Customer Reviews
I love desi food and have been eating at Tandoori in Des Plaines for years. Overtime there are things that have become disappointing. For one thing the food has become too spicy, and I can handle spicy food, but this is my 2nd or 3rd recent order where they made it too spicy, hard to eat without multiple cups of water. All that water after a meal will give most people a stomach ache! I have told them about it and they just laugh and say "sorry ma'am." They need to learn how to make their marinade mild and then only add extra chili/red pepper after someone asks to make it spicy. Spicy food does not mean flavorful. Before my children could eat their bhiriyani(rice) but now they can't. They have a new cook or different management and fail to understand customer special requests als
I had a disappointing experience with the food. The biryani was undercooked and lacked flavor. We ordered a full chicken kharai, but only received a few pieces, which was frustrating. To top it off, the beef kebab was almost raw. Overall, it was a letdown and not worth the money.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I had an excellent experience at Tandoori Restaurant! The food was full of authentic Pakistani flavor — especially the biryani, tandoori chicken, and Irani chai. Everything tasted fresh and was perfectly cooked. The staff were polite, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. The restaurant was clean, cozy, and welcoming — you can tell they really care about quality and customer satisfaction. The prices are very reasonable for the portion sizes, and the presentation was great too. Definitely one of the best spots in the area for real Pakistani cuisine. Highly recommend to anyone craving flavorful food and warm service!
One of the best places in town. We tried beef haleem. Its taste was 10/10. Due to our good experience of eating haleem. we also ordered beef nihari for home to eat for next day. It was very delicious. I highly recommend this place.
I was in the area and as the name said, I wanted to get my children a good real Tandoori chicken. But it did not taste good. Everything else was good like the naan, mango lassi. Chutney and limes that were given. But the actual chicken we went there for was not good. Somehow we had to eat as we had already ordered. I regretted why I ordered that.
