Tried out food at Tandur on our way from Kentucky to Atlanta. My husband and I are very glad we chose this place.Loved the menu, and the options. We all tried rice bowls. They were good and big meals.Their crispy okra and tacos are the BEST!

Nice place to eat, food was hot, fresh and fast!! Restaurant was clean. Chicken was slightly on the skimpy side for amount, but still an overall great place to eat. Definitely will be returning!!

Food was below average. Staff was very rude. I called & asked closing time before I go. He said 9.00pm. I arrived at 8.25pm. 1st he said only takeaway. After little argument he gave me almost like left over food. @ 8.40 he came to my table to pick up empty plate even I was eating. I left the food & checkout. He didn’t even allow me to use restroom saying we are closed. Horrible experience

My second time there, but first time sitting in, comfy bench seat in the booth, lonely wooden table, great food and ambiance, employees were very helpful with our questions ? we both had tikkia masala and I think ... Chicken kebabs

I have had Tandur Indian Kitchen on my radar for quite some time. While in the area with no ideas, we realized that we were right up the road. Not so familiar with Indian food we really appreciated the ease or ordering off thier menu. We ordered the Kadai and the Kerala Coconut Curry both with Chicken. Both dishes were bursting with flavor. Indian food doesn't lack seasoning or spices that is for sure. The flavors stick with you as well. We really enjoyed both dishes. The ordering process was quick and easy and the employees that we dealt with were awesome. Fast friendly service that serves food of this quality was a win win experience for us. Tandur Indian Kitchen is going in the rotation for us and highly recommended if you haven't tried it.

Great Food, Great Service, Clean Place! When you arrive you are immediately greeted by a friendly employee asking if it's your first time. If it is they direct you to the screen on the wall where you can see pictures of the food by clicking on each item which helps non Indian people like me figure out what to order since I do not know what most of the stuff is otherwise. Dishes full of flavor are sure to please. Samosa Chaat is full of flavor and a little spice to make you smile. Tikka Masala is tasty and an easy go to order as well. Great flavor here for sure! This is also the cleanest Indian restaurant I have ever seen! Private parking lot makes parking easy!

The worst Indian restaurant I have ever dine in. I ordered chicken biryani. They served worst quality with stale fried rice and topping with smallest pieces of left over chicken tandoori. I couldn't eat at all. I will never ever visit this restaurant in my life. I wish I could rate zero and get my money back.

3 stars for the service only! The employees were super friendly but the food was not good for the price. I got my son a small side of rice and chicken(he's 1) and myself the tiki masala with a fountain drink and somehow it came out to $29?!?!? I didn't even like my meal.. I've had Indian cuisine before and this was totally fast food type. Sorry guys.. you're really good at customer service but the food is too much.

Tandur is hands down my favorite lunch spot. They offer a lovely array of American-ized Indian Food in a fast casual atmosphere.If you aren’t sure what you will like and dislike on the menu, the host is happy to help you try their different sauces so that you know you’ll love your selection.My personal favorite is the Chicken Korma with White Saffron Rice and Plain Naan. Their Okra Fries are also a delightful starter that can easily be shared with a small group. Top it all off with a Mint Ginger Lemonade, and you have the perfect lunch.If you are in a hurry or just want to eat at home, their food is perfect for takeout and is thoughtfully packaged for the best possible experience!

This place has been on my wishlist for a long time and it did not disappoint! It is easy to find with plenty of parking, plenty of seating inside and outside, it is very reasonably priced and the portion sizes are perfect. I had the Chicken Biryani and it was delicious! I would highly recommend this restaurant!

I was impressed of how good the food tasted. Took a chance to try it out. I'm glad I did. The server's are very attentive and friendly.

Just okay! The ambiance is very nice but the quality of food is not that great for the price. The kabob was okay, but Biriyani was no we're close to being an authentic Indian preparation - it was just rice stir-fried with Indian spices and few pieces of shredded chicken on top. Will not go back, and will not recommend if you're looking for authentic India food.

The manager was rude disrespectful not recommending this place

The food was great and the prices were reasonable. The service was good and friendly. The portion sizes weren't bad, although perhaps a touch on the small side. The atmosphere was I guess what you might call "trendy", but not really my style. The building looks a bit too much like a fast food restaurant on the outside and inside. I think that's what the kids like these days or something.

We've never been disappointed in Tandur. The food is fresh, delicious, and served promptly. The restaurant interior is modern and cheerful, the staff always helpful. Their ToastTab call-in works well.
