June 7, 2025 review ---…read moreWe visited this place with our friends and got paneer Pulav, rava dosa, poori aloo. We never had Pulav here before but thought of trying because it was listed as new item. My husband was craving for poori so we got the poori aloo and ofcourse, rava dosa is one of the best here so we didn't want to miss that. We got poori pretty quick and were told that other items were coming pretty soon. Rava dosa came after in few mins but it was soggy and cold. You can tell that it's not just came out of tawa. It looked like an old order to me. I asked to call the manager and told about dissatisfaction with rava dosa. He first tried to defend, then I asked him to touch and tell and if it's fresh. He said he will get it replaced and get a fresh one coming. Ofcourse that took 15-20 mins to come. Paneer Pulav was good. Not too spicy and it came with yogurt to balance. Rice was also sticking to each other so it looked like paneer biryani to me but ofcourse very balanced spices version. My friend also ordered the veg keema Pulav but I like the paneer one more. Service can be hit or miss so I'm reducing one star but overall good quality is good. Also when I visited this back in June, they had the buy 2 Pulav at a certain price offer going on. We looked at it later and checked that out cheque had individual priced for each Pulav. Manage gave the reason as we ordered two in 15 mins gap. He later offered us the balance as courtesy but we didn't take it. I think this should have been accounted while creating the cheque in first place. Overall good place for vegetarian south Indian food.

The food is great. It's a real shame I never want to go back…read more Saturday night, prime dinner time, the place is all but abandoned. Despite that, service is plodding, slow and inattentive. The appetizer was served last, and it wasn't even piping hot, as if they had just made it. You only get one tiny 8-ounce plastic bottle of warm water to drink, unless you go out and grab another one out of the pack in the other room. That said, the dosa is excellent, textures and flavors on point. Onion pakoda are crave-worthy, crispy and well seasoned. The spices are bright and bold, unrestrained, and deeply satisfying. It's fantastic that so many options are vegan as is. Unfortunately, the issues with payment was the final straw. I had a coupon that seemed to completely flummox the poor guy, and while fumbling with my phone, executed the transaction with Google pay, which is not at all how I wanted to pay. He "couldn't" refund it, for some reason. It makes me so sad. Seems like a great, family-run place with excellent food. I won't be revisiting.

This place is right around the corner so I decided to give it a whirl…read more I ordered online, and got there to pick up at the time it said it would be ready. There was one customer waiting, and not another person. I waited about ten minutes. My son loves chicken Tikka masala, so we ordered him some. It is spicy. I'm into a moderate spice, and this is burning my lips as I type. There was no option when ordering online to determine level of spice so we weren't ready for that. Beyond the spice the chicken was tough, so even if the spice was toned down the chicken wasn't great. The tandoori chicken is nice and flavorful and tender. $17 for three drumsticks and two thighs might be a bit steep. Overall not an overwhelmingly good experience.

I went to Tamarind Indian Cuisine on the last day of my Daniel Fast. A Yelp friend suggested that…read moreI try the Marsala dosa, which had potatoes and peas inside. Quite honestly, it was better than the onion dosa...more filling. The Marsala dosa was not as crisp on the outside with folded ends. The potato and peas mixture was fragrant and perfectly seasoned with spices. I savored every bite. This meal was so enjoyable to eat. My server was very attentive bringing me a menu to the table and offering me water to drink. She was very friendly and personable. Only one person came into the restaurant while I dined there. He was getting his food to do. Otherwise, it was extremely quite with virtually the entire restaurant to myself. I was having a early lunch. Overall, very chill environment.

We went to this restaurant and immediately observed how busy this place was. The food was amazing, the service was good and the ambiance was great! We do not have a restaurant like this in Southern California, but we wish we did. Yes, there are many Indian restaurants in Southern California, but non like this one. Every time we come to Texas, they will be definitely be seeing us. Keep up the great work.

We've heard great things about Sangam Chettinad from a friend and recently saw them on Infatuation…read moreAustin's Top 25 Restaurants, so we finally went to see what all the hype was about and WOW! We've had really good food at other Indian restaurants before, but sometimes the service, atmosphere, or cleanliness can be a little hit or miss. Sangam seriously stood out because they delivered on ALL of it. They were BUSY, like a shit ton of people waiting outside busy , but somehow that didn't affect the quality of the food, speed of service, or cleanliness of the restaurant. Our food came out quickly, everything was fresh, and the whole place still felt incredibly well run. Our waitress Mandipa was AMAZING. She was attentive, patient, never made us feel rushed while ordering, and helped guide us through the menu since so many of the dishes were new to us. And the FOOD... the flavors and cook on everything were what really separated this place from others we've tried. The mutton was incredibly well seasoned, tender, and easily one of our favorite dishes. The chicken was cooked perfectly, and our shrimp dish actually had a solid amount of shrimp, all plump and cooked just right. The garlic naan was LOADED with garlic in the best way and stayed soft and fluffy throughout the entire meal, which is surprisingly rare, plus most places never put enough garlic. We ordered everything medium spice and were honestly impressed that the spice level actually matched what we expected. It had the perfect amount of heat to make you feel it, but not so much that it covered up the flavor. We LOVE spice, so it was refreshing to have "medium" actually bring some heat while still letting all those spices and ingredients shine. If you're sensitive to spicy just note, it might be a little hot for you, depending on what you order. The daily special benne dosa was another standout, crispy, buttery, and the sauces served with it were OUTSTANDING. Even dessert surprised us. The Carrot Halwa topped with ice cream was phenomenal and the perfect way to finish. Every dish had such developed, layered flavor like it had been cooking forever soaking up all those spices and fresh ingredients. This has officially been added to our favorite restaurants in Austin, and we can absolutely see why Infatuation Austin rated it one of the Top 25 restaurants. Hands down the best Indian restaurant we've been to to date. We just moved to Leander, so we're VERY excited they're opening a location closer to us. Highly recommend!

I'm now obsessed. This was the best chai I have ever had and well I'm not a newbie to Hyderabad style cuisine. Of course the food was absolutely amazing, and beautifully presented. Sangam Chettinad seems to be getting a lot of social media attention, and if you think that place is great, your mind will change when you eat here! Fresh roses on the tables also upped the ambiance. Go here!

The chicken 65 was still as good as I remembered except the side of rice was really strange. It was DRY! Not as dry as raw rice. It was definitely cooked and then it seems like it sat out for a long time and got dehydrated. I was really turned off by the rice. I don't even know why I packed it to go. I regret tainting my chicken 65 by putting it in the same to go box. :( I'll be trying a different place next time.

I have tried a variety of their vegetarian items and have fallen in love with all of them (malai kofta and methi paneer being some of my all time favorites). The price is a great and I can easily split my entree into two meals. I do wish they had some chaat on the menu but that is just my North Indian roots talking. I've also noticed that their online ordering system doesn't allow for spice modifications. In my house, everything is spicy so it's slightly frustrating that it can't be adjusted to make it spicier but we enjoy it as is as well.

The food comes quickly so the wait is not long. When you sit down they present you with a bottle of water and a chip as an appetizer. The place has several tvs playing Indian drama and music.

According to a close friend, Safran Austin located on Far West Boulevard, is especially known for being the first in Austin to feature a dedicated Nepalese menu I was not very hungry so I ordered the Chicken 65 (spicy deep-fried chicken with tomatoes, curry leaves, and ginger) ...a South Indian specialty. The chicken nuggets were doused in a flavorful curry seasoned and they were super moist and fresh tasting. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming. My server, Dipka, was kind and helpful. She offered me water to go as it was pretty hot outside...nice touxh. There are a plethora of vegetarian, vegan, and halal offerings. Looking forward to returning and exploring more menu items...

The restaurant is always clean, the atmosphere is relaxing, and the Indian music playing in the background creates a calm, authentic dining experience. The staff is incredibly friendly, attentive, and always happy to accommodate your preferences. I've enjoyed everything from the saag paneer, salmon, and a variety of curries to the chicken tikka masala and butter chicken. Every dish has been rich, flavorful, and consistently satisfying. The butter chicken is especially smooth and comforting, while the chicken tikka masala is packed with bold, well-balanced flavor. If you're someone who loves spicy food, they don't hold back! I usually order spice level 5, and trust me--it brings the heat, so order accordingly! I need to come back and take updated photos because it's been a while, but if I still lived on the south side, this would absolutely still be one of my regular restaurants. Highly recommended!

Portions are very generous and can easily have enough for 2-3 meals. The rice was nice and fluffy and the sauce was very rich in flavor.The Vegetable Pakora was by far the favorite.
