It seems you either love or hate this place and I can't seem to understand why. I've never received bad service. Each time I took friends with developed palates it was a complete hit!
It's worth mentioning that I've had Indian food in several major cities and I consider Cafe Tandoor a forimtable challenger to even the best. Their butter chicken is second to none in my opinion. I like spice and realize that most foreign restaurants Americanize their recipes a little. So I ask that my order has a little more punch
Still, I find scathing reviews.
If yelp allowed partial stars, I'd give Cafe Tandoor 3.5. I think it's seriously worth a try. I suppose it's possible that they have good and (apparently) terrible days but I don't understand how I've managed to dodge the bullet so many times.
