Tandoori Chef

3.4 / 5 (1819 reviews)

Menu

The place from Hackensack offers 18 different menus and drinks on the menu for an average price of $8.2.

This Indian restaurant offers an uneven culinary experience, ranging from disappointingly overcooked Biryani and dry Tandoori chicken to praised dishes that steal the show. While some customers enjoyed flavorful favorites and generous portions, others criticized the handling of food and lackluster flavors in classic items like samosas and lamb dishes. Service can be hit-or-miss, especially regarding menu knowledge for dietary restrictions. Despite varying opinions, the restaurant has its loyal enthusiasts who relish its improved offerings, making this spot a polarizing yet intriguing option for those craving Indian cuisine.
