This is a beautiful space located in Ybor. Sadly it was raining, but the outside patio will be lovely to visit when the weather is nice. The inside is charming and decorated nicely. We shared the chicken Tikka Masala and chicken saag with garlic naan (of course!). Everything was delicious and we enjoyed the Taj Mahal beer and Rupee IPA with our meal. I definitely recommend getting an Indian beer with dinner! Our server was very friendly and took good care of us - honestly all the staff was really nice. We didn't feel rushed and really were able to enjoy our dinner and conversations before the check came. This will definitely be our local go to for Indian food. The counter was constantly full for to go orders, so we will also plan to order take out in the future too!

Heartbreaking food shortages for wedding catering and poor management - Proceed with caution…read more We chose Flames Indian Cuisine for our multi-day Indian wedding based on the owner's personal assurance that because the restaurant was local, they could not run out of food. Unfortunately, the reality was a bride and groom's worst nightmare. The planning process was incredibly stressful. It took weeks to get a finalized menu or contract, and we weren't even able to settle the payment until the week before the event. Communication was consistently delayed. Despite paying for a 200-person guest count and having fewer guests than contracted, we ran out of food at nearly every event. This was witnessed by our guests, the venue staff, and our wedding planner. When we confronted the owner, he blamed our guests for "eating too much" rather than taking responsibility for under-preparing. He promised an internal investigation and a resolution within a month. It has now been three months, and despite numerous follow-ups, he has completely ignored our attempts to resolve this amicably. In Indian weddings, food is a pillar of the celebration. To have our guests waiting 10+ minutes for refills that never came was embarrassing and a clear breach of our contract. I would strongly advise any couple to look elsewhere if you want a caterer who is professional and honors their commitments.

The water tasted very metallic and like straight unfiltered tap water. Our food was very bland - my boyfriend ordered Chicken Tikka Masala (their namesake) and it tasted like campbell's tomato soup.

This is not the original incarnation of Jai Ho From 2013 to…read more2020, they were in a strip mall on Fowler. Unfortunately, the riots in 2020 damaged the restaurant and they were forced to close. They later had a location inside the University Mall food court from 2022-2025. In that location, they added middle eastern food in addition to Indian. I didn't know that they opened this new location. I'm unsure if the mall location is fully closed down. I was browsing Google Maps and saw this one and decided to try it out. In the 2010s, it was my favorite place in North Tampa/USF. They had good flavorful good at moderate prices. When we first moved to Tampa in the 90s, we patronized Taj well into the 2000s. Jai Ho stole the crown and I brought my relatives and friends occasionally. The new location is inside the Oasis Bay Suite hotel. You go into the lobby and walk out and to the left passing the gym. The interior is orange and brown ,divided into halves. I arrived at 620 pm and there were only 2 older gentlemen dining. I ordered a Coke and Chicken Biryani. Pros: Solid service. Clean restaurant. Good prices. The biryani was $14 (It was $13 last time I ate there more than 5 years ago) Cons No physical menu. I was given a sheet with QR code. When asked for my order, they didn't ask the spice level which they used to in the first location. The biryani took about 10 minutes to arrive. It looked fine. However,there was a lack of chicken pieces. I feel like there was 20 percent less boneless chicken than usual. It came with raita ,but it wasn't really spicy. They used to be above average in terms of spice. The biggest problem was that a lot of the rice just tasted of ghee and no masala/spices at all. There were very few cooked onions and cilantro. It wasn't bad,but it lost a lot of the fire the old version had. Truth be told, I've lost interest in Indian food in recent years,but I still want to occasionally get a good tandoori chicken or biryani occasionally. COVID took its toll on many Indian restaurants in different ways. There may be growing pains or a new chef,and I hope the meal experience was atypical and can get back to how it was in the 2010s. Overall: Solid but unspectacular Indian food

Be patient as I only saw one person really working the phones, the front, taking orders, refilling drinks, cleaning, etc. A couple of people would come out from the back with food but the waitress/hostess was really working extra hard and with a smile on her face the whole time. Food was delicious. I got butter chicken medium. My kids got mild. My older son ended up sharing my medium because he liked the spiciness and extra flavor. Garlic naan was good. We also got rice pudding. I'm not a fan of any rice pudding but my husband said it was good. They serve fountain drinks that are Coke products. Plenty of parking in the front.

I ended up ordering the Tandoori Chicken Bowl and the particular weekend I ordered it came with a small Butter Chicken Pie as well. The pie was a perfect small portion size for one person and was great. The crust was very flaky and a good ratio to the filling. The highlight of my experience, though, was the Tandoori Chicken Bowl. The combo of the well cooked/seasoned chicken to the rice and tomato/cucumber salad was great. The dressing, served on the side, was a great touch as well. Can't wait to see what the new menu will bring!
