We dined in, but we were the only ones there and it seems like people typically order takeout. A lot of people came inside to pick-up. The dine-in experience was great - I would recommend it The food was so so so good! We also ordered samosas, mango lassi drink, and cheese stuffed garlic naan - which were to die for. The samosas were a tad overcooked, but still delicious. I will say, my boyfriend and I ordered the same spicy level for our dishes (I'm white, he's not) and my food was significantly less spicy than his It was still really good, even though it wasn't as spicy as I wanted it to be. So keep that in mind when ordering! Our waitress was kind and attentive. They played Indian music & music videos on the TV. Everything was clean and it wasn't too loud or quite inside. Overall rating: 4.8/5 stars read more

Tandul - Vegetable Biryani - Indian Near Me - Cleveland, Ohio

Food overall at this establishment is good. Good prices. However, service is extremely slow. The interior is worn down. I would come back, but I hope their service improves. Took 45 minutes for the first dish to come out. read more

Incredible!! I was introduced to Tandul by my friend. It is has an unassuming exterior, and when we went, it was not very busy. The service is a little slow but our server was so kind and earnest. The food was BOMB. Amazing flavors, huge portion sizes, and so good for sharing. My favorites were the Kaju curry and Butter chicken. Their menu is also huge, so the world is your oyster in terms of options. We will definitely be back to try more menu items! read more

Ordered off Uber Eats because we had a coupon. While the food tastes decent, it didn't come with rice. $70 for food and no rice and no option to order a side of rice. Won't be getting food from here again. Super expensive for small portions. read more

This was my third time having food from Tandul, but my first time dining in. The food is always VERY good, even this time, but is definitely more of a takeout place. The single restroom had trash piled up in it, clutter, and just felt very unclean. The staff repeatedly sprayed a very strong smelling air freshener in the bar area that made its way to the back dining area & almost made you want to stop eating. Overall, I would eat it again, but I would never dine in again. read more

Service was INCREDIBLY SLOW. Genuinely though he forgot about our order and that we should just get up and leave to a different spot. The food was pretty good but we asked the serve for certain items and he didn't understand and lowkey messed up our orders. It's fine but would've been nice to have the correct stuff. I'd still recommend to go here for some good Indian food as there wasn't a ton of people and the area of it was pretty cute! read more

I ordered from Uber Eats so I never went to the location but I did ask for utensils and none was provided. Out of the other Indian food I have tried, this was alright. The soup I ordered was really great but the chicken tikka masala was alright and the amount of rice they had provided, let's say it is like someone ate half of it before giving it to me. The portion of the rice to the tikka was not 50/50. Unless they have good deals for Uber, I won't be back. read more

I've ordered takeout from Tandul at least 4-5 times now and it is absolutely delicious every single time. My order is always ready in a timely manner, the staff is friendly, and the food is outstanding. Can't go wrong with the chicken korma or the lamb vindaloo, my two favorites so far. Such a great spot to have here in Tremont! read more

The food was good that I genuinely forgot to take a picture for Yelp. My girlfriend knows that I love Indian so she said we should check out Tandul. It was a VERY GOOD decision. I'm not sure if it's because we visited on a Wednesday night but it was pretty empty inside. The only people dining were us and another party but that worked for me. I had the Saag Paneer with Garlic Naan and it was AMAZING! It's very seldom that I go somewhere and eat everything on my plate but this was one of those places. My girlfriend had the Paneer Tikka Masala, which was also good but not as good as the Saag. The only thing I'd change is that I wish it was spicier. The staff were sweet and accommodating. I'll absolutely be back. read more

Placed a takeout order here recently, to give another area Indian restaurant a try. The inside looks cozy and inviting...will have to save that in-person visit for another time (which there will be!). Order was ready to go when I arrived, and when I got it home, all components were still warm and fresh. My wife and I ordered a variety of appetizers, naan and main dishes all to share. We stuck with a few of our "go to" items and ventured out for a new one as well. Our bounty consisted of vegetable samosas (served with the traditional tamarind chutney and cilantro chutney as well), garlic naan, saag paneer, chicken tikka masala and the kaju curry (made with a base of cashews). Everything was delicious, flavorful and not overly spiced making for fantastic bites. The dishes came with generous servings of jasmine rice...between that and the naan it was easy to sop of every glorious bit of the sauces in each presentation! As we were eating, my wife commented how the spice mix she'd been tasting reminded her of the food she was served in her trips to India...a high compliment as to the authenticity of the preparation of these dishes. We were fully satiated by this meal, with plenty of leftovers for two lunches the next day. Not sure how this spot has flown under our radar for so long, but we'll soon be adding them to our regular rotation of go-to spots for Indian in the city, Thanks for such a great meal! read more

What a great Indian restaurant. Some of this may be due to coming out and off hour, but the service was great, the atmosphere very relaxed and my food came fairly quickly. To start, their chapati and mint/tamarind chutnies (the Indian "chips and salsa") were some of the best I've had. The rice was just okay, but my chicken saag was very flavorful and came with more than enough sauce to flavor all the rice. The chicken was also very tender and had just the amount of spice I wanted; my only complaint would be be that the dish was perhaps a bit light on the protein. The samosas actually came out slightly after my main dish (all fairly quickly), and they were pretty good as well. The dough was on the denser side--I tend to prefer ones that are lighter and crispier, but I would still order them if I were craving some. Overall, Tandul was a treat and I'd recommend it to anyone who likes Indian food. I know I'll be back! read more

Have never had a bad meal here always amazing. Service is so friendly. Even when they are busy service is good. Highly recommend Tandul in Tremont. The restaurant is small but cozy and never cramped. read more

We came on a Friday and it was pretty empty when we got there. It started to fill up the longer we were there. Staff was very friendly. We got a bottle of wine and samosas for appetizers. Wine was very reasonably priced and the samosas had good flavor. We got the Allepey Vegetables and Bhindi Masala - both were delectable. Only reason I'm not giving them a higher rating is because the bathrooms did not have any toilet paper and could have been cleaner. The restaurant could also just use a fresh coat of paint. Nothing to do with the food, as it was amazing! Space could just use some sprucing up. read more

My order was for lamb vindaloo, instead I got a chicken dish. The restaurant insists it sent lamb vindaloo and refuses to even acknowledge a mistake. Food is tasty, naan is good, rise is good, but chicken is not the same as lamb. food *** three stars, might have been five stars for lamb service * one star read more

Great food great service but a little spicy so unless you can handle big spice, don't get more than three, but it's excellent

Wow this place has gone downhill. I used to live in tremont and order takeout/eat here. 1) flies and fruit flies buzzing around the head (it's Dec so my guess is possibly from the kitchen) 2) congealed food on dirty menu & dirty floors 3) 0/4 wines available on the menu 4) got a dish and took a bite of what looked like a potato and was a chunk of ginger 5) garlic naan was forgotten Would not eat here or order takeout again read more

Our first time here. Not Indian food experts, but we really enjoyed it. The lentil chips and chutney were a really nice surprise. The service was very good and I thought it was a very cozy place. Fantastic options for vegetarians, BTW. It was doing a very brisk take-out business. We will be back! read more

Malai kofta had about five small very soft kofta in a nice rich creamy gravy. Both entrees were almost $40 which is ungodly expensive compared to similar quality elsewhere in Cleveland. Tandul murgh was pretty darn grease filled. It was highly flavorful though with lots of sweet bell pepper flavor and rich tomato gravy. read more

I haven't been inside Tandul in years for dine-in, but I've been ordering delivery from Tandul for a while during the pandemic, and they do a fabulous job with their delivery meals. They tend to run on the slower side as far as delivery through their partner apps, but the end product is worth it if you're not in a rush. My favorite dishes at Tandul are the Vegetable 555 and the Butter Chicken with a side of Naan. The Vegetable 555 is an appetizer that comes served with crispy fried vegetables and paneer in the chef's speciality sauce, which has the most outstanding spicy taste to it. Literally, I order the naan just to dip it in the chef's special sauce, because it's that good. The butter chicken is also outstanding. It tastes exactly as you would hope it would from an upscale Indian restaurant. The tomato sauce is rich and creamy and blends perfectly with the basmati rice provided. Seriously, just order extra naan and be prepared to dip it in absolutely everything! For me, both of these dishes are like comfort food. Thanks Tandul for continuing to be consistent and awesome. When you've had a stressful day, it's nice to count on a restaurant you know will deliver (literally and figuratively). read more

Made an over the phone order for pick up Got to the restaurant was greeted with a nasty hair twirling young lady sitting in a chair .... That didn't take my order. clearly did not take my order because if she did, she would have heard me say I'm picking up a order under my name instead she had an nasty remark and then I'm paying for my food and the same lady puts my food in a chair and what reason would you have to place my food in a chair where ppl sit their bottoms at and not only that why'd u touch my food you wasn't cashing me out I have so many questions but non the less last time ordering or recommending this establishment! read more

This has been on my list for awhile! I dinned in and it wasn't the greatest. Its kind of dark and dusty- they have a bar as well. I don't care for interior as long as the food is great and It definitely was. Authentic and super tasty. The service was great, we didn't wait too long. My only issue is that is extremely expensive. There are places with similar quality and quantity for 1/3 of the price. read more

The onion kulcha was amazing along with the chicken tikka masala. One of the best Indian restaurants in Cleveland that we have tried so far.

Got delivery and it was phenomenal. The garlic naan was the best I've had. Tandul is consistently good

I just love it here so much. Over the last few weeks when I'm wondering where I should get carry out from, I typically land on Tandul. And I so happen to get the SAME thing everytime because it's just so good. My go to order: Samosas Paneer masakali curry Butter naan This will last you approximately two meals. It's freaking AWESOME. As a vegetarian, the menu is so nicely separated- I have absolutely no trouble looking at it because they literally have a giant portion dedicated to vegetarians. I guess the only trouble I have is deciding if I should get the same thing I keep getting or try something new (clearly, I can't stop getting the same thing. So thankful to have such good Indian food by me!!!! read more

Best Indian in Cleveland. Everything is authentic and tasty. You can order for pick up or delivery through Uber eats. Highly recommend the butter chicken or paneer masala and samosa chat. read more

Great food, but super slow service! I came here with my friends about a month ago, and we were craving Indian food. This place is relatively new, and we decided to try it. The place served some crunchy-type of bread with a green sauce and red sauce. It was a nice filler for the time being. The food we did order was very good and amazing! The portion size was humongous that almost all of us could have taken it home for a second meal later that day. The service was awfully slow. This place took a long time for us to order and then for us to receive our food. I felt bad that one of my friends didn't get her food until like 10 minutes after the rest of us did. And then it took a while for us to get the check. This place was incredibly slow. Overall, the food was great! I recommend coming here for the food, and if you dine-in, I hope the service is faster for you. read more

Picked up dinner from here and everything was ready and still piping hot when we got home!! We had the chicken biryani, aloo gobi, chicken tika masala, butter naan, and of course mango lassi! I would have to say the aloo gobi and mango lassi are a must!! The mango lassi was so rich and mango flavored!! And the aloo gobi made me wonder how I have been cooking cauliflower wrong my whole life!! The chicken biryani was a good spice level, definitely got a kick to it! I thought the chicken in the chicken tika masala was a bit dry and sparse (gravy ratio was wayyyy out of proportion) but was still very tasty. Overall the food tasted fresh and quality! Would be back for some paneer and more mango lassi!! read more

Best in NE Ohio...I've been to India 14 times; the food here is like coming home. I'm vegetarian, so here are a few recommendations: Chile Paneer appetizer (wow), Kaju Curry, Palak Paneer, Gobi Manchurian, and Garlic Naan. I've tried all the other Indian restaurants... many good ones, but this is my favorite! The new owners have elevated the food another notch. The ambiance is okay but comfortable. The service is attentive and helpful. Enjoy! read more

Highlights are their Starters(Chilli Paneer, Samosa Chat) &Garlic Naan. I ordered Paneer masakkali as recommended chefs special.. it's actually NOT RECOMMENDED, its a bland dish(no taste and flavor).. Good service and ambience. Will try again read more

Great food, and quick takeout! I've never dined in here before, but hope to one day. I am a returning takeout customer and absolutely love to order the butter chicken, garlic naan, and samosas. I've never been disappointed with a meal from here. Can't wait to come back! read more

This restaurant has been in our Indian restaurant rotation over the past few years. We typically make it out 3-4 times a year. Upon dining here tonight we noticed something was off but couldn't put our finger on it. We later learned that the place is under new management as of a few months ago and they now have one of the original chefs from our favorite restaurant closer to home, Paradise Biriyani Pointe! That's it! The flavors at Tandul were slightly different and much improved from before. Before, the food was hit or miss depending on which dish you tried. Now, everything coming out of the kitchen was fab. Fun fact. There is a hidden menu item that was on their original menu that is no longer listed but you can still order it upon request. It's called a Bombay omelette and it's like an appetizer. It tastes good with naan. Hubby loved the new and improved Goat biriyani. Sadly, I only got a few pics tonight because the fam went to town. We'll definitely try to make it out here more often now that the food has improved! This is my number 2 favorite Indian restaurant. read more

This tremont staple always delivers. The afghani lamb chops were out of this world; Fresh, cooked to perfection and came out on a sizzling platter. Goat masala was flavorful and the requested spice level was accurate. Also a few Indian beers on the menu which is a nice touch Little bit expensive compared to comparable Indian restaurants in the area but I've never had a bad meal here read more

My friend and I came here a couple days ago & wow the food was great. We got pretty lucky & there was parking right out front but Tremont is notorious for having no parking so don't be that guy who "had no idea" yes, yes you did Karen. The restaurant is super cute & kinda homey vibe. The staff were super sweet & we were seated immediately. The service overall was a tad slow but they were handling at least 3 carry out orders every couple minutes so it didn't bother me. The sauce was great & chicken was cooked perfectly. Lots of flavor & a great texture with just enough spice (we ordered an 8 to be conservative). Also pretty big portions so we could easily take food home. I'd 100% go again because the area in general is one of my favorite parts of Tremont. read more
