Best Indian food in Atlanta. The chef and his team know how to cook the meat right. So many others always over cook the chicken, no moisture. Lamb chop are lovely. I asked for Salmon tikka masala, not on the menu, chef made it. It was superb!!

Indian is my absolute favorite cuisine and Tabla was extremely delicious. The doors were open to let in the breeze and the sunlight. Our food was exceptional and so was the service. Loved everything about this place. Had good music too. + really enjoyed seeing the chefs through the window.

This was one of the best dining experiences we have had in a long time. The food was absolutely delicious, our server was wonderful and the atmosphere was a nice blend of night out casual. I would highly recommend Tabla.

Wow. First- the good things- the food was top drawer, other than dessert. We ordered several appetizers and entrees, all were completely delicious. I would definitely order any of those items again. We also ordered 4 different desserts... they were only ok, one was unpleasant. So now for the tough stuff. This restaurant is in a price point where you would not expect wobbly tables and chairs and unprofessional service- and yet, that is what we received. The person waiting on us was also the host, and we had to flag him down over and over to get what we needed, as he was not attentive, at all. We are regular customers of Blue India, but it was my son's birthday and he wanted to try something different. So disappointing. The worst part- when we were finishing up dessert and wine, the server came to tell us to get up because there was another reservation waiting. WHAT???? We were not lingering inordinately. There were open tables all over the restaurant. And even if there wasn't... At this point I asked the bartender to speak with the manager. The bartender wanted to know what was going on instead of getting me the manager. He offered an apology, but after what I told him, he should have gotten the manager. We definitely will not be back. Go to Blue India instead. This place is a complete customer service train wreck.

Ambiance is nice, service is good. Small plates/appetizers are good. But we didn’t like the main dishes. Especially panner tikka, malai kofta was wayyyyy too sweet (my kids kept saying the food smelled like shrikhand like indian sweet) Also server never asked us for the spice level we would like to have. So it was very mild in spice level and that’s not what we wanted.Their food is very very expensive, almost a double of what we usually pay at other Indian restaurants. But we knew that before going there. Wanted to try once. And it’s a last for us. Not because of the money but because of the way food taste, it’s not worth the money for us. Other than that it’s a good place.

Tabla is priced for an opulent dining experience but falls short in delivering it. The service was a bit rushed on a Saturday with several attempts to clear our dinner plates before we were adequately done! The dishes we ordered were overloaded with cream and were delivered within a few minutes of ordering, at the outset perhaps sounds great, but made me realize that everything was already pre-prepared. Drinks were great! I expect a little more for the amount that I'm paying...

I loved the sleek decor of this restaurant and customer service was great. I absolutely enjoyed the Mango Mojita ($6)! It was spicy but also sweet. I could've probably drank three glasses of this beverage in one setting, but I'm sure that would've been detrimental to my health due to all the sugar it had! I ordered the Lamb Biryani ($26) for my main course. I would've been fine with the small portion had the biryani tasted amazing, but it was lacking flavor, including salt and any sort of spiciness. This was the most disappointing lamb biryani I've ever had.
I went to Tabla with my family this past weekend and LOVED it! We ordered an assortment of food, including the crispy cauliflower, garlic naan, parda biryani, tabla kofta, and butter chicken (my personal favorite). The service was also phenomenal, as our server made so many food recs when we couldn't decide between multiple options. The restaurant itself was extremely nice with a great ambiance that really elevated the experience! Overall 10/10 experience I will definitely be back!

Came in as I kept walking by this place and the smells attract you. The decor is nice and simple. The staff was very helpful and seemed to really enjoy working there. We tried a few different dishes and nothing was a disappointment. All the food was fresh and just delicious. This is now my go to Indian restaurant.

The absolute best Indian cuisine we have ever experienced and we are big fans/seekers of it. Unique and familiar dishes— all fresh and delicious. Lovely decor, fabulous bartender and cocktail offerings Service was attentive without being intrusive. My only wish was for less lively and loud music, but all else was memorable. Highly recommend!

Went on a week day for lunch. Ambience was nice. Ordered starters, and main course. Fresh starters came within 10 minutes and it was crunchy and tasty, within few minutes starter plate was empty. Main course was served by the time we completed starters. I ordered vegetable dhum biryani and the taste was quite right for my palate. Service was excellent. Forgot to take the pictures of the food. Highly recommend!Vegetarian options: Good number of starters and main courses for available
