| - We came to this place on a Friday for a late dinner after finding a great deal for a four-person meal on Groupon. When we arrived, we were surprised to find it tucked away in a plaza; rather inconspicuously.
Hardly anyone was in the restaurant, which was a shame because it was excellent. Local places like this one are few and far between.
King Tandoori is an unassuming restaurant both on the inside and on the outside. It seems like the sort of place that you might never find, unless you heard about it from someone else. And although I do think the decor/ambience could probably be spiced up a bit more, the food itself (and the service) shines through and makes up for it.
We ordered four subjis (Shahi Paneer; Dal Tarka; Aloo Gobi; Saag) alongside 3 servings of Laccha Parantha and Onion Parantha, each. Each dish was incredibly flavourful and just the perfect amount of spicy. In particular, we noted that the Shahi Paneer tasted different than other local places, but in the very best way. Nothing that we were served was overly oily, and we left feeling full, happy, and satisfied. While I enjoyed all the dishes, my favourites were the Saag and Shahi Paneer. Additionally, the alcoholic drinks menu is reasonably priced (as is the food for that matter) and I was served a full glass of wine (close to the very top of the cup).
Overall King Tandoori is a place that we will definitely be coming back to - Groupon offer or not. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming; they added an unforgettable charm to the joint. I recommend checking it out, so that you can experience it too.
