We don't live far from this market and are frequent visitors. It is run by a very nice family who always greet us warmly. They try to carry necessities for the neighborhood and always have my husband's favorite apple juice, which he insists on only getting there. The restaurant is SOOO good! They have a changing array of dishes on their steam tray and you can get large and small bowls with rice, or combo plates with two items, rice, and phenomenal butter naan. They usually have 4-5 choices of meat dishes and 4-5 choices of veggie dishes. Today, I stopped by after work because it was too hot to cook and was craving a little spice. I had the chicken masala and okra and cauliflour. Delicious. The chicken was crazy tender and just the right amount of spice. It comes with some yogurt, tamarind sauce and green hot sauce, with a sprinkling of red onion and cilantro (or parsley?). I could not eat it all because it was a lot and rich, but I am very happy. My hubby got the lamb and the butter chicken. Again, the chicken was super tender and the lamb was from a local farm, Eastside ranch! Everything was wonderful. The samosas are super good, too. Prices are reasonable and the combo plate will absolutely fill you up. read more

I was in a local motel, and didn't want to go out. I found this place on DoorDash. There was a very decent sized menu. I called ahead to ask if I could order my curry mild, and he said oh, they're not spicy. The guy on the phone was very nice. I ordered the spinach chicken. Chicken in a spinach, curry sauce, with rice, red onion and cilantro. I also ordered naan bread on the side. The food came very quickly, and it was amazing! The spinach curry chicken was very good. It was rich, but not overly so. The red onion and cilantro added to the flavor. The chicken was delicious, and very tender. . I loved the spinach curry sauce, it had just enough of a "zip" that I noticed that it was there. Hardly spicy at all. The rice was wonderfully fluffy. The naan bread was very tender, and also had a little bit of a richness to it. The meal also came with three sauces. A yogurt sauce, a green sauce, and a tamarind sauce. The yogurt sauce, I put into the curry bowl, which just added to the flavor, the green sauce was a bit too spicy for me, so I left that one to the side, , and the tamarind sauce I used as a dip for the naan. I really loved the tamarind sauce. It was sweet, and just a little bit tangy. . Just right. Both sauces were extremely good. It was a very generous portion, enough that I had plenty left over for a very nice breakfast. It reheated very well in the microwave in the morning. The price was very reasonable, especially with the fact that I got two meals out of it. I will remember this place. Thank you. read more

TNT Market - Yum! - Grocery Near Me - Willits, California

Delicious Indian food in an unassuming little restaurant tucked in a corner of a grocery store. We had a combo plate with lamb and chicken chili curries. Both curries were incredibly flavorful and packed with chunks of tender meat. The chicken chili was slightly sweet (and not spicy at all, despite the name) and contrasted nicely with the lamb. The plate came with rice, yogurt, and naan, and was a generous portion, enough to be a light meal for two. Service was super friendly. We were offered samples of the various chicken curries as we tried to decide which one to get. read more

I eat Indian cuisine quite regularly and found this place to be a crown jewel!!! Food was absolutely delicious and fresh, complimented by an absolutely wonderful host and owner! Highly recommend you experience, you won't be disappointed!!! read more

This review has been on hold for too long. So on Wednesday I was over the hill for a doctors appointment and a bit of shopping. I was famished on my way home and remembered one of you our amazing friends telling us about an Indian restaurant in Willits... so I had to try it. As I approached there was a ton of kids on break for lunch from school milling about. As I entered I was greeted warmly and looked around. Nestled within this convenience store is a little restaurant. As you can see their menu is copious. Interestingly at this time of a Hindu festival it's all vegetarian/vegan until the 25th, I wasn't daunted in the least. I was given samples and everything from the Dal to the Bhaingan was divine. I had a mushroom dish, cabbage dish and an eggplant to go with my rice and naan. The portion sizes are huge, flavor amazing and service was friendly and professional. Try the tamarind sauce, it is perfection. I recommend that all of you stop in and give them a chance, please tell us what you think. I will be back for their Goat curry . Once again Willits hits a homerun with the diversity of their dining choices. read more

See all

A hidden gem! A small restaurant tucked away inside a market. I ordered the butter chicken & Naan. We were given a few samples to help (complicate) decide what to order. Everything we sampled was AMAZING Can't wait to go back!! read more

I've been coming here for years & the quality of food & care has never dipped. tucked away off Main Street, it's easily over looked, but if you walk or drive by & see it. Go in, even if you don't intend on getting food, get a drink & say hello. The Indian food is the best in Northern California in my opinion. From Vallejo to Redding, I haven't had any better than here. love it! The vibe of the place is like getting a bite at moms house. They welcome you with a smile & are very friendl. Stop by TNT Market if you have time & an appetite! read more

Super good food and amazing, friendly service!!!! Coming back here if I pass through again!!

One of the best Indian food that I had in a while. Staff were very friendly and cared. Really good value for money. I would definitely recommend to check it out if around the area. read more

Incredible service! Jay is super nice and engaging. Amazing authentic Indian food 100% recommend if you happen to be near by or just stopping through. read more

TNT Market - a bag of candy and a bag of jelly beans - Grocery Near Me - Willits, California

If we could give this six stars, we would! All the food is delicious, authentic, feels like home, and the owner/proprietor/chef is incredibly hospitable. He even gave us samples of everything to try. A steady stream of locals coming in and enjoying the food made it feel like a real hometown institution. If you are ever driving on this stretch of 101 - make sure you stop by. I promise you won't regret it. read more

Stunningly good Indian food in this backwater. This is a convience store run by some subcontinental Indians, and it just happens to have one of the best Indian restaurants north of the Bay area tucked into a corner of the store. Food is served cafeteria style, with you picking one meaty dish and two veggie dishes. All were great, and, it seems like on different days he has different dishes on offer. We did not get to try the Naan (it was all out) but he gave us rice and threw in some somosas, which were delicitious. read more

Delicious Indian food with quite a good variety of curries, both veg and non. We had all of the veggie curries that day plus the coconut butter chicken. Our picky toddler loved the mango lassi and is now obsessed with samosas, so a major stamp of approval! Huge portions at a great price. The owner was also very kind. read more

Finally went in today to get some Indian food! The owners were so nice! And they have vegetarian samosas! Which they pile on all the sauces for ya... absolutely awesome! There were 3 veg dishes so i of course got all 3.. its hard finding good veg food out here in the woods! Especially since Noodle House is closed for the virus... Everything was super flavorful and spicy... perfectly spicy no hot sauce needed.. and i put it on everything! Seriously yummy ! read more

Very good food! Helpful staff :) authentic Indian food. Would recommend!! Butter chicken was awesome but the best part was the garlic naan and mango lassi!! read more

I have been neither so surprised nor so delighted by a dining experience as the meal I had at TNT Market last night. At first glance, this place is your standard convenience store, aisle after aisle of daily vittles and once-in-a-while gas station indulgences, plus all the booze and cigarettes you'd ever need. Clean, amenable, but nothing I'd ever get fired up enough to write a Yelp review about. Little did I know, I was in for a 5-star feast of the ages. I showed up in Willits to visit a buddy (Saturday night), who is friends with TNT's owner, Peter. He'd asked Peter beforehand if TNT Market had leftovers from their Friday Night Indian food feasts - which you should attend sometime, you will NOT be disappointed. Peter told us he's going to expand the works to an all-you-can-eat buffet 3 days/week, for the win! Also adding a pizza menu soon - and Peter said he could make it work. So, I was expecting reheated leftovers. What we got was anything but. Peter extended the most gracious hospitality I have EVER experienced at an eatery. This is not an exaggeration. He prepared a full new meal from scratch with 3 full-sized entrees (a chili cheese vegetarian dish, a goat curry, and a chicken curry), along with rice, naan, yogurt dip, a sweet/spicy chutney, and a shredded carrot/walnut/sweetened condensed milk dessert, and a sweet, milky, cheese dessert that defies description. Not to mention, incredible hot chai. In a word: gourmet. I've eaten at incredible Indian places; this was the real deal. I wouldn't go so far as to say it was the absolute best I've ever had, but it was darn close. SOOO excited about the mountain of leftovers. All of this, served on delicate fine china, with gold leaf accents and ornate floral detailing. No, I'm not kidding. Amazing, right?! I've never seen plates so nice, not even in expensive, reputable restaurants. He told us that when he serves the high school kids who come in, they get paper plates. Save the good stuff for customers who are going to treat it with respect and love! I would have been a bit heartbroken if I'd broken any of it - these were pieces from his personal collection. We were the only two people at the store for the most part, sitting at the dinky tables up front, and Peter regaled us with Willits lore and stories of his life and journey to America. He's a kind and delightful person, and I know that he's going to succeed with his plans to expand. When asked about the price, he said, "Pay what you want." What?! Wow. That does NOT happen. Blown away. Don't be mistaken: This is not a full-on restaurant. It's really more of a convenience store. But if you give Peter a couple days notice, he said he's happy to make you a meal because, plain and simple, he and his wife LOVE cooking and being hospitable. Never would I have imagined what was in store. But what a special memory! read more

TNT Market - The feast of the ages! On fine china! At a convenience store! - Grocery Near Me - Willits, California

I always coming to TNT Market, and I especially love this food as well as the staff, this place will always have a special place in my heart! read more

Fourteen years ago, TNT was THE place for lunch-hour shenanigans and after school video game binges. They had a really greasy chicken and onion rings and stuff and they also had Mortal Kombat back when a video game where you could tear someone's spine out was a super big deal. I have no idea what TNT is like now but I imagine (and hope) not much has changed. Next time I'm in Willits I'll have to go by and eat some greasy chicken and play whatever crazy-assed fighting game the kids are playing these days. Then I'll be all "back in my day, we only had THREE HIT combos, and by god we LIKED it that way!" read more

Was surprised to see that Willits has Indian food! Peter, the owner, is very nice and hospitable. It's not a full on restaurant per se, but you can definitely tell they make the food fresh everyday. The goat was delicious and they had a cauliflower and potato side that was to die for! Definitely will be back. read more

I am so happy there is Indian food in Willits and that it's incredible. The owners are very friendly and I definitely get the sense it's authentic. It's a little pricey but better than nothing it Mexican good as an option. read more

Tikka masala is very delicious. The only thing I would say is make it a little more affordable. But other than that it's great!

This place is amazing. The owners are truly nice and the food is even better. They always have 6 or 7 amazing dishes ready to go. So this is the place if you are in a hurry and want amazing Indian food. Did I mention half of those dishes are usually vegan! So great options for vegan vegetarian or omnivores. The menu always changes so it's a fun surprise to see what they have next time. read more

TNT has a small, amazingly good Indian buffet. Menu changes - the other night I picked up fragrant yellow rice, a delicious rich and spicy chicken curry, cauliflower and potato, tamarind and green sauces. There is usually a goat curry, other chicken and meat options of various spiciness, and some sort of vegetarian curry, say chickpeas. You can add samosa and naan. It makes a wonderful to-go dinner, tastes deliciously home made - I can't wait to pick up dinner again. read more

This place has the best fried chicken in Mendocino county, they even have a sign to prove it. I have been eating the chicken for a few years when in in the area and having a craving. Sometime last month I stopped by and saw a sign that said no Indian food until a certain date, so I had to ask and found out someone was out of town so I couldn't wait till they came back. Well today I was in for a treat I got some goat along with some rice, naan bread and some veggies I couldn't even pronounce if I tried. I'm just glad I found Indian food in willits! Next time I'm going for the chicken. read more

The best Indian food I've had in a long time. Spicy and delicious!! Please support this local family business.

I have several friends that highly recommended this place. And I love Indian food, not available here in inland Mendocino County. So was excited to try it out. Maybe we hit a bad day and it was a fluke. But it was pretty mediocre. We had carry out.. between the 2 meals we had Chicken Tikka, coconut chicken, cauliflower and potato , and garbanzos along w rice and garlic naan. Both chicken dishes were nice and spicy but soooooo salty I couldn't taste the spices much, just the salt. Couldn't even really tell the difference, again so much salt it masked other flavors. The chicken had a lot of bones. The cauliflower potato dish was good except the potatoes weren't fully cooked. The green chutney on the rice was good , but such a tiny amount. Like maybe less than a teaspoon. Anyway, I might try it again but wouldn't go out of my way to go there. Please!!! Less salt. We can always add salt but can't pull it out ! read more

The food here is amazing and the owner is super nice. We were visiting Willits for the weekend and pulled up to TNT just as they were locking up for the night. Knowing no other restaurants in town would still be open, the owner offered to open back up! He specially prepared 2 delicious vegetarian dinners for us and even made fresh naan. It was the best meal we had while in town. Such great hospitality. I will definitely be back and highly recommend TNT. read more

Great Indian food on Friday nights! The family that owns it are very friendly & the food is delicious! It's nice having something new in this small town,I only wish they served the Indian food more than once a week! read more

Thursdays and Fridays TNT does Indian food. It's fresh, authentic and home made. The owners, Peter and Parminder are the sweetest people who go above and beyond for their customers. I've showed up after they were sold out, only to have them whip something up from scratch. I eat here every Friday. They always make sure to accommodate their customers. read more

I was skeptical when people told my that tnt started making Indian food on Thursday Friday and Saturday nights. I am beyond glad I went ahead and tried it! The food blew my mind and I went back for lunch the next day. The family in there is so nice and their food is phenomenal. I will definitely be making this a frequent stop and bringing my friends and family. read more

T N T has been a staple of our community for a long time; I'm glad it's still kickin yet I'm disappointed with it's current ownership/management. It is/was always meant to be a neighborhood market and yet not only is it more expensive in most not if all categories than any other market in town, (simple price checks confirm EX: both village markets have way better prices and services in all categories) there are also a lot of scammy fees with debit cards, paying for sauces after already paying ridiculous prices for old subpar food, and then what's with all the tude? It used to be a friendly market. The day shift gal is always rude and acts like she is being horribly put out if you ask her the most basic question. Even if you ask nothing of her she isn't pleasant. Other check out folks are barely better. So you only have the option of paying more, in a rude environment, which the store also smells horrible (what's that about) or you have to go way out of the way to do your shopping... But the Village Market folks are awesome, friendly, good prices and run a clean-ship so often it is worth it. Hopefully T N T will reevaluate some things so we can once again enjoy our neighborhood market, and support this local business owner. I get there are things that go on behind the scenes so maybe all these things can't be addressed; in a neighborhood market I would like to think they can. Prices, if you're not making enough get different distributors, or renegotiate contracts. Why should I pay 11 bucks for a six pack when I can get a 12 pack of the same for 3 bucks more right around the corner? The smell, don't know what it comes from but should be an easy fix; there are a variety of remedies; attitudes; easily fixed. Anyone who works with the public should be able to put on a happy face, that is the nature of the business. Lastly, I can't even begin to wonder why this should have to be mentioned (Regardless of if it is or not it makes your business also seem scammy) put prices, clearly labeled on ALL items. As a retailer, it's your responsibility to let people know what they are paying for products even if your products weren't beyond overpriced. read more
