it away. Our server came to get our order to which we asked for the bill instead because we were leaving. She looked appropriately upset and told us the naan was on the house. We walked out and will never be back. read more

The food and service was outstanding. Make sure to order some naan, it's the best I've ever had!

I used to come here when I lived in South Boulder when this restaurant first opened up. We would come here for a nice hearty lunch or for a hangover cure. I had not been back in awhile but decided to check it out today to see if it was still as I remembered it to be. Lunch buffet is a bit pricey-ten dollars for not many choices. Saag, tandoori chicken, lentils, pakora, chicken curry, and meatballs. I just don't get the meatball deal on Indian buffets. I do not think meatballs are truly an Indian dish, and they seem like the kind you would buy just up the walkway at King Soopers in the frozen food section, but the sauce on them is good. Their food is not as spicy as I would like for my tastes, but one star definitely goes for some of the best tamarind chutney in Colorado. Also, bravo for the fresh naan brought out after you sit down. Service was really lame. The guy working there seemed like it was a bother to seat me and told me to follow a woman around who was refilling people's water glasses and bussing tables. No thank you...so I waited and he finally sat me down. One of the waitresses was wearing ski pants which was annoying with every swish when she walked by. She also had part of her skin showing where her pants were supposed to meet her t-shirt, which to me, is really not appropriate in a restaurant no matter where you are. It is more efficient to get up and walk to pay at the register, then to wait for them to bring you the bill (I had to ask for it...was almost considering dining and dashing but I am not 12 anymore...) and then wait to bring you your credit card back. They have definitely done some work on the ambiance...,more decorations. If I still lived in the 'hood I am sure I would be going here more frequently...but still not a bad choice for a decent lunch outside of downtown Boulder. read more

One review closer to being caught up. :) This was for a pick-up order. Tandoori Grill is nicely located on S Broadway, west of US36, on the SW corner of Broadway and Table Mesa. As such, it was a coin toss for me to bolt down 36, or go the "back way" down 120th and then go north on Broadway. There was no contest as the views down south of Boulder on that road are stunning. Good deal for people in Westminster/Broomfield/Superior like myself. I ordered vegetable pakora for myself, having become a recent fiend, and found them ok, but not crispy and hot like at Nepal Cuisine or Himalayas. I also ordered cheese naan, which, unlike Himalayas, actually had *some* detectable mild cheddar (?) in it - there wasn't really enough to tell, but at least you could see it in there. The menu says cheddar and mozzarella, I can believe that. Pretty soft and tear-apartable for munching...and soaking in the below sauce... I had the extremely delicious mango curry with lamb, and *that* stuff is a treat. It's made with mango puree and mango chutney, along with various Indian spices. It's a few dollars pricier than other curry dishes on the menu, but *so* worth it -- everyone should try it at least once! It goes perfectly with lamb (I feel vaguely sorry for the lambs, as that's what my 1st choice seems to be at Indian-esque places...sorry, I can't help it that you're tasty!!! O_O ), which is what I had. They didn't skimp on the lamb chunks either, there was plenty to be had. The steamed rice was fairly unremarkable but maybe it was long-grain...it was hard to tell. I had phoned in my order so was just there to pick it up; my server was ok but as noted in another review here, seemed to be in robot mode. There weren't any to-go menus to take with, the server said they had to order some more. Meh *shrug* That's what your website is for, I s'pose. They also make various chilis there out of meats, have tandoori items for perusal as well as biryani dishes, and between 15-20 vegetarian dinners that look pretty tasty. The decor was unremarkable and this was the only Indian/Pak/Nepal/Tibet place I'd been to that didn't have some kind of music laced throughout with that Indian drum (tabla? It sounds like a bongo drum) sound. I found I missed it...seemed more "westernized" and less "exotic/escapist" music than the other places I've been recently. Got some pics, too. Will probably be back to sample further, perhaps dining in this time, and also because it's pretty close distance-wise to me. Hopefully dining-in will wow me more than the take-out did -- it was tasty enough, but nothing stood out except the main dish. read more

Another wonderful meal at Tandoori Grill! The Chana Saag was amazing as well as the Chicken Curry. The spices are incredible. Also enjoyed the Garlic Naan. Some of the best Indian food we have ever had! Service is always prompt and friendly! read more

I remember having good times at this place. The food is great, the service is decent, and the prices are ok. One of the better places in Boulder to get your Indian-food hook-up, this place has ample parking and space. The ambiance is sort of eh....and I actually remember my chai being watered down a bit. The vegetarian selection is excellent, like with most Indian places. Nonetheless, I still suggest it...this place gets it right on enough levels to earn the illusive 4th star - a tough gig when it comes to the dog-eat-dog, tooth and nail, live and let die, bloody survivalism that is the restaurant market. read more

I've been coming to the Tandoori Grill for a while now. The Indian food is good, prices are reasonable. The service can be slow at times. They also have a decent buffet lunch which I've had several times now. They have a small bar with a good selection of beers and other drinks. I continue to come back for the food and highly recommend it. If you check-in with Yelp, they offer a 5% coupon! read more

Excellent tandoori! Tender meat, excellent flavor! Since their buffet was shut down, they gave 25% off their dinner menu, which was very generous. The Channa saag was also delicious! I shall definitely return when restaurants reopen. read more

Waited an hour for take out, which is not a huge complaint. Food was soggy, bland, and skimpy. 5 very small pieces of chicken, Barry a single breast, and not even remotely spicy (which I asked for). Service was even worse. No one says hello, they have no courtesy, and won't even look you in the eye to tell you someone else will be right with you. I want my money back. This place has offended me for the last time. read more
