Reviews for Tarka Tandoori in San Jose, CA
Overall just okay. The palak paneer and garlic naan were good, but that was it. The butter chicken had no flavor and was... bland. The goat briyani was below average, not very good. The tandoori cauliflower was flavorless. Read more
We have been a regular customer and had come to realize the dry tandoori items are really good as compared to their curries. BUT... yesterday's experience left a sour taste. We went for the lunch special and it was horrible. The samosas were out of the freezerand fried and I know of this as I reached the middle of the samosa & it was still frozen!? Now the Thali, it was Old Stale foodreheated ..how you get the feeling when curry is reheated, its lost its texture, become dry and tad bit saltier. Exactly! TheNaan was thick & chewy. It'll be a long time till we go back here again :( Read more
Freshly made food served very gracious hosts. Warm and welcoming place for comfort Indian food.
So good! The butter chicken, tandoori vegetables and garlic naan were the best I've ever had and will definitely be ordering... them again soon. Service was very fast and steaming hot. Everyone was very friendly. It's not a formal restaurant (notablecloths, dishes are simple) which surprised me at first but then added to the charm/atmosphere. Read more
Its a family run place. The people are very nice but unfortunately the food we ordered was not. It was a simple mixed vegetable... sabji but not well made. There was hardly any gravy and it was bulked up with sweet corn. The taste was okay. The noodles weordered were severely overcooked and absolutely tasteless with hardly any veggies. Service is good.
