Indian Tandoor is likely the best value Indian lunch special out there in San Diego! It's $9.99 for 2 veg entrees with rice and naan (I believe meat is $1 more). The food is well balanced - not oily / greasy + perfect on the spice level as well. The portions are generous. The service is quick, and there's outdoor and inside seating. read more

Indian Tandoor - Lunch Combo (2 Veg Entree Combo) - Indian Near Me - San Diego, California

Was craving Indian food and decided to give this place a try. I ordered their dinner plate, which was under $12 and came with rice, two curries, and naan--definitely seems like a great deal for the price. Unfortunately, I was pretty disappointed with the flavor. While the portion and value were solid, the curries were very bland and lacked the bold spices and depth of flavor I usually expect from Indian food. The naan ended up being my favorite part of the meal--it was the standout on the plate. Overall, great value if you're looking for an affordable meal, but I was hoping for much more flavor. read more

Average indian food buffet presentation. You can choose your items. I got one chicken and one veggie. Only option is plain naan. Food wasn't very warm and Mango Lassi was premade in the cooler. Lassi was ok- had a slight taste like the mango was fermenting from being older. Prob won't come back since there are other indian spots next door that I liked better. Posted prices on menu are different than the actual charge which was annoying. read more

we got the lentil curry and the saag paneer and they were both pretty good. super cheap so can't complain!

So stuffed after eating all the yummy things! We ordered garlic naan, vegetable pakora, gobi manchurian, butter chicken, paneer tikka masala, paneer saag, kheer, gulab jamun, and ras malai. Our order also included a large to go container of basmati rice. There was plenty to feed our family of 5. We ordered mild for everything. The butter chicken was our favorite savory dish. We loved the garlic naan, for obvious reasons (garlic lovers here). The gobi manchurian was a new dish for us. It sounded good so we tried it and happy that we did. It was fresh and flavorful. We hadn't ordered Indian desserts before so we tried a little of everything. Hands down the gulab jamun was the winner! So light, fluffy and soaked in a delicious syrup. I kinda wish there were more but am glad there wasn't because I don't know if I could control myself (ha)! We ordered online and had it delivered. The wait was a little long but that is to be expected at prime dinner time. I can't speak to the service other than how they prepared and packaged the food, both of which were good. The food arrived still hot and ready to go. Overall, I think it was well priced, worth the wait and delicious. We will likely order from here again! read more

First time here and it's delish! Worth it! The tandoori and the Tikka Masala were bomb! The Gulab Jamun dessert was perfectly sweetened while the garlic Naan was devine! We came for dinner and it was not busy so we were helped immediately. Great service and friendly staff! read more

Got the 1 meat and 1 veggie plate with garlic naan ($0.75 extra). The garlic naan wasn't the greatest texture. Seemed a bit too flat. The whole meal cost $10ish which is not bad! I of course wish I got a bit more meat and veggie for it. I know Charminar next door has a nice value lunch special that comes with a soda. If they could do something similar at Indian tandoori that would be nice. Overall wouldn't be opposed to come again. read more

Disgusting and disappointing! Raina sauce was water! This should be a yogurt consistency. We found a large pea sized piece of hard plastic in the lamb saag. Shrimp vindalu was water sauce-supposed to be curry/thick. I called and the manager could care less and said "next time you order we will do better" I said I will never order Indian from there again. read more

We've eaten here several times and have always enjoyed the food from their cafeteria style dishes. Wonderful curry or korma dishes with and without meat. What's best are the prices...very very affordable like $10-12 for two main dishes and rice. Combos also include Naan ($0.75 more for garlic...and worth it). They are next to another Indian restaurant but we like it better (as do SDPD and the Sheriffs). They offer lots of other freshly made dishes and I look forward to trying the Chicken 65 and Chilli Chicken soon. read more

Great budget option if you're craving Indian food for lunch. It's cafeteria style but the there are a lot of options and they're all delicious. For the amount of food you get on the lunch combo, it's hard to find a better deal elsewhere in Mira Mesa! read more

Hey it's Stew and I'm back with an updated review of my go-to Indian restaurant. Indian Tandoor has been in this great location for over 20 years, and now has a fresh new look! Come on in and see the beautiful open interior with an expanded new menu. Some new items with our old favorites still around! As always great offerings and great service for quick sit down dinner, a quick grab and go, or even catering for a party (I've done them all). Mr Singh and his staff are the kindest most generous people who know through food & spice how to set you on the path to food nirvana! Suggested dishes: 1) Butter Chicken 2) Tikka Masala fries (or even ask for Shrimp Masala fries) 3) Gobi Manchurian Enjoy read more

I go here like every other day. This is highly recommended there is healthy food you just grab and go or you can order something they can make in the back. Currently my favorite spot really good food and good priced. Nice people that work there! read more

Wow tasty authentic Indian food! Hard to find in San Diego and great price. Love!! Will be back

I go here ALL the time. Absolutely love the food and the workers. And a super great price!

Pretty good pricing for lunch and dinner. We usually get the dinner set which is 2 items, with rice, salad and naan. It used to come with a dessert but I think they stopped doing that. It's around $9. I like the chicken tiki masala cuz I'm basic. LOL I also tried something with eggplant that was pretty flavorful, but not as good. I think some of the items are a little older but regardless still tasted pretty good. I'll be coming back if I want something hearty and flavorful for lunch/dinner. If you check in you get a free samosa! :D read more

The Tandoori Parathi was hot and fresh. The bread had loads of flavor and combined with the chicken dish really well. I used to not like Indian food as a kid but this place really made me like it. 100% recommend coming here. read more

Not on the same level as Punjabi Tandoor, but not bad. Unlike Punjabi Tandoor, where you get to select the curries for your combo deal, here you have to pick whatever is sitting in the warming trays. The mushroom & alu and chicken curry were both delicious, but nothing out of the ordinary. The soft and chewy naan was the definite highlight. I think it's a little weird that the salad that they give you doesn't come with dressing. If you want dressing then you have to pick the raita, which means you don't get the kheer dessert. (You can only have raita or kheer.) The one meat and one veggie combo deal for dinner is a good deal at around $9. read more

Worst Indian food ever. Chicken butter was tasteless and watery. Chicken biryani was not tasty as if they just added biryani powder into already cooked rice. Naan wasn't cooked well. Pokhara was just potatoes. read more

This is a wonderful choice for a quick inexpensive lunch. For both plates of food, it was only $20. Food quality was good but flavor was slightly lacking. The service was quick and the outdoor seating was a pleasant way to spend lunch. If you're looking for something quick and simple, not a bad stop but there are definitely other options in the same food court if you're looking for something different. read more

I got the entree plate with butter chicken and garlic naan. I got half rice and half lettuce for my base. I wish they gave more chicken, but the flavor was so delicious. They also gave a side soup which included lentils or beans, but it was delicious either way. I would come here again because the workers were pretty friendly. There are a lot of options too and the service is quick. This place is pretty small and behind a bigger indian restaurant, but this is better in my opinion. read more

Indian Tandoor - a plate of food and a cup of soup - Indian Near Me - San Diego, California

I've enjoyed going to this place in person so did a delivery order during COVID. Dal shorba: extremely delicious. Fresh ginger. Big portion for $5. Really good. But I'm sorry to say that the saag paneer (this was ordered in the evening) was not as fresh - nor was the garlic naan. I had indigestion later from the meal. I've really liked this place but maybe the saag had been sitting around for a while? Too bad, since the dal shorba was delicious - one of the best lentil soups in town. read more

Amazing food for the price point. I just loved the flavors!!!!!! I will be back here in the future.

Delicious, well prepared for takeout and very kind! I ordered...Lamb biryani, Shrimp Saag and garlic naan. It was each very flavorful, moist and delicious!! read more

didnt look like much on doordash, but i was rlly hungry and desperate so i decided to give it a try. IM SO IMPRESSED! the garlic naan here is probably the best ive had. they put ACTUAL moist garlic pieces on here and it is FULL of flavor. the chicken in the tikka masala was very good too. one thing to keep in mind though: the medium tikka masala was not spicy at all, so if you want a kick to your masala, i'd recommend getting spicy. read more

Simply amazing, great service, great food, nice outside area to seat at and eat during lunch break. The prices aren't bad either and the food is always fresh. I have gone during my lunch and had to wait about 5-10mins but it is so worth it. You can also call ahead to avoid the wait and save lunch time. Plenty of parking available, as they are inside a little plaza's food court. I totally recommend this place. read more

I'm super new to Indian food because I have a weak tongue for spices. But this place is delicious! I got the lunch special of chicken tikka. It did not disappoint. There is a slight spice but nothing to unbearable especially to someone as sensitive as I am. The garlic naan is thin and has the right amount of garlic and warmth. Tastes like it's fresh out of someone's moms kitchen. I'll definitely be back! Cute little location with some outdoor seating, recommend ordering and picking up especially if you enjoy hot warm comfort food from home. read more
